THE FLASH: "FLASH VS. ARROW"

The CW has released images and a description from "Power Outage," the episode of The Flash airing on Tuesday, Dec. 2.

Here's how the episode is described:

"Barry (Grant Gustin) is thrilled when Oliver (guest-star Stephen Amell), Felicity (guest-star Emily Bett Rickards) and Diggle (guest-star David Ramsey) come to Central City to investigate a case involving a deadly boomerang. Excited about teaming up with his friend, Barry asks Oliver if he'd like to help him stop Ray Bivolo (guest-star Paul Anthony), the meta-human Barry is currently tracking. Bivolo causes people to lose control of their emotions and has been using that skill to rob banks. Unfortunately, the superhero partnership doesn't go as smoothly as Barry expected. When Oliver tells Barry he still has a lot to learn, Barry sets out to prove him wrong by attempting to stop Bivolo alone. However, when Bivolo infects Barry and sets him on a rage rampage, everyone is in danger, and the only one who can stop him is the Arrow. Meanwhile, Iris (Candice Patton) is furious when Eddie (Rick Cosnett) tries to get a task force to stop The Flash, Joe and Dr. Wells (Tom Cavanagh) agree the Arrow is a bad influence on Barry, and Caitlin and Cisco deal with a new team in S.T.A.R. Labs."

The episode was directed by Glen Winter, with story by Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Ben Sokolowski and Brooke Eikmeier.
