What happens when The Atom and Hawkgirl walk into a party in the '50s?

It may sound like the set-up for a cheesy joke about superheroes, but DC's Legends of Tomorrow is basically heading to Pleasantville tonight...and things are going to get awkward. We have an exclusive sneak peek from the episode, "Night of the Hawk," which finds Ray (Brandon Routh) and Kendra (Ciara Renée) causing a stir among their neighbors as they pretend to be a married couple in a small town in Oregon. Turns out, an interracial couple at a dinner party in the '50s definitely garners attention.

In the clip, one of their neighbors asks Kendra to grab her another drink, automatically assuming she is working at the party. "I guess this whole interracial marriage thing really is a novelty," Kendra says. But Ray isn't going to let the party-goers' opinions get to him, reassuring her, "Go ahead and let them stare. I've got the most beautiful woman in the room on my arm."

Cute, right? Too bad Vandal Savage (Casper Crump) decides to show up at that exact moment...and you HAVE to see what he looks like in the '50s. Press play on the exclusive video above to see the couple's Pleasantville-esque party experience go down. 

It'll be interesting to see how Ray and Kendra handle posing as a married couple after their surprising first kiss in last week's episode, after she realizing she has feelings for him.

As for what the other Legends are up to in the 1950s, Stein (Victor Garber) and Sara (Caity Lotz) will go undercover at a psychiatric hospital, where Savage is working as a doctor, you know, when he's not hosting dinner parties. Things will take an interesting turn, however, when sparks fly between Sara and Lindsay (Ali Liebert), a nurse working at the hospital. (Sorry, Sara and Snart shippers.)

DC's Legends of Tomorrow airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on the CW.
