All language subtitles for V.2009.S02E07

Narrator: Previously on v:

How many times have I warned you
your hatred would cost you your faith?

The hostage has now been
identified as Erica Evans.

I have no illusions
I'm gonna walk out of here alive.

- You and fierro must.
- You want me to leave?

- Prove me right about you, Erica.
- You betrayed your friends.

I can never forgive you.

I have an assignment for you. Bring this
within 100 yards of Eli cohn's building.

If you had stopped the fifth column,
then maybe dad would be alive!

Tyler.

I can't tell you how sorry I am
about your father's death.

Thomas tells me you've adapted nicely
to life on the mother ship.

You've embraced
the pilot training program.

Yes. Everything's been great up here.
Thank you.

Before one can begin
deep-space flight...

All pilots must take one
final physical examination.

A formality, of course.

It all starts here.

The examination will assess Tyler's DNA
to assure he's medically ready.

Have Joshua report back
with the results.

- Yes, my queen.
- Finally, everything's falling into place.

Eli cohn and fifth column
have been obliterated.

Marcus will recover from his injuries.

And concordia moves fonnard.

Landing sites for breeding ships
can begin construction.

And with Tyler aboard, we can
begin the next phase of interbreeding.

I'm surprised you didn't bring
a hatbox.

Heh. Don't worry, I won't crowd
your closet space.

I'll leave plenty of room for all your
cool black t-shirts.

- Yeah.
- Look, Hobbes...

Thanks for the offer
to let me stay here.

It's only temporary
until I can find a place.

Twelve years in the church,
my whole life fits into two duffel bags.

What's the over-under on you killing
each other within the week?

Erica, I've been trying to reach you.

- You okay?
- I'm fine. Thanks.

Have you talked to Tyler?

Not since Joe's funeral.

He's on the ship.
Won't return my calls.

I don't wanna talk about it. I'm sorry.

Who the hell's that?

That is fierro. Eli's man.
I asked him to meet us here.

You gave him my address?

We need to trust this guy.

He's our only conduit in the army
we need to take Anna down.

You are still on bereavement leave.
Are you ready to jump back into this?

Anna wants a war?
I'm gonna give her one. Let him in.

John fierro, this is Kyle Hobbes,
Jack Landry. My top lieutenants.

Good to meet you.

Well, I walked through fire with Eli.

If he trusted you, so do I.

I'm glad to hear it.

Because I'm ready to assume leadership
of the fifth column as Eli requested.

There's a group
of trusted lieutenants...

From around the world.
Eli relied on them.

In the wake of his death,
they're gathering in Bangkok.

You need to be there.

Fake ids have gotten me in and out
of the east a time or two.

Erica:
I guess we're going to Bangkok.

How do we get started?

Vitals are excellent, but his phosphorus
levels are not as high as they need to be.

Red rain should have infused him
with phosphorus for interbreeding.

Every human's biology is unique.

Tyler's body appears to be rejecting
the surge of phosphorus.

Administer a concentrated dose to him.

I cannot guarantee Tyler will absorb
enough to make him viable.

We may have to alter our plans.

Have the backup candidates
been tested?

Rafael, a young man from Barcelona.

He is our most promising.

Arrange for Rafael to visit with Lisa.

What if she rejects him?

Lisa will breed with whomever
I tell her to.

Tyler, you're gonna be a great pilot.

Really? I passed my physical?

In fact, Thomas says you're
ready for your first overnight flight.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Go get ready.
Tyler, I'm counting on you.

It'll be easier to explore Rafael's
potential with him out of the way.

Administer phosphorus injection
to Tyler. See how he responds.

And if his levels remain low?

Then unfortunately for him...

He is no longer of use to us.

We respected Eli.

But his decision to hand over leadership
was unilateral and unnecessary.

We already have many plans
in motion, agent Evans.

Including a strike
to avenge Eli's death.

The suicide bombings, the attacks
against innocent humans...

You're throwing pebbles at a giant.

- I told you this was a waste of time.
- Stop.

If we are going to defeat the v's,
we need to change tactics.

Eli died at the hands of the visitors
because his plan didn't work.

We are going to bring this war
to Anna.

I have contacts on her ship.

Access that you don't have,
that you will never have.

Eli chose her to lead.

We owe it to him
to give her a chance.

Present us with a plan. If not,
leadership will pass to someone...

Who's already proven their worth.

Tyler's very excited
about the pilot training program.

He leaves on his first overnight trip
tonight.

All of your plans are coming together.

Tyler hasn't spoken to his mother
in over a week.

We are finally becoming his family.

In the meantime,
I have an assignment for you.

While Tyler is away, you will meet
a young man named Rafael.

I want you to entertain him.

What about Tyler?

If he senses my disloyalty to him,
it could upset everything.

My plans for Tyler
are none of your concern.

You will entertain Rafael.

Don't question me again.

Hi. How'd the meeting go?

Eli cohn's lieutenants don't think
I have what it takes to lead them.

We've fought this war
on our own before, Erica.

It's bigger than us now, Jack.

If we're going to defeat Anna,
we need an army to do it.

How do we do that?

We start by asking the big question:
Why are the visitors here?

If we know what Anna wants,
we'll know how to stop her.

Jack: Well, we know
they want us for breeding.

- But we don't know what that means.
- Chad: The live-aboards.

When I interviewed her last week...

She said the next batch to come up
will be the last.

If Anna's stopping live-aboards...

It means she got whatever
she needed. Question is what?

There might be someone
who can help us find out.

Anna's daughter, Lisa. She's a friend.

Anna's daughter
is working against her?

Anna can never find out.

Get to Lisa. Tell her I sent you.

Sid, where are you on the research?

- I reached the scientific community.
- And?

There were cases of boys
with part of their DNA missing.

So far, all the ones
I've found died as infants.

Keep looking. We need to find
everything we can about the other boys.

What did Eli tell you
about his son's death?

Well, he had me investigate it.

So I started with the doctor
who delivered him, avner nizani.

Were you able to find nizani?

He's dead. But I kept digging,
looked into his practice.

All the babies he delivered 18 years ago,
an unusually high number of them died.

Cause of death was listed as
sudden infant death syndrome.

It's possible those babies died
because their DNA was messed with.

They wouldn't have checked for that.

I found a common link
between the babies who died.

All their mothers suffered
from preeclampsia.

Many of the mothers also were treated
by the same specialist, Dr. Veena rai.

I know her. She treated me.

- I looked everywhere.
- You couldn't find her?

- No. How did you know?
- Fierro: I couldn't either.

But I reached out, I enlisted help
from Eli's contacts around the world.

- Any luck?
- Yeah. There's a cop in Hong Kong.

Thinks he's found Dr. Rai.

If it is rai, she might know what
the visitors did to those boys. And why.

I want to talk to Dr. Rai.

We're going to Hong Kong.

Leave us.

Rafael is en route from Barcelona
as you requested.

According to his file,
his phosphorous levels are ideal.

Joshua, you're one
of my most trusted advisors.

What I'm about to ask you
requires the utmost discretion.

I'm beginning to sense a weakness
in Lisa.

It's possible
she is experiencing human emotions.

What can I do to help, my queen?

Lie to her.

Tell her your memory is returning.

That you recall what it's like
to experience human emotions.

Whatever she says or does...

Report to me directly.

Diana: It's taken a week for you to decide
you can trust me?

I would have come sooner,
but my mother watches my every move.

You're under a great deal of pressure
as future queen.

What's troubling you, my dear?

A while ago, my mother instructed
me to get close to a boy named Tyler.

Now she's ordered
I get close to someone else.

Why would she do that?

Another boy?
Anna must be changing her plans.

You care for this boy, Tyler,
don't you?

No. Our species is not
supposed to have human emotion.

Embrace them, Lisa.

I had to learn the hard way.

Emotions can give you power
unlike anything else.

- If my mother ever knew, she'd...
- Throw you down here like she did me.

That's why she can never know
that you have feelings for Tyler.

For any human being.

What about the other boy?

I don't want to be with him.

You shouldn't have to, Lisa.

But you must protect yourself.

You must convince Anna
that you are the loyal...

And obedient daughter
she expects you to be.

Your safety,
and our survival, depend on it.

Lisa.

- Chad Decker, wnt news.
- My mother speaks very highly of you.

I've been meaning to talk to Anna about
doing an exclusive interview with you.

What it's like being
the v first daughter.

It'd be a great piece.

Whatever my mother wants.

Erica Evans says
you might be able to help me.

And why would Mrs. Evans say that?

Because I'm working with her.

I don't know what you mean.

I know the truth, Lisa.

You helped Erica
destroy Anna's soldier eggs.

You want to stop your mother,
just like I do.

What do you want from me?

I know the live-aboards
have been tortured.

You need to help us find out why.

Lives depend on it, Lisa. Please.

Lisa, may I have a word?

Joshua, what are you doing here?

As you know, when I was shot,
my memory was wiped clean.

Lately, some of it
has started to return.

I only remember fragments...

But I do remember being
fifth column.

And feeling human emotion.

These memories seem so real.

I want to talk about them.
And I remember that I once did.

With you.

Obviously you remember wrong.

Of course, my queen.

Forgive me.

Are you kidding? Hong Kong cops
never heard of a donut shop?

Chicken feet are a delicacy.

You've tracked down
someone Eli was looking for.

Is this who you're looking for?

That's her.

Chiang:
She took a long time to find.

She's living under an assumed name
here in Hong Kong.

- Maybe we should pay her a visit.
- Rai lives in a highly secure building.

Police are wired into apartment security.
I can't shut the system down.

I can. Hacking is my specialty.

Well, it's one specialty, anyway.

Chiang:
You'll only have a very short window.

The system does internal checks
every 15 minutes.

Sounds an alarm if anything is amiss.

Just get us in. We need to find out
what rai did to my son.

Hong Kong p.D.
Will never know we were there.

Careful.

We'll go on chiang's signal.

All right. We're in.

- Yeah?
- Chiang: Erica. We've tapped in.

The monitors will go on a loop.

You've got 15 minutes before
the system automatically reboots.

Good to go.

Let's go.

- Who do you think you are?
- Unh!

- I trusted you.
- Who are you?

You treated me. Me and my baby.
Eighteen years ago.

- You were to take care of us.
- Rai: You're making a mistake.

I don't know who you are.

Please...

Get her hands.

She's a v.

Let me be very clear.

I am going to skin you slowly
from neck to tail...

Until you tell me everything
that you did to my son.

And I'm going to keep you alive
so that you feel every cut.

Tell me where your safe is.

- Where? Where?
- Unh.

The bedroom.

- Show me.
- Come on. We gotta move.

It's up there.

Not that one, sweetheart.
The lizard's safe.

Right. What's the combination?

We gotta move.

Okay, I need tools. Power drill,
flashlight, whatever you can find.

Hurry, cops will be here soon.

- Flashlight.
- I've got the drill.

Gonna raise the pressure on the inside
till it's higher than the outside.

Trick is not blowing up
the contents in the process.

Pretty quick to slice and dice
back there, Evans.

- How'd you know rai was a lizard?
- I didn't.

- I like this new you.
- Heh.

- That's very mission: Impossible.
- Detcord.

I never leave home without it.

Good thing.

- Got that flashlight?
- Yeah.

Thank you.

- Here, your hands are smaller.
- Yeah.

- Obviously.
- Keep going, keep going.

- All the way in.
- Yeah, I got it.

Keep going. Like half an inch.
That's good. That's good.

- I'll let you finish.
- I'll take it from here, yeah.

It's a holo device.
We found one in Malik's safe.

It's okay, we've got two minutes.

Thank you.

Just hear me out, okay?

What are you gonna say, Ryan, huh?
You lied to us.

- Betrayed us.
- I never gave your names to Anna.

Your actions killed dozens of people.

- Erica's ex is dead because of you.
- You don't think I know that?

Anna had my baby, Jack.

Okay, I made a mistake,
but there was nothing else I could do.

No, Ryan. You could have told us
the truth.

We didn't even know
you survived the bombing.

I have to get my baby away from Anna.

I need help.

You know, of all the people I thought
you would be the one that understands.

Everybody needs a second chance.

I'm not a priest anymore, Ryan.
It's not my job to absolve you.

Rai visited the same cities
over and over for 19 years.

There's 29 boys here.

In 29 cities.

Each one has a mother ship
parked over them.

They're there because of those boys.

Oh, my god.

Tyler's not the only one.

- If Anna has others...
- That means that Tyler...

My son, is expendable.

We'll figure it out, Erica.

We'll figure it out, we'll stop her.

And we'll keep Tyler safe.

Any idea what these are?

Erica: Prenatal vitamins.

I took those when I was pregnant.

What? Why would a doctor
keep prenatal vitamins in a safe?

They wouldn't. Unless they were
trying to hide something.

What the hell was that?

Welcome back.

I thought you were done
with the priest routine.

Well, it doesn't work like that.
Wherever I walk, he walks.

Try to keep him contained
to your corner, all right?

Why? Are you afraid of what
he's going to find in yours?

So, uh, how'd it go in Hong Kong?

We found prenatal pills with these
freaky metal bugs inside them.

Science boy is taking a look.

Also, seems that Erica's kid
isn't the only one...

That Anna's keeping her eye on.

There are 28 more.

Really?

Erica.

We'll be right there.

Thank you.

Chad Decker.

Lisa: Chad.

I found out why my mother
wanted the live-aboards.

I'm sending you information
that will explain it all.

Sid: Come here, look at this.

They programmed these things
to go after DNA with a y chromosome.

That's why the pregnant mothers
and baby girls weren't affected.

We know what they did, and how
they did it, but we still don't know why.

They created empty space in the DNA
to put something in, but what?

I think I might know.

Lisa came through.

She downloaded
the live-aboards' medical files.

Anna isn't choosing these
live-aboards randomly.

She's inviting people
up to the ship who are exceptional.

Genetically exceptional.

"High fertility. Elevated immunity.

Longevity." and this part:

"Gene extraction complete."

Dates must be
when they put the live-aboards...

- Into the needle machine.
- Stealing DNA from live-aboards?

She's not just stealing any DNA.

She is harvesting the best of the best.

That's awesome.

I mean, definitely not awesome.

But it explains something
that's been driving me crazy.

All right.

This is from Alpha,
the v skeleton I found.

His DNA is a hundred times
more complex than normal DNA.

But then there's this.
This is Malik's DNA.

It's one thousand times
more complex than Alpha's.

- Weird, right?
- Yeah. Okay, so?

The genetic evolution from Alpha
to Malik should have taken 5000 years.

Give it to us in English, Einstein.

This explains why the v's
didn't just annihilate us.

They need us alive.
They're stealing the best of our DNA.

They're using us to fast-track
their own evolution.

Rafael has arrived.
Did you approach Lisa like I asked?

She gave no indication
she has ever felt human emotion.

She could be testing you.

You may be right.

I saw Lisa looking through medical files.

What files?

I don't know.

She does not know that I saw her.

I was told
this is where I could find Lisa.

You must be Rafael.

I didn't know you had arrived.

Yes, a short time ago.

This ship...

It is quite impressive.

You have only seen a small part.

Once I show you the rest...

Y... ou'll never want to leave.

You're very handsome.

I can't do this. I'm sorry.

You have to go.

Why did you send him away?
You directly disobeyed my orders.

I am tired of being told what to do.

I demand you tell me
what your plan is for me.

How dare you talk to me like that?

You want to strike me, don't you?

Yes, I do.

Then what's stopping you?

I didn't mean it.

I'm sorry, mother.

It's your breeding skin...

Fueling the aggression you need
to become queen.

But you're not queen yet.

And until you are,
you will do as I tell you.

The problem with Lisa may be more
serious than I first thought.

We cannot proceed
with interbreeding without Lisa.

There's something
I need to show you.

A queen egg?

I had it preserved.

The last of my clutch.

If Lisa proves disloyal,
she can be replaced.

This egg is my only alternate
to interbreeding.

The very survival of our species
may depend on it.

Can you hatch it safely?

- Yes.
- Then begin the process immediately.

But it will take years for the new queen
to reach maturity.

Our accelerated growth experiments
have not proven successful.

Then run more.

The children from your final clutch
have all matured.

The only option would be...

The hybrid baby.

At birth, she did appear
more visitor than human.

Our skin, our tail, our claws.

Do it.

Such experimentation could result
in the hybrid's death.

Then she'll die serving her queen.

It's possible the visitors have been
doing this all across the universe.

Consuming the best of every life form
they encounter...

To create a superior master species.

- Now they're doing it here on earth.
- And these boys fit in how?

Each of the 29 boys
is missing a part of their DNA.

There's a void. We believe
that the v's plan to fill that void...

With a mixture of genes
they've stolen.

What happens after they insert
the new DNA?

I'll find out.

In just two days,
working with my team...

I have uncovered
a vital part of the v's plan.

Imagine what I could do with an army.

What you've discovered
is most impressive.

What's next?

Before I tell you, I need to know
that you trust me unequivocally...

As leader of the fifth column.

We 're ready to follow you,
agent Evans.

All of us.

Anna is about to welcome the final
group of live-aboards onto the ship.

We suspect that once
she gets their DNA...

She'll have what she needs to move
on to the next part of her plan.

We're going to stop that
from happening.

Tyler is proving to be
quite a capable pilot.

Good. Joshua, check Tyler's
phosphorus levels immediately.

I am hopeful
we can move forward with him.

How did Lisa respond to Rafael?

Not as well as I would have liked.

I convinced him to stay on the ship
for now.

However, Lisa must be dealt with.

Joshua, how are we progressing
with my backup plan?

We've initiated the experimentation
as you requested.

Perhaps you'd like to see
the results for yourself.

The hybrid survived
the aging experiment.

However, there was
an unforeseen side effect.

Her maturation has strengthened
her immune system.

Her body seems to have
healed itself of its chronic pain.

That means we no longer have
leverage over Ryan Nichols.

Where's my daughter?

Look at you.

Mommy.

Welcome back, Ryan.

Eli cohn is dead and the fifth column
have been neutralized as a threat.

As a reward, you get to spend
a few hours with your daughter.

Thank you, my queen.

Excellent work, Joshua.

Ryan's cover has been compromised
within fifth column.

He is no longer of any use to us.

Arrange to have him eliminated.
Quietly.

Oh, man, there is nothing
like that. I mean, nothing.

Tyler.

- I missed you.
- I missed you too.

But I have to take a shower. Thomas is
teaching me how to download my report.

Tyler, you can't keep
running away from me.

What are you talking about?

I know you're holding in
your emotions.

But your father just died.

It's okay to be sad.

To feel.

You don't get it, Lisa.

I don't want to feel anything anymore.

I just want to be a shuttle pilot
and forget about my past.

Lisa: You were right.

I do care about Tyler.

He's the one I want to be with.

I'm no longer sure
he wants to be with me.

I'm sure you will figure it out,
my dear.

I will help you.

I am so grateful that I found you.

You're the only one that understands
what I'm going through.

I learned a long time ago
what you have already seen.

And what your mother refuses
to recognize:

The good in human emotion.

Tyler used to care, he used to feel.

Now I'm no longer sure.

I disobeyed her today.

I couldn't control my emotions.

Now I'm worried she suspects
I've changed.

You're on very dangerous territory,
my dear.

Your mother must suspect nothing.

Trust no one on the ship.
No one but me.

And you must keep my presence
a secret.

I won't tell anyone.

I promise.

I know you are afraid, my dear.

But everything will be okay.

Why are you doing this?

Because your mother never did.

What's this?

I'm all alone up here.

It's so we can always be in touch.

And not risk my mother finding out.
