History Recap / LegendsOfTomorrowS5CrisisOnInfiniteEarthsHourFive

* ThatsWhatIWouldDo: Once the heroes realize "Beebo" is just a distraction, it's Mick -- a former bank robber -- who deduces the purpose of the diversion.

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Lex Luthor, in the new Earth-Prime.

* {{Bookends}}: The Crisis began with the Monitor narrating the start of the Multiverse, the Age of Heroes, and the erasure of multiple alternate Earths. The Crisis ends with the same narration, this time from Oliver, as the multiverse is reborn.

** Several characters from different Earths briefly appear during the final montage, including the Series/{{Titans|2018}} (once again via archived footage), Series/{{Swamp Thing|2019}}, and the Series/{{Doom Patrol|2019}}. Even Series/{{Stargirl}} (alongside the rest of the new Justice Society) appears [[EarlyBirdCameo prior to the debut of her own show]].

** When discussing ways to deal with the Anti-Monitor, Mick suggests tossing him into the sun and blowing him up, which is how he was ultimately killed in the original comic. The idea doesn't fly as well here.

** Right as Mick and Frost are about to face off with another Anti-Monitor ghost, a blast of lightning appears...[[BigDamnHeroes Jefferson is there for the rescue!]]

* FireIceLightning: The trio of Heatwave, Killer Frost and Black Lightning defending STAR Labs.

* LampshadeHanging: Rene and John mention how they too had a "Rory" in their team, when sharing a drink with Mick.

-->'''Nash:''' God... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry...

'''Barry:''' ''[scoffs]'' Your Earth? This... [[OhCrap is my Earth...]]

** The DEO gets an alert of someone attacking the city, which Kara races off to deal. We then cut to a vortex of lightning... being manipulated by ''[[CosmicRetcon Weather Witch]]''. And then Barry shows up as backup for Kara, revealing that this is not an Earth-38 version of Weather Witch but the result of Earths 1 and 38 merging into an Earth-Prime.

* YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle: The Paragons saw the Anti-Monitor get killed in the last episode, so they have reason to believe it's all over. The threats they've tackled ever since (Weather Witch, Sargon the Sorceror) are minor in comparison... until a Shadow Demon attacks Barry and Sara.

!!Tropes Used in this Episode:

* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: An amorphous Beebo at the beginning, summoned by Sargon the Sorcerer, and the Anti-Monitor at the end.

* BookEnds: The Crisis began with the Monitor narrating the start of the Multiverse, the Age of Heroes, and the erasure of multiple alternate Earths. The Crisis ends with the same narration, this time from Oliver, as the multiverse is reborn.

* EarlyBirdCameo: The New Earth-2 features the ''Series/Stargirl2020'' cast months before the show's series premiere.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Ava being on the Waverider instead of the Time Bureau headquarters hints at the Bureau's fate in the following ''Legends'' [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E1MeetTheLegends episode]].

* HeroOfAnotherStory: ''Series/{{Stargirl|2020}}'', ''Series/{{Titans|2018}}'', ''Film/GreenLantern2011'', ''Series/SwampThing2019'', and ''Series/DoomPatrol2019'' all appear in the closing montage.

* ImStandingRightHere: [[HumanAliens Kara]] momentarily takes offense at Sara assuming the giant Beebo is "alien."

* ItsPersonal: Mick is pissed when the giant Beebo disrupts his autograph session.

* LampshadeHanging: Rene and John mention how they too had a 'Rory' in their team, when sharing a drink with Mick.

'''Kara:''' ...I thought-\\

** Oliver Queen's narration of TheMultiverse's rebirth takes place before the scene of Barry forming the Justice League.[[note]]it would be more fitting if it's the actual closing shot[[/note]] However, taken another way, it's basically Oliver [[PassingTheTorch passing responsibility to his surviving friends in the League]].

* MergedReality: The new Earth the Paragons ended up creating has enough elements of Earth-1, Earth-38 and the ''Series/BlackLightning2018'' Earth to effectively be an amalgamation of the three.

-->'''Nash:''' God...I'm sorry...I'm so sorry...

** This isn't the first time a weather-manipulator normally trading blows with the Flash suddenly became a Supergirl villain. The {{Franchise/DCAU}} did it first, technically [[note]]in the DCAU, Weather ''Wizard'' is an enemy of Super''man'', even becoming leader of the Superman Revenge Squad[[/note]] becoming a GenderFlip for both characters.
** When discussing ways to deal with the Anti-Monitor, Mick suggests tossing him into the sun and blowing him up, which is how he was ultimately killed in the original comic. The idea doesn't fly as well here.

** In the montage showing the rebuilt multiverse, Earth-2 is the home of the Justice Society, from the upcoming series ''Series/Stargirl2020''. Its version of Wildcat is Yolanda Montez, who, in the comics, took the mantle of Wildcat in the pages of ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths'', in 1985.

** Earth-9 is restored, still home of the ''[[Series/{{Titans2018}} Titans]]''.

** Earth-19 is restored, and is now home to ''[[Series/SwampThing2019 Swamp Thing]]''; the fact that the events of ''Swamp Thing'' were established without the changes local to the pre-Crisis Earth-19 suggests the Earth-19 we were familiar with is gone for good.
** Earth-21 is home to the ''[[Series/DoomPatrol2019 Doom Patrol]]''.

'''Barry:''' ''[scoffs]'' Your Earth? This...[[OhCrap is my Earth...]]

** The DEO gets an alert of someone attacking the city, which Kara races off to deal. We then cut to a vortex of lightning...being manipulated by ''[[CosmicRetcon Weather Witch]]''. And then Barry shows up as backup for Kara, revealing that this is not an Earth-38 version of Weather Witch but the result of Earths 1 and 38 merging into an Earth-Prime.
** Right as Mick and Frost are about to face off with another Anti-Monitor ghost, a blast of lightning appears...[[BigDamnHeroes Jefferson is there for the rescue!]]

* YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle: The Paragons saw the Anti-Monitor get killed in the last episode, so they have reason to believe it's all over. The threats they've tackled ever since (Weather Witch, Sargon the Sorceror) are minor in comparison...until a Shadow Demon attacks Barry and Sara.

* RealityEnsues: The Hall of Justice is derelict and in need of maintenance and repair. An obvious sign of neglect on the owner's part, since neither he nor any of his crew have used it for over three years.

* HeroOfAnotherStory: ''Series/{{Stargirl|2020}}'', ''Series/{{Titans|2018}}'', ''Film/GreenLantern'', ''Series/SwampThing2019'', and ''Series/DoomPatrol2019'' all appear in the closing montage.

** Earth-12 is home to the Green Lantern Corps, with footage used from the [[Film/GreenLantern 2011 film]].

* KarmaHoudini: Unlike on Earth-38, where the public was aware of how evil Lex Luthor was, on Earth-Prime, he's seen as a selfless hero to the public despite very much still being a villain in secret. Given he's one of the seven Paragons that helped form the new Multiverse, it's likely he did this himself.

** Several characters from different Earths briefly appear during the final montage, including the Series/{{Titans}} (once again via archived footage), Series/{{Swamp Thing|2019}}, and the Series/{{Doom Patrol|2019}}. Even Series/{{Stargirl}} (alongside the Justice Society) appears [[EarlyBirdCameo prior to the debut of her own show]].

** John and Lyla have their son John Jr. ''and'' daughter, Sara, undoing the latter's RetGone as a result of Flashpoint.

* MergedReality: The new Earth the Paragons ended up creating has enough elements of Earth-1, Earth-38, and the ''Series/BlackLightning2018'' Earth to effectively be an amalgamation of the three.

** PlayedForLaughs: After Sara informs Nate and Ava that she and Ray was busy "saving the multiverse", they both get incensed with the fact that she got roped into another crossover. Ava in particular accuses the others of ''kidnapping'' her.

** Barry mentions that Wally told him the story about [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS3E18TheGoodTheBadAndTheCuddly when he and the Legends formed a giant Beebo with the six Totems]].

** J'onn projects to everybody the truth about what happened.

* WrittenInAbsence: Sara had previously stated that she made an agreement so the Legends do not have to do another crossover. While some appear in this episode, others don't: Charlie, Constantine, Mona, Nora, and Behrad[[note]]Shayan Sobhian isn't credited, but Tala Ashe as Zari was despite being {{Ret Gone}}d at the end of Season 4[[/note]] are all absent in this episode.

* AmbiguousSituation: The fates of the pre-Crisis Earth-16, Earth-18, [[Series/Batman1966 Earth-66]], Earth-74, Earth-75, [[Film/Batman1989 Earth-89]], [[Series/TheFlash1990 Earth-90]], Earth-99, [[Series/{{Smallville}} Earth-167]], [[Series/BirdsOfPrey Earth-203]] and [[Series/Lucifer2016 Earth-666]] are not shown or mentioned after TheMultiverse reboot. For the matter, whether or not the post-crisis [[Series/Stargirl2020 Earth-2]] and [[Series/SwampThing2019 Earth-19]] retain any of their pre-Crisis denizens are not touched upon. WordOfGod did reveal that Earth-167 did survive. They also implied that all the Cameo universes were restored in some form as DC wouldn't let them blow up all their previous franchises and properties without them restoring them later.
