Season 2 of The CWs The Flash has sped along at a rapid pace already, and The Darkness and the Light picked up the baton and charged full speed ahead. With Barry Allen having now met Earth-2s Harrison Wells, this episode centred on our familiar S.T.A.R. Labs crew getting acclimatised to this other Dr. Wells. After all, the last time our heroes saw the face of Wells, hed been revealed to be the man who had killed Barrys mother, was indeed the Reverse-Flash, was kind of responsible for the initial death of Ronnie Raymond, and his subsequent existence caused poor Eddie Thawne to sacrifice his own life. But this Wells is different, right? Right?! Meanwhile, the villain-of-the-week was Doctor Light, another rogue sent over from Earth-2 by uber-villain Zoom, and elsewhere we saw Barry and Patty Spivot finally get round to going on a date, whilst Cisco Ramon continued to take steps to becoming his own hero. Dotted through The Darkness and the Light were many a WTF moments, and heres the best of em.

These days youll find a whole host of Apps available that can let you do pretty much anything youve ever imagined when it comes to your mobile phone, tablet, laptop, etc. Hell, nowadays you can control your home heating system and TV planner from your handheld device. And then, of course, theres Candy Crush. That said, the real world has yet to feature an App that can detect whether there are any meta-humans in your presence. Thats not the case in The Flash though. Ever the genius, the opening moments of The Darkness and the Light see Earth-2s Harrison Wells reveal his latest invention: a meta-human detecting App (or fancy watch). Whilst seen used and demonstrated in Earth-2, it wouldnt be long until this App was brought into play in Earth-1
