Long-time Flash villain Abra Kadabra is coming to the Arrowverse and it looks like he might be able to answer some of Team Flash's outstanding questions regarding Savitar. At the end of tonight's episode, a preview for next week's episode, aptly titled 'Abra Kadbra', showed the character up to no good.

Portrayed in live action form by David Dastmalchian, Abra Kadabra is a character from the future that disguises advanced technology as magic. The character made his first appearance in The Flash #128 and was created by John Broome and Carmine Infantino.

The preview also showed the return of Gypsy (Jessica Camacho) to the show, so the writers could possibly be retconning Abra's origin to make him a character that is being pursued by the dimension-traveling bounty hunter from Earth-19.

The Flash (Grant Gustin) battles Abra Kadabra (guest star David Dastmalchian), a villain from Earth-19, who makes him a tempting offer – release him and Abra Kadara will reveal Savitar's true identity.

Desperate to save Iris (Candice Patton), Barry considers taking the deal but Gypsy (guest star Jessica Camacho) breaches in to capture the villain for her own reasons and during the melee, Abra Kadabra manages to escape. Barry is furious that Gypsy interfered but Gypsy refuses to back down, forcing Cisco (Carlos Valdes) to take sides. Meanwhile, Julian (Tom Felton) is still a bit cold towards Caitlin (Danielle Panabaker) but when she is severely injured in a battle with Gypsy, he rushes to her side.

Nina Lopez-Corrado directed the episode with story by Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Brooke Roberts & David Kob.

Based on the characters from DC, The Flash is from by Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (Arrow, Supergirl), Andrew Kreisberg (Arrow, The Flash), Sarah Schechter (Arrow, DC's Legends of Tomorrow) and Aaron and Todd Helbing.
