The Flash | Season 3 Episode 2 - "Paradox"


Spoiler Alert!

Back with a new The Flash rant!
I'm sorry for being a little bit late with this rant but life happened and I just couldn't watch the episode neither live nor yesterday.
But I watched it today and yas!
I know last week my rant wasn't the best but this week's rant is a whole nother story!
This week's episode was so good that I don't even know what to start with.
Ok, I guess I should start with Felicity!
I think you all know by now that Felicity is one of my favourite characters of all time and I'm always happy to see her in Arrow, but in The Flash is a lot more special. I love when they 'share characters' so I loved the idea of Barry recurring to Felicity for help with the changes in the real world that he's now in. I also really liked the idea of us, audience, finding out everything through flashbacks while Barry is telling everything to Felicity. And, although it is kind of messed up, it is also really funny the fact that Diggle now has a son instead of a Daughter. I'm really curious to see how that's going to play on Arrow, but that's for another rant.
So, we basically find out that, besides Joe and Iris not speaking to each other that Cisco's brother, Dante, died and that Cisco is kind of pissed with Barry and that Barry has a new partner, Julian Albert, aka my love Tom Felton!
I gotta say, Tom Felton brought a whole new feeling to The Flash and I'm loving it! I was so excited to see his character and, although him and Barry aren't really friends nor really like each other, I'm loving having in on the series. To be honest, I think it makes me like his character even better and makes me love what he brings to the series even more! I'm really excited to see what's going to happen and, of course, how is he going to find out that Barry is The Flash because, c'mon, we all know that he's going to find out eventually.
Something else really nice about this episode was to see John Wesley Shipp as Jay Garrick from the other earth. We didn't do much really, but it was nice to see him, a little through back to the original Flash.
And, of course, we have to talk about the new villain who, at first, I thought it was going to be The Rival but it turns out, it's going to be this Alchemy guy who's going to be the main villain this season. (At least, that's my thought so far). And, to be quite honest, I'm way more into this guy than The Rival. I know Todd tweeted me and all but, I'm sorry, Alchemy seems way more challenging and a lot different from all the other villains we've seen so far so, I'm excited!
In the very end, Barry tells everyone about the changes that happened in this world and basically everything kind of works out in the end.
Basically the episode ends like that but not without leaving us with some clues for the next episodes. They find out that the Alchemy, who Cisco named Doctor Alchemy, is creating other 'metahumans' from Flashpoint, which means, we are going to see Kid Flash again soon. Also, it looked like everything was fine with Caitlin but, turns out, she's getting the Killer Frost powers so, that's going to be interesting to see as well.
And, obviously, I had to talk about the last seconds of the episode, which are always very exciting.
In this one, Alchemy attacks The Rival in his cell at Iron Heights, which means, he can get in everywhere he wants, which is kind of scarry.
So, that's basically it.
Overall, I loved this episode! It was everything that I thought the first one was going to be so, very pleased with this second episode.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments and I'll see you later with a new American Horror Story rant.
Love,
Daniela.
