Flash Season 1 Episode 2

Flash Season 1 Episode 23What did you think, Dylan Dylan It was So Emma, true or false you have never seen an episode of The Flash before tonight Emma True Although Im familiar with Barry from watching Arrow. Dylan Oh, Emma my condolences. Emma Let me just say this The Flash is way more lighthearted and fun than Arrow. Even the moping on this episode was like, baby moping. Oliver Queen has advanced degrees in moping. Dylan Ollie is a true Mope Master. So, as a First Time Flasher, was there anything that sort of left you scratching your head in this episode I know they try to keep it pretty new viewer friendly with these crossovers the FlashArrow crossovers got me to watch Arrow for a bit, but anything I need to, well, bring you up to speed on Emma I will forgive your pun because were just getting to know each other, sir.

Emma There was some stuff that was confusing to me as a non viewer, like Caitlins whole deal, but nothing that stopped me from being able to follow along with the story. Even the parts that had me scratching my head a bit at the beginning, like Cisco is that how you spell it I want to call him Sisko after my fave captain and his beef with Barry, got a little clearer by the end of the episode. And I wasnt the only one meeting a bunch of new characters Supergirl came over from a whole other Earth and got introduced to everyone too, in a super cute little scene. Wells aka Eobard Thawne.

Dylan Okay, so Caitlins thing and Ciscos beef both stem from Barry being a major doofus and deciding to futz around with the time stream, rewriting reality, which left all our Flashers in a new reality where Caitlin got freeze powers that may or may not turn her evil, and where Ciscos jerk of a brother was actually nice but also now dead. And yeah, as I am a true professional, I watched Supergirl last night because it tied in here, even though Im not on that beat any more, and even though it was roughly 4. I got Berlanti ed. But yeah, Karas always fun. We also got introduced to the Legends of Tomorrow, who, if you arent familiar, are the worlds worst super team. Emma They call themselves the worst, or they just are the worst Dylan Well, I mean, they call themselves the Legends, but they just generally very bad at being superheroes. Theyre fun most of the time. Emma Theyve got White Canary so Im already on board. Dylan Sara Shes actually the best. Okay, so lets dig in here. We started off with a little fast forward, with all our heroes plans apparently going sideways as they are wont to do, and then flashing back toExcept its not a meteor, its a spaceship and its filled with not so little green men who are eeeevil. Emma The aliens Dominators, as well learn later from Lyla are definitely appropriately creepy looking. Although not as fast as some people on this show, of course. If I were in Barrys position I probably would have screamed Aliens too. Did you believe they were there just for recon, or would you have been like Lyla and the President and decide to attack them first too Dylan I mean, theyre called the DominatorsTheyre pretty upfront about their intentions. Which is respectable, I guess. Emma Okay, but did they show up 5. Hey hey, were the Dominators or did some government guy decide thats a cool name for a terrifying alien species Dylan Well, in Lylas defense, they immediately kidnapped the President and started Dominating, so thankfully for the purposes of the show, they are just good old fashioned evil aliens. Emma Good point. After discovering the aliens, Barry meets Lyla at the crash site and brings her back to the lab to get the scoop about our dear Dominator friends. Theyve been here before, kicked some butt, and then left. Lyla tries to warn Barry and friends away from the case, but who ever listens to anybody on these shows Dylan Nobody, Emma. Not a single damn person. But yeah, we then get a nice little gathering the team sequence that also allows for a lot of people standing around talking sequences. We get Stein and Jax finally telling Barry and us what Future Barrys message was basically I am a huge screw up in 2. Stein and Caitlin talking about powers and also meeting Steins new daughter that hed been dreaming of. Lots of weird mopping up for dangling Legends plot threadsI did not expect that Emma Most of that went over my head, but it wasnt off putting. I could watch Victor Garber do anything, so watching him freaking out over a daughter that he just met was perfectly reasonable. I did love getting to see Barry come in and save Oliver and Dig from Vigilante, when he comes to recruit them. They would never admit to needing the help, but it was delightful to watch. Dylan I also liked Ollie talking sense into Barry during his usual second act moping. I mean, sure he changed the timeline, but so what Its over, bro. Like the ice lady says, Let it go. Emma Chris and I have been talking about this over in our Arrow recaps, but its so nice to see Ollie being a decent leader and mentor And hes right. Barry messed up real bad, but trying to fix it would only mess things up even more. Dylan And the really frustrating thing about everybody getting all bent out of shape about it is that A Barry created Flashpoint, but he also undid it when it was gonna mess up the universe, B he had to watch his mom die for like the billionth time in order to reset the timeline, and C how the heck are you gonna be mad about something that, from your POV, never existed. If a guy I knew from my work stuff showed up and was like, I created a separate reality and you had a daughter instead of a son, I would probably just shrug and be like, But we still have guacamole in this universe right and then eat some chips and guac. But thats beside the point, even if they spent a long time on the timeline shenanigans this episode. What were your favorite bits from the whole everybody meets and interacts segments Because Heat Wave refusing to call Kara Supergirl, sure was fun. Emma I loved Supergirl showing everyone up when they questioned how super she was. And Thea coming out of vigilante retirement to fight aliens, because its so real. I would put on a leather suit to meet aliens too. Dylan I would put on a leather suit to do just about anything. In fact, Im wearing a leather suit right now. Its really itchy, to be honest. Emma Thats more than I needed to know considering I only just met you, Dylan. Make sure you have someone help you get that off, I hear leather gets real sweaty. Dylan You heard very right. I really enjoyed how, despite literally everybody and their brother from the CWverse running around, they still managed to make it a Flash episode. And the Dominators, uh, dominating the heroes was a good excuse for the usual team up fight. Emma It definitely felt like a Flash episode to me too, even though Ive never seen one before this. Im looking forward to seeing if they can keep that up on Arrow tomorrow. What did you think about the magic mind control device Which I guess was more sci fi than magic. Im not usually into mind control plot lines, but it was so much fun watching all our heroes beat up on each other. Dylan Yeah, I mean, its very much a thing in superhero junk, so I was not surprised. Plus, it always gives the audience a chance to see what everybodys deal is. All that was missing was some Claremont ian self narration where everybody talks a lot about their powers as they use them. We also got to see Wally cut loose with his speed After a season of waiting for him to get and use his powers, it was very cathartic to see him rush in and save the day. Emma Im team Wally. Iris and his dad and seemingly every other person around wanted to keep him on the bench, but dudes gotta run. The only way hes going to get better with his powers is to use them Dylan Yeah, but like Caitlins actually super helpful freeze powers, Barry and Co.
