Sci-Fi This Week: Zoom Takes On The Flash!

This season’s Big Bad is front and center on The Flash this week, as Barry and the team set a trap for Zoom and confront the evil speedster from a parallel universe. Will their gambit pay off? Or is it just giving Zoom exactly what he wants … the death of the Flash?
