Comic book fans are patiently waiting for Wally West to get his speed force powers as well. In addition, Iris and Barry have had a tough time getting together, but now, it seems Iris is ready to take the next step forward, since they're both single at this point. He's always been a great support for the Flash when he's been in need, but he may be even more help in the field if learns to control his new powers. Cisco is moving forward and learning to use his powers. This was also a big episode for the supporting cast as well. The audience has an understanding of why he is the way he is now. What this episode did extremely well is make Zoom a three-dimensional character. Zoom tells Barry "you wouldn't believe me if I told you," so hopefully, that will be explained in the upcoming episodes. One major thing that isn't explained is the man in the iron mask that Zoom had locked up on Earth-Two. It's easier to raise your suspension of disbelief, smile, and nod because this is a show about people with superpowers. Frankly, the whole "time remnant" concept on the show is poorly explained. So how is Hunter still around if his past self is dead? It's called a "time remnant." He just exists, and his past-self dying has no effect on him because he's technically not from the future where he died. "Jay" was working with Hunter to steal the Flash's speed and was fine with dying because Hunter's plan was so inspiring. Hunter Zolomon explains to Barry and the rest of the STAR Labs team that the person was actually him, from the past.

Well, strap in because while everything is explained, it's still a confusing ride.

However, Iris doesn't go through with it. This is the first time she's been on a date since her fiance, Eddie, died in the first season. Iris has a big date with her editor at work. Towards the end of the episode, Cisco finally opens up a breach to the other world, allowing the Flash to fight Zoom. Harrison Wells gives Cisco a pair of glasses, much like Reverb wore, in order to channel into his powers. He wants to use his powers to open a breach to Earth-2, but he can't do it on his own. Currently, Cisco's powers aren't at the same level as his doppelganger, but he's working at it. On Earth-2, Cisco faced Reverb, who was that Earth's version of Cisco. During a session, Hunter tapped into the speed force for the first time and gained his super-speed. Hunter was sent to a mental institution where he received electroshock therapy. However, his past traumas came back to haunt him, and Hunter ended up becoming a murderer, taking 23 lives on his Earth. When he was younger, his father, who was a hero on Earth-2, killed Hunter's mother right in front of him. Zoom, whose real name is Hunter Zolomon, didn't have an easy childhood. Warning: There are some spoilers ahead, for episode 18, "Versus Zoom." This week, everything about Zoom's notorious plan is revealed, including who Zoom actually is and his disturbing past. In a previous episode, it was revealed that Zoom was either Jay Garrick or a doppelganger of Garrick, from another parallel Earth. After taking a two-week break, The Flash returns to CW and has Barry Allen and his companions at STAR Labs taking on the season-long villain, Zoom.
