"How many times have I warned you your hatred would cost you your faith?" "The hostage has now been identified as Erica Evans." "I have no illusions I'm gonna walk out of here alive." " You and Fierro must." " You want me to leave?" " Prove me right about you, Erica." " You betrayed your friends." "I can never forgive you." "I have an assignment for you." "Bring this within 100 yards of Eli Cohn's building." "If you had stopped the Fifth Column, then maybe Dad would be alive!" "Tyler." "I can't tell you how sorry I am about your father's death." "Thomas tells me you've adapted nicely to life on the mother ship." "You've embraced the pilot training program." "Yes." "Everything's been great up here." "Thank you." "Before one can begin deep-space flight all pilots must take one final physical examination." "A formality, of course." "It all starts here." "The examination will assess Tyler's DNA to assure he's medically ready." "Have Joshua report back with the results." " Yes, my Queen." " Finally, everything's falling into place." "Eli Cohn and Fifth Column have been obliterated." "Marcus will recover from his injuries." "And Concordia moves forward." "Landing sites for breeding ships can begin construction." "And with Tyler aboard, we can begin the next phase of interbreeding." "I'm surprised you didn't bring a hatbox." "Heh." "Don't worry, I won't crowd your closet space." "I'll leave plenty of room for all your cool black T-shirts." " Yeah." " Look, Hobbes thanks for the offer to let me stay here." "It's only temporary until I can find a place." "Twelve years in the church, my whole life fits into two duffel bags." "What's the over-under on you killing each other within the week?" "Erica, I've been trying to reach you." " You okay?" " I'm fine." "Thanks." "Have you talked to Tyler?" "Not since Joe's funeral." "He's on the ship." "Won't return my calls." "I don't wanna talk about it." "I'm sorry." "Who the hell's that?" "That is Fierro." "Eli's man." "I asked him to meet us here." "You gave him my address?" "We need to trust this guy." "He's our only conduit in the army we need to take Anna down." "You are still on bereavement leave." "Are you ready to jump back into this?" "Anna wants a war?" "I'm gonna give her one." "Let him in." "John Fierro, this is Kyle Hobbes, Jack Landry." "My top lieutenants." "Good to meet you." "Well, I walked through fire with Eli." "If he trusted you, so do I." "I'm glad to hear it." "Because I'm ready to assume leadership of the Fifth Column as Eli requested." "There's a group of trusted lieutenants from around the world." "Eli relied on them." "In the wake of his death, they're gathering in Bangkok." "You need to be there." "Fake IDs have gotten me in and out of the East a time or two." "I guess we're going to Bangkok." "How do we get started?" "Vitals are excellent, but his phosphorus levels are not as high as they need to be." "Red Rain should have infused him with phosphorus for interbreeding." "Every human's biology is unique." "Tyler's body appears to be rejecting the surge of phosphorus." "Administer a concentrated dose to him." "I cannot guarantee Tyler will absorb enough to make him viable." "We may have to alter our plans." "Have the backup candidates been tested?" "Rafael, a young man from Barcelona." "He is our most promising." "Arrange for Rafael to visit with Lisa." "What if she rejects him?" "Lisa will breed with whomever I tell her to." "Tyler, you're gonna be a great pilot." "Really?" "I passed my physical?" "Yes." "In fact, Thomas says you're ready for your first overnight flight." "Thank you." "Thank you so much." "Go get ready." "Tyler, I'm counting on you." "It'll be easier to explore Rafael's potential with him out of the way." "Administer phosphorus injection to Tyler." "See how he responds." "And if his levels remain low?" "Then unfortunately for him he is no longer of use to us." "We respected Eli." "But his decision to hand over leadership was unilateral and unnecessary." "We already have many plans in motion, Agent Evans." "Including a strike to avenge Eli's death." "The suicide bombings, the attacks against innocent humans you're throwing pebbles at a giant." " I told you this was a waste of time." " Stop." "If we are going to defeat the V's, we need to change tactics." "Eli died at the hands of the Visitors because his plan didn't work." "We are going to bring this war to Anna." "I have contacts on her ship." "Access that you don't have, that you will never have." "Eli chose her to lead." "We owe it to him to give her a chance." "Present us with a plan." "If not, leadership will pass to someone who's already proven their worth." "Tyler's very excited about the pilot training program." "He leaves on his first overnight trip tonight." "All of your plans are coming together." "Tyler hasn't spoken to his mother in over a week." "We are finally becoming his family." "In the meantime, I have an assignment for you." "While Tyler is away, you will meet a young man named Rafael." "I want you to entertain him." "What about Tyler?" "If he senses my disloyalty to him, it could upset everything." "My plans for Tyler are none of your concern." "You will entertain Rafael." "Don't question me again." "Hi." "How'd the meeting go?" "Eli Cohn's lieutenants don't think I have what it takes to lead them." "We've fought this war on our own before, Erica." "It's bigger than us now, Jack." "If we're going to defeat Anna, we need an army to do it." "How do we do that?" "Why are the Visitors here?" "If we know what Anna wants, we'll know how to stop her." "Well, we know they want us for breeding." " But we don't know what that means." " The live-aboards." "When I interviewed her last week she said the next batch to come up will be the last." "If Anna's stopping live-aboards..." "It means she got whatever she needed." "Question is what?" "There might be someone who can help us find out." "Anna's daughter, Lisa." "She's a friend." "Anna's daughter is working against her?" "Anna can never find out." "Get to Lisa." "Tell her I sent you." "Sid, where are you on the research?" " I reached the scientific community." " And?" "There were cases of boys with part of their DNA missing." "So far, all the ones I've found died as infants." "Keep looking." "We need to find everything we can about the other boys." "What did Eli tell you about his son's death?" "Well, he had me investigate it." "So I started with the doctor who delivered him, Avner Nizani." "Were you able to find Nizani?" "He's dead." "But I kept digging, looked into his practice." "All the babies he delivered 18 years ago, an unusually high number of them died." "Cause of death was listed as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome." "It's possible those babies died because their DNA was messed with." "They wouldn't have checked for that." "I found a common link between the babies who died." "All their mothers suffered from preeclampsia." "Many of the mothers also were treated by the same specialist, Dr. Veena Rai." "I know her." "She treated me." " I looked everywhere." " You couldn't find her?" " No." "How did you know?" " I couldn't either." "But I reached out, I enlisted help from Eli's contacts around the world." " Any luck?" " Yeah." "There's a cop in Hong Kong." "Thinks he's found Dr. Rai." "If it is Rai, she might know what the Visitors did to those boys." "And why." "I want to talk to Dr. Rai." "We're going to Hong Kong." "Leave us." "Rafael is en route from Barcelona as you requested." "According to his file, his phosphorous levels are ideal." "Joshua, you're one of my most trusted advisors." "What I'm about to ask you requires the utmost discretion." "I'm beginning to sense a weakness in Lisa." "It's possible she is experiencing human emotions." "What can I do to help, my Queen?" "Lie to her." "Tell her your memory is returning." "That you recall what it's like to experience human emotions." "Whatever she says or does report to me directly." "It's taken a week for you to decide you can trust me?" "I would have come sooner, but my mother watches my every move." "You're under a great deal of pressure as future Queen." "What's troubling you, my dear?" "A while ago, my mother instructed me to get close to a boy named Tyler." "Now she's ordered I get close to someone else." "Why would she do that?" "Another boy?" "Anna must be changing her plans." "You care for this boy, Tyler, don't you?" "No." "Our species is not supposed to have human emotion." "Embrace them, Lisa." "I had to learn the hard way." "Emotions can give you power unlike anything else." " Lf my mother ever knew, she'd..." " Throw you down here like she did me." "That's why she can never know that you have feelings for Tyler." "For any human being." "What about the other boy?" "I don't want to be with him." "You shouldn't have to, Lisa." "But you must protect yourself." "You must convince Anna that you are the loyal and obedient daughter she expects you to be." "Your safety, and our survival, depend on it." "Lisa." " Chad Decker, WNT News." " My mother speaks very highly of you." "I've been meaning to talk to Anna about doing an exclusive interview with you." "What it's like being the V First Daughter." "It'd be a great piece." "Whatever my mother wants." "Erica Evans says you might be able to help me." "And why would Mrs. Evans say that?" "Because I'm working with her." "I don't know what you mean." "I know the truth, Lisa." "You helped Erica destroy Anna's soldier eggs." "You want to stop your mother, just like I do." "What do you want from me?" "I know the live-aboards have been tortured." "You need to help us find out why." "Lives depend on it, Lisa." "Please." "Lisa, may I have a word?" "Joshua, what are you doing here?" "As you know, when I was shot, my memory was wiped clean." "Lately, some of it has started to return." "I only remember fragments but I do remember being Fifth Column." "And feeling human emotion." "These memories seem so real." "I want to talk about them." "And I remember that I once did." "With you." "Obviously you remember wrong." "Of course, my Queen." "Forgive me." "Are you kidding?" "Hong Kong cops never heard of a donut shop?" "Chicken feet are a delicacy." "You've tracked down someone Eli was looking for." "A Dr. Veena Rai." "Is this who you're looking for?" "That's her." "She took a long time to find." "She's living under an assumed name here in Hong Kong." " Maybe we should pay her a visit." " Rai lives in a highly secure building." "Police are wired into apartment security." "I can't shut the system down." "I can." "Hacking is my specialty." "Well, it's one specialty, anyway." "You'll only have a very short window." "The system does internal checks every 15 minutes." "Sounds an alarm if anything is amiss." "Just get us in." "We need to find out what Rai did to my son." "Hong Kong P.D. Will never know we were there." "Careful." " So?" " Yeah." "We'll go on Chiang's signal." "All right." "We're in." " Yeah?" " Erica." "We've tapped in." "The monitors will go on a loop." "You've got 15 minutes before the system automatically reboots." "Good to go." "Now." "Let's go." " Who do you think you are?" " Unh!" " I trusted you." " Who are you?" "You treated me." "Me and my baby." "Eighteen years ago." " You were to take care of us." " You're making a mistake." "I don't know who you are." "Please..." "Get her hands." "No." "She's a V." "Let me be very clear." "I am going to skin you slowly from neck to tail until you tell me everything that you did to my son." "And I'm going to keep you alive so that you feel every cut." "Tell me where your safe is." " Where?" "Where?" " Unh." "The bedroom." " Show me." " Come on." "We gotta move." "It's up there." "Not that one, sweetheart." "The lizard's safe." "Right." "What's the combination?" "We gotta move." "Okay, I need tools." "Power drill, flashlight, whatever you can find." "Hurry, cops will be here soon." " Flashlight." " I've got the drill." "Gonna raise the pressure on the inside till it's higher than the outside." "Trick is not blowing up the contents in the process." "Pretty quick to slice and dice back there, Evans." " How'd you know Rai was a lizard?" " I didn't." " I like this new you." " Heh." " Impossible." " Detcord." "I never leave home without it." "Good thing." " Got that flashlight?" " Yeah." "Thank you." " Here, your hands are smaller." " Yeah." " Obviously." " Keep going, keep going." " All the way in." " Yeah, I got it." "Keep going." "Like half an inch." "That's good." "That's good." " I'll let you finish." " I'll take it from here, yeah." "It's a holo device." "We found one in Malik's safe." "Go." "It's okay, we've got two minutes." "Thank you." "Jack." "Just hear me out, okay?" "What are you gonna say, Ryan, huh?" "You lied to us." " Betrayed us." " I never gave your names to Anna." "Your actions killed dozens of people." " Erica's ex is dead because of you." " You don't think I know that?" "Anna had my baby, Jack." "Okay, I made a mistake, but there was nothing else I could do." "No, Ryan." "You could have told us the truth." "We didn't even know you survived the bombing." "I have to get my baby away from Anna." "I need help." "You know, of all the people I thought you would be the one that understands." "Everybody needs a second chance." "I'm not a priest anymore, Ryan." "It's not my job to absolve you." "Rai visited the same cities over and over for 19 years." "There's 29 boys here." "In 29 cities." "Each one has a mother ship parked over them." "They're there because of those boys." "Oh, my God." "Tyler's not the only one." " Lf Anna has others..." " That means that Tyler my son, is expendable." "We'll figure it out, Erica." "We'll figure it out, we'll stop her." "And we'll keep Tyler safe." "Any idea what these are?" "Prenatal vitamins." "I took those when I was pregnant." "What?" "Why would a doctor keep prenatal vitamins in a safe?" "They wouldn't." "Unless they were trying to hide something." "What the hell was that?" "Welcome back." "I thought you were done with the priest routine." "Well, it doesn't work like that." "Wherever I walk, he walks." "Try to keep him contained to your corner, all right?" "Why?" "Are you afraid of what he's going to find in yours?" "So, uh, how'd it go in Hong Kong?" "We found prenatal pills with these freaky metal bugs inside them." "Science boy is taking a look." "Also, seems that Erica's kid isn't the only one that Anna's keeping her eye on." "There are 28 more." "Really?" "Erica." "We'll be right there." "Thank you." "Chad Decker." "Chad." "I found out why my mother wanted the live-aboards." "I'm sending you information that will explain it all." "Come here, look at this." "They programmed these things to go after DNA with a Y chromosome." "That's why the pregnant mothers and baby girls weren't affected." "We know what they did, and how they did it, but we still don't know why." "They created empty space in the DNA to put something in, but what?" "I think I might know." "Lisa came through." "She downloaded the live-aboards' medical files." "Anna isn't choosing these live-aboards randomly." "She's inviting people up to the ship who are exceptional." "Genetically exceptional." ""High fertility." "Elevated immunity." "Longevity." And this part:" ""Gene extraction complete."" "Dates must be when they put the live-aboards into the needle machine." " Stealing DNA from live-aboards?" "She's not just stealing any DNA." "She is harvesting the best of the best." "That's awesome." "I mean, definitely not awesome." "But it explains something that's been driving me crazy." "All right." "This is from Alpha, the V skeleton I found." "His DNA is a hundred times more complex than normal DNA." "But then there's this." "This is Malik's DNA." "It's one thousand times more complex than Alpha's." " Weird, right?" " Yeah." "Okay, so?" "The genetic evolution from Alpha to Malik should have taken 5000 years." "The V's did it in 50." "Give it to us in English, Einstein." "This explains why the V's didn't just annihilate us." "They need us alive." "They're stealing the best of our DNA." "They're using us to fast-track their own evolution." "Rafael has arrived." "Did you approach Lisa like I asked?" "I did." "She gave no indication she has ever felt human emotion." "She could be testing you." "You may be right." "I saw Lisa looking through medical files." "What files?" "I don't know." "She does not know that I saw her." "I was told this is where I could find Lisa." "You must be Rafael." "I didn't know you had arrived." "Yes, a short time ago." "This ship it is quite impressive." "You have only seen a small part." "Once I show you the rest you'll never want to leave." "You're very handsome." "I can't do this." "I'm sorry." "You have to go." "Why did you send him away?" "You directly disobeyed my orders." "I am tired of being told what to do." "I demand you tell me what your plan is for me." "How dare you talk to me like that?" "You want to strike me, don't you?" "Yes, I do." "Then what's stopping you?" "I didn't mean it." "I'm sorry, Mother." "Don't be." "It's your breeding skin fueling the aggression you need to become Queen." "But you're not Queen yet." "And until you are, you will do as I tell you." "The problem with Lisa may be more serious than I first thought." "We cannot proceed with interbreeding without Lisa." "There's something I need to show you." "A queen egg?" "I had it preserved." "The last of my clutch." "If Lisa proves disloyal, she can be replaced." "This egg is my only alternate to interbreeding." "The very survival of our species may depend on it." "Can you hatch it safely?" " Yes." " Then begin the process immediately." "But it will take years for the new Queen to reach maturity." "Our accelerated growth experiments have not proven successful." "Then run more." "The children from your final clutch have all matured." "The only option would be..." "The hybrid baby." "At birth, she did appear more Visitor than human." "Our skin, our tail, our claws." "Do it." "Such experimentation could result in the hybrid's death." "Then she'll die serving her Queen." "It's possible the Visitors have been doing this all across the universe." "Consuming the best of every life form they encounter to create a superior master species." " Now they're doing it here on Earth." " And these boys fit in how?" "Each of the 29 boys is missing a part of their DNA." "There's a void." "We believe that the V's plan to fill that void with a mixture of genes they've stolen." "What happens after they insert the new DNA?" "I'll find out." "In just two days, working with my team I have uncovered a vital part of the V's plan." "Imagine what I could do with an army." "What you've discovered is most impressive." "What's next?" "Before I tell you, I need to know that you trust me unequivocally as leader of the Fifth Column." "We're ready to follow you, Agent Evans." "All of us." "Anna is about to welcome the final group of live-aboards onto the ship." "We suspect that once she gets their DNA she'll have what she needs to move on to the next part of her plan." "We're going to stop that from happening." "Tyler is proving to be quite a capable pilot." "Good." "Joshua, check Tyler's phosphorus levels immediately." "I am hopeful we can move forward with him." "How did Lisa respond to Rafael?" "Not as well as I would have liked." "I convinced him to stay on the ship for now." "However, Lisa must be dealt with." "Joshua, how are we progressing with my backup plan?" "We've initiated the experimentation as you requested." "Perhaps you'd like to see the results for yourself." "The hybrid survived the aging experiment." "However, there was an unforeseen side effect." "Her maturation has strengthened her immune system." "Her body seems to have healed itself of its chronic pain." "That means we no longer have leverage over Ryan Nichols." "Where's my daughter?" "Look at you." "Mommy." "Welcome back, Ryan." "Eli Cohn is dead and the Fifth Column have been neutralized as a threat." "As a reward, you get to spend a few hours with your daughter." "Thank you, my Queen." "Excellent work, Joshua." "Ryan's cover has been compromised within Fifth Column." "He is no longer of any use to us." "Arrange to have him eliminated." "Quietly." "Oh, man, there is nothing like that." "I mean, nothing." "Tyler." " I missed you." " I missed you too." "But I have to take a shower." "Thomas is teaching me how to download my report." "Tyler, you can't keep running away from me." "What are you talking about?" "I know you're holding in your emotions." "But your father just died." "It's okay to be sad." "To feel." "You don't get it, Lisa." "I don't want to feel anything anymore." "I just want to be a shuttle pilot and forget about my past." "You were right." "I do care about Tyler." "He's the one I want to be with." "I'm no longer sure he wants to be with me." "I'm sure you will figure it out, my dear." "I will help you." "I am so grateful that I found you." "You're the only one that understands what I'm going through." "I learned a long time ago what you have already seen." "And what your mother refuses to recognize:" "The good in human emotion." "Tyler used to care, he used to feel." "Now I'm no longer sure." "I disobeyed her today." "I couldn't control my emotions." "Now I'm worried she suspects I've changed." "You're on very dangerous territory, my dear." "Your mother must suspect nothing." "Trust no one on the ship." "No one but me." "And you must keep my presence a secret." "I won't tell anyone." "I promise." "I know you are afraid, my dear." "But everything will be okay." "Why are you doing this?" "Because your mother never did." "What's this?" "I'm all alone up here." "It's so we can always be in touch." "And not risk my mother finding out."
