Previously on V.

Dorita Malick has gone missing. Find her and identify those responsible.

They corrupted Tyler's DNA.

What do you know about Anna's plan for him?

It's getting... I need to warn my mom about this priest, Jack Landry, but she

won't listen to me. I knew Anna would try and manipulate my interview somehow,

but this... It's okay, Chad.

The fifth column will hold strong.

It's time you met the others.

What did you discover today?

I know who took Malick. I found the fifth column.

Three peace ambassadors' bodies were found when they opened the PA center

morning. Throats slipped. They must have been murdered and strung up in the

middle of the night. They're waiting for us to ID them.

Hello, it's Jax.

The Italians did this to Mussolini at the end of World War II.

I strung him up. I had to brand him a traitor.

Looks like somebody in fifth column is a student of history.

They've paid credit already.

First to coordinate suicide bombings around the world.

Now that's... I don't know.

I don't know what I'm saying. I don't know what's going on.

Hey, hey! Hey, hey! Tyler, hey! It's fine.

Stop!

What happened? We were supposed to be there.

They're my friends.

I know.

Ty, trust me.

I'm going to find out who did this.

You've got the night with your daughter, as you agreed.

Now it's morning.

The fifth column has acted again, killing three of my peace ambassadors.

I want you to find out who's responsible for this and for the abduction of

Serena Malick.

My bliss have alleviated her pain, but it will wear off soon, Ryan.

A man named Elikel.

He commands the faction of the fifth column at Azmalic. Find them.

Your daughter's so peaceful when she's not in pain.

With Malick still missing this morning's triple homicide, they're sticking me

with some new hotshot partner from D .C. Great. Another set of eyes on us. Just

what we need. And we still haven't dumped what's left of Lady Lizard over

Well, we can't just get rid of Malick. The Bureau is all over this case. Until

they close it, their focus could strengthen me, which means us. It's not

any easier.

Not until we stop Eli Cohen and his radical fifth column.

Ryan's right. Cohen's out of control. That could have been Tyler this morning,

with his throat slit.

Yes, but it wasn't.

We take out Cohen, we lose a huge asset.

His army, his international connections.

I'm not saying we don't need the help, just not his help.

With Cohen in the picture, we are fighting two enemies here. Yeah, him and

You said the FBI's got no leads on his whereabouts.

Yeah, Cohen's ex Mossad. He's a ghost. The ghost who is pulling kids off of the

street and killing them. I'm not waiting for my kid to be next. We'll find

Cohen.

What if we let him find us?

The first suicide bomber. His friends attend my church. Now, some of them may

Cohen people, too. Now, what if... What if I let them know I'm ready to meet

their boss?

Take this down to Forensics. See if we can get a match.

You get Tyler home okay? Yeah, he's fatality is hanging in. Look, I bought

new partner. I don't have time to break in someone new. This is the director's

go -to guy.

You can relax.

You already know.

Chris Walling.

Erica Evans.

You're the hotshot agent from D .C.? Standards are slipping.

Can you believe it's taken the Bureau this long to finally put us together?

After the trouble we got into in the Academy?

Trouble? I don't remember any trouble.

I hope you don't mind I'm here.

No, it's okay.

I am glad to have you.

Okay. I figured I'd dive right in.

I've been looking at everything you've got on fifth column, and I noticed

something. Do you mind?

I took a step back, looked at it from a wide angle, asked myself, what sticks

out? And everywhere I look, this guy keeps popping up.

Jack Landry. I think the good father might be able to tell us something about

the peace ambassador murders.

Topping headlines today, fifth column, the anti -v -terrorist group responsible

for the suicide bombings in each of the 29 cities where visitor ships are

present has now claimed responsibility for the peace ambassador murders in New

York City earlier this morning.

In addition to the escalation of violence against the visitors, a growing

of religious figures have begun speaking out against the Vs. It remains

uncertain as to whether they will ultimately urge acceptance or dissent.

Among those leaders, Cardinal Janusz Woliczek has been heading up the

discussions at the Vatican, but as of yet, no answers.

Perhaps we should help Cardinal Woliczek in his search for answers.

Chad, thank you for coming on such short notice.

Nice to know I have someone like you whom I can trust.

You still haven't told me where we're headed.

Life goes on.

Besides, we're already here.

This is Chad Decker reporting live from St. Peter's Square in Vatican City,

where in just a few moments I will join Anna as she meets with Cardinal

Secretary of State Janusz Woliczek to discuss the possibility of inviting

missionaries on board Mothership to teach the visitors about humanity's

preeminent religious institutions.

Welcome, Anna.

On behalf of His Holiness, I welcome you to the Vatican. Thank you, Cardinal.

I'm humbled by your esteemed presence.

This way, please.

Thank you so much for coming.

Watch your step.

Thank you for coming.

Father, much more outspoken than usual.

Yeah, I'm warm fed up.

Can't help the feel. It's time to...

It's time to do something.

It's starting to sound a lot like fifth column there, Father.

Maybe so.

But more and more, I think I get what those guys are trying to do.

How's Tyler handling what happened this morning?

As well as can be expected. Thank you for asking.

So, not to get awkward, but I heard about your last two partners, both

It's been a couple of months.

Should I be worried?

It'll keep me from going missing. I'll be whatever you want me to be.

When was the last time you talked to this priest?

We hauled him in a few weeks ago.

Put him through the ringer. I got the same vibe that you did at first.

Guy's got a big mouth.

Harmless.

Father Landry.

Agent Evans, is it? Yes, this is Agent Bowling. Hi.

We'd like to ask you a few questions about the peace ambassador murders this

morning. I heard it's a tragedy.

Most of this fifth column violence is done by a guy named Eli Cohn.

FBI's been monitoring him. Ever heard of him?

No.

The reason we ask is when it comes to Fifth Column, your name keeps popping

Really?

How exactly did it keep popping up?

You were a person of interest in the shuttle shoot -down.

The Healing Center suicide bomber claims your word as his inspiration.

Like any man of faith, I speak from my heart.

That doesn't mean I'm advocating violence, but I'm a threat.

But you're no saint.

Your army jacket credits you with two kills of enemy combatants in Iraq.

It's not exactly the usual thing for a chaplain, is it?

I did what I had to do to protect fallen soldiers.

Military path does vote against the Vs.

Take away the collar, Father. You fit the fifth column profile pretty good.

But I do have a collar.

And I'll humble it, all right?

So, unless you have anything more than speculation, you can see yourselves out.

You're kidding, right?

You're hiding something.

It has been my pleasure to welcome many a visiting dignitary, but never one as

charming nor certainly as exotic as you.

You flatter me, Your Eminence.

I cannot tell you how much the prospect of introducing your religion to my

people excites me.

Introducing the visitors to our faith is an exciting prospect for us as well.

I'm so pleased to hear that.

Before you go, There is one more thing.

This morning in New York, three peace ambassadors were killed.

The perpetrators, the same group that bombed our healing centers, cited

inspiration from one of your parish priests.

I'm sure you would agree that priests shouldn't use their position to speak

in hate against any single group.

Certainly not.

Then you'll understand that before I can recommend your religion to my people, I

must ask that you issue a strong condemnation of all your clergy who

any form of anti -visitor rhetoric.

An unconditional condemnation, of course.

All I can offer, Anna, is that I will bring your request to the college.

That's all I can ask for you, Ellen.

That ring that priest wears.

I've seen it before.

When I was younger.

Find out everything you can about her.

I've been keeping an eye on your father.

I'm glad you finally expressed interest in befriending our cause.

It's time we met.

There's a vacant lot on 6th and Kittredge.

Be there at 3 o 'clock today.

I'll know if you're not alone.

Israeli. It's got to be Cohen.

We finally got a beat on him.

Nice work setting yourself up as bait.

So Cohen's hooked, okay. Now, how are we going to get to him? First meeting,

Cohen's going to be extra careful.

He'll have his men sweep Jack for tracking devices.

There's no way humanly possible for us to trail him. So say the human.

The tracking I used when I was a sleeper.

It's undetectable by human technology.

part of this potentially historic union between the Catholic Church and the

visitors. In light of recent anti -V violence, some say this couldn't have

at a better time. In light of recent anti -V violence, Cohen is playing right

into Anna's hands. He's giving her exactly the ammunition that she needs.

Anna succeeds, that's a billion Catholics supporting the Lizards. Now,

going to need some friends, even ones like Cohen.

We need to at least listen to this guy. He killed three more innocents this

morning. He lost that option.

17 dead at the healing center, three more this morning.

I'm not waiting for the next one.

Father, a moment.

These works of art are quite beautiful.

They are.

I often like to be here alone with my thoughts.

or as alone as one can be in the presence of such magnificent work.

The image is quite disturbing. What does it represent?

The underworld, hell, where the unrepentant are sent upon their death.

Satan, a fallen angel, is surrounded by the souls of the damned.

I find it curious that you believe the soul can survive the death of the body.

It is the cornerstone of our faith that the soul is immortal, meant for

everlasting life.

The human soul interests you.

Yes.

Indeed, very much.

For example, do you believe the body can exist without the soul?

It is the soul that makes us human.

Without it.

Well, we would be nothing more than animals.

Tyler, you've got to stop looking at this.

You're driving yourself crazy.

It's priests like him that are inciting the fifth column.

My friends are dead because of it. I'm not reporting to violence against

Certainly not against... Let's get a wink from Melvin. for a while, okay?

Let's go do something.

You're right.

I shouldn't just sit here.

I should do something.

Tyler, where are you going?

Payback. For my friends who were killed this morning.

Starting with Father Jack Landry.

Tyler, you don't even know that he's responsible.

He's preaching anti -B. Hey, that's good enough.

Tyler.

Tyler!

Going in by yourself is dangerous, Jack.

You okay with that?

Well, like you said this morning, I've got the profile for this kind of thing.

Why didn't you tell me about Iraq?

Two kills? Talking about it isn't going to undo it.

Your new partner's good, which is not good for us. No, it's not. He's one of

best.

Magnesium compounds.

They help extract it.

Locked and loaded.

Let's do this.

This is what Callan said to me.

Who the hell is he?

Surprise, surprise. Hey, Father.

Not really.

Sorry, we gotta take precaution.

He's clean. Let's go.

Set it down.

This isn't right. We shouldn't be here.

No, this is time we sent them a message of our own.

You're scaring me. What?

We're standing up for you? For the visitors?

Right?

Your suspicions about Moreau were correct.

He is one of us.

A sleeper.

He failed to identify himself to me.

What else do you know about him?

He was dispatched to Earth by the previous queen, your mother.

His last contact was 15 years ago. According to this, his assignment was to

study human emotion and its effect on our species.

After all these years, I wonder what he'd learned about emotion and the soul.

Make sure he returns with us when we leave.

The college is prepared to render its decision.

I am sorry, but after careful deliberation with the full College of

we will not condemn those clergy who feel called upon to speak their minds.

Your Eminence, distinguished company, in the short time that I've been among

humans, I've come to understand the simple power that faith holds, but its

simplicity is also its weakness.

Why do over a... A billion followers look to you and your church for answers.

Because the answers lie here. Because they believe the answers lie here.

And why do they believe that?

Their faith requires it.

But their faith in your institution is born from proof.

Countless moments, large and small, over the centuries, that fuel their faith.

You call them miracles.

Our gifts to the people of Earth, the healing centers, blue energy, red rain,

merely products of highly advanced science, but also viewed as miracles by

It would be tragic for centuries of faith to suddenly turn from you to me,

because I can be mistaken for someone with answers.

Believe me.

That's not something I want.

But how many more miracles do you think it would take for your followers to look

to me?

One a day?

Two?

that you reevaluate your division.

In the name of faith.

We've just received word that the College of Cardinals has voted

welcome the visitors as potential members of the church and will issue a

statement shortly condemning all anti -V rhetoric among its clergy.

Anna now looks forward to meeting with leaders from other major religions,

hoping for a similar welcome.

Your Eminence.

Excuse me. Yes, Mr. Becker, what do you need?

There was a priest by your side earlier.

I wanted to say goodbye, but I can't seem to find him. Yes, Father Monroe. I

have been informed that he's volunteered to be the first missionary amongst the

visitors. Speaking of Anna.

Hello, Father Landry.

I'm Eli Cohen.

Drop your

weapon. Step away.

Three against one, mate. Make the smart move.

I got a good shot on America.

Erica. Evans.

What, you don't think I do my homework?

My FBI flag?

Obviously off the grid on this one.

Since I'm not dead.

You must be Fib Collin.

We're all on the same side, are we not?

That's what we're here to find out.

The difference is, unlike you, we don't kill innocent people.

They're not innocent people.

They're collaborators.

So that's your answer, to murder your own kind.

There are some things you just don't do, even in war.

This isn't like any war we've ever fought.

You see, Anna, she needs our cooperation.

That's the only way she can use us. The breathing.

How do you know it?

How do you know it?

Eighteen years ago, my wife suffered through a difficult pregnancy.

She delivered a healthy boy, but he died suddenly. He was only a few months old.

I wouldn't accept that there was no explanation, so I investigated her

and come to find out he's been working with a visit.

They did something to my wife when she was pregnant.

They did something to my son.

I'm not a monster, Erica.

What?

Mr. Decker.

You know who I am.

Of course.

That's just the world.

You claimed to be a true friend to Anna and the visitors, spreading their

message like a prophet.

But I noticed how you reacted to Anna today.

You were bothered by her presence at the Vatican, weren't you?

As were you.

I don't understand.

I was told that you volunteered to be the first missionary to the visitors.

That was a story that Anna created.

Who are you?

Just a faithful soul.

It's more than that, isn't it?

Let me help you.

No.

My fate is already sealed.

But yours is not.

Whatever feelings you have about Anna, trust them.

Keep up your fight.

What information have you extracted from his memory? None, I'm afraid.

He seems to possess some inner strength that allows him to fight memory

retrieval.

Leave me.

Both of you.

You've been infected by human emotion.

Is that why you didn't identify yourself to me at the Vatican?

I was given explicit orders to report only to my queen. I am your queen.

All this time, you've been studying human emotions and a soul.

I demand that you tell me everything you've discovered.

I would only tell Diana what I've learned.

You want to see your queen?

She's in hell.

Like other souls of the damned.

Maybe we can work something out here.

This doesn't have to end badly for you.

It doesn't have to end badly for any of us. If you join me.

Anna was at the Vatican today. She's making big moves.

We need to do the same.

Big moves? Like the three kids you strung up this morning?

More suicide bombers?

How many more innocent souls do you plan to take?

My faith taught me to value every soul.

But in this kind of war, I've had to learn to adapt.

Compromise. Make sacrifices.

So will you.

You know what? Maybe we can use this guy.

Malik's body.

What are you talking about? Erica, you want someone responsible for this

morning's Pete and Ambassador murders.

We need someone to pin Malick's death on the closing investigation.

Two birds with one stone.

He's right, Erica.

I think there's a way we can cement this new bond of ours. We have no bond.

I will give you the two men who killed the peace ambassadors.

You can use them as scapegoats for your partner's disappearance.

I'll be in this cabin here tonight at 9 o 'clock, ready to take the fall. Yeah,

why would they do that?

I already told you, Father.

Sacrifice.

We have a deal?

Go to your queen.

That you were dead, my queen.

Make him tell us everything he knows about the soul.

It's okay.

Tell me what you know.

Yes, my queen.

Years ago, you tasked me with determining the risk of human emotion

contaminating our species.

Among all those that we have bred with, it is now my determination that the

human soul is truly unique.

It is not a curse.

But it is, in fact, the greatest gift our species has ever found.

We must not run from it.

We must embrace it and make it part of us.

For 15 years, I have been confined in this place.

All those years, I've never lost hope, never lost the will to live.

It was the soul that sustained you, my queen.

And if protected...

It will sustain our species in the future. Enough.

I will use what you know to eradicate the soul.

When you're being skinned, inch by inch, you'll tell me everything.

Indeed, I probably would.

I am grateful that it will be you, my queen.

I gave a loyal servant the honorable death he deserved.

He's right, daughter.

The soul is not a curse.

It is a blessing.

And we must not deny our species this gift.

Congratulations, mother.

You just killed your only ally.

I refuse to believe there are only chances to stop analyzing joining up

someone like Eli Cohn.

It's on the start, believing father.

A merry little band, just ain't cutting it.

Look, I don't like him any more than you do.

All right, but if we could use him to tie up Malik's death and blame it on

somebody else, that's an offer we just can't pass up. We have to close the

investigation.

And I want the men who murdered those peace ambassadors this morning.

It's always that first bite of the apple.

What happened?

Anybody hurt?

Three teenagers.

Happened so quick, I didn't really see anything.

What did the police say?

I didn't call the authority. I didn't want to bring any more attention onto

Me?

If your anti -V rhetoric has turned our church into a target, you did this,

Jack.

Erica? Kendrick said you were back.

Thank you for covering me. I got to spend some time with Tyler.

Look, Erica, we're not just partners.

We're friends.

It is nice to have someone that I can trust.

Did you get anywhere in our investigation?

I'm going after the surveillance warrants for that priest.

And?

It's going to take a couple of days, but I'll get him.

Five Brothers Textiles.

That's the suicide bomber investigation, yeah?

Yeah. It's the last place Malik and I were checking out before she was

I did what you suggested. I took a step back and I gave old evidence a fresh,

wide -angle look. This, this stuck out. A receipt?

On the other side, there's a number. I thought it was an address or a partial

phone number, but wide -angle got me thinking, so I put the number through a

substitution cipher and...

I got a hit on the result with a tri -state DMV. It's a plate number for a

van.

Witnesses at the peace ambassador murder is ID'd a blue van leading the scene.

I got the address, too.

The cabin, upstate New York.

Wide angle.

partner deserved better.

I

wasn't

able to get Malik out alive.

And the fifth column who killed her.

Get an anonymous call.

Point the FBI in the right direction.

And Malik's true identity was not compromised?

She never broke.

I disposed of her remains and I brought that back to you for proof.

Now, bless my daughter.

Not yet.

We had a deal.

I still need something from you.

Getting this brought you in proximity to Eli Cohn, correct?

Correct. Good.

I want you to get close to him.

Get him to trust you.

You want Cone so bad?

Why don't you just take him out yourself?

I don't want just him.

I want all of them.

I want you to infiltrate his organization.

Become my eyes and ears.

And when the time comes, you will help me destroy them all.

Of vandalism, no.

But with this... Coming off the heels of Anna's visit to the Vatican, church

officials have issued a statement condemning all anti -V rhetoric from

worldwide.

Effective immediately, the Vatican pledges that intolerance against the

will be dealt with swiftly and severely.

Are you going to be okay?

Probably not.

Because I'm not going to stop speaking out.

That's tiny's phone.

I'm so sorry, Jack.

This is not the boy that I raised.

I know.

I feel like I'm losing him.

Jack, I... I need help.

I'll do anything I can.

Any problem pushing through that surveillance order this afternoon?

No.

I pulled footage from every traffic camera near Jack Landry's church.

You asked me to tell you if I noticed anything suspicious about Eric Evans.

You said you hadn't spoken to him in weeks. This was taken four days ago.

You gonna be okay with this assignment, Bowling?

I know you two are friends.

That's why you asked for me.
