The trailer for the show's latest episode sparked great intrigue among fans. The latest episode seems similar to the fabled Flashpoint, which dealt with alternate timelines and attempted to figure out how to deal with a distorted one. Additionally, some long-term story arcs are rumored to start in the first episode after the Armageddon series.

The official synopsis for the upcoming episode, Impulsive Expressive Disorder, gives a brief insight into what fans can expect. It reads,

"Picking up where season seven left off, after returning home from a visit for their parent’s vow renewal, Bart (guest star Jordan Fisher) and Nora (guest star Jessica Parker Kennedy) quickly realize that things are not exactly as they left them. The duo race to repair any fissures in the timeline and restore everything to the way it is supposed to be."

Since the five episodes of Armageddon can be considered a deviation from the original storyline, this episode is the true successor to season seven's intense finale involving the speedster war. The episode has been directed by David McWhirter and written by Thomas Pound.
