All language subtitles for V S01E07 John May

Previously on V .D .N .S. If I could
just stay with him. It's time that we

him the truth about who he really is. I
think Tyler's ready. But he's still not

here on the ship with you. Get him.

I missed you.

I'm pregnant.

You need to tell her the truth before
she finds out.

John May started the Fifth Column. The
first group of visitors to ever turn

against the leadership.

Anna's birthing soldiers.

You need to stop them.

Visitors took everything I had. I don't
want that to happen again.

Georgie! I left the Fifth Column!

And I think I saw a UFO.

There's no such thing as UFOs, buddy. Go
back to bed.

That's okay. Go on. I love you, James.

How could you do this to your own kind?

Start a resistance.

These people are worth saving.

No. It's your human skin.

You've been wearing it too long. You got
confused.

You're sick.

Bliss is a sickness.

It's mind control.

Human emotion is not sickness. It's
beautiful.

Human emotion?

You betrayed us for human emotion.

Yeah. You may as well kill me now.

Because I will never.

One day you'll understand.

You can't escape, John May!

You can't escape!

Someone please lay out for me who the
hell that guy is.

John May was the first V to turn against
Anna.

He started the resistance.

I was with him just before he
disappeared.

You knew him, Ryan. Why didn't you
say... Because no one needed to know

now. Look, the bottom line is we are not
leaving Georgie up there to die. The

only reason he's on that ship is because
he tried to save me.

I gotta get back on that ship. But how?

It'll be impossible now. We'll do it.
We'll figure it out.

How much does he know?

Where you are. Who your loved ones are.

No, I'm not saying he'll talk if he's a
coward. I'm saying everyone has a

breaking point.

Everyone talks. No, not Georgie.

He'll hold on till we get him. Which is,
you can park right here just spelled

out. It's impossible.

We may not be able to get back on that
ship, but there may be another way to

save him.

How? Joshua.

The one who helped me embed the John May
lives message. He's fifth column.

Said there's a way to contact them. Some
sort of comms device.

It's encrypted and the text outdated so
the V don't monitor for it anymore.

If we can get our hands on it. We can
coordinate a rescue plan with the fifth

column aboard the ship. Good. First
sensible thing anyone said.

Mr. Blonde.

Where's the device?

Upstate. Town called Reedsville.

Belongs to John May.

But to someone else.

His stepson.

He might be able to lead us to that
divine.

Great. Let's go.

The human managed to fight off the
effects of the memory chamber.

We've been unable to retrieve any useful
information about who helped him embed

the message in our broadcast.

He won't give names.

Impress upon him more strongly that he
has no choice in the matter.

I've already sent for the human pain
expert from the Tokyo ship.

Your pregnancy.

You should be resting.

No time for that.

I need to make sure the Live Aboard
program stays on track.

There are whispers of an anti -P
terrorist group.

Polls show people have grown
apprehensive about coming to live on the

which will affect the success of our
Live Aboard program.

Get in chat, Decker.

I'll address the people directly.

I want those bodies on this ship.

Hello.

You are?

Lisa, Tyler's friend.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Evans.

Hi.

Tyler's mom didn't mention anything
about you coming. Did Tyler invite you?

Actually, no. I just thought I'd check
in on him.

Why did he need you to check in?

He didn't. I just thought he could use
the support.

It's just, um, this situation's been a
little hard, right?

I mean, since you left.

Have you had breakfast yet?

I'm sorry, wait a minute.

What did he say, exactly?

He hasn't said anything bad about you,
Mr. Evans.

So you guys met?

Don't worry, Dad. I slept on the couch.

I swear.

Lisa showed up late last night and kind
of surprised me.

I don't know.

It surprised me, too.

Listen,

I know you wanted to spend some time
with me, but is it okay if she hangs

us?

I really like her.

Of course.

Thanks.

This is Chad Decker for WNT, bringing
you an exclusive interview with the V

-High Commander, Anna.

It's good to see you again.

Thank you, Chad.

I know there have been rumors about the
messages sent from our ships during my

announcement last night.

Yes.

John may live.

Can you tell us what that means?

I wish I could, Chad.

It appears it was merely a glitch in our
system.

An overlay of old code from our language
training program used to learn the

English language.

What's of greater interest to me are the
things that are going right.

People are so excited about the Live
Aboard program.

It will give us a chance before we leave
to reciprocate the hospitality you have

shown us.

Later today, you will join me as I sit
down with some of the invitees to answer

their questions.

I can assure you, those joining us will
be treated with the utmost care and

respect. This is the last time we're
going to ask.

What are the names of your co
-conspirators?

Names?

Evelyn, my wife, there's a name.

We were too much shy about 12th
anniversary. Here's two more.

Brian and Evan.

My two boys, six and eight.

You freaks killed them too.

Our doctors will assure that you will
receive the best medical attention we

provide. I'm Dr. Maeta.

Let me explain to you how the scours
operate.

It's a curious little creature.

It likes to explore every inch of the
human body from the inside.

Its preference is to travel along the
nerve lines.

The scour enters near the face and exits
via the soft tissue.

Usually through the reproductive organs.

And remember, we are a feast.

Always.

After the John May message, we
anticipate resistance members will come

hiding.

As sleeper agents embedded in key
positions, you need to be ready.

Each of you has one of these in your
possession.

If you notice any suspicious activity,
an assistance will be deployed to your

location.

He had his job made his place.

Did you know his stepfather was a V?

No, I mean, wanted to protect his
family.

Told him nothing.

This is passing time.

Yeah. You know, you could have told me
they're the girlfriend. It's part of the

package. What are you talking about?

She's there?

Lisa? Yes, she showed up last night. I
mean, what is the deal with her?

She seems to know all our dirty laundry.
She's a peace ambassador with Tyler.

Joe, I'm sorry. I can't get into this
right now. Erica, I'm having a real hard

time with this.

All these years he's been blaming
himself.

He's the reason that we broke up.
Because he went up and crashed his bike.

He needs to know the truth.

Move it.

Godzilla's getting nervous. Can we
please not do this right now? I have to

I will call you the minute I get a
chance, okay?

Always catch up to people, Erica.

You okay?

No.

I've never really told anyone this.

Tyler's 14.

He wrecked his bike, ruptured his
spleen. Joe and I went in to donate

there are supposed to be certain match
-ups in blood work between parents and

their kids.

Ours didn't line up.

I'm not following.

They told us that Joe wasn't Tyler's
father.

But tests aren't 100 % accurate.

Doctors don't know everything.

Don't ever believe me.

If you don't have trust in a
relationship, you don't have anything.

What's Tyler now?

Sometimes you have to lie to people to
protect them.

Am I talking to the FBI agent or the
mother?

Oh.

You're not supposed to be kicking it,
are you?

Hey, honey.

Sorry to bother you at work, but I was
wondering if you knew where you put Dr.

Perlman's card.

I felt the baby kicking.

Give me a call if you get a sec, okay?

Thank you.

James May?

Yeah. I'm Ryan Nichols. I was a friend
of your stepfather.

Is it okay if we come in? We need to
talk to you about him. The principal is

trouble. James, who is it?

Just some people that want to talk to
me.

Well, honey, invite them in.

Can I talk with you a few minutes in
private?

It's urgent.

You know, why don't I go put on a pot of
coffee?

Right.

I might be able to help.

Hey, your friend's here.

Good to see you again.

It's been, what, a year now?

We were just about to sit down and have
dinner.

I haven't eaten yet. Enjoy.

James took Red Ribbon at the science
fair today.

Oh, yeah?

Salt volcano?

Cartesian diver.

Cartesian diver.

Good job, kiddo.

So how'd you two lose touch?

Our priorities shifted.

And what are your plans while you're in
town?

I just came with some old friends to
catch up a little.

They're coming by later, in fact.

They're eager to see John.

My family's not familiar with your gang.

Not at all?

No.

I really dwell on the past.

There's too much richness in the
present.

Our pals have already planned to see
you.

Counting on it.

You know how they are.

They won't leave without at least saying
hello.

Tell you what, why don't we meet them
out instead?

I need to subject Lillian James to a
house full of guests.

Sure.

Wouldn't want to inconvenience your
family now, would we?

I'm not interested in talking about what
my stepdad thought, okay?

So if you're just here to, I don't know,
find closure, then I can tell you what

I learned a long time ago.

You don't find any.

So what did your friends want to talk to
James about?

Family matter.

Your stepfather?

I'm not sure.

Our body's pretty secretive.

You heard about the John May message
that went out from the bottom of the V

ships? There's a lot of John Mays in the
world.

Your stepfather started the resistance
against the Vs before anybody even knew

they were here.

We're part of that resistance now.

Resistance? I thought the Vs were
friendly.

You guys are insane.

So how did you guys meet?

At a restaurant.

He was one table over, and he sort of
caught my eye.

That sounds romantic.

So why now?

What do you want?

John May had a comms device he used to
communicate with the resistance aboard

the mothership. We need that device to
contact an ally up there.

And James will run out of time.

Okay.

Maybe we can raise Morgan Kal -El on the
Creomne wave projector.

Look, James, I know it's a lot to wrap
your head around. You think?

Where did your stepdad keep his things?

Except in the storage unit in town.

That's harder looking at stuff
everywhere.

Look, man.

I'm sure you and my stepdad were
friends.

And you clearly have your whole cult
fantasy thing about how swell of a guy

Mayer was. But you weren't the one he
left when he killed himself.

James.

That's what I know is fake.

Have you lived here long?

No, I'm from L .A., so...

Oh, yeah? Did you go to school out
there?

At UCLA?

Great football.

You like football?

Oh, yeah.

I love the Trojans.

Me too.

The only problem is, UCLA's team is the
Bruins.

I meant the Bruins.

Yeah, I'm pretty good with lots of that.

Grace?

Oh, God.

Storage unit in town.

Let's move.

Are you with us?

James, are you with us?

Yeah.

The

name

you gave us isn't real.

Alex Morgan is real. Yes, she was.

He's stronger than we anticipated.

He resisted the scours.

You're going about this the wrong way.

He can lead us to the fifth column.

We have to dig deeper than the scours.

How long has she been like that for?

Why was she with me?

The bees planned her with you to watch
and wait.

She wasn't human, mate.

So don't sweat her.

How well did you know my stepdad?

He meant a lot to me.

Not an answer.

You haven't been all of that, have I?

Let's slow down.

Joshua said it was here somewhere,
right?

He said it was in Reesville. He didn't
say it was here.

Found it.

What if it doesn't work?

We try.

But Georgie died quickly.

Hey, come on!

He's been hiding something all day. I
don't trust this guy. Stop it!

It's about Georgie.

Georgie, who's up there right now.

He'll afford mistrust, guys.

Make no mistake, we will save him.

We can't lose our way every time we hit
a roadblock. Get it together!

What the hell are you doing?

I don't know.

We better get out of here before it
wakes up.

Here we go. There seems to be a
warehouse ready.

It's a secret.

Where is it?

I saw something flying over there. Where
the hell is it?

Did anybody see it?

Where is it?

Your girl with the pretty Kruger claws,
did she give you something like a

promise ring, anything?

Yeah, yeah.

She gave me the watch.

Let's go. Go, go, go. Come on. Come on,
go.

Have you prepared what I asked for?

Yes, it's ready when you are.

If we've learned anything, it's that
emotion is weakness.

Love is the greatest flaw of human.

And our best tool to break them.

He says he misses his family.

Let's show him his family.

Since we couldn't use your memories,
we've decided to show you someone

Here are the memories of the V who
killed your family.

Until he tells us what we want to know.

Perfect. See?

Pretty easy, right?

Yeah. I'm thirsty.

I'm going to get some sodas.

Do you want one?

Yeah. Can I get you one?

Please.

Listen,

my dad wants me to stay a few weeks.

And I'll still see you.

I really want to see you.

And I know it sucks, but maybe this will
help me and him fix this stuff.

What?

I overheard something, but I don't think
I should say anything.

What is it? Just tell me.

I can't. It's not my place.

Lisa, please, just... It's okay.

I think your father's been lying to you.

About what?

I don't think he's really your dad.

Come on, that's... That's ridiculous.

I overheard him talking to your mom.

I'm sorry.

I knew I shouldn't have said that. Hey,
guys, here we go.

What is it? What's wrong?

There's a weird mix -up going on here.

Lisa just said that she heard you
talking to Mom and you said something

not really being my dad.

I don't know. It's crazy.

Oh, sorry.

It's true.

It can't be.

This is me and you.

You look at her.

You lied.

Wait, wait, wait.

Is this why you left mom?

No.

I couldn't trust her, Ty.

What about me?

You left me too, Dad.

What, you feel duped for raising
somebody else's kid?

No. I love you, Ty.

Either way, please trust them.

You need to go talk to your mom about
this.

Yeah, I will.

Ty!

When I applied to be part of Live Aboard
at the Healing Center, I never thought

I'd get picked.

And... I never thought I'd get picked.

I've always thought of myself as having
bad luck. But this... Why'd you think

you had bad luck?

When I was 15, I had an appendectomy,
and complications left me unable to have

children. I mean, I feel blessed for
everything that I have, but that family

reunion, my siblings all have big
families, not a one under eight kids.

Everyone in your family?

Yes.

Siblings all have big families, not a
one under eight kids.

Not a one under eight kids.

Everyone in your family?

Yes. It's huge.

Joshua. Joshua, it's Ryan.

You found it good.

Yeah, hey, listen. We have a friend
that's up there. His name is Georgie

He went up there looking for me in the
car.

I haven't heard anything.

Yeah, well, he's up there, okay? And I
need you to find him, all right?

I will.

Keep the comms device closed.

Yeah. Bastard.

Hey.

That man changed my life.

Yeah.

Good for you.

Changed ours, too.

Now, listen to me, James.

Your stepfather didn't abandon you.

He never would have left you and your
mother if he wasn't forced to.

How the hell would you know?

Because I'm the one they're forcing to
leave.

So what have you been doing this last
year? Looking for you.

No, I mean, what have you experienced in
your time here?

You never took a drive in the middle of
the night just to feel the wind in your

face? Or had a cold pint on a warm day?

Saw a woman who literally took your
breath away?

See, I think you've been touched living
among people.

Maybe not much, but there's a glimmer.

I can see it in your face.

You know, the humans, they have an
expression they use when they realize

truly matters to them.

They said they found their true north.

Well, I found mine here, Ryan.

That woman and that boy.

What's that?

That's my suicide note.

Take a good look at that family in
there, Ryan. You tell me if I'm gonna

it.

They're expecting you, John.

Ten years ago when I came to your house
for dinner.

That was the day that I killed John May.

You knew.

And you didn't say anything. You knew
that John May is dead.

Not just dead.

Dead at his hand.

Every single day I wish I could go back
and undo what I did, but I can't.

All I can say is your stepfather lived
away.

I've taken risks that you can't even
imagine because of what he taught me.

This fight will be brutal beyond
anything you've ever seen.

And you too.

And John May is our greatest weapon in
it.

Anna ordered his death. Every single
time she sees the message, John May

it's like a dagger in her eye.

The fifth column exists because of him.

He existed because of you.

You and your mother, you taught him what
it's like to be human.

You taught me.

So if nothing else, I just figured that
you should know the truth.

No more lies.

I feel really stupid forgetting the
combination.

It happens more than you'd think.

Let's just see the...

Model number here.

The reset code is 83328 pound.

Okay, well, I'll just see myself out
then.

Convinced a lot of people today to come
live aboard your ships.

People like these two.

This woman comes from a family with
unusually high fertility rates, but

got a bad luck streak, can't have kids.
This guy, brilliant violin player, but a

total mess.

I looked into our other guests from
today's story.

Same deal.

All so full of potential, but they're
broken toys.

This type of person is of great interest
to you.

And the question is, why?

As sophisticated as humans are, you
don't see the true value in people.

You discard them.

I see their inner worth.

Every V, regardless of history or luck
or circumstance, receives my care.

I'm only showing humans the same regard.

Yeah. I'm not buying it.

I don't know exactly what all this means
yet, but I'm pretty sure it adds up to

something. And if I can get this far in
half a day, how far do you think I could

get in a month?

What do you want?

I'll tell you what I don't want.

I don't want to be ordinary.

If you were ordinary, Mr. Decker, you
wouldn't be here.

Which is exactly why I'm going to keep
digging into this. And eventually, I'll

find enough to run this story.

Or you could give me a bigger one.

I can protect you.

The question is, can we keep helping
each other?

I think that we'll be helping each other
for some time to come.

Ryan. Yeah, I'm here. How's he doing?

He's alive and he hasn't broken yet.

Can you move him?

Everyone's being watched too closely
right now.

But the live -aboard program commences
in a few days. I might be able to

him onto an outbound shuttle.

Will he last that long?

Yes.

Is he conscious?

Can you talk?

Go ahead.

Hey, buddy. How you doing?

Been better.

You're off the ship. You're safe, right?

Yeah.

I'm safe.

We're all safe.

We're going to get you out of there,
okay?

No.

It's what they're waiting for.

It's what they want.

Come rescue me. You won't get caught.

Georgie, listen to me.

All right? Just give us a few days. Just
hang on.

Right? I don't have a few more days,
Ryan.

speak to Jack.

Georgie.

Please. I need to speak to Jack, Ryan.

We're not leaving you up there, Georgie.

It's bigger than me now, Father.

No, Georgie.

Listen to me, okay? Hang on.

I'll see you around, Jack.

your son.

God bless you.

John May lives?

Georgie.

When you come down, come down easy.

Let your heart fly to the floor.

And if some...

Hey,

this is Belle. Leave a message.

Maybe it's me.

There's something I need to talk to you
about when I get home.

I'm not who you think I am.

Just feel you should know the truth.

No more lying.

I always wondered why he left.

Deep down, maybe I didn't know it had to
do with me.

It didn't, honey.

What did Dad tell you?

I know everything, Mom.

The tests are wrong.

The doctors were wrong. He is your dad.
I promise.

I'm according to him.

I know.

How could you not tell me? Because I was
scared you wouldn't believe me. And

I thought if I just kept going that
somebody would tell me that it was a

mistake. Because it is. It's a mistake.

And I didn't.

I never.

I thought that I could always trust you.

You can't. You can't. I was coming home.
Why should I believe you? Because it's

true. How can I believe you?

Please, Tyler.

Please.

It's not true.

George Sutton died.

The emotional trauma must have been too
intense for him.

We did not get any names.

John May lives.

Trite and untrue, but even still, the
message the fifth column sends seems to

have produced something of a
groundswell.

Let them have this one victory.

Because I'm about to deliver them.

A thousand defeat.
