DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow Season 2, Episode 7 Synopsis: “Invasion”

This week, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow concludes The CW’s massive DC TV crossover event!

Last week on DC’s Legends of Tomorrow‘s “Outlaw Country” episode, the Legends traveled back to the Old West after finding a time aberration that involved Quentin Turnbull coming into power. The team is soon reunited with Jonah Hex, but he’s less than thrilled that a female is now leader of the Legends.

As the team investigates how Turnbull gained control of the west, they learn that he’s using a Time Pirate’s tracking device to mine large amounts of Dwarf Star alloy. The Legends later deduce that Turnbull will use the Dwarf Star alloy to destroy a pass, cutting the rest of the west off from the US Army and supplies.

The team quickly creates a plan to infiltrate Turnbull’s camp and also stop a train loaded with Dwarf Star alloy to reach the pass. Jonah is finally given the opportunity for revenge, but decides to take the high road and turn Turnbull in to the authorities. As for Nate, he comes into his own when he believes in his own abilities and stops the speeding train dead in its tracks.

In the end, Sara’s exemplary leadership and strategy gain Jonah’s respect—proving him wrong about his prejudiced opinions. Ray, with a new fresh supply of Dwarf Star alloy, begins construction on a new ATOM suit. However, he builds something for Nate first—a new superhero costume. The brief moment of elation is broken when Sara gives them the news that their friends in 2016 need their help—a quick nod to the crossover event.

This week, the Legends will join forces with the Green Arrow, The Flash, and Supergirl to rid the world of The Dominators. Here’s the official synopsis:

“Invasion!”

"ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL IN THIS CROSSOVER OF SUPERHEROES — After learning the Dominators’ plan for the world, the Legends must work together with The Flash (guest star Grant Gustin), Supergirl (guest star Melissa Benoist) and Green Arrow (guest star Stephen Amell) to kill them once and for all. Meanwhile, Stein (Victor Garber) figures out, with the help of others, how the team can terminate the Dominators, but is distracted by the aberration he realizes he created in 1987."
