* NotSoDifferent: Just as Eobard Thawne masquerading as Wells warned Barry [[Recap/TheFlash2014S1E16RogueTime last season]] not to tell anyone about his time travel lest it screw up the timeline [[note]]obviously extremely hypocritical, given what we later learn about Thawne[[/note]], ''this'' seemingly-benevolent Wells tells Barry and Cisco not to tell anyone on Earth-1 about their doppelgangers lest it influence their lives. Barry even points out the similarity.

City Of Weirdos is being cut per TRS


* SeenItAll: By now, the Wests are so used to the [[CityOfWeirdos goings on]] of Central City that they react to King Shark busting through their roof and the Flash showing up as no big deal. Wally is amazed.

* WrongGenreSavvy: Diggle and Lyla bring teams of armed ARGUS agents with them and has informed Team Flash about King Shark. This would have been more than sufficient on a dark vigilante show like ''Series/{{Arrow}}''. Unfortunately in a superhero show like the Flash, anything bigger than 7' is almost guaranteed to be bullet proof.

* RunningGag: Diggle is still freaked out over Barry's speed... and by the end of the episode he gets Lyla to agree with him!

** After the attack on the West home, Cisco comments "Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the suburbs, King Shark shows up at your house." The quote is a reference to ''Jaws 2''.

The battle has nothing to do with climate.


* HurricaneOfPuns: ''Oh, boy''. Interestingly, an actual hurricane appears in the climatic battle.

* MindScrew: Zoom's real identity looks and sounds just like Jay Garrick. WordOfGod is that he's been the one interacting with the team all season. So who was the Jay who was killed?

** Amanda Waller had King Shark to be a part of the ''ComicBook/SuicideSquad'', which his comic counterpart actually is.

* BondVillainStupidity: Despite taking the Flash lure out in one swipe, when King Shark comes across the actual Flash, he seems to want to spend all his time telling Barry that he's going to kill him rather than actually DOING it.

* RewatchBonus: To the last episode. Wonder why the Man in the iron mask broke down after Flash misinterpreted his message about Jay? It's because he was trying to tell them that '''Jay was ''Zoom'''''!

It's because he was trying to tell them that '''Jay was ''Zoom'''''!''Zoom'''''! Or, given the multiverse path the show has taken, he was telling them his own name. The possibilities abound.
