"NARRATOR:" "Previously on V:" "MAN:" "I wanna be sure, Father, that this is the right thing to do." "It's time to fight." "Fifth Column is a bigger threat than anticipated." "We have the weapon to fight them:" "Ryan." "You think you can control him?" "ANNA:" "We have his child." "She's sick." "I can ease her suffering." " All you have to do is join us again." " Okay." "Thank you." "Your queen will be pleased." "I think that FBI Agent Erica Evans is in danger." "You're out of options here." "[GASPS]" "[GRUNTING]" "Come on." "Come on." "Come on!" "[BOTH YELLING]" "[BONE CRACKS THEN SCREAMS]" "[TIRES SQUEAL]" " Jack?" " Erica!" " Erica." "Are you okay?" " Yeah." " How did you find me?" " Knew you were tracking leads on the suicide bombers." "We saw the wreckage." "Look at me." "Look at me." "Okay." " What happened?" " Malik's a Visitor." " I'll be damned." "ERICA:" "Yeah." "JACK:" "Let me help you." "ERICA:" "Okay." " You all right?" " Yeah." " You okay?" " I'm fine." "[GUN COCKS]" "No." "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." " What about you?" " I gotta call this in." " What are you doing?" " Giving you a story." "Get her into the truck." "[GASPS]" "Don't be alarmed, Lisa." "Mother, what's happening to me?" "ANNA:" "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." " No." "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." "You got nothing on the guys who did this?" "I told you, it was dark, they were wearing masks." "They pulled next to us, shot the tires." "Next thing I knew, I was upside down." "It's a miracle you survived." "I'm surprised those Fifth Column nut jobs didn't kill you." " Well, they took Malik." "I need to find her." " We were headed for that lead..." " Dead end." "We checked the farm." "No lead to the bombers." "Go home." " You're off the case." " Paul." "Evans, 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 Fifth Column." "They've begun an investigation into her disappearance." "The true nature of the work that she was doing for us must not be exposed." "Take some trackers and retrieve any evidence she may have left behind." "What about the Fifth Column?" "Finding those who took her?" "I have it under control." "[BEEPING]" "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?" "ANNA:" "One of my children has gone missing." "Sarita Malik." "She was co-head of the FBI Anti-V Terrorism Unit." "We believe the Fifth 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 wanna see your daughter suffer, Ryan." "Neither do I." "ERICA:" "What are you really saying, Sid?" "Normal DNA looks like this." " Okay." " And Tyler's DNA..." "[KEYBOARD CLACKING] ...looks like this." "Half the ladder's been stripped." " How can he survive?" " I don't know but he's made it this far without symptoms." "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." "Oh, God." "They messed with my son." "They corrupted Tyler's DNA." " What?" "How do you know?" " Sid confirmed it." "They must've done it when I was pregnant." "Wouldrt 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 still only have half the picture." "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 a lead on Eli Cohn." " Malik decided to show me her true self." " We still gonna hit that farm up?" "If radical Fifth 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?" "Hold up." "You need to understand something, okay?" "Visitors have a high threshold for pain." "You wanna 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." "I know you wanna find out about Tyler, Erica." " What makes you think she knows?" " My first partner, now Malik." "Two V partners can't be a coincidence." "They got close to me to get close to Tyler." "Hold up." "You told me yourself Malik was in the Bureau before you were partners." " Meaning what?" " Meaning that her original assignment probably had nothing to do with you." "Or your son." "So let's find out what she's been doing here all this time." "My mom was attacked by Fifth Column." "I keep trying to help her, but she won't let me." "She's an FBI Agent, Tyler." "I'm sure she can protect herself." "I keep trying to warn her about this priest, Jack Landry but she won't listen to me." "Well, I'm listening." "Tell me." "Why do you think this priest is a threat?" "He might be connected to the Fifth Column." "His anti-V sermons are all over the Net." "The suicide bomber who blew up the Healing Centers went to his parish." "I think you need to approach this differently, Tyler." "You need to help your mother if she won't help herself." "Hey, guys." "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 sent agents." " They didn't find anything." "How do you know?" "They wouldn't know where or how to look." "Let's go." "Nice place Malik's got." "Lots of security." "Gotta know who's knocking on your door." " What are we looking for?" " Safe box." "Every sleeper has one." "Hey, Ryan." "Check it out." "This number's been used more than the other ones." "This could be it." "I wondered what that was for." "Contingency cash." " Look at all this." " Look at all this law-enforcement ID." "Great Britain." "We've got Canada, we have Pakistan." "V tech." "This'll come in handy." "What does this have to do with her assignment?" "This could tell us." "Who are all those people?" "These dates go back years, way before Malik was working with you." "We'll run the names through the Bureau database when we get back." "Maybe we'll find something that will help us figure out what Malik was doing." "Hey." "We've got visitors." "Foil." "I need some tin foil." "We've gotta erase our scent." "Okay." "Come on, Ryan." "Let's do it." "ANNA:" "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 Fifth Column suicide bomber." "CHAD:" "Mm-hm." "Luckily, Agent Evans was there to stop her." "So, what can I do for you, Anna?" "Well, as you've experienced first-hand 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 some 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 wasrt 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." " She's got an ulterior motive." " You can control the interview." " Edit it." "Protect me." " Lf she's got a bull's-eye on you, I can't." "Like you said, she already does." "This interview will raise my profile." "The bigger I get, the harder a target I become." "I'm not afraid of her, Chad." "You should be." "I'm gonna take the risk." "Are you with me or not?" "Whatever Malik's assignment was, we'll find it in here." "These people fell off the grid." "There's no financial activity, there's no utilities, no current address." "They're homeless." "Runaways." "People Anna can make disappear and no one will notice." "So wait, Anna's doing alien abductions?" "As in:" "If she's abducting people here, she's doing it everywhere." "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 the survival of our species, 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." "JOSHUA:" "There are some 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 we've ever needed before." "Hundreds of thousands." "How are you progressing?" "Fortunately, despite Agent Malik's disappearance it appears our test subjects will still arrive on schedule." "ANNA:" "Good." "Hi." "[GASPS THEN SCREAMS]" "You okay?" "I think that, deep down, I wanted Malik's assignment to be Tyler." "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." "Hey, guys, let me show you this." "See, these dates in here they're dated in the past, right?" "Except for this one." "Sophie Allen." "It's dated today." "Maybe those are the dates they were taken." " Then she's next in line." " Lf we can find Sophie, we can stop this." "We can keep Anna from taking anyone else." "Who are those people?" "What do you want with Sophie Allen?" "[GROWLS]" "How many more of them are there?" "More than you can imagine." "There's a work address in here for her mother." "Let's go." "To be continued." "Hey, Father, your interview will make tonight's news." "I came by to see if you wanted to watch it, but..." "It's okay, Chad." "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." "As 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 yesterday." "It wasrt the V's who killed her, it was their enemies." "People like you." "It's okay." "It's okay." " I am so sorry for your loss." " Yeah?" "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." "MAN 1:" "Hey, hey." "No, no, no." "Wait." "No." "No, no, no." "No." "MAN 2:" "Stop." "MAN 3:" "Come on." "I understand your anger." "Believe me, I do." " Oh, you..." " Yes, I do." "I'm the one with your wife's blood on my hands, not them." "You wanna blame someone, you blame me." "You wanna fight you fight me." "Betty Allen?" "FBI." " Am I in some kind of trouble?" " We're worried your daughter might be." "I'm here unofficially." "As a mother." " You're here about Sophie?" " I have a friend who works with teens at a counseling center." "Sophie was a regular but she's missed her appointments." "I'm not sure I can help." "Sophie ran away six months ago." "I haven't seen her since." "Do you have any leads?" "Any, uh, addresses?" "Friends?" " Phone numbers?" " She got caught up with older kids." "They werert the best influence." "I tried to talk to her, but..." "You misstep, and 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 everything 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." "Thank you, Betty." "Any luck with Sophie's mom?" "Malik is the only one with answers." "Then let's get them." "Wait." "You said skinning her will kill her." "I still need her as a test subject." "So we'll serve her up carved up on a platter." "No." "I need her alive." "These samples I've taken, they're degrading fast." "It's a defense mechanism." "If we're taken or 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." "Not sure it'll have the effect you hoped for." "It'll have the exact effect I hoped for." "I wanted the world to pay attention to him so they would pay attention to this." "So despite your opposition to the V's  you don't condone this recent rash of violence against them?" "Correct." "I'm not a proponent of violence of any kind." "Against anyone." "Certainly not against my fellow man." "You wanna fight  you fight me." "Hang on a minute." "That's only half the story." "I was there." "Jack Landry calmed that crowd down." "Unfortunately, that's not what the rest of 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." "ERICA:" "If Sophie is still out there she's our best chance for stopping these abductions." "Erica, nobody will judge you if you pick Tyler." "How can I put my kid's life before so many others?" "Sometimes you just..." "You just gotta protect your own." "One last time." "Where's Sophie?" "Skin her." "[FLESH TEARS THEN SCREAMING]" "I know what you're thinking." "That you can stay strong, die before you tell us what we wanna know." "Hobbes." "There's two options here, love." "Epinephrine." "This'll keep you alive." "Another 10 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." "But personally, I vote to keep you alive." "[GRUNTS]" "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." "[CHUCKLING]" " Aah!" "ERICA:" "Answers." "Ryan, that's enough." "Answers." "[SARITA SCREAMING]" "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 Farms." "A shuttle." "[COUGHING]" "When?" "You..." "You saw the date." "It's 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." "[SIGHS]" "[WHISPERS] Ryan." "It's the van." "[SOPHIE SCREAMING]" "SOPHIE:" "Help!" "Freeze!" "SOPHIE:" "Help!" "[SCREAMING]" "I got it." "Don't do it." "Don't do it." "Don't!" "[SOPHIE SOBBING]" "SOPHIE:" "Help me." "RYAN:" "Sophie?" "Help me." " Sophie." "SOPHIE:" "What's happening?" "It's over." "Okay, sweetheart?" "You're gonna be okay." "She's been drugged." "It's a failsafe in case she escaped." " She won't remember a thing." " Sophie, we're gonna take you home." "There could be more out there." "Take her to the car." "[SHUTTLE HUMMING]" "Hey." "Hear that?" "No." "Those are the missing people." "No." "There's nothing we can do now." "ANNA:" "How's my daughter doing?" "Are you instructing her as I directed?" "She's proving to be a quick learner." "We're ready to test our first subject." "[GRUNTS]" "Even when it makes no sense to fight, they do." "Joshua." "JOSHUA:" "Water, muscle, bone, tissue." "Each will be removed from the corpus, taking the subject to the brink of death." "What remains, the last substance in his dying breath that should be the soul." "[BOY SCREAMING]" "Joshua, stop." "Is something wrong?" "No." "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." "Lisa." "Please." "Don't." "Help me." "Please." "Look into his eyes." "Look into his soul." "Now take it." "BOY:" "Please." "Don't." "[GRUNTS]" "[BOY SCREAMING]" "ERICA:" "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." "Betty?" "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." "Ryan." "We're gonna get your daughter back." " I know." "ERICA:" "Good." "Because 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 and manipulate my interview somehow, but this..." "The guy who started the fight I saw his eyes." "He wasrt human." "Anna must've planted him there." "I never told you this was gonna be easy." "Look, maybe I can put out another piece." "Show people the truth." "They've 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 to weather." "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." "And despite what's happened today, you have to stay close to Anna." " That's your role in this fight." " Even if it costs you yours?" "What happens then?" "The Fifth Column will hold strong." "As long as we have men like you fighting with us." "It's time you met the others." "CHAD:" "It's good to see you again, Agent Evans." "How's the Fifth Column Task Force?" "My day job." "Call me Erica." "Thank you for the tip on Malik." "It was a gutsy thing, sticking your neck out like that." "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." " No." "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." " Oh, my God." " This is what they look like." "Anna looks like this underneath?" "Well, what do they want?" "Why don't they just kill everybody and take over?" "Because they want us." "Chad, 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 can 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." "But please be careful." "You're not just a friend, Tyler." "You're like a son to me." "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "Lisa?" "Come in." "What's the matter?" "What happened?" "Lisa." "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." "Lisa, you have me." "[WHISPERS] Hey." "[SOBS]" "ERICA:" "It's okay." "Shh, shh, shh." "I proved you wrong today, Mother." "I tested Lisa, and 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 Fifth Column." "I know who took Malik." "[English" " US" " SDH]"
