So Arrow has Oliver telling people about the Island, Flash needs people telling Barry they're actually from Earth 2.
Oliver: Diggle, I need you to tell you something."

Diggle: "For gods sake, no, Oliver!"

Oliver: "I was on the island... on another earth."

Diggle: "I knew my recent no-killing rule would bite me in the ass."

I would laugh so hard if Arrow revealed Lyla kid was Diggle's, but Earth Two Diggle's. So you had a love triangle between the two Diggle's and Lyla.

Like I said, this will happen in season 6.

Oliver: Holt, I need to tell you something because Diggle died two years ago.

Holt: For gods sake, no, Oliver!

Oliver: Five years ago, when you thought I was back in Starling City, I was on the island...on another Earth.

Holt: Oliver, that doesn't even make sense.

Oliver: Time passes differently there, or something.
 
I like that Barry had all these strategies thought up to beat Zoom (the lightning, running up into the air to negate the speed advantage) and it did absolutely nothing.

Yeah, I appreciated Barry planning out a fight strategy. Most superheroes in TV/film kind of wing it once it gets down to fighting.

lol

Can't wait for Ollie to reveal he drowned and got picked up by Aquaman's people.
 
Jesus.

Barry got paraded around the city like it was Weekend at Bernie's.

Was partly expecting him to do a ventriloquist act at the lab and make Barry say:

"Hey, Harry, remember when you said my plan didn't have legs? I guess you were riiiiiiiiiiight."
 
The greatest direction the next episode could take is Barry letting out King Shark to fight Grodd.

I know it won't happen at all, ever, just let me dream it for a week.
 
Jay must be feeling real vindicated right now.

I wonder how tf he was able to withstand Zoom for so long if Barry is faster than he ever was. Does Zoom absorb speed from other speedsters to make himself even faster?
 
Flash was up against The Voice last night, too. It was a 2-hour show. They are also airing another episode tonight, so Arrow or Supernatural will have to deal with it, too.

I'm going with that assumption. I'm guessing when he stole Garricks speed he absorbed it which in turn made him faster.
 
It's weird to see people missed the real bombshell from last night's episode: they have Android phones on Earth-2.
 
Honestly, Barry/Zoom fight was too similar to the RF fight from the first season.

I would have preferred something different, a speed battle where Barry realises he's nowhere near fast enough to beat this guy. A straight beat-down was always going to be too predictable.

RF didn't drag Barry's body around just to humiliate Barry. I mean damn talk about getting your ego knocked down a few pegs.
 
Another very important thing: Who are the Flash's friends?
Imagine Zoom goes in there blind, wrecks Barry and is all "Haha man this was easy" and then some Metahuman he never heard of shows up and just stomps him in 2 seconds because he attacked his "Best Friend the Flash".

Firestorm is sorely missed.

When Zoom was boasting of his defeat of the Flash I almost wanted him to say "Look at Subzero, now Plainzero!!!".

Harry-2 mentioned that Zoom was getting faster and stronger on Earth-2. So either Jay's speed had pumped him up or he's been killing other speedsters in the mean time.
 
If Zoom is E2 Henry then he did his son from another world dirty. It seems like most people would have some feelings about not only beating the shit out of your 'own' kid but taking his body around town as a trophy.

He might be like Barry in that his top speed increases over time.
 
I agree with this, but then what was the finger jab for? Was it supposed to be a killing blow that Cisco interrupted?
He was going to suck up his speed I think.

Maybe there is no Earth-2 Barry? Or Reverse Flash kills kid Barry?

This was something different. This was something worse.

It wasn't just a beatdown, it was a complete emasculation. Barry got embarrassed in front of his friends, girlfriend, his surrogate father, the cops, and the media - all before getting (for the time being) crippled (again, in front of friends). Zoom dragged him in front of the people who trust in him most - citizens, public, police - and basically told all of them that Barry ain't shit.

Add to the fact that the fight also proved that Barry wasn't fast enough to beat him/Zoom's speed is on another level.

The Flash S2 |OT| Weekend at Barry's

Shame they already established this Earth as Earth-1 because that would have been perfect otherwise.

"Wells, here's your Flash Earth-0... now plain zero!"
 
Might be being dumb here, so sorry in advance.
Earth 2 Wells said he created Zoom, right? Has he not elaborated on that at all? Or was Zoom just another meta from the particle accelerator?
For some reason I keep thinking that Wells knows who Zoom is but just hasn't told anyone, like, Zoom was his friend in STAR labs or something.

Maybe E2 Barry is in jail (alluded to in the glimpses during the season finale) for his mother's death. That would keep E2 Henry from having pause to wreck Barry's shit.

what did ZOOM stab barry with?
Well, two of the inhibitor syringes to temporarily sever him from the speed force and his own finger, possibly as the killing blow or to try and slice his spinal cord.

Either Zoom was created by the particle accelerator explosion like all the other E2 Metas or he was created by an earlier experiment. I'm thinking the latter because it was alluded that E2 Wells has been trying to "advance humanity" in different ways before the particle accelerator.
 
With Barry revealing himself to Linda, I really hope the show doesn't go down the Arrow route.

At first, I was kinda lukewarm on this episode. The goofy Linda stuff really wasn't for me. But then Zoom showed up. I really don't want to spend too much time on nitpicking this time, because good God. The last 10 minutes made this episode amazing. Zoom is absolutely terrifying. Just brutal. Him catching Barry's lighting bolt with his bare hands was a thing of beauty.

How can they portray such good villains, when other shows fail so miserably in comparison?

They have some suck-ass reporting, too. You have a live feed, showing the victim's phone receiving a call from "Daddy," with a picture of world famous Harrison Wells on it, and you still don't know who the victim might be?

I think Linda will go back to Earth 2 to be a good Dr Light. Unless they make her a regular. Or she dies.
 
What a bunch of boring filler and terrible comedy (loved cardboard Cisco tho) with those last awesome 10 minutes, its kinda stupid that they didnt commit to kill Linda since Barry will get his legs back eventually, so their first encounter with Zoom will probably dont have any permanent consequences.
