The CW has released photos for the fourteenth and penultimate episode of DC's Legends of Tomorrow's sixth season, "There Will Be Brood". The episode, which is set to air on Sunday, August 29th, will see Astra (Olivia Swann) and Spooner (Lisseth Chavez) end up in 1920s Texas where Spooner will come face to face with someone who she thinks might be her mother. As fans will recall, Spooner and her mother were abducted by aliens when Spooner was a child and while Spooner was returned to Earth, her mother remains missing.
The episode will also see John Constantine (Matt Ryan) apparently teaming up with Bishop (Raffi Barsoumian) to find a way to restore his magic, though given the events of "Silence of the Sonograms" this may not be a good thing as it's not regular Constantine in charge, but rather "Dark" Constantine, his addicted self.
What ultimately happens with Constantine and his powers will be bittersweet for Legends fans, no matter the outcome, however. It was announced in July that while Matt Ryan will continue to appear on the series as a new character in Season 7, Constantine's arc will end in Season 6.
"While John Constantine's arc on the show is coming to an end in season six, Matt Ryan's journey with the Legends is not over," executive producer Phil Klemmer told fans while making the announcement.
"As everyone who loves him knows, in the end, John Constantine will walk his path alone," Ryan told fans. "The time has come for John to part ways with the Legends, and for me to part ways with John. I'm really excited to be creating this new role on the show and having some fun with it — discovering how this new character fits in and causes some trouble for the Legends."
"There Will Be Brood" is directed by Legends alum Maisie Richardson-Sellers who previously played Amaya Jiwe/Vixen in Seasons 2-3 and Charlie/Clotho in Seasons 4-5. You can check out the synopsis for the episode below and read on for the photos.
GETTING ANSWERS – When Astra (Olivia Swann) and Spooner (Lisseth Chavez) find themselves as stowaways, they learn that Constantine (Matt Ryan) is still chasing the Fountain of Imperium and find themselves in 1920s Texas.

Meanwhile, Spooner learns some information about her past that she wasn't expecting. Caity Lotz, Nick Zano, Tala Ashe, Jes Macallan, Adam Tsekham and Shayan Sobhian also star. Maisie Richardson-Sellers directed the episode written by Ray Utarnachitt & Marcelena Campos Mayhorn.
