The CW Network continues with Season 2 of The Flash. With the identity behind the super-villain Zoom (voiced by Tony Todd) revealed, Twitter had lots to say about the relationship twist between the future Iris-West Allen (Candice Patton) and Barry Allen (Grant Gustin).

In our previous recap, Central City felt the full wrath of Zoom as he murdered a squad full of police officers in cold blood. With the city in dire need of a hero, Iris finally proclaimed her love for Barry. Iris helplessly watched as Barry felt the full effect of the particle accelerator explosion again. She burst into tears when Barry was vaporized right in front of her.

In our recent recap, though Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale) and Jesse (Violett Beane) survived the blast, Iris witnessed the arrival of zombie Girder. While Girder was on a destructive path, Barry found himself stuck in the Speed Force. After dealing with the tragic death of his mother, Barry was ready to return home. After hearing Iris' voice, The Flash returned better than ever, rescuing her from zombie Girder.

In an interview with Zap2it, Patton explains what drew her to Iris, ""For me it's always been more about the story and the heart and the family behind the superhero, rather than the theatrics and the special effects and the CGI. That stuff is the icing on the cake, but if you don't have a great story as the base, you don't have anything to stand on. I think our show has accomplished that in a way that crosses over viewers of all races, creeds and ages. That's such an awesome thing."

Check out what Twitter had to say:

@LilyMiranda07 tweets, "Iris West went INTO the freaking SPEED FORCE and physically PULLED Barry Allen back home. If thats not true love, I dunno what is! #TheFlash"

@gifs_westallen adds, "barry reaching for iris' hand in the speed force because she's his lightning rod #WestAllen #TheFlash"

@pandagrl96  quotes, "when Barry told Iris "you're everything thing to me and your voice will always bring me home"#TheFlash"

@iriswestallxn writes, "Iris saved her future husband. The heroine we deserve. #TheFlash #WestAllen"

@Terrysboy loved this scene, "Welp we got zombie Girder, this is horrible timing. Lol at Cisco trying to be brave and Iris like "it's cool get behind me". #theflash"

@DailyPlanetDC states, "Last nights #TheFlash was epic in every way! I especially loved the scene where Iris (@candicekp) reached out to grab Barry (@grantgust)"

The Flash continues on the CW for 2 more Tuesdays at 8pm.
