Unlike The Flash, Supergirl, and Batwoman; which were all forced to cut their currently airing seasons short due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and subsequent global production shut down, DC's Legends of Tomorrow wrapped filming its fifth season last year, meaning it will continue airing new episodes until its true season finale on June 2.
As for next week's episode, it's shaping up to be quite a fun hour as the entire team heads back to college and get into some Old School-esque shenanigans as they form a sorority in an effort to locate and acquire an ancient artifact known as the Chalice of Dionyus, that will help Charlie (Maisie Richardson-Sellers) operate the Loom of Fate. However, things quickly take a turn for the worst when Nate (Nick Zano) falls under Dion's spell and spills the beans about what he and the other Legends are planning.
Meanwhile, Mick Rory (Dominic Purcell) goes on a college tour with Lita (Mina Sundwall), but has to cut the father/daughter bonding trip short when something really unexpected comes up.

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.
