Dr zoom earth 29/7/2023 ![]() Having lost her boyfriend and her partner-in-crime, Earth-2 Caitlin was adrift and forced to choose between her loyalty to/fear of Zoom and her desire to avenge Ronnie's death. That truth was at the heart of Killer Frost's character arc this week. Except when it comes to Cisco, apparently. This moment also emphasized the idea that, no matter how much the circumstances of a person's life might change from one Earth to the next, the fundamentals of who they are generally don't. Wells give Barry the all-important pep talk, it was nice to see Barry getting a boost from himself for a change.

Earth-1 Barry might be kind of a dork, but Earth-2 Barry is on another level entirely. That was the only area where the fun and silliness of last week's episode carried over.

It's unfortunate we didn't see more of the latter two, especially since there's no telling when or if we'll see Ronnie on this show again. It didn't help that the writers pretty much cleaned house last week, killing off the Earth-2 versions of Joe, Cisco and Ronnie before the end. That element was much less a focus this time around. Half of the fun with "Welcome to Earth-2" was in getting acquainted with the Earth-2 setting and seeing all the amusing ways the lives of various characters have diverged in this alternate world. ![]()
