They descend suddenly from the stars, in monumental ships like floating cathedrals. They are touched by a dark and terrible force from beyond our reality, silent but for the one note they emit that freezes all motion. Their mission: to drain the Earth of all its kinetic energy and leave it a lifeless husk. They never expected anyone could escape their song—but the Flash was in the Speed Force when they struck, and Aquaman was in the deepest ravine far below the ocean’s floor. These heroes have little in common. They’ve rarely even fought side by side without their fellow Justice League members. Now they must find a way to work together against impossible odds to save the world and the people they love.

The group of reporters at the Central City Citizen have had a hard time accepting Allegra as their leader. This episode doubles down on their reasons for mistrust, as they face danger together without knowing all the facts. Allegra may be a light-powered meta, but she has been keeping a lot of her life “in the dark”, at least until now. This is a chance for Kayla Compton to shine as Allegra Garcia, and she absolutely knocks it out of the park in this episode of THE FLASH. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!
