We’re just two weeks away from the premiere of 2018 DCTV crossover Elseworlds. The CW has finally released the synopses for the three episodes which make up the event. Typically the third part, Supergirl, has a rather short and unforgiving synopsis which will give nothing away.

The Arrow synopsis mentions that Barry, Oliver and Kara will be meeting Kate Kane. Interestingly we’ve yet to see any of Ruby Rose outside of her Batwoman persona. It remains to be seen how much of an important role alter-ego Kate will play in the story.

Check out each of the synopses below:

THE FLASH

“Elseworlds, Part 1” — (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV)

EPIC ELSEWORLDS CROSSOVER KICKS OFF TONIGHT — When Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) and Oliver Queen (guest star Stephen Amell) wake up one morning and realize they have swapped bodies with each other, the two set off to find out what disturbed the timeline to cause such a shift. However, things quickly go from bad to worse when they present their case to Team Flash and the gang doesn’t believe them. Barry and Oliver realize they need Supergirl’s (guest star Melissa Benoist) help and travel to Smallville on Earth-38 where they end up meeting Kara’s cousin, Clark Kent (guest star Tyler Hoechlin), and intrepid reporter, Lois Lane (guest star Elizabeth Tulloch). LaMonica Garrett guest stars as The Monitor. Kevin Tancharoen directed the episode written by Eric Wallace & Sam Chalsen (#509). Original airdate 12/9/2018.

While there, they meet the mysterious Kate Kane (guest star Ruby Rose) who provides them with information that leads the group to Arkham Asylum.
