The Great Brain Robbery
Dr. Fate tries using magic to track Gorilla Grodd by reading Flash's mind. At that very moment Lex Luthor is using scientific means to try to read Grodd's mind. Unexpectedly Flash and Luthor change bodies. Luthor, now in Flash's body, wrecks havoc on the Justice League's Watchtower as he tries to escape back to Earth.
Flash stumbles quite a bit after he wakes up in Luthor's body and hilarity ensues. There is already dissension in the ranks of the Legion of Doom. Dr. Polaris is leading a group of villains challenging Luthor's leadership. Grodd is the only one who knows what happened and he refuses to help change things back to the way they were.
In addition to Dr. Fate, there a number of other heroes who show up in this episode: Mr. Terrific, Red Tornado, Dr. Light, Steel, Ice. There's a fair amount of action mixed in with the humor.
I only had a sketchy recollection of this episode before watching it this time. It was much better than I remembered. This is the funniest episode of the season so far. I laughed several times. Most importantly it all flowed together well. Nothing felt tacked on or out of place.
