The Flash Season 2: 19 WTF Moments From 'Escape From Earth-2'

By Andrew Pollard /

4. How Long?

Right, so when Jay and Caitlin are trying to fix the Speed Cannon, it€™s said that there€™s barely an hour left for Barry and Co. to make it back through the portal and return to Earth-1. Flipping over to Earth-2, we then see Killer Frost talked into helping out Barry x2, Cisco, Harry, and Iris, with the rogue even forming a giant ice path for our heroes to climb. And climb they do. What€™s WTF here, though, is that it would likely take well over an hour to actually get up to Zoom€™s lair, even when you consider that Barry obviously has superpowers. And then for us to see what followed, as in the whole kick-off with Zoom, surely that would take way more than the allocated hour that the group supposedly has left to make it back to Earth-1, even if Joe is adamant that the Speed Cannon wasn€™t going to be closed regardless. Whilst this episode was a great one, there did seem to be a few inconsistencies when it came to time, but then again, maybe I€™m just being a bit picky today.
