The Flash is known for fully embracing the most fantastical aspects of DC Comics' lore, and season 3 has not disappointed in that regard; time travel, alternate timelines, multi-dimensional dopplegangers and the usual parade of super-powered villains have all kept viewers occupied this season - and we've only seen the first four episodes (at the time of writing this)!
However, season 3's fifth episode (the aptly-titled "Monster") will attempt something that seems pretty fantastical even for The Flash: a giant monster running amok in Central City.
We already got a glimpse of the monster, thanks to the promo included at the end of episode four - but today we get an extended trailer for the main event - as well as a look at the episode's secondary plotlines:
As stated, seeing the Flash battle a giant monster is going to be pushing the things even further than Gorilla Grodd or King Shark did. It could easily end up being silly, but the fact that The Flash showrunners are constantly going for it with such gusto is admirable.
...And so far, the risks have been worth the reward.
Get a more detailed synopsis for "Monster" below:
"CAITLIN CALLS ON HER MOTHER FOR HELP WITH HER GROWING META POWERS — Desperate to understand what is happening to her, Caitlin (Danielle Panabaker) visits her mother, Dr. Tannhauser (guest star Susan Walters), a renowned biomedical researcher, in the hopes that her mother can provide some answers about Caitlin's growing meta-human powers.
However, when Dr. Tannhauser treats her daughter like a test subject, Caitlin grows cold and brings up past wounds causing the two to have a major blowout. Meanwhile, after a mysterious new meta-human attacks Central City, Barry (Grant Gustin) tries to convince Julian (Tom Felton) to let him assist on the case."
The Flash airs at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Tuesdays on The CW. "Monster" will debut on November 1.
