You are correct.  Chrome has a flashplayer builtin.  If one uses chrome://plugins as the URL and has the Adobe plugin installed, as I do, they would see something like this.

Adobe Flash Player (2 files) - Version: 11.2 r202
Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202
Name:    Shockwave Flash
Description:    Shockwave Flash 13.0 r0
Version:    13.0.0.206
Location:    /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so
Type:    PPAPI (out-of-process)
      Enable
MIME types:   
MIME type    Description    File extensions
application/x-shockwave-flash    Shockwave Flash   
.swf
application/futuresplash    FutureSplash Player   
.spl

Name:    Shockwave Flash
Version:    11.2 r202
Location:    /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so
Type:    NPAPI
      Disable
MIME types:   
MIME type    Description    File extensions
application/x-shockwave-flash    Shockwave Flash   
.swf
application/futuresplash    FutureSplash Player   
.spl

Note that I have the builtin player (libpepflashplayer.so) disabled at the moment since there is a problem when using that with mlb.com live games.
