This is what our Triad is meant to do.
Why are you smiling?
Because this will bring about
the alighting.
Just as Ophiuchus has a plan for you, Max,
it has one for her.
Help! Help me!
[grunting]
[yells]
Focus on that Bible, and I'll do the rest.
DALLAS: These glasses are the key to decoding my dad's Bible.
This Bible will have your instructions.
Once you get those glasses, you'll be able to
know everything you want about your father.
THEO: When the time comes, you'll find your way to it.
The key to reading it will be in a secret spot
that only you will know.
Toss the glasses and the Bible over to me, or she goes in.

Come on, Alex.
You've got my attention,
so show me something.
[inhales deeply]
[exhales]
[mechanical thump]
What are you doing?
I have been trying all night to get another message from Alex.
I thought maybe a séance
would help me connect with his spirit,
but so far...Teen Witch fire hazard isn't working?
I know that this isn't your thing, but you read Kyle's text.
Alex has had zero contact with Deep Sky,
and I'm just... starting to get worried
that he...Hey.
Alex is not dead.
There has to be a scientific explanation
for how Alex is reaching out to you.
[sighs]: Right.
You have a working theory?
At first, I thought this was a resurgence of your powers,
like a vision of Alex manifesting itself.
But your brain scans match up
with your last checkup, post-cure,
which means this is not a vision.
Alex is alive.
And he's figuring out a way to communicate with you.
We've seen versions of this before.
You did it in the coma.
Max talked to Rosa in the pod.
So you think Alex is trapped somewhere,
and he's reaching out for help?
I think we got to switch séance
[door opens]for science.
Surprise, witches!
Bet you thought you'd seen the last of me.
I would have been here sooner,
but Papi busted out the welcome-home pancakes.
Why are you back?
I called for some reinforcements.
Rosa has been honing her echolocation power.
And now seemed like the perfect time to test it.
So...
you used to talk to me when I was dead.
The least I can do is hop on a red-eye
to prove that Alex isn't.
Oh, well, Iz, whatever you were searching for out here,
I'd say we're one barn fire too late.
When I was helping Dallas unlock his memories from '47,
we ended up in this spot in a mindscape.
Michael, I had a memory of fighting Tezca
as a little girl.
You thought placing yourself at the...
trigger point would,
well, trigger you.When we were fighting, Tezca told me,
"No matter where in the universe you are...
my blade will find you."
'Cause that's not unsettling at all.I mean,
what's unsettling is, it wasn't even a threat.
It's not like she was trying to goad me into a fight.
I was seeking
her approval.
Maybe not remembering is for the best.
What good has ever come from us poking into our childhood?
If there is a connection between me and Tezca,
maybe we can figure out where Dallas is.
Just be careful.
In my experience dealing with the Dark Triad,
it's the thing that draws you in...
that ends up hurting you the most.
Hey.
Can I get you a coffee
or whip up some...Uh, I got to change
before I head to the lab.
Um, can we talk for a second?
I was worried about you.
About us.
It's never a good sign
when Liz Ortecho crosses state lines.
I wasn't running away.
[sighs]: I just...
I needed some time to clear my head.
Did you find what you were looking for?
Hitched a ride
with Shivani on her private plane to New York,
where Rosa put into perspective
my recent penchant for alien-themed gastronomy
and blue book pop quizzes.
Turns out, in leaning hard away
from the science, I was denying my authentic self.
Shivani and I, we've got
a promising theory on how to disable Bonnie's virus.
Oh.
Well, uh, just be careful out there.
We have a bit of a situation.
I mean, Tezca's behind alien bars,
but Clyde's in the wind, and no one
has heard from Dallas or Bonnie since yesterday.
What? No, no, no, we'll find them.
Michael and I are meeting up to search right now.
Alex is missing, too. And now,
like some alien medium, Maria's been getting messages from him.
Well, I got to tell Michael...
No, wait, wait, uh...
Mikey runs hot.
News like this, that's gonna tear him apart.
Especially when we have no information.
I think we should give Maria some time to figure this out.
You really think secrecy is the best plan?
I don't know, I just...
I'm close to a cure for Michael,
and that'll help even the odds against these aliens,
who probably know where our friends are.
Which is why I think you should take my cure
and get your powers back. And considering
we are woefully low on aliens to fight aliens,
I... I think that would help us.
Why can't you just accept that I am perfectly capable of helping
without abilities?'Cause that is a huge gamble.
And it's selfish.
Not only are you
denying your powers,
but you're also denying who you are.Well, look,
I'm glad you found your path,
and I support you on that.
But this is how I go about mine.
[sighs]
Well, then we're right where we were yesterday.
[sighs]
MAX: Wait, remind what we're doing
trespassing on government property.
We're so far out, even God forgot this place exists.
I got a call
to tow an abandoned junker that matches Dallas's wheels.
Figured it was worth pursuing.
Good call.
You heard from Maria lately?
I keep calling her to see
if her chess partner checked in, but...
Yeah, she's fine.
Um, Liz saw her last night.
What's with the vibe?
I don't have a vibe.
I don't need my alien mojo to know
when something's wrong with you.
Oh. You're in your feels 'cause we're Muggles now.
Well, actually, uh, Liz is working on that.
She thinks she can bring your powers back.
You passing on it?
Uh... yeah, I mean, I think it's best
if I keep the blue flame locked up.
That's what you want?
What I want is to be a normal guy from Roswell.
This might be my shot.
I just wish I could make Liz understand
that I'm doing it for us.
Hmm.
Hey. There's a car over there.
The plates match.
It's Dallas's.
Doesn't take cop instincts
to figure out this is Clyde's doing.
If Clyde did find him, I bet he's got Theo's Bible.
[sighs]
Things just went from bad to worse.
!¡Maldita sea!
Que demonios.Okay.
Of the little Spanish I know,
none of those words sound celebratory.
The regenerative enzymes in the blood sample
we brought back from New York...Mm-hmm.
isn't healing the diseased cells in our subject.
What about using the biosynthetic compound
that my team developed?
The fluid stimulates the proteins momentarily,
but it isn't potent enough
to sustain their viability.
[sighs] Maybe there's just no solution to this.
Okay, I like to think of a setback as an opportunity
for ideas to blossom.
It's not... working.
Then be the one to make the improbable possible.
We are so close
to a breakthrough.
Liz, I haven't asked for anything,
and what I need right now is your word.
Can I trust you?
Of course.
[beeping]
You had a pod this whole time?
The vestiges of one.
My team found it in Careyes.
The viscous liquid we developed
was formulated using the fluid from within.
It contains restorative properties
identical to the ones that you've been researching.
In gene-sequencing your work,
I found micromolecular inconsistencies,
and this crack explains why.
Oxygen is changing the fluid's chemical composition.
In order
to continue testing, we need a pod that's in working condition.
You got one in a junk drawer?
Now it's my turn to share a secret.
Found it.
[deep whooshing]
[high-pitched ringing]
[exhales]
I can hear the frequency of Alex's DNA in the hair, but...
nowhere else.
[sighs]
I-I'm just...
I'm lost. If you can't even hear him...
Honestly, maybe I'm not supposed to.
I mean, he's been reaching out to you.
Maybe that's for a reason.
Michael and Liz got messages, too.
When they were with you.
I mean, Maria, this could be a new power.
I don't know.We know that the Caulfield experiments
warped your family's alien ability.
If Liz was able to reverse the effects
of your brain degeneration, then it makes sense
that you're going through your own alien puberty.
[scoffs] It's doubtful.
Alex has been silent,
even now that I've been trying to listen.
Maybe his messages aren't coming through
because you're not in the right headspace to hear them.
I know what that's like. When we were trying to save you,
it was all so overwhelming-- everything riding on me
to just get it together.
But I did.
You can, too.
How'd you do it?
Isobel taught me
that in order to silence all the noise,
you have to find a place inside yourself
where you feel safe and calm.
What makes you feel like you can silence
everything to hear the imperceptible?
My mom.
I got my strength from her.
And when your mom felt lost,
what did she do?
Well, she would take
long, barefoot walks in the desert.
All right.
Looks like we're getting our steps in.
ISOBEL: I've come for answers.
My buddy Dallas is missing,
and I have a hunch that your little partner in crime
might have something to do with it.
Clyde's no partner of mine.
Well, you still know his plans for Dallas.
So why don't you be a good prisoner and, uh,
tell me Jones' plan, hmm?I'd rather take
my last breath than ever give my enemy a single answer.
I used to think that you were my enemy, too.
But yesterday,
fighting you triggered a memory.
I trained with you as a child.
But considering the fact
that my mother and Jones despised each other,
I have a hard time believing
that she would willingly allow me to learn
from the devil's lieutenant.
We've never crossed paths on Oasis.
Then why do I remember you telling me...
"No matter where in the universe you are,
my blade will find you."
[grunting]
Don't get arrogant. Anticipate my move.
[grunting]
That's the spirit.
You remember telling me those words.
I can see it in your eyes.
So...
looks like you and I have the same question.
Why?
Ah, they're even more beautiful than I imagined.
Are there two others in addition to your subject?
I'm bending my moral compass to the point of breaking.
The less you know, the better for all involved.
Watching you handle that pod with care,
there's a familiarity that goes beyond scientific inquiry.
Max Evans is an alien, isn't he?
His secret is safe.
I know what it's like to hide something
the world isn't ready to understand.
This is ridiculous.
My feet hurt. I keep stepping on these little pebbles.
You know there's tarantulas out here, right?
I think Mimi was really onto something.
Energy rises from the ground into your feet,
and since consciousness is a tangible form of energy
connecting us to all matter, astrophysicists believe that...
meditation could open you up to speaking over universes,
even dimensions.
Trying to figure out why I'm an alien tuning fork
led me to some very unexpected people, but...
Listen, just... relax.
Close your eyes. Take a deep breath.
[both inhale deeply]
Focus on your surroundings.
Let go of any of the weight you may feel,
the judgment.
[whooshing]
It's a locust.
Alex was looking for these before he went missing.
Missing?
What do you mean Alex went missing?
SHIVANI: Why atomize the fluid into a mist?
I made slight genetic modifications
to accelerate enzyme inhibitors
for swift cell regeneration.
Molecules, they travel faster in a gaseous state
than in liquid form.
If this cure eradicates the alien virus,
could it be repurposed to fight off human illness?
Like a universal vaccine?
Interspecies scaling at this level would be a huge leap.
It's working.
The proteins are strengthening the cells.
You did it!Oh!
Oh![exhales]
Max will be thrilled.
Max doesn't want the cure.
Max has been struggling with control,
and this compound does more than prevent the sniffles in aliens.
He's made his choice.Oh. And you disagree.
I'm quite familiar with being on opposite sides
in a relationship.
As you know, my wife is relentless
when she's made up her mind.
Which doesn't exactly mesh with my stubbornness.
How do you find common ground
when neither of you wants to budge?
Allie and I have difficulty meeting in the middle
about anything lately.
If you find out, will you let me know?
Oh!
So, a bug flies on your arm,
and you think that means Alex is missing?
Feels like a stretch.It's not just the locust.
You were there with the poster.
Alex is out chasing weather balloons.
If something was wrong, Eduardo would have told us.
Liz reached out to Eduardo.
Deep Sky hasn't heard from Alex, either.
So everyone's on the group chat but me.I'm sorry.
We didn't want to worry you. We were planning on telling you
when things were less confusing.
ROSA:And look, it's not all bad news.
We believe that Alex is reaching out to Maria,
the same way that she reached out to me
when Jones trapped her in the coma.
How is that not bad news? You don't think if he
was trying to talk to someone, he'd be trying to talk to me?
ROSA: I mean, she might be
the only one that's listening right now.
What the hell's that supposed to mean?
You don't think I was thinking of Alex
every single second?
I was risking my life to stop whatever Milky Way mess
the Dark Triad set in motion.
Oh, and you... what have you done lately?
Besides pretending that you still have powers?!
♪ There ain't no grave
♪ Can hold my body down
♪ No, there ain't no grave
♪ Can hold my body down
Hey. I'm glad you're here. So it turns out
the notes that Dallas was scribbling were directions...
[grunting]
♪ Ain't no grave
♪ Can hold my body down
[Max grunts]
Get off me!
I will when you calm down!
[grunts, pants]
How can you keep Alex missing a secret from me?
Because people thought that this is exactly what would happen.
I could have been looking for him.
How? We have no idea what's going on.
And even if we did, we don't have powers.
I walked through a wall of fire... to save Liz
from a literal dictator.
And you want to make me feel melodramatic?
When you knew, you knew that the man that I love...
I did this because of Liz.
[sighs] We're not in a good place.
Okay? She had this whole thing set up.
I didn't want to betray her again by undermining it.
To win back the girl, you stabbed me in the back.
I never meant for you to get hurt.
Okay? You have to believe me.
You have spent years
insisting that we are family.
If you believe that,
then you wouldn't have used my suffering to fix your love life.
♪ There ain't no grave
Hope the wedding's worth losing a brother.
♪ There ain't no grave
♪ Can hold my body down. [sighs]
My savior warned us
of rebels with the abilities to deceive our emotions.
I was born into Ophiuchus
and molded into its fiercest warrior.
I have devoted my life to taking a stand against its enemies.
You don't have to believe me,
but you should at least believe yourself.
I can help
unlock your subconscious,
Tezca.And why would I do that?
Because a great warrior will get all the intel she needs
before she goes into battle.
[high-pitched ringing]
You're not afraid I'll run?
I think you're more interested in our shared history.
[high-pitched ringing][screaming]
ISOBEL: I know there's got to be more. Let me show you.
TEZCA: You're turning into quite the bold warrior.
ISOBEL: I want to be
as strong as my mother someday.
You know, your mother's gone
precisely because she loves you so much.
She's fighting to protect you and countless other families.
Where's your family, Teacher?
My students are my family.
You're my family.
We're bound by our blades.
No matter where in the universe you are,
my blade will find you.
You're going to be the fiercest warrior somebody,
but never forget: a warrior's true strength is her compassion.
That's what makes you so special.
Because I can see the truth?
Just like my mother?
It's a beautiful gift.
One that evil people will try to corrupt for their own means.
That's why it's so important
that we teach you to protect yourself.
Because you deserve a say in your own story.
You see? I told you.
Our stories are connected.
[grunting]
[panting]
The lair's closed to liars.
I deserve that.
Can I make it up to you?
Get you your powers back?
[takes deep breath]
MICHAEL: Sure this is gonna work?
LIZ: Given you are my first and only trial? No.
But this should restore your powers.
[inhaling]
[gas hissing]
[exhales]
Don't be mad at Max and Maria, okay?
It was my idea.
I'm sorry. I just...
When I found out that Alex was missing,
this pain...
crept up in my chest.
It was the same as when I thought...
I had lost Max for forever.
That day my whole world
came crumbling down, and I didn't want yours to shatter,
if there was still hope.
That dose should be enough.
[inhales]
[exhales]
You treated me like a child.
Mm-hmm.
And I acted like one.
Oh, I said nasty things to Deluca,
because I couldn't face myself.
You aren't the reason Alex is...Invisible?
A ghost?
He needed me,
and I was too busy playing Donnie Brasco
with my new alien besties.
I was so consumed with finding a way home
that I lost sight of the home I was trying to build with him.
Blaming yourself's not gonna bring him back.
You know, we all make missteps,
even in the strongest relationships.
It just means we got to try and do better next time.
How's that working out for you and Evans?
[sighs] He's making a huge mistake.
I mean, his abilities are a part of who he is.
But what I have learned from Alex,
it's that no matter how hard you...
grasp onto sand...
it still slips through your fingers.
Max has to go down his own path.
Even if you think it's a mistake.
Otherwise it's gonna tear the two of you apart.
[timer ringing]
Okay, Guru...
let's see if it worked.
See if you can get me
that wrench.[exhales]
[high-pitched ringing]
[laughing] It's a start, but I will take it.
Thank you, Ortecho, thank you.
We can sit here,
stoically staring off into the sunset
like two gruff cowboys,
or we can talk this time.
I can tell your lip
isn't the only thing hurting.
I should have pushed back harder on keeping Michael in the dark.
Why didn't you?
'Cause I wanted to restore your faith in me.
I wanted to make sure that we were okay.
I shouldn't have put you in that position.
And Michael is upset, but you guys are family,
and you'll find a way to make it up to him.
How?
Every single thing I do feels uncertain.
I mean, I used to know exactly what to do.
I'm sorry, Max.
I'm so excited
about finally knowing my path forward that...
I wanted the same for you.
That's the problem.
I don't know if this is the real me.
You know, I thought that being
just a normal guy from Roswell...
I don't know, maybe it's something else to hide behind.
You know, without my abilities, I don't feel the pressure
to be everyone's savior.
You know,
I can hold your hand without worrying I'll hurt you.
But I don't want to be someone that turns their back
on their family, or...
who's constantly breaking your heart.
My heart is not broken, Max Evans.
A much wiser, resurrected- from-the-dead sister
once told me:
"Expectations only hold us back."
So without them,
that is how you're gonna figure out who you are.
I don't know how to do that.
All we can do is try.
Life...
is gonna keep punching...
until you know who you are
and you swing back.
I will always be on your side,
regardless of what path you choose.

[yelling, grunting]
You don't want to kill me, Tezca.
What you want is more answers.
What I want is to silence your lies.

You said it yourself: I have the ability to see the truth.
Don't you want to know what you're fighting for?
Show me.

I hate you with the fire of our two suns.
Well, that sounds like a challenge

When I'm done with you,
you won't love those children you teach...
...you'll only love me.

We're closed.
MICHAEL: Even for a friend that needs to apologize?
[high-pitched ringing]
Hey, you got your powers back.
Yup.
You Ortechos know what you're doing every once in a while.
Hmm.
Listen, Guerin, I...No.
If anyone's saying sorry, it's me.
I know you love Alex, too.
So that means
we are always on the same side.
We are going to get him back.
That's why I'm here.
Despite what my tantrum might suggest,
I do believe you are the key to unlocking whatever Alex needs.
So do your thing.

SHIVANI: Oh, good.
You're here.
What's this equation?
Something remarkable.
After you left, I got to thinking
about Max's urge for control, and wondered:
what if we altered the protein receptors
to perform some, not all, of their functions?
If we folded the principle alpha helices
and stabilized the covalent bonds
between the amino acids...Hey. Slow down.
How did you come up with this equation?
You're not a scientist.
True, but I am a quick study.
What happened to the mist?
I was cataloguing the equipment for storage

Okay, we have to go to the hospital.

Really. This is a happy accident, like penicillin.
You have created a miracle drug

What do you mean?
Today's been a day of secrets,

[beeping]
[breath trembles]I'd like you to meet someone
very special to me and Allie: our daughter,
Nicole. She suffers

She doesn't have to be.

Earth science is limited, so I looked to the stars.
But it turns out
the solution was right here in Roswell all along.

Rosa seems to be having the time of her life in New York.
Rosalinda is my cousin.
Come on, Liz!
We have opened up to each other all day.
Just imagine the greatness of what we can accomplish
if you simply trust me.
No. What happened with Rosa was a unique circumstance
that cannot be recreated in a lab!
And that mist is for alien physiology.
That will not regenerate human cells.
I know that. But it can help us figure out what will.
You have created something revolutionary.
A compound that boosts brain power beyond limit.
Imagine the discoveries
at our fingertips

tried just a little.
Everything that you have ever wanted,
starting with saving the man that you love.

This is the spot on the map.
There's nothing out here.

MICHAEL: That's Theo's symbol.
Dallas had that yesterday.
His father's glasses were inside.
We got to keep looking around. We're going right.
50 paces. Dallas left behind a page from his dad's Bible.
There were notes in the margins that led him here.

Uh, about that...
I think I could have expressed my anger
a little less Hulk-smash.
Well, you were upset.
I reckon you still are.
And I didn't do you any favors by hiding the truth from you.
Look, I may not know who I am,
but I do know I'm the kind of man
who helps save the love of his brother's life.
To tell you the truth...
I wish I could have punched myself.
I wish.
None of that even matters.
I just care about getting Alex back.
I got your back, brother.
Why am I the only one that can see this?
ROSA: My guess is that your powers help you act
as an anchor between dimensions.
I think Alex is able to use you as a conduit
to communicate by moving things physically in our world
even while he's still in his.
Since when are you a scientist?
[chuckles]: Are you coming for Liz's job? What's going on?
No, just... a hobby I picked up in New York.
Thank you for today.
You helped me see things in a new light.
I'm happy that I was here to help.
You gave yourself up...
...to save me.
Jones locked your memories away.
He thought that you were in Ophiuchus willingly,
and you were a victim of his deceit.
[sniffles, exhales]
What we learned today shows that we were on the same side once.
So be on my side now.
Tezca, what did Jones want you to do here?
What is Clyde looking for?
I don't know what's real anymore.
Please.
[sighs]You must remember something concrete.
He wanted Liz.
Jones said,
once you've gathered all the pieces...
[sniffles] Liz Ortecho will bring the alighting.
♪ I hurt myself
♪ Today
♪ To see
♪ If I still feel
♪ I focus
♪ On the pain...
[clears throat softly]
Is Liz Ortecho working tonight?
She doesn't work here anymore.
What do you want with Liz anyway?
Aren't you a curious creature.
Let me guess.
Liz's sister.
Racist.
She's actually my teacher.
Really?
♪ Everything...
Let me help you heal, Shivani.
What could you possibly say that others haven't?
Medicine,
religion, counseling.
Nothing's worked.
The only way I'll be whole is if I get my Nicole back.
I've carried...
that kind of loss...
and pain for a decade.
You feel like a piece of your heart
is torn out of your chest, right?
Oh, don't you dare try to relate to me while your sister
gallivants through the East Village
with a second chance at life.
If you really empathized,
you would help me.
No. What you're asking for goes against nature.
You're not thinking through the consequences here.
Bringing back my sister came at a painful cost.
Oh, so only the great Liz Ortecho deserves happiness?
Millions die
all over this planet from illnesses you could eradicate
in a heartbeat.
But you won't...
because of ethics?
I am not a god.
Science rebuilds
the work that gods abandon.
It is evolution at work.
Stop denying
your true nature.I have never been more myself.
Then I was wrong about you.
You are nothing more than a broken dream
stuck in a dried-up dairy town.
Go along, and go play house
with your tin-star cowboy.
That's the drugs talking.
Your judgment's clouded.
You aren't thinking straight.
I have never been more clear in my life.
No, Shivani, don't do it.
Even if it was possible to bring her back,
you would lose yourself in the process.
I know you love your daughter.
Do not become a casualty to your grief.
You've been guiding me
to realizing what matters most in this world.
Let me take the reins.
Let me help you.
Give me the canister, Shivani.
♪ And you could have it all...
I would rather lose myself than my daughter.
No.
♪ I will let you down
♪ I would find a way.
