Ahead of the "Elseworlds" crossover, The Flash will air its landmark 100th episode, and it's shaping up to a doozy of an hour as Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) takes his daughter Nora (Jessica Parker Kennedy) on a dangerous trip down memory lane where they cross paths with a number of the biggest and baddest villains the Scarlet Speedster has ever faced.

The new promo isn't particularly spoiler-y, but we do catch a sneak preview of the returns of the Reverse-Flash (Tom Cavanagh), Zoom (Teddy Sears), and Savitar (Grant Gustin) - and those are only the secrets we know about.

Expect the episode to feature a number of other surprises that should be welcome treats for fans.



"What's Past is Prologue" - (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (TV-PG, V) (HDTV)

TOM CAVANAGH DIRECTS THE 100TH EPISODE - In the 100th episode, Barry (Grant Gustin) and Team Flash come up with a plan to stop Cicada (Chris Klein). However, the plan calls for Barry and Nora (Jessica Parker Kennedy) to travel back in time to gather some key necessities. However, Barry hesitates, concerned about his daughter seeing certain parts of his life. Meanwhile, Sherloque (Tom Cavanagh) takes his concerns about Nora to Iris (Candice Patton), and Caitlin (Danielle Panabaker) turns up a key asset in the fight against Cicada. Tom Cavanagh directed the episode written by Todd Helbing & Lauren Certo (#508). Original airdate 12/4/2018.

Matching wits with The Thinker, who by season’s end had harnessed the powers of all twelve bus metas he created, stretched Team Flash to their limits, but with the help of some new allies, Barry Allen (aka The Flash) and company were able to put a stop to the Enlightenment and save Central City once again. However, with the arrival of Barry and Iris’ speedster daughter, Nora, who arrived from the future admitting to having made a “big mistake,” things are anything but status quo.
