My name is Anna.
Don't be frightened.
We are at peace.
Always.
It is very important
that you don't get involved
with the visitors.
A human is carrying
a visitor baby.
I'm pleased the baby survived.
The mother, however, did not.
- You're a visitor.
- There's others out there like me.
They're called
the Fifth Column.
Evans, I want you to investigate
the Fifth Column.
We have to crush them.
We need more soldiers
an army.
I'll make one.
Anna's V soldier eggs
are about to hatch.
I have a plan.
There is a war at hand.
Let "V" stand for "Victory.
"
(Screams)
You're experiencing
human emotion.
- Do you know what you've done?
- They must pay.
(Gasps)
(Groans)
Ty?
Tyler?
Ty?
Ty!
Ty?
Tyler!
Tyler!
(Whispers) Ty.
Tyler?
Tyler.
Hey.
Hey.
Mom, what is this?
What did you do to us?
(Sizzling)
Tyler? Tyler.
(Crying) Hey.
Hey, no.
No, Ty.
No!
(Sobbing)
Why did you do this?
You killed my children,
so I killed yours.
(Indistinct conversations
in distance)
(Sighs)
(Telephone ringing in distance)
(Indistinct conversations)
All right, this is virtually impossible
in a situation like this.
I just wanna make sure
that if forensics has new data,
that we get it.
Evans, didn't I send you home?
Go get some sleep.
Four days since red sky,
no bottom in sight.
You expect me to go home?
Has anyone cleared a meeting
with Anna?
Negative.
World leaders
continue to reach out,
but her majesty Anna
remains silent.
Guess on her planet
that's a show of power.
Unfortunately, on ours,
silence means guilt.
There's still no proof
the visitors are behind this.
Either way, we need to get up
there, talk to them, find out.
The longer we wait to answer
the humans' questions
about red sky,
the sooner they could reach
an answer on their own.
Even if the humans determine
its composition,
they'll never be able to discern
its true purpose.
Perhaps.
However,
I have been monitoring
the work of their top
environmental scientists.
There is one
a Dr.
Ellis Watts
whose research is approaching
dangerous proximity to the truth.
Eliminate him.
There is another matter
to discuss.
The captains of the 29 ships
were caught off guard
by the sudden release
of red sky.
They're concerned
that you yourself
have been affected by human emotion,
that you're losing control,
your ability
to rule effectively.
Do you also feel that
I'm losing control, Marcus?
Of course not, my queen.
Set up a holo-conference with
the captains immediately.
The captains are already en route,
to see you in person.
Notify me when they've arrived.
Yes?
My queen, there's a situation
with the prisoner.
(Door whooshes)
Don't worry.
I'm gonna get you outta here.
I promise.
(Grunts)
You disappoint me, Ryan.
Even after you rebelled
against me, I brought you back.
I offered you everything
a home, I gave you bliss
yet you continue to resist.
I don't want to your bliss.
I just want to see my daughter.
No, you want
to take your daughter.
Away from this prison,
before you kill her,
just like you did her mother.
You've done nothing
but run tests on me.
Who knows
what you're doing to her?
I'm just trying to discover
how your daughter a miracle,
the first hybrid baby
between human and V was born.
She was born out of something you
will never understand
Love.
If it's humans you love so
much, you should be with them.
Take him down to earth.
He's never to return.
Your daughter stays with me.
(Grunts)
(Chad) It's been two months
since the arrival of Anna
and the visitors.
Earth's first contact
with alien life
captured the hope and imagination
of the entire world,
but now a very different tone
Acceptance and gratitude
over such gifts
as healing centers
and blue energy
replaced by anger
and civil unrest.
Reports of rioting
continue to flow in,
and we've now received word
that officials in Washington
are scrambling to mobilize the
military in case of all-out war.
Here on the streets
of Manhattan,
some citizens have begun
stocking up on food,
water, and medical supplies,
dreading that we may be
inching closer to disaster.
As a result of this,
some have sought sanctuary
in houses of worship,
praying for answers of any kind
from either God or Anna.
In response to the rioting
in the streets,
some citizens have begun
stockpiling guns
and ammunition.
As one New Yorker remarked,
"if Anna's bringing Armageddon,
I'm going out fighting.
"
Eyewitnesses report
that the Visitor
Peace Ambassador Center
has become a powder keg
waiting to explode,
as remaining visitors
on the ground,
fearing for their safety,
prepare to board
the last shuttles
back to the mother ship.
It is safe to say
that relations
between visitors and humans
are all but shattered.
And still with no word
from the visitors
and world leaders stymied
by their silence,
the question remains
Is there anyone
who can stand up to Anna?
We've gotta get to Anna.
There's nothing we can do.
At least not through
official channels.
You know what?
You're right.
You're right.
I'm gonna go home.
(Under breath)
Do it on my own.
Ryan Nichols has returned
to earth.
You're questioning
why I released him.
We tested him
and found nothing.
The answers we need
about the hybrid
- lie in the child itself.
- What if he joins Fifth Column?
That's exactly
what I want him to do.
His hatred towards me will drive him
right into the heart of the Fifth Column.
Once there, we can use him
to destroy them from within.
He's rebelled against you
time and again.
What makes you think
you can control him this time?
We have his child.
Four days, and we still have
no clue about red sky.
The only one with answers
is Anna.
It's not like we can just ring
the lizard queen on her cell.
"Hello, Anna.
Fifth Column here.
May we have a word?"
I need to get on that ship.
(Guns ***)
(Door creaks)
(Door slams)
It's me.
Ryan?
Where have you been?
We were worried.
I was up on the ship.
Four days? Doing what,
having a family reunion?
No, I was a prisoner.
A soldier found Val and took her
up to the mother ship.
I did all I could.
I went up there after her.
Ryan, where's Val?
Dead.
I'm sorry.
The baby?
Anna's got her.
I tried to get her out,
get her away
But Anna caught me, and she
threw me off the ship.
Interesting story.
Come on.
He just shows up
out of the blue,
and we're just supposed
to believe him?
If I would have sold you out,
a squad of V soldiers
would have come through
that door right behind me.
So she just let you go?
And now she wants
nothing in return? Yeah?
(Cell phone rings)
(Ring)
(Beep)
Ty.
Mom, I'm at the Peace Ambassador Center.
They're rioting.
Stay put.
I will be right there.
There's a riot
at the Peace Ambassador Center.
Tyler's there.
(Door creaks)
(Whispers indistinctly)
I understand there are questions
amongst you
regarding the release
of the red sky.
I assure you
it was all part of my plan.
And no one
human or visitor
can comprehend the magnitude
of what is coming.
There's also concern that I've
been infected by the human skin.
You have no cause for worry.
I have everything under control.
I'm so appreciative of your trust
Your confidence
Your loyalty.
(Grunts)
(Grunts)
Uhh!
(Thud)
(Whipping, squishing sounds)
(Squish)
(Screeches)
(Panting)
I may wear this skin, but I never
forget what we are beneath.
(Screeches)
(Thud)
(Indistinct shouting)
(Crowd chanting) Save our sky!
Save our sky! Save our sky!
Hey, you, get back!
(Crowd chanting) Save our sky!
Save our sky!
Tyler!
Save our sky! Save our sky!
Mom?
Mom, I was trying to get up
on the ship to see Lisa.
- It was the last shuttle up.
- It's okay.
Just stay with me.
I'm gonna get you out of here, okay?
(Man grunts)
Hey, hey, hey!
Back off.
Back off!
(Grunts)
Ty!
Tyler!
Tyler!
Tyler!
(Grunts)
Hey.
Hey.
Mom, I'm I'm fine.
It's okay.
I
Let me see.
Let me see.
Save our sky! Save our sky!
Okay, look, you're hurt.
I'm gonna get you help.
Excuse me.
Excuse me!
I'm Erica Evans, FBI,
Fifth Column task force.
Anna knows me.
This is my son Tyler.
He needs to get up on the ship.
He needs
immediate medical attention.
Anna will want to know.
She will want to help.
Call her!
It's okay.
It's okay.
It's okay.
(Man) Stay back!
Agent Evans.
I've been authorized to bring
your son up to the mother ship.
No.
He's not going without me.
Save our sky! Save our sky!
Save our sky! Save our sky!
(Thunderclap)
(Thunder rumbling)
(Lightning crashing)
(Police radio chatter)
(Thunder rumbles)
(Rain falling)
(Crowd screaming)
(Thunder booming)
Agent Evans,
we have to go now.
(Engine whirring)
Are you sure
we're gonna be okay, father?
Yes.
Yes.
We're gonna be
Please, take a seat.
Thank you, father.
What are you doing here?
Did you see
what it's like outside?
(Panting)
The sky is bleeding.
I came to pray.
You're not welcome here, Chad,
not after what you've done.
Wait.
What do you want?
Redemption.
(Siren wailing in distance)
(Lowered voice)
I saw something on the ship.
Anna's torturing
the live aboards
with some kind
of needle machine.
They're they're put into it, and
(Sighs)
I helped get them up there.
I promoted
the "live aboard" program.
People thought
the healing centers were safe
because they saw Chad Decker's
aneurysm get healed.
News flash, father
Anna gave me that aneurysm.
People trusted me,
and I used that trust exactly
the way Anna wanted me to.
(Lowered voice) I'm not sure
how I can help you, Chad,
or if I want to.
Father, please.
Give me another chance.
(Whispers) A chance to fight
with the Fifth Column.
You're not just asking
for another chance, Chad.
You're asking for forgiveness.
Only God can offer you that.
(Thunder rumbles)
You want my trust?
Earn it.
(Whirring)
You'll be okay.
Thank you.
(Panting)
Mrs.
Evans, is he all right?
(Whispering) Don't worry, Lisa.
Tyler's gonna be fine.
It looks worse than it is.
I needed an excuse to get up
on the ship to see you.
What is happening?
First the sky turns red, now the rain.
- What the hell is your mother doing?
- I don't know.
We need your help.
Joshua was our most important
ally on the ship.
With him dead
Without someone up here,
the Fifth Column
doesn't stand a chance.
(Whispering) The only one
besides my mother
who might know about
the red sky is Marcus.
See what you can find out.
I'll do my best, Mrs.
Evans.
Thank you.
(Electronic whirring)
(Electronic whooshing)
(Whirs)
Mom, I'm fine.
You could have been
seriously hurt.
We wanted to take all precautions,
leave nothing to chance.
Thank you for letting him
up on the ship.
Every being in the universe
understands a mother's pain
when her child suffers.
You would have done the same
for my children.
I would.
There are other mothers
down there, Anna.
Excuse me?
Have you seen
what's happening down there?
People are panicking, my son took
a blow to the head, the sky
(Scoffs) It's raining red.
The whole world needs answers.
Why are you hiding?
I came here to check on
your son, not to be questioned.
Now that I know he's okay
Stop!
Anna
My job is to protect you.
How the hell am I supposed
to do that
if I don't know
what you're doing?
You want to know what red sky is?
I'll show you.
When?
Now.
Please, don't be frightened.
I'm aware of your concerns.
The time for answers has come.
Red sky and red
rain are not to be feared.
Just the opposite.
Like the healing centers
and blue energy
(Speaking Italian)
(Speaking mandarin)
That is why I was forced
to wait until I had proof,
to show you what it truly is.
Red sky is a gift to mankind,
a gift of a new beginning.
Red sky will heal your oceans,
make fertile your barren lands,
and reverse global warming.
It will undo
a century of damage
and give earth a new beginning.
(Cheers and applause)
We came in peace,
and you welcomed us.
We will not betray you.
We are of peace
Always.
I hope your concerns
have been addressed.
They have, Anna.
Thank you.
Mom, don't you think you should,
uh, apologize to Anna?
No apology necessary, Erica.
You've been a good friend to me.
Good-bye.
Bye.
Uh, we should go.
Actually, uh, I think I'm gonna
stay up here for a bit.
Me and Lisa haven't seen
each other in a while, so
Don't worry, Erica.
Next to my daughter, Tyler's
the most important thing to me.
I'll keep my eye on him.
Okay.
Have fun.
Good-bye, Mrs.
Evans.
(Whispers) A scientist
Dr.
Ellis Watts,
New York State University.
Bye, Lisa.
Good-bye.
Lisa, a moment.
You're to perform your duties
with TylerAll of them.
You haven't seen each other
for four days.
Tyler should know
how happy you are to see him.
Of course, mother.
(Horn honks)
(Siren wailing,
man shouting indistinctly)
Well, that was one hell
of a show Anna put on.
Yeah, she's covering up
something big.
Dr.
Watts' office is inside.
He may know what it is.
Well, we better be careful,
because if this guy's on Anna's radar,
we never know
what we could be walking into.
Yeah.
You stay outside,
watch our backs,
let us know if a tail shows up?
Yeah.
Okay.
Can I help you?
We're looking for Dr.
Watts.
- Uh, sorry.
He's not here.
- Do you know where he is?
Skies turned blue.
I'd check the putting green.
I'm his associate,
Dr.
Sidney Miller.
Is there anything
I could help you with?
Erica.
It's a tracker.
He reports us back to Anna,
it's all over with.
(Erica) Move!
(Grunts)
(Grunts)
(Women scream)
Oh!
(Gun ***)
(Grunts)
(Grunting)
(Grunting)
(Screeching)
Whoa! Whoa! Ease up!
- Get off me, Hobbes!
- Ryan.
What happened?
Somebody's got anger issues.
(Sizzles)
What the hell was that?
That did not just happen.
That was a visitor.
He's after your boss, Dr.
Watts.
I thought the V's were of peace.
That's what they want you
to think.
If that thing would have
gotten to your boss,
there'd be nothing left
but pieces.
That that thing,
that visitor
I don't think it was
after Dr.
Watts.
I think it was after me.
We need to take this inside.
Come on.
Why do you think the visitors
are after you and not Dr.
Watts?
I think it's just easier
if I show you.
Um, a few years ago, I was
on a research dig in New Mexico.
Found a mass grave site
a crater loaded with bodies.
Really creepy.
Based on carbon dating, this site was
at least 50 years old.
All the bones I found were human
(Beeps)
Except for these.
(Door whooshes)
I named him Alpha.
Yeah, it's one of us.
Wow, that's crazy.
So that's you underneath?
- I mean, is this a suit of some kind?
- No.
The skin's organic.
It's real, just like yours.
The V's used the human D.
N.
A.
to replicate it,
so there's no suspicion.
Okay, enough about this visitor.
Let's talk about that one.
Sure.
I ran every test on him
D.
N.
A.
, carbon dating.
Everything I tried,
it all came back inconclusive.
I mean, my only theory was
that it came from
Does anybody else know about
Alpha or about this place?
Nobody.
This is my private lab.
(Whispers) Oh.
All of this research.
(Normal voice) All of this
information about the visitors.
We need him.
Whoa, what?
What do you mean, need me?
Need me for what?
- For the war.
- Against the visitors.
Everything that has happened
since their arrival
has been plotted.
The healing centers,
the blue energy
It is all part of their plan
against us.
Red sky is not Anna's latest
gift.
It is her latest weapon.
And we do need you.
We need your help
to figure out the truth.
- Look, I'm not a soldier.
- I know.
We don't need your fists.
We need your brain.
And if you say "no,"
we'll kill you.
Ah, relax.
I'm kidding.
(Chuckles)
Maybe.
Like it or not, you're one of us now.
(Bell tolling)
What is it, Chad?
Proof you can trust me.
You need to show this to
the people you're working with.
(Click)
It first happened a few days
after I arrived.
(Chad) On on "live aboard"?
(Woman) Yes.
I was excited at first
We all were.
But then the nightmares began.
They were terrible.
I know they were just dreams,
but they felt so real.
I couldn't move.
There, uh
There were lights and needles.
Hundreds of needles
all over my body.
I've interviewed nearly
each of them experienced
the very same nightmare
Every story exactly the same.
All of them live aboards.
That's the machine
that I saw, father.
That's what the V's are doing
to the live aboards,
to innocent people, our people,
and I'm gonna stop it.
How?
I'm gonna broadcast this tape.
I have to do something.
What else am I supposed to do?
Use this, father.
Use me in your fight.
I really missed you.
Me, too.
My mother wouldn't let me
contact anyone.
I know.
I was just worried.
I thought that maybe you didn't
want to be with me anymore.
(Whoosh)
Lisa has performed well.
She'll make an excellent queen
One day.
Where are we
with the next step of the plan?
Everything is back on track.
But there is one matter
we need to discuss.
The soldiers
Your children who survived
the Fifth Column bombing
Their condition has taken
a turn.
You need to see them.
Soon the levels
of phosphorous in humans
will be substantial enough.
Red sky may be gone,
but its impact will endure.
Anna's a lizard?
That sucks.
She's so hot.
Sorry.
I joke when I'm nervous.
Sid, I want to get back
to why the visitors went after
Dr.
Watts and not you.
- Did he know about Alpha?
- No.
No one does.
I mean, if I showed
this kind of thing to Watts,
he'd either steal it
or laugh me out of the room.
So why was Watts on their radar?
I don't know.
The compound.
From my tests, I discovered
a compound within Alpha.
I couldn't identify it.
And then, when red sky happened,
that same compound
showed up in it.
I had to use a computer
in Watts' lab
to complete the analysis,
so I logged on using his I.
D.
That's why the visitors
thought it was Watts.
Yeah.
They must have thought
it was his work,
but he didn't know what it was.
No one does.
Show us everything that you have
on the red sky compound.
Yeah, sure.
(Beeps)
Beats me what the hell it is.
I just know it's not from earth.
(Whirring)
You're right.
It's not.
That compound is
a form of phosphorous
A high concentrate only found
on our home planet.
Why phosphorous?
The V's need phosphorous
to reproduce.
It forms a protective shell
around our eggs.
Val needed it to
To carry our baby.
Anna dumps red rain on us,
and now it's in everything
the soil, the air we breathe,
the water we drink.
They're changing our planet.
They're changing us,
our bodies.
Why would the visitors want elevated
levels of phosphorous inside humans?
For breeding.
So first they want to invade
us, then they want to *** us?
Erica?
What's wrong?
When I was pregnant with my son,
I had preeclampsia.
My doctor ran some tests,
and she found something
that she had never seen before.
I had abnormally high amounts
of phosphorous in my blood.
Ryan, you said that phosphorous
allows the visitors to breed.
And Alpha is proof
that the visitors have been here
for longer than we knew.
- So you don't really think that
- What are you suggesting?
Is it possible that the visitors
experimented on me
when I was pregnant?
I don't know.
Well, how could you find out?
I'd have to run
some blood tests.
.
On you and your son.
Do it.
You wanted to see me, mother?
Your work with Tyler was very
Convincing.
It is key now more than ever
that you maintain your control
over him.
I understand.
Tyler is essential
to our future.
No one must interfere
Neither human nor visitor.
Visitor?
There are traitors among us,
but soon they won't be a problem.
Our medical technicians
have revived Joshua.
The traitor will finally
be able to talk.
The pain was horrible,
like nothing
I'd ever felt before.
The needles
They just dug in, piercing.
(Key clicks) Chad Decker interviewed
nearly 20 live aboards.
Every one of 'em says
the same thing.
My God, the live aboards
The V's are experimenting on them?
Yeah.
Chad wants to go public,
expose Anna to the world.
He wants to join the fight.
Well, the best thing he can do
is preserve his access to Anna.
He is closer to her
than any human.
We can use him.
Yeah, well, I don't think
he's gonna do that.
He's terrified of her.
What if it backfires?
That I don't know.
It's a risk
I'm willing to take.
My daughter is up there.
Ryan, we will do
whatever it takes
to find your daughter
and to bring her back.
I swear.
I gotta go.
- Can you let me out?
- Yeah.
I'm worried about him, Erica.
We can trust Ryan.
Yeah, I know,
but ask yourself this
What would you be willing to do
for Tyler if Anna had him?
At some point, Ryan's
gonna have to make a choice
His daughter or us.
(Whispers) Joshua.
Oh, you're alive.
I was afraid
(Normal voice) I don't know
if I can do this without you.
Do what?
Lisa, this behavior isn't
befitting a future queen.
Joshua, do you remember
anything that happened to you?
That you were shot?
Any of it?
No.
I remember nothing.
(Siren wailing)
(Indistinct conversations)
More popular every day, father.
You talk to the Fifth Column?
You can't broadcast
that report, Chad.
So I'm supposed to do what,
sit back and do nothing while
more innocent people get hurt?
- I have to expose them.
- Yeah, and then what?
Those mother ships can overpower
our military in the blink of an eye.
We need to be strategic.
When we throw our first punch,
it needs to be a knockout blow.
Okay, so then you tell me
how I can help take Anna down.
By keeping your relationship
with her.
(Chuckles)
I can't do that, not after
knowing what I know now.
You have access to Anna
and the ship.
None of us do.
We need you up there.
As a spy?
As a member
of the Fifth Column.
This is what you wanted.
Are you ready?
(Moans)
Of the 12 soldiers that survived
the bombing, only 6 remain.
Their core temperatures
are stabilized,
but the trauma they sustained
was great.
They'll live, but they will be flawed.
These soldiers, my children,
caused my prior
outburst of emotion.
Never again.
(Electronic whirring)
(Soft screeching)
(Electronic whirring)
(Beeps)

(Liquid trickles)
(Electronic whirring)
Hello, mother.
