In what was treated as a throw-away line, Wells and Barry briefly mention that somehow Zoom knew to send Light because Zoom somehow had intel on Barry and Barry’s past ( Exhibit E), which is why Light, who had been nothing more than a small-time thief, was sent to Earth-1 with a chance of killing Flash. Doctor Light is able to temporarily blind Barry because he was caught off guard by this revelation. The breacher that Zoom sent last week was Doctor Light, who is the Earth-2 Linda Park. That’s all the information the team is going to use to take down the villain holding Wells’ daughter captive.

That’s all he’s telling Barry ( Exhibit D). That’s all Wells is telling the team that he traveled across the breach to meet in order to help stop Zoom. So, what does Wells tell the team about Zoom? That Zoom is fast and Zoom is mean. What does Wells know about Zoom? “Everything. Zoom has been sending metas through the breach between the worlds to kill Earth-1 Flash.

According to Wells, an incident at Earth-2 STAR Labs, which occurred at the same time as the reactor explosion at the Earth-1 STAR Labs ( Exhibit B) released a wave of dark matter that created the Earth-2 metahuman problem. To help refresh your memory, last week, Earth-2 Harrison Wells begrudgingly joined the team at Earth-1 STAR Labs. Shall we begin? His business is metahumans, and business is good. You’ll see these exhibit pieces pop up throughout my review of this week’s episode –which can’t be done without referencing last week’s episode, since this really does feel like a two-parter– because I intend to use these presented exhibits to build my case for what I think is going on this season. Why is that title so ominous after this week’s episode? And what’s with the “Exhibit A” thing, man?

This week’s episode, “Enter Zoom”, was essentially part two of a larger story begun with last week’s now-ominously titled episode “The Darkness and the Light” ( Exhibit A).
