The Flash Season 2: 20 Most Shocking Moments (So Far)
14. The Abuse Of Lisa Snart
Whilst many a rogue has a sympathetic backstory these days, some are still just downright no-good nasty villains who carry out evil actions because they were born evil. When Lisa Snart, aka Golden Glider, return to the show during Season 2, we got a glimpse into her story; a story full of abuse and torment from her father, career criminal Lewis Snart. As Lisa reveals to Team Flash, her father physically and mentally abused her since she was just 7 years of age. This was a shocking moment and one that gave a stark, harsh and poignant twist to the Family of Rogues episode and to an arc that couldve easily fallen into the territory of standard, generic villainy. Upping the ante, the episode would also reveal that Lewis had implanted an explosive device in his own daughters skull. Cheers, dad! Luckily for those involved, Lisas brother, Leonard Snart/Captain Cold, would get some semblance of revenge for his sister by turning his patented Cold Gun on his daddy dearest during the episodes closing moments.
