I knew she looked familiar in the commercials so I looked it up. It's just wrong seeing her with blonde hair.
Young Simon: So... how'd the Independents cut us off? Young River: They were using dinosaurs.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
That was some convoluted BS on Flash explaining the Jay-is-Zoom thing. Bah. I liked the first half of the episode, but didn't like the second half.
Also, it was really weird Barry not mentioning spending several days on yet another Earth in the middle of his run back from Keystone. (Or why, if Barry can travel between Earths with the tachyon widget, he needs Cisco to open a breach.)
ETA: Also, Cisco loses nerd points for using "midichlorians."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Didn't like it, either. I'm a big fan of causality. It also doesn't make a lot of sense. Why did Zoom say "This is a complication," when he brought Jay's dead body back to the lair? It was part of the plan.

Yeah, I was gonna bring up the same thing. Dude, you just created your own breach, albeit to a different different Earth. Now you've decided to keep that secret? That never ends well.
So who is the man in the mask? Another time remnant? Henry? Ollie (who's been reported dead on Earth II)? Anakin?

I kept waiting for some kind of double cross with the whole giving Zoom Barry's speed force. I was hoping it was going to be a trick.

I thought it was to a different Earth. None of the Supergirl people had heard of the Flash or Green Arrow or Black Canary.

I don't think I missed any episodes, but I don't remember what a time remnant is. Not a time wraith, right?

Me, too.

Yes. Supergirl's Earth is Earth 3 (or whatever). But the point is Barry just traveled to a different Earth on his own. His insistence that Cisco is the only one who could get him to Earth 2 seemed really strange.

A time remnant is something cut adrift from a timeline that no longer exists (or at least that's the best I can wrap my head around it) like Thawne when he appeared earlier this season.
As for why Zoom has a time remnant, or how he convinced the remnant to let him kill him (or why he then said that it complicated things while alone in his lair with Iron Mask when he supposedly did it on purpose) I can only assume the writers are doing a bunch of crack.

You are correct. I was trying to say that, but changed the way I was expressing it midsentence and never fixed the mistake (until now).

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I just watched the Flash and yeah, huh?
I don;t watch Supergirl, so the Earth jumping thing didn't hit me, but I had no idea what they were going on about the time remnant Jay crap.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
Wow, I love The Flash, but this show's mumbo is getting seriously jumbo'd. It's hard enough to keep a straight face when they portentously talk about SPEED FORCE, but now there's time remnants and wraiths and whatnots.
So I am confused...who the hell is Jay Garrick? I mean, original Jay Garrick? Did he ever exist on Earth 2, or was it just a sort of costume that Hunter Zolomon put on? Obviously I don't remember enough of the details from the beginning of the season.

Yeah, because there was a flashback to him being Earth-2's Flash. So did he become the Flash AND Zoom? So confused.
