Sneak peek and synopsis for the upcoming episode of "DC's Legends of Tomorrow" show that the heroes will need to rush back to Ray Palmer's (Brandon Routh) childhood to undo a mistake that will cost him his life.

According to the synopsis of the fourth episode of "DC's Legends of Tomorrow" season 3, the heroes will be traveling back in time — in 1988, to be exact — to accomplish their mission.

Meanwhile, in a 30-second video teaser for the said episode titled "Phone Home," Ray asks the Legends with a sound of confusion after seeing his child self in the frontpage of a newspaper dated 1988 with headline: "Body of Missing Boy Found."

In the present time, Ray asks the Legends: "I'm in the paper and I'm dead?"

The synopsis adds that Ray meets an untimely death in 1988 "because [the Legends] broke time." In the trailer, young Ray is inside his room feeding someone (or something) with a candy bar as the older Ray watches from outside through the window saying, "I think I know what kills me."

The video teaser does not show the identity of the chocolate-loving creature, but the synopsis hints that it is a "time-displaced baby Dominator." The episode teaser adds that young Ray's interaction with the baby Dominator is "putting him in harm's way with the government and the Dominator's mother."

On another scene, Zari Adrianna Tomas (Tala Ashe) is seen trying to convince young Ray that she is there to save him. Meanwhile, the synopsis also hints that Zari will have to deal with her own conflicts as she is still finding it hard to trust the team and find her place among the Legends.

Meanwhile, the "Phone Home" episode will also show Martin Stein (Victor Garber) starting his own, secret project inside the team's ship. However, his movements will be monitored by Mick Rory (Dominic Purell) and Jax (Franz Drameh) and such will raise their suspicions.

"Phone Home" will air on Tuesday, Oct. 31, at 9 p.m. EDT on The CW.
