That's my speculation for how the next two episodes will go, though I'm a bit more certain of my "Before the Dawn" and "Cornered" speculation than I am my "True Colors" spec. WOW, I like your theory of how the story will take on from Darkest. Well, it does make sense too. But from the comic-con trailer there's a scene where miss martian and (black manta or kaldur) are looking at each other, maybe it might occur in Before the Dawn.
 * 1) "Before the Dawn" begins, Blue Beetle manages to escape captivity early in the episode, finds Miss M and the Team, and the hunt for the heroes begins. Arsenal joins them.
 * 2) The captured Team members are rescued, it is discovered that the Partner is the Reach. The Team rescues the stolen teens also.
 * 3) The Team & teens escape the Reach, Zeta to Hall of Justice, are followed by the Beetle-like Reach agent we've seen in "Alienated" and "Salvage", the Hall goes into lock down, "Before the Dawn" finishes.
 * 4) "Cornered" begins, and the Team (including Arsenal) are "trapped inside the Hall of Justice for a cage match against a brutal alien gladiator", the gladiator being the Beetle-like Reach agent.
 * 5) The Cave is surrounded by a kind of force field as seen in Comic Con trailer, army attempts to gain access, but fail.
 * 6) By some means, the conflict between the Team and Reach agent ends, as does "Cornered".
 * 7) "True Colors" begins, with the Team somehow having learned that LexCorp has an alliance with the Reach. Tim Drake/Robin leads the squad to investigate.
 * 8) More excellent Luthor dialogue, and I'm betting that Luthor taunts Robin a bit about being Robin, and having replaced the previous deceased Robin. I'm sure Luthor knows Jason died from information acquired through the Light, though I doubt he knows the identity of any of the Robins.
 * 9) Through this taunting, I'm thinking we'll learn a little about Jason's death, perhaps even the means by which he died.
 * 10) Conflict ends, as does "True Colors".
