Original subtitles

Previously on Roswell, New Mexico.

You're lighting. What do they want with me?

You're the savior.

Now that you're all grown up, they'll come.

This is what our triad is meant to do. Just as Ophiuchus has a plan for you,

Max, it has one for her.

Max!

I'm sorry, I'm gonna fix this.

There are things in Correus you'd find interesting.

You are the Valenti Correus point person. Do you have any idea who might

sent that letter? Probably the crazy waiter, Ellie Myers.

And that's what taught me not to be afraid to love again.

Hours on the first.

Clyde.

Okay, forget everything you thought you knew about breakfast burritos because

this one has tater tots in it.

Where's Clyde?

Out of town.

retrieving something for me.

Why wouldn't he ask me to come with him? I give the orders.

Did he go after the final piece?

The final piece?

I just wanted to know if we're going home soon.

What else would the plan be?

And to accomplish said plan, no more earthly destruction.

I'm committed.

Of course you are.

You took care of Eduardo after all.

He's never coming back.

Good.

Now I need you to do the same to your new friend.

Michael.

You're up early.

Meditating. Trying to learn to control myself so last night doesn't happen

again.

But it's hard to find inner peace when every time I close my eyes, I see myself

nearly killing you. You also saved me, Max.

Look.

It's like I got signed by an alien rock star.

Liz, I feel what you feel through the handprint, okay? I know you're terrified

about what I did or what I might do next.

Maybe I am.

But you gotta remember, I am for the two -way street.

And I know you're scared, too.

I'm feeling guilty.

I don't understand how to control this power or what Tesco wants with it.

You're gonna learn how to control it.

I can't control her interest in you. I mean, Jones gave her your name. They're

after you, Liz. And you saw the look in her eyes, the wheels turning. We can

handle it.

You and me, Max, my God, we have survived worse things.

We can do this.

You know, we should call the DOD. Maybe they can bottle our love.

I'm serious.

What better way to combat the anger and the fear you're feeling than remembering

how loved you are?

Here.

And who is this? Do you remember?

My dad. He sends them to me everywhere I go.

It's a reminder that there's always someone who has my back.

Just a partner.

Ride with you when I can't.

It's Maria.

She says Michael is sick.

You don't get sick.

108.

Aliens usually run at 102.

We've never had a fever. When did this start?

Last night. Dallas thought he would sleep it off, but... But I'm dying.

You're not dying.

It's time.

I have run every test I can possibly think of. He has multiple strands of the

flu, strep, and the common cold. I mean, all at once. It's like he suddenly has

the immune system of an infant.

Why, Liz? Does everything ache? We make you go away.

Well, he's definitely an infant.

Do you have any other symptoms? Yeah, my alien mojo.

Missing.

That makes sense, actually.

The regenerative protein that keeps you from getting sick is the same place

where you derive your powers.

So that one took me down. Some kind of super bug?

Maybe there's a connection with the alien fruit.

Dallas ate it, too.

What if it was exposure to the octahedron? Well, let's not jump to any

conclusions, okay?

I'm going to take a sample. It's incentivated.

Science is going to solve this mystery.

Yeah.

Yeah, of course. I'll be right there.

What is it?

A couple of my deputies just picked up a vandal. I had to take me to your latte.

Pretty sure your boy's in beige candle and misdemeanor without you.

The vandal is Bonnie.

She's insisting on talking only to me.

Jacqueline, I know better than anyone.

Hey, you can barely get out of bed. You think you're going to run point on an

interrogation? I promised that I would protect her. Let me keep that promise,

okay? You rest.

Are you sure you're okay?

Face to face with an alien again?

I got backup.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Sorry, I did not mean to, um... to use your back as a pillow.

No.

No, use me.

That's what I'm here for.

Wait, do you... Do you feel used?

Oh, my God, of course you feel used. Oh, no.

Of all the men in Mexico, of course I had to rebound with Kyle Valenti.

Did I just...

Did I just ruin our friendship?

No.

No, of course not. I mean, we both knew what this was, right?

Just two friends blowing off steam.

Oh, my God, thank God, thank God.

I was just so worried that I'd made it awkward.

No, not at all. Thank God, because honestly, Carl, that was exactly what I

needed.

Very impressed.

Well, two thumbs.

Way up.

I'm going to make you some coffee.

Sure.

And I'm

naked.

I know you could detail the conditions to open that jail cell and walk out of

here. So, why are you really here?

To talk.

This was the safest place I could think of.

Then why would you want to talk to me?

Everyone keeps going on about you being the savior.

Well, I need you to save me.

So, your coffee.

Cream and sugar?

Kyle, I really feel like we should maybe talk about this. Talk about what?

That you had sex?

Don't play dump anymore. Your shirt's on backwards.

Oh, your friend Liz emailed the instructions to fix my freaky photo

think you keep her pants on long enough to help me out?

That won't be a problem.

Last night was just a one -time thing.

Well, technically two times for some of us, but message received.

Thank God. An escape hatch.

All the mysteries of the universe at your fingertips.

And you can't figure out how to work a phone.

I was afraid if I called you'd tell me not to come.

You were right.

I deserve that. You deserve worse for not standing by your own daughter.

Kyle told me you ran into an alien wearing my skin like some sci -fi

Bill.

Tell me, when was the last time you gave me a second thought?

When that shapeshifter locked me up in her hideout, you were all I could think

about.

It was a wake -up call.

Wondering what she'd done to you.

If I lost you forever.

You've already been pretending I'm dead for a decade.

Why stop now?

What are you working on?

Re -examining that sample we found at the oil derrick.

You don't have to keep your little alien secrets from me. It's clearly a new

sample. It's not epidermal tissue. It's saliva.

And look, this looks like an alien virus.

Human viruses, which is strange because it's an alien sample.

No, I think it's an alien virus.

See? Triple helix.

How did you see that?

Oh, after a decade married to a scientist, you get pretty good at

shoulders.

Allie filled an entire hard drive of biological anomalies.

There should be something alien in there. You think you got a copy

No, let's keep it back up.

Alex, it's Maria leaving you another message to let you know.

Your boyfriend is sick. Can you please get some cell service?

Call us back.

I know Alex is busy, but you would think he would check in.

Hey, any improvement, big guy?

Accio Alex.

Still no powers.

Well, you know what I was thinking?

You're not totally powerless.

You're still a great engineer.

Yeah, maybe the Avengers could use a roadie.

Snark aside, I need your help.

This is the glass that my dad embedded the equation to the cup of Max from

on. Well, now it looks like the s'more that fell in the campfire.

Yeah, hence the help. Look, I don't know how much is still usable, but I was

hoping maybe we could try to recover what we can, look for clues on it.

You think we overlooked something?

Maybe. It can't hurt to try.

I got Kyle to get Deep Sky to loan me the Lockhart machine.

I think maybe you can make some adjustments to it.

Get a broken DVD to play again.

All right.

I will take a crack at it.

It's a worry doll, right?

Allie bought it for me at a tourist shop a million years ago. To remember her

when she wasn't around.

If you tell the doll you're worried, then it takes care of them for you.

Can't say it worked.

I can't imagine what it's like to have a thick kid.

You think having a partner will help, but they're in just as much pain as you

are. We tried to support each other however we could.

Max and I do the same thing.

I actually gave him one of these today.

It's nice.

All the supportive words, the little token, they're just a stopgap.

Band -aids over gaping wounds.

Words can't change painful realities.

What can?

Maybe nothing.

Maybe it's all just coping mechanisms.

We spent years trying to cure our daughter's illness together, but we

drifted apart.

You're going to find that cure.

And then you're going to find your way back to Allie.

I don't believe any situation is hopeless.

That's what I like about you, Liz.

That optimism.

Come on, methane leak. Move, people, move.

I'll transfer the prisoner and then supervise the repair. I'll call you when

it's all clear.

That's a fake leak, right?

You wanted to talk?

Talk. If you need protection, I need to know who you are and what I'm protecting

you from.

You think this is a trap?

I know Jones had plans to get back to Oasis, so tell me, how are you going to

that? You think Tesco would tell me something like that?

Didn't answer the question.

I would if I could.

All I know is that the alighting is already in motion.

Alighting.

How do you know that word?

Tezca keeps saying it. I was hoping you knew what it meant.

I knew someone who said it once.

Noah Bracken.

Friend of yours?

No, he was no one's friend.

He did the things no one else wanted to do and took pleasure in doing them.

And the blue flame?

What does Tesca want with it?

The way Tesca speaks, the puzzle is incomplete without you and... And Liz?

We shouldn't talk about her.

Tesca says it makes you angry.

Liz and I are not puzzle pieces.

No, I, um... I think that you're somehow the glue that holds them together.

You could have found me weeks ago.

Why now?

Tesca ordered me to do something, and I couldn't do it.

And what's that?

Kill Michael.

Why would she want Michael dead?

There's a rift in our triad.

Clyde has been... He's been questioning her leadership.

And she can feel me pulling away, so... Two birds with one stone. Remove a

threat and keep me in line.

What does she need you in line?

What is your piece of the puzzle?

You came here to talk and you are not talking.

I will be in my office when you decide to quit

playing games.

Soup's almost ready. I just can't remember one last ingredient from my

recipe. Oh, no worry.

I'm so stuffed up I couldn't take Xander's boot if he stepped on my thumb.

What the... Oh, come on.

Show's about to start.

All right.

So, how does this work? We get to talk to your father?

Uh, his consciousness.

If we get lucky.

All right.

Here goes nothing.

If you're saying that that means my time on this planet has passed, I wish I

could answer all your questions, but sadly, there are restrictions.

Dad?

Merely his consciousness, but that doesn't change how much I love him. This

just what he said last time.

Maybe it's like space, Alexa.

Ask him what you want to know.

Dad, what do I need to know about the tree in the sea?

The triquetra.

In his locket. What is it?

In the wrong hands, they could bring ruin to our home.

Wait, Dad.

Dad!

That it? Yeah, that's it. I'm sorry, Dallas.

Not a dead end, man.

Maybe not.

That Bible.

There. I recognize it. What?

Wait, how's that possible? The embossing. That embossing is so

it in Bonnie's cave.

Thought you might want some company.

Generous of you to think I deserve sympathy.

Well, after what I saw back there.

You at least deserve a drink.

That package Isabel found, the one that led you here.

When it arrived, I saw that postmark from Calias, and I just froze.

I couldn't open it.

I was too afraid to hear what she had to say. But if I'd opened it sooner, I

might have realized what happened.

But Sonia almost died because I was too much of a coward to own up to my own

mistake. That package wasn't sent from Sonia.

That was probably sent from a scientist named Allie Myers.

Had you been too busy beating yourself up, you didn't bother to get your facts

straight.

It appears being thorough is a reoccurring problem of mine.

What happened between you two?

When Sonia was a teenager, she and I didn't exactly see eye to eye.

So you're a little bit country, she's a little bit rock and roll.

The way she tell it, she's rage against the machine, and I'm the machine.

She got it into her head that Deep Sky was profiting off alien secrets.

She tried to hack our accounts and play Robin Hood. She was labeled an

extremist. I felt like I had to distance myself from her to protect her.

To protect myself and my career.

But I never meant to estrange us forever.

Well, you're doing the right thing now.

Kyle, I was too afraid to have this conversation because I was afraid of

she might say.

And now I realize how much more it hurts to never get to hear what she feels at

all.

The virus is attacking the regenerative protein.

Incredible. Except the virus burns right through them. I mean, it's strange.

This virus is clearly built to replicate inside of a host, but it's not

replicating in that sample.

Which means your friend can't spread it. But someone else did.

A virus like this would require close contact.

I mean, close.

Yeah.

How close have you gotten to Bonnie and Clyde? In a sitting -indoors -unmasked

kind of way.

We haven't formed any blood bonds or anything.

Any other kinds of bonds?

Bonnie... She did kiss me.

I don't think she kissed you because she finds your sarcasm irresistible.

I think she kissed you so she could disable your powers.

Are you the reason I don't have any powers? What are you doing here? You

be resting. You stay away from her, Max, unless you want your own post -nasal

drip. You're sick?

That's never happened before.

Hold up.

You did it on purpose?

Michael, I can explain. I was just trying to help. So that's your ability?

disable powers.

I never should have let you go undercover.

Save it, Max.

We're in your mindscape.

Well, you can only tell the truth.

For once.

Guitar lessons, fireside chats, it was all a lie. Oh, you're going to accuse me

of double -crossing you? When you went and gave me a dementor's kiss? I was

protecting you. The moment Clyde realized that you were the dictator

knew he could use you for his own gain. You act like Clyde is some kind of

puppet master when I have him eating out of the palm of my hand. Or are you too

blinded by his stories of oasis to feel him reeling you in? If Clyde offered to

take you home, would you go?

It's a complicated question.

Because you can't lie to yourself in here either. Because I've been dreaming

home since I was a foster kid. That is what Clyde preyed on.

I know because I was a lost kid too. I kissed you to save you from falling into

the same trap as me. Oh, you didn't save me!

You erased me.

I feel like I'm in an episode of Storage Wars.

Or Marie Kondo's Nightmares.

But Michael said he saw the Bible amongst all of Bonnie's keepsakes, so

to be here somewhere.

It's here.

The Bible, the triquetra necklace.

Do you think your dad found God when he was on Earth?

Maybe he was drawn to the story of persecuted people making their life for

themselves a new land.

Hmm.

Apple doesn't fall far from the alien tree.

Does this mean anything to you?

No.

Every clue is more cryptic than the last.

Moses had the burning bush, but at least the bush talked.

Hey, if you think the Bible is part of your story, it probably is.

We know that you have memories from 1947 buried somewhere.

Thankfully.

I know just the right alien to help dig it out.

Hey.

You're leaving?

Yes.

Dallas needs my help in Roswell.

I don't know. This got weird, right? And it doesn't have to get weird. It's

good. So I'll see you back at home.

You can't go.

Look, the longer I keep this inside, the harder it'll be to tell you the truth.

Keep what inside?

Isabel Evans, I am terrified of you.

Oh.

In ninth grade, I saw you make a girl cry because you complimented her

You know more ways to break an arm than Ronda Rousey.

And you dressed like a... Russian spy undercover at Coachella.

But most of all, I am terrified that at any second you will jump into my mind

and discover you are all I think about.

And that you will realize I'm in love with you.

I've wanted to tell you for a long time, but I've always been afraid of what you

might say.

Except now I realize I'm even more afraid of never finding out at all.

What if I don't know what to say?

Say it wasn't just a rebound.

Say you felt it too.

Tell me I'm not crazy.

Wow,

this is just, um... It's kind of a lot. You know, I'm in the middle of this...

break up and trying to process.

Right, okay, I understand.

So say you need more time.

Say you're not ready.

I've gotten really good at waiting.

So ask me to wait.

No, I can't ask you to wait.

Waiting implies expectations.

And that terrifies me because what if I can't say the thing that you want to

hear?

Because I can't do that to somebody again.

Kyle.

I can't afford to lose you.

Really.

I'll see you back in Roswell, okay?

You need to calm down, Michael. You're going to make yourself worse.

Oh, I just want to make sure that I understand Bonnie's genius plan. To

me from Clyde, you took away my greatest strength.

Our abilities don't make us strong. They're a sickness.

What do you even know about being sick?

My mother was a soldier in the dictator's army. She wanted to bring

Oasis, and every day when she left our home, I thought that was the last time I

was going to see her.

So one day, I begged her to stay.

I held her. I cried. I kissed her.

You took away her powers. I didn't know what I was capable of. And when she

realized what I had done, she was... She was furious with me.

She kicked me out of my own home. I was alone until I met Clyde. He was the one

that brought me into Ophiuchus.

Teska said Jones was a collector of abilities. Is that what you did for him?

No. No, I can't... I can't use the powers I take.

But that didn't stop him from using me to neutralize his enemies.

I wanted to bring peace to Oasis.

I thought that if...

That if I could just show my mother, I could make her proud.

I was brainwashed, but this planet, it opened my eyes. And when I kissed you,

Michael, I thought that I had finally done something good with my power.

You want to do something good?

Give me my powers back.

I can't.

I'm sorry, there's no reversing it.

Station's closed.

It's her.

Hello, Sheriff.

I'm here for that prisoner.

Still reaching for that primitive weapon, I see.

No use risking another outburst.

I only want her.

You're lying. You ordered her to kill Michael.

I'm sorry, what now? Killing him was a test Bonnie failed.

Let's see how chatty she is after I cut out her tongue.

Get Bonnie out of here.

Why must I do everything myself?

Bonnie, what?

You always were a fool.

So easily seduced.

Stay back.

In all my years, I've never encountered a student as stubborn as you.

We both know how this ends.

Why are we out here? I need to help Max.

No, no, no, no.

You can't go back in there, Tusk. It doesn't care if you live or die. Oh,

Like you do.

How do you keep finding new ways to take me out of the fight?

I've gotten really good at stealing on this planet. And if I'm going to stay

here, you're the only friend I have. Friends don't handcuff friends.

They don't kiss away their powers without asking.

I might have been wrong to take away your powers.

But if I let you run back inside and play the powerless hero, it's going to

my fault you died.

I'm impressed.

You're already improving.

Controlling your anger.

What do you want with me?

Bonnie said Liz and I hold the pieces together. What does that mean? It means

Bonnie talks too much. And you don't talk enough.

What is the alighting?

A lesson for another time, perhaps.

of the handprint.

Good sense you needed some help.

And since I know you've been running hot lately, I phoned a friend.

I'll grab the fire extinguisher.

No, I got this.

Was this your dad's machete? I told him you insulted his cooking and he loaned

it to me right away.

Oh. Didn't realize I was dating an action hero.

Sarah Connor.

I think we might have just found her Terminator.

Cute, but no match for my superior genetics.

You must be Theo's son, just like your father.

Putting your faith in a human like her when you should put your faith in

Ophiuchus. Hey, I don't want to get all in this house on you, but a human like

me puts her faith in science.

Which is why I tipped that machete in Bonnie's virus.

And then I added a chemical accelerant to speed things up a little bit.

I've been studying.

Your superior genetics.

And judging by the fresh ink on your arms, I think we're about to meet what's

really written in your DNA.

Your true form.

Your theory was right.

But my savior was right, too.

Miracles present themselves to those who are patient.

What are you getting at?

That together...

You two will change both our worlds.

Well, Teska fled, but at least we're alive.

I'm so glad you're okay.

Well, thanks to my two partners.

Good.

Well, at least one of us survived.

He's tougher than he looks.

You know, after all the threats are to remain, I figured I would be the one

skewered on the end of that machete.

But it was pretty sexy seeing you with it.

It's kind of nice.

Having the whole sheriff's station to ourselves.

Ow!

What is it?

I'm fine, I'm fine.

Barely a mark on my skin.

No, no, it was anger that I was trying to avoid. But that wasn't anger, that

love. Max, you've made the... crash down lights flicker before it's okay but

that never burned you i mean i was worried that i might hurt you when i was

hulk but now bruce banner is dangerous too what am i supposed to do never touch

you again hey look let's just go home okay let's decompress it's fine i can

it's not fine the hamper means i feel what you feel you're terrified that this

is gonna make it impossible for us to be together no no absolutely not because

nothing is impossible

plan for a future when tesca's already made those plans for us because our love

is stronger than that our love is stronger than all of this bottle it up

national security okay remember what if the strength of our love is what burns

it down i mean these powers these abilities therefore the alighting i need

able to control them okay so then whatever the alighting is we will face

together will you stop saying that i feel like you hope to just wish all this

away with some kind words Positive thinking only works when there is

positive to hope for.

I mean, we are trapped in this insane plan that Jones left behind, and I can't

let that hurt you.

What are we going to do?

I don't know.

Your daughter has your eyes again.

Genetically, I'm speaking.

Thank you.

I'm glad she has family to lean on, even if it's not me.

Buy you a drink?

Make it a double.

I just told an alien that I love her.

Ah, so it's Isabel.

I could tell your all -nighters at Deep Sky were in just about alien medicine.

How'd it go?

Like open -heart surgery.

I put Deep Sky on the task and believe I found a lead on Allie Myers.

How about a Valenti road trip to take your mind off things?

Count me in.

But I am done burying my feelings in work.

If that means you want to cry it out in the passenger seat to Olivia Rodrigo, I

won't judge.

I mean, all my feelings that I kept from Isabel just formed this massive glacier

between us.

But now that it's all out there, somehow I feel closer to her than ever.

Like my heart isn't broken.

Just thawing.

And I want that for you, too.

Your nephew's a real hopeless romantic.

It's annoying.

But if it gets Dr.

Love to shut up about how the heart's an iceberg or whatever, maybe it's worth

talking to you.

I'm surprised I could get you back from Mexico so soon.

Oh, well, you know, Mexico's always full of surprises.

But when a member of my triad needs me, I appear.

And I bring Sage.

Is that how we prepare for this journey into my mind? No, no. The journey into

your mind will be easy. This is for that vintage funk yard must we got going on.

You think I can do it, though?

I don't have Maria's vision powers or anything like that.

That's true.

Maria's vision is...

Gave her access to memories across multiple generations of the DeLuca line.

you don't need her powers.

Because you were there in 1947.

So all you have to do is focus on the Bible.

And I'll do the rest.

What's your reason?

Bronson let me borrow his book.

Bronson is Maria's great -grandfather.

Jessica said my father put his faith in a human.

What's it about?

Well, some people on Earth seek answers within its pages.

When you're older, I hope you do the same.

Because... there may come a time when you don't remember this day or any of

days that we spent together.

But I'll always remember you, Dad.

Now listen.

The seeds we planted, this book, in the wrong hands, they could bring you into

our home, so I have to protect you.

You might forget everything else.

I hope you'll always know, deep down, how much I love you.

Wait.

Wait, did you see that?

Glasses. The glasses are the key to the code in my dad's Bible.

Mimi's famous chicken dumpling soup tastes just like childhood.

See, that's what happens when you try to get off the couch when you're sick.

Just eat some soup. Watch Judge Mathis like a normal person.

I don't want to be a normal person.

You're right.

I'm sorry.

And not to be a I -lost -my -powers -too -know -it -all, but I do have some

experience in this department.

You lost your powers? A side effect of the serum that saved my life.

I let my psychic abilities define me, and then one day, they're gone.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

I realized that my identity is not connected to my power.

I'm my ambition.

My heart.

And without my power, those things get to keep going, which I think is what

Bonnie wanted for you.

She does keep risking her life to save me.

You heard that too, right? The angry rat?

Wait a second.

That poster, it's from the festival my mom and I went to every year.

And this is the secret ingredient to the soup my mom always makes when I'm sick.

What are you saying?

I can't talk to my mom in my visions anymore, but maybe she's trying to find

another way to communicate with me.

Sorry about the overtime. Couldn't wait.

Regenerative protein we've been looking for. It's damaged, but it's a start.

Where did Allie find it?

She didn't.

But the same protocols apply. It stays in this room until my daughter walks out

fully healed.

I'll get right on it.

You can't sleep?

Tecca will come looking for me.

Pretty sure Liz bought us some time with that.

You're safe here.

Good. And you helped us today.

Keep it up.

I want to help you get anything you want.

With all the curly fries, hard seltzers, and Spielberg movies we have to offer.

I've never seen Tezca lose in a fight before.

Your girlfriend must be pretty tough.

Oh, that she is.

She's brilliant.

Kind, funny.

You know, I can't wait to marry her.

But how can I make a sacred vow to love and protect her when I risk burning down

the altar as I kiss her?

You want to take sacred vows at an altar.

And I'm the one in a cult.

Sounds crazy, but you may not understand our tradition.

But I know you understand that Tesco wants to use my abilities for the

outlining. And I can't let that happen.

You called me the savior.

I'm asking you to save me.

No, you saw how sick I made Michael.

Oh, I can get over a flu.

What I can't abide is losing the woman I love.
