The DCTV Heroes Assemble In The Plot Synopsis For THE FLASH Season 3 Episode 8: "Invasion!"
With an alien invasion imminent, the Scarlet Speedster races around space and time to recruit the Green Arrow, the Legends of Tomorrow, and one seriously Super secret weapon. Come check it out!
While the DCTV crossover is being touted as a four-part event, it seems like the actual superheroic team-up festivities will begin on the second night of the week with The Flash.
Barry will be the one tasked with recruiting the heroes from their various locations, starting off with the Green Arrow & Diggle in Star City. However, when that proves to be not enough firepower against the Dominators, the duo traverse through time to locate the Legends of Tomorrow and then Barry & Cisco head off to another Earth to bring back the most powerful hero on the roster, Supergirl!
Check out the new synopsis below:
IT’S HEROES VS. ALIENS IN THIS EPIC CROSSOVER EVENT — When aliens called the Dominators attack Central City, Barry (Grant Gustin) speeds over to Star City to ask the Green Arrow (guest star Stephen Amell) for help in stopping them. Realizing the battle against the Dominators is bigger than they thought, they track down the Legends of Tomorrow, and Barry and Cisco (Carlos Valdes) create a breach to bring back a secret weapon – Supergirl (guest star Melissa Benoist). Once all of the super friends are assembled, they come up with a plan to attack but a shocking secret related to Flashpoint is revealed and suddenly no one is sure who they can trust. Meanwhile, Wally (Keiynan Lonsdale) wants to join the battle against the aliens but Iris (Candice Patton) tells him he’s not ready. Dermott Downs directed the episode with story by Greg Berlanti & Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Aaron Helbing & Todd Helbing (#308). Original airdate 11/29/2016.
Blinded by anger, Barry unwittingly plays into Zoom's game and uncovers the evil speedster's true goal: to destroy all the earths in the multiverse. In the face of his life, Barry ultimately gets the upper hand against Zoom and defeats his nemesis.
