In an effort to protect the team, Charlie (Maisie Richardson-Sellers) is forced to scatter her friends into a variety of different television shows, which seems like a foolproof plan until she realizes that Legends are involved, which means nothing is ever as easy as it seems.
Next week's episode is the season's penultimate hour, which means we should probably expect some major fireworks as we march full steam ahead toward what's sure to be a wild fifth season finale on Tuesday, June 2nd.
DC's Legends of Tomorrow has already been renewed for a sixth season, which is set to premiere midseason 2021, alongside The CW's latest DC TV series, Superman & Lois, although that is likely subject to change depending on the status of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and on when production can resume safely.
"The One Where We're Trapped on TV" - (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET) (TV-14, V) (HDTV)
BREAKING FREE - After Charlie (Maisie Richardson-Sellers) does the one thing that goes against her nature when it comes to her sisters, she tries to protect the Legends by scattering them in different television shows. Of course, in true Legends style some can't just be blissfully ignorant and happy but figure out a way to end up messing with the system. Caity Lotz, Jes Macallan, Dominic Purcell, Nick Zano, Tala Ashe, Olivia Swann and Matt Ryan also star. Marc Guggenheim directed the episode written by Grainne Godfree & James Eagan (#514). Original airdate 5/26/2020.
After defeating the demon Mallus by cuddling him to death with a giant stuffed animal named Beebo, the Legends are ready to ease off the gas. Sara and her team join Ava Sharpe and the Time Bureau to help clean up the last few remaining anachronisms. The job seems straightforward enough until Constantine arrives to inform them that, in solving one major problem, they have created another, much larger one. When the Legends let time crumble in order to release and defeat Mallus, the barrier between worlds softened. History is now infected with "Fugitives" - magical creatures from myths, fairytales, and legends. Having been expelled throughout time by people like Constantine, these Fugitives are now returning to our world in droves and making a real mess of things. As the Time Bureau is distrustful of and ill-equipped to deal with magic, the Legends must team up with everyone's favorite demonologist to set history back on track.
