Kinda like Zoom more, and hate Barry more.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
"You know, Barry, we really are the Flash."
I like that the big divide between Jesse and Wells was that Wells killed someone to save her. And in this episode Jesse aides in the death of grey to save wells.
Also enjoyed Wally demanding a meeting then right before it asking Joe "What do I say", although this makes some sense since he just wanted to fanboy out.
Fairly weak episode but an interesting stinger.

I do hope Wells eventually goes, "Look, the guy was a fucking serial killer. I did everyone a favor."
This had been a pretty good season but it's just run out of steam now as we walk towards the finale next month. Like what's left? Barry gets his speed back next episode, we dick around for another villain of the week, the setup for the finale, then fight Zoom?
Jesse shrieking at Wells because HE KILLED A MAN and I'm like who gives a flying fuck? You're alive after being hunted/captured by an unstoppable speed demon.

I like how they handled Zoom's origins and character, but I hope they explore them even further. I want the writers to show that he's what Barry could become, how his life tranformed him to who he is and that he's a bad guy, but he has a reason and maybe a twisted good side, like he loves Caitlin, but he wants to keep her against her will.
I get that we have seen the above, but I want more.

I was able to follow this thread last night, so I'm not sure what the general consensus is BUT... I thought it was a massive improvement over the previous episode. I mean, clearly didn't fix the Jay/Zoom mess, but Zoom phasing through Caitlin was a baller moment. The only really dumb thing that pissed me off was Caitlin being so stupid and gullible when she met Killer Frost.
The end bit with Harry talking about setting off another particle accelerator is pure hype. Presumably that's where Wally and maybe even Jesse get their speed from, plus a whole crop of new villains for next season. After watching the DC Animated movie Flashpoint I was curious why recreating the conditions that gave Barry his powers in the first place wasn't the first thing they did. So in that sense this episode kind of felt like stalling a little bit.
I gotta hand it to Teddy Sears, he's much more interesting as crazy ass Zoom than boring ass Jay Garrick.
ALSO: Cisco, can you hurry up on Diggle's new helmet PLEASE?!??!

You gotta admit: he really found a way to her heart.

This episode is a nice change of pace, but Jessie´s intelligence is way too convenient.
And you said Jessie won´t be back anytime soon lol.

You know if we reduce Zoom down to just his gifable moments, he's kind of incredible.

Wait, is Quick actually Jesse's last name? Or when Harry called her "Jesse Quick" was that just a nickname??

Just a nickname
Nickname.

Indeed, on that part they deliver very very much.

Thank god. That would be a little too on the nose.
That said, Johnny Quick is a goalie in the NHL, so it's wouldn't be unheard of.
Is there not anymore rooms in Star Labs so the father and grown up daughter can maybe not sleep right next to each other?

You guys have got to let this incest thing go. It doesn't exist!

Crap episode.
I don't give a fuck about Jesse and her dad, nor was that metahuman guy interesting. Only the little we saw of Zoom piqued my interest.

I felt like that guy was a Smallville villain. He seemed oddly familiar.
They gave is Thea and tommy, and Barry and Iris.
Adopted kids are real family.
Wasn't there an episode where Lana and Clark found a baby that grew to adulthood really quickly? What a weird episode.

He was great before the reveal, though he was incredibly shallow.
Barry isn't even adopted.
+1 kid probably had a childhood crush on Iris around whenever he was taken in (when he was 8-10?)

I was rewatching last week's episode and seeing a man in the Jay Garrick outfit assault his wife just felt wrong.
Also, I really want that Big Belly Burger poster.

Doesn't matter, he was raised by the West family. It's creepy.
That is just papers, not feelings.

No GIFs of Caitlin's reaction to Zoom coming back to Earth-1. Shame on you, thread.
Jay Garrick is Purple Man
I definitely got Purple Man vibes from Hunter Zolomon last night.
This?
Hello darkness my old friend
This?
I know he's just going to try to conquer Earth-1 but it would've been cool if he actually waged war across the multiverse.

End of the season, when she leaves to become the Flash of Earth-2.
This?
Yesssssssss.
