"Previously on V..." "I wanna be sure, father, that this is the right thing to do." "It's time to fight." "5th Column is proving to be a bigger threat than anticipated." "We have the weapon to fight them." "Ryan Nichols." " What makes you can control him?" " We have his child." "She's sick, Ryan." "I can ease her suffering." "All you have to do is join us again." "Thank you, Agent Malik." "The queen will be pleased." "I think that FBI Agent Erica Evans, is in danger." "You're out of options." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on!" "Are you okay?" "How did you find me?" "I knew you were tracking our leads." "We saw the wreckage from the road." "Look at me." "Look at me." " What happened?" " Malik's a Visitor." "I'll be damned." "Let me help you." "You all right?" "You okay?" "I'm fine." "Do not kill her!" "Keep her alive." "We need answers." "Anything and everything she knows about Anna's plans." "Take her back to your place." "I'll meet you there." " Wait, Erica." "What about you?" " I gotta call this in." " What are you doing?" " Giving you a cover story." "Get her into the truck." "Don't be alarmed, Lisa." "Mother, what's happening to me?" "Your body is preparing you for your birthright to be queen." "My skin... it's moving." "It's your breeding skin." "It's begun to grow." "Over the next few months, as it forms, you'll become fertile." "You'll undergo many changes..." "Changes that will permit our race to endure." "What kind of changes?" "The emergence of your true nature... your primal instinct." "It happened to me, and my mother helped me through it." "And before she died," "I promised her that I would mold you into a great leader." "How will I know if I'm ready?" "I'll teach you to lead in my own image." "You'll become just like me." "Lisa's breeding skin has begun to grow." "Everything's right on schedule." "So you've come to gloat." "Her fertility will ensure our survival." "And yet you're concerned." "What would I have to be concerned about?" "The warning I gave you about Lisa's betrayal." "I can see it on your face, working on you." "Suspicion." "Remember when your breeding skin began to grow..." "That's when you first betrayed me." "You were weak." "I did what I had to do to protect our species." "So will Lisa, if you're not careful." "Because I'll do for her what you never did for me..." "Teach her to rule." "Prepare her for what's to come." "In the meantime, daughter, watch your back." "As I had to learn the hard way, the more you think you're helping your child, the more you push them away." "And you got nothing on the guys who did this?" "I told you, Paul." "It was dark." "They were wearing masks." "They pulled up next to us." "They shot out the tires." "The next thing I knew I was upside-down." "It's a miracle you survived." "I'm surprised those 5th Column nut jobs didn't kill you." "They took Malik, and I need to find her." " We were headed for that lead..." " Dead end." "We checked the farmhouse." "There's no lead to the bombers." "Go home." "You're off the case." "It's standard operating procedure, and you know it." "Don't worry." "I'll find Malik." "I just received a report that Agent Malik has been abducted." "The FBI suspects the 5th Column." "They've begun an investigation into her disappearance." "The true nature of the work she was doing must not be exposed." "Take some trackers and retrieve any evidence she may have left behind." "What about the 5th Column... and finding those who took her?" "I have it under control." "Look, Ryan." "Your daughter's not in pain anymore." "You did it on purpose, didn't you?" "You made her sick to force me to help you." "Of course not." "I helped her and will continue to, as I promised." "So now you want me to do my part." " What do you want?" " One of my children has gone missing." "Sarita Malik." "She was co-head of the FBI anti-V terrorism unit." "We believe the 5th Column took her." "I want you to find her and identify those responsible." "It'll take time." "Bring me names by tonight." "My bliss will wear off by then." "I know you don't want to see your daughter suffer, Ryan." "Neither do I." "What are you really saying, Sid?" "Normal DNA looks like this..." "And Tyler's DNA... looks like this." " Half the ladder's been stripped." " How can he survive like this?" "I don't know, but he's made it this far without symptoms or side effects." "But a missing piece?" "What does that mean?" "The V's wanted that space to be empty." "For what?" "Why empty anything out?" "To put something else in." "2x03" " Laid Bair " "Synchro:" "Grishnak, John117, Miniben314, Strex" "Trad:" "Strex, Eliza, TTT, malumilitari" "Relecture:" "Grishnak, TTT, Cable" "Les Lézards" "They messed with my son." " They corrupted Tyler's DNA." " What?" "How do you know?" "Sid confirmed it." "They have done it when I was pregnant." "Yeah, but wouldn't Tyler have shown some signs, symptoms?" "How's something like this even possible?" "Of course it's not possible." "Neither are giant spaceships." " Why would they do this?" " That's what we need to find out." "I can take samples from Ryan, but... without DNA comparisons from a female V's reproductive system, we'll only have half the picture of what they could be planning for Tyler." "I wouldn't do that." "She has fangs." "And a tail, too." "Females can just rip it out whenever they have to." "We were following the lead on Eli Cohn." "Malik decided to show me her true self." "We still gonna hit that farm?" "If radical 5th Column were there, they are long gone by now." "You're a traitor." "Anna will make you pay for turning against her." "What do you say, Erica?" "Time to get some answers?" "You need to understand something." "They have a high threshold for pain." "Now you want to torture her into talking?" "There's really only one way..." "It's to skin her." "You won't have much time." "Skinning her is gonna kill her." "She'll live maybe a half hour, tops." "That's enough time." "I only need one answer..." "What they did to my son." "You want to find out about Tyler." "What makes you think she knows?" "My first partner, now Malik." "Two V partners can't be a coincidence." "They got close to me, they get close to Tyler." "Now hold up." "You told me yourself" "Malik was in the bureau before you were partners." "Meaning what?" "Her original assignment had nothing to do with you, or your son." "Let's find out what she's been doing here all this time." "My mom was attacked by 5th Column." "I keep trying to help her, but she won't let me." "She's an FBI agent." "I'm sure she can protect herself." "I keep trying to warn her about this priest, but she won't listen." "I'm listening." "Tell me." "Why do you think this priest is a threat?" "He might be connected to the 5th Column." "His anti-V sermons are all over the net." "The suicide bomber{\* who blew up the healing centers }went to his parish." "You need to approach this differently." "You need to help your mother if she won't help herself." "Check this out." "Looks like we're not the only ones interested in Malik." "I put a lipstick camera in the tree." "Trackers." "They're trying to pick up on Malik's scent." " Marcus is with them." " Whatever Malik was working on, it's important to Anna, and that makes it important to us." "Where does she live?" "Her apartment?" "Kendrick's sent agents." " They found nothing." " How do you know?" "Because they wouldn't know where or how to look." "Let's go." "Nice place Malik's got." "Lots of security." "Always gotta know who's here." " What are we looking for?" " Safe box." "Every sleeper has one." "Ryan, check it out." "This number's been the more used." "This could be it." "I wondered what that was for." "Contingency cash." " Look at this." " Law enforcement ID." "Great Britain." "We've got Canada, Pakistan." "V tech." "This could come in handy." "This have to do with her assignment?" "This could tell us." "Who are all those people?" "These dates go for back years, before Malik was working with you." "We'll run the names through the database." "Maybe we'll find something to figure out what Malik was doing." "We've got visitors." "Foil." "I need some tinfoil." "We've gotta erase our scent." "All right." "Let's do it." "Thank you for coming, Chad." "I'm sorry it's been so long since we've spoken." "I've been busy." "I know." "I heard about your close call with the suicide bomber." "Luckily, Agent Evans was there to stop her." "What can I do for you?" "As you've experienced firsthand, despite general goodwill on the part of mankind, a few small pockets of hostility still remain." "Residual skepticism from the whole red sky affair." "You played God." "That didn't sit well with people, particularly people of faith." "That's why I called you here." "I need your help." "Do you know anything about this man?" "Not much." "The guy who hit the healing center was one of his parishioners." "The police interviewed him, determined that he wasn't involved." "He's local." "Not much of a profile otherwise." "Perhaps that should change." "I'd like for you to provide a forum for his voice to be heard." "You want me to interview this guy?" "Millions of people watch my show." "Why would you... give a fringe voice that kind of exposure?" "I believe every voice, no matter how small, deserves to have a forum." "Every point of view should be presented." "Isn't that the basis of good journalism?" "You're making a mistake." "She singled you out, we know she's got an ulterior motive." "You can control the interview." "You can edit it, protect me." "Not if she's got a bull's-eye on you." "Like you said, she already does." "This will raise my profile." "The bigger I get, the harder a target I become." "I'm not afraid of her." "You should." "I'm gonna take the risk." "Are you with me or not?" "Whatever Malik's assignment, we'll find it in here." "They all fell off the grid." "There's no financial activity, there's no utilities, no current address." "Are they homeless?" "Runaways?" "People Anna can make disappear, and no one will notice." "Anna's doing alien abductions?" "As in..." "If she's abducting people here, she's doing it all over the world." "The only way that we can stop Anna is to get a step ahead of her." "We need to figure out her plan." "This is the key to eliminating the greatest threat to our survival... the human soul." "How is the human soul a threat?" "It exerts a powerful influence over humans." "If we don't eliminate it, our plans will fail." "There are commonly held notions among humans, the soul is eternal." "After death, it leaves the body." "This machine is engineered to locate and extract it." "I'm ready to begin trial runs." "However, as test subjects will not survive the process, we'll need more than before... hundreds of thousands." "How are you progressing?" "Fortunately, despite Agent Malik's disappearance, it appears our test subjects will still arrive on schedule." "Good." "You okay?" "I think that deep down I wanted Malik's assignment to be Ty, finally get some answers." "If Malik won't give us answers, maybe her body will." " With science boy on the case..." " That'd be science man." "Let me show you this." "These dates in here are dated in the past." "Except for this one." "Sophie Allen." "It's dated today." " Those are the dates they were taken." " Then she's next in line." "If we can find Sophie, then we can stop this." "We can keep Anna from taking anyone else." "Who are those people?" "What do you want with Sophie Allen?" "How many more of them?" "More than you can imagine." "There's a work address in here for her mother." "To be continued." "Hey, father." "Your interview will make tonight's news." "I came by to see if you wanted to watch it..." "No, it's okay." "Why don't you stay for the service?" "I want to address the violence of the last few days that shed the blood of innocent people at the healing center." "You know, I've spoken out against the Visitors, declaring them false gods, calling them intruders." "And while I stand by these claims, we must never forget what defines us." "My wife was killed in the suicide bombing." "It wasn't the V's who killed her." "It was their enemy." "People like you." " I am so sorry for your loss." " What does that get me?" "No amount of talk is gonna bring my wife back." "Or their loved ones." "Come on, stand up, please." "This isn't the time for this." "Or the place." " Please, show some respect." " Respect?" "People are dead because of this jerk." "I understand your anger." "Believe me, I do." " No, you don't." " Yes, I do." "I've your wife's blood on my hands, not them." "You wanna blame someone, you blame me." "You wanna fight?" "You fight me." "Madam?" "Am I in some kind of trouble?" "We're worried your daughter." "I'm here unofficially, as a mother." "You're here about Sophie?" "I have a friend who works at a counseling center." "She was a regular, she's missed her last appointments." "I'm not sure how I can help you." "Sophie ran away six months ago." "I haven't seen her since." "Do you have any leads?" "Any addresses?" "Friends?" " Phone numbers?" " She got caught up with some kids." "They weren't the best influence." "I tried to talk to her, but..." "You misstep and you misstep, and you realize you're losing them, but... it's too late, you've lost them already." "I have a teenager." "I feel that way sometimes, too." "If you think of anything that might help us find her, please..." "Call me." " Thanks." " Wait." "You're the first people to come and ask about her." "I've tried to find her," "The police can't help me because she's over 18." "You're a mother." "You understand." "You?" "Do you have any children?" "A daughter." "Then you know how I feel." "Help me." "Please." "Any luck with Sophie's mom?" "Malik is the only one with answers." " Let's get 'em." " Skinning her will kill her." "I still need her as a test subject." "We'll serve her up, carved up on a platter." "No, I need her alive!" "These tissue samples I've taken," " they're degrading incredibly fast." " It's a defense mechanism." "If we're killed, we can't be studied." "I need more time." "If she dies, any insight her body can give us about the Visitors, or Tyler, will die with her." "It's your son." "It's gotta be your call." "I saw your interview." "Fine work." "I'm not sure it'll have the effect you hoped for." "It'll have the exact effect I hoped for." "The world will pay attention to him." "They would pay attention to this." "So despite your opposition to the V's, you don't condone this recent rash of violence?" "Correct." "I'm not a proponent of violence of any kind against anyone." "And certainly not against my fellow man." "You wanna fight?" "You fight me." "Hold on." "That's only half the story." "I was there." "Jack Landry calmed that crowd down." "That's not what the world is gonna see on your Internet." "A duplicitous priest committing violence in a house of worship." "This sort of story seems to spread rapidly." "Well done." "You helped expose a man who will be brought down by this violent truth." "If Sophie is still out there, she's our best chance for stopping these abductions." "Erica, nobody would judge you if you picked Tyler." "How can I put my kid's life before so many others?" "Sometimes you just... gotta protect your own." "One last time." "Where's Sophie?" "Skin her." "I know what you're thinking, that you can stay strong, die before you tell us what we want to know." "There's two options here." "Epinephrine." "This'll keep you alive." "Another ten or so hours... of good, hard fun." "Or option number two, a sedative." "This'll put you right to beddy-bye, let you die peacefully." "Personally, I vote... to keep you alive." "How can you do this to one of your own?" "He may be a Visitor, but he is nothing like you." "I promise you this..." "You will never find that girl." "Answers." "That's enough." "Answers." "Answers now." "We can end this." "Ed Cantrill." "He poses as a driver for the Midnight Samaritan, delivering food to the homeless." "That's how he finds his victims?" "Where?" "New Jersey." "Lonergan Farm." "A shuttle..." "When?" "You saw the date." "Tonight." "My son Tyler?" "What do you know about Anna's plans for him?" "Nothing." "I don't know anything else." "I swear to you." "Give her the sedative." "Ryan, it's the van." "Freeze!" "I got it." "Don't do it!" "Don't!" "Help me." "Help me." "What's happening?" "It's over." "You're gonna be okay." "She's been drugged." "It's a fail-safe in case she escaped." "She won't remember a thing." "We're gonna take you home." " There could be more out there." " Take her to the car." "Over there." "We're still missing people." "There's nothing we can do." "How's my daughter doing?" "Are you instructing her as a directed?" "She's proven to be a quick learner." "We're ready to test our first subject." "Even when it makes no sense to fight, they do." "Water, muscle, bone, tissue." "Each will be removed from the corpus taking subject to the brink of death." "What remains, the last substance in his dying breath, that should be the soul." "Joshua, stop." "Is something wrong?" "Good." "It is only one life." "Nothing compared to the future of our species." "You must learn that in order to be queen." "Continue the experiment." "No, not you, Joshua." "Please, don't." "Help me." "Please." "Look into his eyes." "Look into his soul." "Now take it." "Please." "Don't." "You're gonna be okay, Sophie." "You're very brave." "You guys... what happened to me?" "I can't remember anything." "You were abducted, and now you're safe." "That is all that you need to know." "The rest of it is just a bad dream." "We promised your mother we'd bring you home." "Feels good, doesn't it?" " We only saved one." " To that mother, one is everything." "This is what we're fighting for, to keep our children safe." "We have to savor these wins." "I wish I could." "We're gonna get your daughter back." " I know." " Good." "'Cause if we lose hope, we lose this fight." "You wanna fight?" "You fight me." "It's gone viral." "Anna had me build you up so she could tear you down." "I knew Anna would try manipulate my interview somehow, but this..." "The guy who started the fight..." "I saw his eyes." "He wasn't human." "Anna must've planted him there." "I never told you it was gonna be easy." "Look, maybe I can put out another piece." " Show people the truth." " No, they've already seen what she wanted them to see." "It's okay." " I'll weather this storm." " You're on Anna's radar." "That is not an easy storm." "Believe me, I've been there." "Maybe not." "But I choose to have faith." "It's all I can rely on now." "You're a brave man, father." "So are you." "Despite what's happened today, you have to stay close to her." " That's your role." " Even if it costs you yours?" " What happens then?" " The 5th Column will hold strong, as long as we have men like you fighting with us." "It's time you met the others." "It's good to see you again, Agent Evans." "How's the 5th Column task force?" "My day job." "Call me Erica." "Thank you for the tip on Malik." "That was a very gutsy thing," " sticking your neck out." " It was the least I could do." "You saved my ass from that suicide bomber." "I don't know." "I don't like this." "He's burned us before." " Give him a chance." " He's right." "I have burned you." "But I'm here to make amends." "Use me." "My position with Anna." "I know her better than anyone." "I can help." "Anna only tells you what she wants you to know." "You have no idea what she's capable of." "Or who she really is." "This is what they look like." "Anna... looks like this underneath?" "What do they want?" "Why don't they kill everybody and take over?" "Because they want us." "You sure you're ready for this?" "You did a wonderful thing today, capturing that footage on your cell phone." "I'm glad you told me to go." "Now the world's gonna see what a threat the Jack Landrys are, and more people like you will help us." "That's all that I want." "I know." "So does Lisa." "You'll continue to watch out for us." "I will." "Good." "Please be careful." "You're not just a friend, Tyler." "You're like a son to me." "Come in." "What's the matter?" "What happened?" "Talk to me." "I can't do this." "I'm not like you." "I'm a Visitor." "Okay, you listen to me." "It's gonna be all right, okay?" "Whatever it is, just tell me." "Talk to me." "My mother..." "She's trying to change me." "She can't change what's inside you." "I don't have anyone to talk to." "Yes, you do." "You have me." "I proved you wrong today, mother." "I tested Lisa." "She passed." "As you passed all my tests?" "Watch her..." "Carefully." "I'm watching her every move." "I tried to make you like me once, too." "But you and I were always quite different." "Caution was not... has never been... your nature." "Caution may not be my strong suit, but foresight is." "Good." "You're going to need it." "She's so peaceful when I give her bliss, isn't she?" "So..." "What did you discover today?" "I found the 5th Column." "I know who took Malik."
