To foreshadow the fact that Hunter Zolomon on Earth-2 has a twin brother named Jay Garrick? Seems more likely to me.

I like both your ideas, it could go either way. But, I'm leaning on the former, so far it's been shown that everyone from either earth has a doppelganger. Though, I don't see how Caitlin's brother could have been taken so long ago as zoom might not have had his speed yet.

Anyway, Zoom is pure evil, I like that. And Wells planning to replicate the Particle accelerator explosion was unpredictable. We'll see where that leads.

So, last night's episode...

Barry's fate...
Wally's fate...
Jesse's fate...
Zoom's fate...

The Man in the Iron Mask wasn't seen but I felt like there were a bunch more clues here as to his identity... Barry's father saying Garrick was his mother's maiden name... In the 99s Flash, Jay was Barry's older brother but was obviously an Allen not Garrick.

Seeing Cisco's brothers alternate and Caitlin...

Only a few more episodes left this season. Hopefully they use them well. Barry seems to be in the Speed Force or at least a TV version of it, maybe.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Ugh. Another episode featuring Barry Allen making idiotic decisions. I really hate the lack of common sense in CW's writing.

Also... now we know where they're going with the Man in the Mask, and I am not happy. Seems very forced. "Maiden name."

Still, the Ramon brothers were awesome and it's great to finally see how Jesse and Wally get their powers.

Zoom killing all those police officers was also pretty neat. I get the feeling that by the end of the season Barry and Iris will get together and we'll hopefully see Bart soon.

Calling it now: Caitlin kills Hunter in the season finale.

Great, we're getting Kid Flash.
Also, isn't it weird that Zoom only tries to control Central City, Not the entire earth? They should show us at least other cities Zoom has under his control.

What else is he gonna do, control Star City? What's the point? Malcolm, Slade, and R'as already leveled it.

But yeah, I get your point. Zoom's plans suck and make little sense.

[Slade]

Ugh! I'm not liking where this seems to be going...

Also, it's totally gonna be JWS as Jay in the mask..

Agreed. Staunchly agreed.

Season Two has had some amazing episodes, but the entire plot revolving around Zoom, his identity, and his plan... all a miserable failure. It really REALLY bothers me.

[TurtleTitan97]

This was hands down one of the best episodes of the series by far. Had some great character development for Barry and, just like the comics, showcases how Iris is just like Barry's lightning rod. And the way the speedforce was utilized was just...wow. I haven't gotten this emotional over a Flash episode in a long time.

They should definitely bring back Kevin Smith to direct another episode. Bring on the next episode.

You can Trust Kevin Smith he is such a Comic Book Fanboy. Next week we see Berlanti and Kriesberg to Laurel Better in one episode than Guggenheim did in 4 seasons.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

This was amazing. It almost makes the terrible logic of "Versus Zoom" and the following two episodes worth it.

So the Speedforce is the Celestial Temple, and the denizens of the Speedforce are the Bajoran Prophets... I can live with this.

[Foombamaroom]

God, this is why the show's so successful. This is one of the only TV shows to legitimately make me cry, and that takes a lot.

As long as Geoff Jones and Kriesberg stay on this show, I think we can expect amazing future seasons.


What's everyone's verdict over Season 2, though? We've only got two episodes left, so I think it's a bit safe to say whether or not you like it more than 1.

Personally, I like 1 just a teeny bit more than 2, but it's like a 99% to a 95% if that makes sense.

I prefer Season 1. The villain was new and original, and his plan made sense.

I've enjoyed Season 2 and loved some of it (King Shark!), but Zoom/Jay/Hunter has just been a mess... also, Barry's decisions to screw around in Earth-2 and to give up his speed for Wally absolutely REEK of poor writing. I thought of successful fixes for those two scenarios that still end up with the exact same results in about ten minutes each.

What's weird is that I enjoy Season 2's individual episodes much more than I did with 1, but I still like the overarching plot of 1 better.

Weird. Either way, this show is leagues above Arrow and LoT.

[Splinter the boss]

Things that I liked
1. The morgue concept, totally love the idea.
2. The puberty talk, it was so awkward and funny.

I thought Iris saying " Barry, come home to me" was too much. It did not feel like something that anyone would say in real life. Maybe it's just me. But, that did not affect the episode at all, totally one of the best for the season.

EDIT: Does anyone know what Caitlin's decision is? I did not see next episode's preview.

I think the quality of Season 1 is more consistent, but some of my single favorite episodes have been in this season: Trickster and Weather Wizard teamup, "King Shark", "Escape From Earth-2", "Flash Back"... oh, and let's not forget "The Reverse-Flash Returns."

Agreed. Legends of Tomorrow could be so much better, and we all know what happened with Arrow.

[Krutch]

Anyone else find the acting a little strange last episode? Not bad, just inconsistent with what's happening plot wise. As far as everyone knows, Barry is never coming back(yes, Cisco had a vision, but there's still a good chance they might lose him forever). But it seemed like after the opening scene or two, everyone was back to joking around and smiling with each other. Especially Iris, who ironically was playing her as likeable as I've ever seen her: Easy going, collected, optimistic with just the right amount of snark. It just seemed out of place in this episode considering the stakes. Maybe it was just me?

[TurtleTitan97]

Afraid it might be, mate.
