The Flash Season 2: 13 WTF Moments From 'Enter Zoom'

A pretend villain and the ominous arrival of uber-rogue Zoom take centre-stage in one of The Flash's very best episodes yet!

By Andrew Pollard / November 13, 2015

Enter Zoom was the best episode of The Flashs second season so far, and is up there with the very best episodes of the show to date. Well, apart from the one or two facepalm-inducing moments, but Ill get to them in a bit. As the title suggests, we were given our best look yet at Season 2s uber-villain, Zoom. And whilst we got to get a good look at this rogue, poor Barry Allen got to feel Zooms power up close and personal as this twisted speedster from Earth-2 unleashed an almighty beating on our famed Scarlet Speedster. Before that, we saw Doctor Light come into play once more, while trust issues aplenty were spread throughout the episode for many characters, although Barry would actually peel back the mask and reveal his secret identity to Linda as Enter Zoom progressed. By the time that this latest entry came to an end for the Sultan of Speed, fans had been treated to a truly fantastic closing 10 minutes which was part of an episode littered with WTF moments, and heres the best of them.

13. The Flash Vs. Doctor Light

At the end of the previous episode, we saw Doctor Light becoming just another one of the many rogues who were locked up underneath S.T.A.R. Labs. With that said, it was a bit of a shocker to see Enter Zoom start with Light out of S.T.A.R. and instead putting it to The Flash. Even more surprising, Doctor Light was laying a beat down on the Scarlet Speedster that was a shock to many a viewer, with her even ripping off our heros Flash logo. Of course, all would be revealed as Enter Zoom progressed.
