Narrato r: Previously on v:

I have a message from Diana.
She's alive.

I need to know that you trust me
as leader of the fifth column.

We 're ready to follow you.

You betrayed your friends.
I can never forgive you.

I have a daughter of my own.

- Her name's Amy.
- Joshua: The hybrid survived.

Look at you.

- Lisa: Do you remember anything?
- I remember nothing.

I sense a weakness in Lisa.

Whatever she says or does,
report to me.

- How are you holding up?
- Trying to stay tough.

- I know the feeling.
- What's our next move?

We stay on the offensive
until we've won.

This is concordia. The humans think
they're building their future.

They're digging their graves.

For too long, we, the visitors,
have been the sole beneficiaries...

Of our scientific advances.

Advances that upon our arrival,
I promised we would share.

And so today,
it is a momentous occasion...

As the next phase of construction...

Of concordia sites
around the globe will begin.

Fulfilling our promise for a more peaceful
and prosperous tomorrow.

Heavy rain has not dampened
the excitement here...

Where visitor high commander Anna
has thrown a ceremonial virtual switch...

To turn on the planet's
first blue energy reactor.

One of 538 around the world.

Well, one question
comes to mind, Chad:

Are we completely nuts?

Have scientists examined blue energy?

For all we know, it could give off
radiation that turns us into zombies.

That's a little dramatic,
don't you think, kerry?

It's what we don't know that's the point
of concordia.

Giving the visitors an opportunity...

To share their vast knowledge
with mankind.

So Anna's opened a candy store
and the candy's free, huh?

Well, I for one say,
be careful what you eat.

Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.

Now that the blue energy reactors
are functional...

Construction of concordia sites
around the globe can begin.

Once they are completed...

The landing sites
for our breeding ships will be ready.

And then the annihilation of humanity
can begin.

Man: Thank you.
Woman: Thank you so much.

Tyler:

I like your haircut.

I've missed you.

Yeah, you know, I've been kind of busy
with, uh, pilot training and everything.

I brought something for you.

It was your dad's.

And he really loved it, and I know
that he would want you to have it.

Do you wanna see if it fits?

Oh, it's perfect.

Mom, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to blame you
for everything that happened with dad.

I'm so sorry.

Thomas: It's time.

Do you wanna come for dinner?

- Thanks, mom.
- Okay.

Marcus. Thank you for coming.

Lisa told me you were alive, I...

- Everyone thought you were...
- Dead.

I don't understand.
Why did Anna do this?

Human emotion.

Lisa has told me everything.

I know that Anna has been inflicted.

She released red sky prematurely.
In a moment of rage.

An isolated incident.

Anna has exhibited no further signs.

Are you sure?

Fifteen years ago,
when I decided to abandon our mission...

Anna disagreed.

Her first emotion, pride,
caused her to betray me.

Under her leadership,
our enemies have grown stronger.

You almost lost your life
to the fifth column.

Didn't you?

What is your purpose for seeing me?

Your loyalty.

To our species.

Which is exactly why I must report
to my queen that we have spoken.

I am your queen, Marcus.

The human soul can never be removed.

It is a fool's errand.

And my daughter's pride
has made her the fool.

She will doom our species
if she continues along this path.

What's the emergency, sid?

Concordia. Come here, check this out.

This is model of the site.

Each one's gonna have a blue energy
reactor right smack in the middle.

- Erica: Get to the point.
- The reactor's too big, way too big.

We know whatever the visitors' plan
to use concordia for, it ain't good.

It doesn't take a genius
to figure that out.

No, but it does to figure out this.

The holo device from Malik's safe.

Yeah. It's powered by a tiny
blue energy cell.

Makes sense. Everything the v's have
is powered by it.

Sid: Getting to my point.

The amount of power needed
to run this...

Is in the range of half a watt.

Based on my projections...

The amount of power
that concordia reactors would create...

Is nearly a trillion times more.

If I'm right, these reactors could easily
power an entire city.

What would they need that much for?

There's only one thing I can think of.

Their ships.

Exactly.

The shape of the complex is roughly
the same as the mother ships.

If I'm right...

- They're building landing sites.
- Yeah, but for what?

For their invasion.

There are 538 concordia sites
being built around the world.

But there are only 29 mother ships.

Yeah, do the math. More on the way.

- If those ships land...
- They won't.

What are we gonna do?
Blow up all 500 sites? Not bloody likely.

No. We don't have to destroy them.

We just have to stop them
from being built.

How? Construction's already undennay
around the world.

Remember three mile island?

A nuclear power plant,
it almost melted down.

It scared the hell out of everybody.

But there was not a single new plant
approved for almost 30 years after it.

What does this have to do
with concordia?

Blue energy.

We sabotage the reactor at the New York
concordia site.

We make it seem unstable.

- Dangerous.
- People would get scared.

Public outcry,
the program grinds to a halt.

- Yeah.
- It's on the subtle side for me.

But I like it.

What do you think?

Maybe if I get my hands on more
blue energy to study, I don't know.

We'll get it for you.
I'm sure Lisa can help.

Jack, contact fierro, see if he can get us
into the concordia site.

We need to get into that reactor,
destroy it...

Before Anna drops 500 ships
on our heads.

Welcome back, Marcus.

My congratulations on your successful
launch of concordia.

Despite the most recent
fifth column attacks...

We've overcome most of our obstacles.

Except one.

Controlling human emotion.

Tyler has reached back out
to his mother.

The injection of the human DNA
has triggered...

An unforeseen emotional
response in him.

All of your plans rest on eliminating
human emotion.

Unless we do so, a new generation
of visitors will be born with them.

I do not believe
I will solve the problem...

By the time we're ready to begin
interbreeding.

Then we must find another way
to control humans.

Amy is a hybrid
of human and visitor DNA.

The visitor in her accepts my bliss.
But the human side does not reject it.

Begin tests on the child
to determine why this is true.

The tests are intrusive.
They could harm her.

We are running out of time.

We must find a way at any cost.

Begin testing immediately.

Hobbes:
You sure Lisa's gonna show?

Erica: She'll be here.

So are we gonna talk about last night?

Well, from what I remember, it was
a hell of a lot more fun than talking.

It was.

Look, everything that's happened...

Losing Tyler, Joe...

Look, I needed a break.

Is that what this was? A break?

I can't lose focus on the bigger picture.
This war.

Here.

Blue energy.
I was able to sneak it off the ship.

Anyone see you?

No, but I need to return it.

If someone discovers it's missing,
it gets traced back to me.

We'll get it back to you
as quickly as we can. Thank you.

Why did you need it?

We're gonna sabotage the blue energy
reactor at the concordia site.

We think that your mother
is going to use it to stage her invasion.

When? How? We don't know.
But we know we need to stop her.

That's why you have to find out
anything you can about it.

Okay?

Joshua:
I analyzed Amy's brainwave forms.

When you bliss the hybrid, her v brain
accepts the bliss at a frequency...

That isn't rejected
by her human side.

How is this possible?

I checked our surveillance records.
Ryan Nichols stole phosphorus...

From Anna's private supply.

If he gave it to the mother, the child's
abilities could have been heightened.

If this is true,
what else is she capable of?

I won't know until I can run further tests.

So there's a form of bliss that will work
on humans?

Theoretically, yes.
But my findings are still rudimentary.

Blissing humans was tried
by your mother and abandoned.

It nearly killed her.

My mother was weak.

You're gonna be just fine. It's okay.

Don't worry. I'm gonna soothe you.

There are too many unknowns.

The risks are too great.

Joshua: Current circumstances
demand bold action, Marcus.

- Would you see our plans for earth fail?
- I would see to Anna's safety first.

Enough.

Everything rests on being able
to control the humans.

If I can control them through bliss,
I can stop any resistance.

- Stop, stop.
- Wait. Look.

- The subject appears to be blissed.
- We must be sure.

If you take this, it will kill you.
Do you understand?

Swallow it.

Joshua, does this mean I can bliss
a large number of humans?

At this point, I can't be sure.

Blissing one human nearly killed you.

Are you sure this is wise?

Nothing will stand in my path.

Find a way.

Did you get it working?

Turns out blue energy is
a particle/anti-particle construct.

Once I understood
the coupling constant...

Sidney, my Patience is growing
dangerously low.

Right. Uh, you want it in terms
a merc can understand.

You ever stuck a fork
into an electrical socket?

Same idea. Meltdown.

And it won't look like sabotage?

Sid: Blue energy gone wild.

- Sid, you did it. Good work.
- Yeah.

We're all set. There's a guard at the
security gate and another on the inside.

Both fifth column and they're waiting
for your instructions.

Tell them we're good to go.
Tonight.

You must be careful how often you visit.

You never know who is watching.

I need to talk to you.

I need to know
what my mother's plans are.

Not yet. In due time.

No. Now.

The more I get to know you...

The more I see
you're just like my mother.

All you do is keep secrets.

Tell me.

Concordia.

Landing sites for an invasion,
aren't they?

Very good. You know more
than you let on.

- My friends figured it out.
- Fiends?

- Humans.
- How?

All I know is they asked for a sample
of blue energy and I gave it to them.

What are they planning?

To sabotage the reactor
at the concordia site.

Make it look unsafe so the humans turn
against concordia.

You must stop them.

Why?

Blue energy has two forms.

In its stable form it powers reactors.

But it can also be weaponized.

You must stop them before it's too late.

Look, sid, just focus on the job.
Just the job.

Keep running it over in your head.

Sid: Okay.

This is our fifth column contact
at the gate.

Remember his face.

He's going to make sure that you get
through security undetected.

The v's issued these ID's to the workers.
This one will get you inside the gate.

The trick isn't getting inside,
it's making sure no one sees you...

Enter the reactor building.

A second contact will meet you,
get you in, and then stand guard.

Once you're in, you're on your own,
cowboy.

I wouldn't let you do this
if I didn't think you could.

Okay? This has to look
like an accident.

Fifth column cannot be behind it.

Lisa, what's going on?

When Diana helped you escape,
you said you'd return the favor.

Okay, what is it?

I stole blue energy from the ship.

Erica and her team are using it...

To sabotage the reactor
and I can't reach her.

-You have to stop them. —why?

Because if they weaponize it...

It could destroy everything
within 100 square miles.

All right, go ahead.

Hobbes: Bloody hell.

We got a problem.

Ryan. What's he doing here?

Not waiting around to find out.

Shh, shh, shh. It's okay. Follow me.

Come on.

Ryan: Stop!

Ryan?

You have to stop what you're doing, sid.
Right now. All right? All right?

Don't do it, sid.
Just put that down, okay?

You're about to cause a huge explosion.

- That explosion's gonna kill us all.
- How do you expect me to trust you?

You know there's two forms
of blue energy.

There's inert and weaponized.

Are you sure,
I mean absolutely, 100% sure...

That you didn't weaponize that?

You have no idea what you just did.

- Back off, Ryan! You do it, sid?
- Sid: Yeah, it'll blow up.

- We need to get out of here.
- Not until we take care of some business.

Wait a minute. I came here to save you.

You have three seconds
to make us believe you.

- We need to deactivate this reactor.
- We can't trust him!

There's gonna be
an enormous explosion...

Killing tens of thousands of people.

Don't trust me, how about Lisa?
How do you think I found you?

She sent me here to warn you!

- Sid! Can you stop it?
- I don't know how. I don't know.

- I think I can shut this down.
- You can't trust him, Erica. Come on!

What if Lisa did send him?
Tens of thousands dead.

Can you live with that
if you're wrong, Erica?

Shut it down!

You got to let the energy vent.

You got to dump it, something like that.
I don't know.

Come on, Ryan!

- I got it. Just bypass controls.
- All right, then do it.

The electrical grid has failed
throughout the city.

How?

Our scientists traced the failure
originating from New York concordia.

The humans believe
it was a failure of their own...

But the surge was not an accident.

The only way this could have happened...

Is if blue energy was used
to sabotage the reactors.

Fifth column.

The blue energy would have come
from one of our ships.

Check the inventory immediately.

Marcus, use the blue energy reactors
at the New York concordia site...

To restore power
to the human electrical grid.

We must use this inconvenience
as a demonstration of our benevolence.

Hours after New York City
was plunged into darkness...

Utility companies are blaming
the blackout on the failure...

Of several high-voltage
transmission lines in upstate New York.

Luckily, Anna and the visitors
wasted no time...

Using their blue energy reactor
at the concordia site...

To turn power back on across
the affected areas within minutes.

After witnessing how quickly
blue energy restored power...

World leaders are urging contractors
to speed up construction...

On concordia sites around the globe.

Erica...

That is exactly why
we should have blown the site.

The risks were too great.

No, that is exactly it.

We are not taking enough risks.

We handed her another victow.

We handed it to her.
If we had blown the site...

If we had taken out concordia...

We would have put a dent
in her plans for once.

I think you're forgetting the fact
that we all would have died also.

There is a difference between
a calculated risk and senseless slaughter.

Erica, wait.

Look, maybe Jack's right.

Eli chose you to lead us
because you care about the people...

About the innocents. Not this.

Back there,
you were pushing me to let it blow.

Yeah, I was, but you're not me.

You said that you were a soldier
and you would follow my orders.

Yeah, I did.

I'll let you know what our next move is.

Hours after New York City
was plunged into darkness...

I'm concerned that your colleague
kerry's growing influence...

Will threaten the spirit of unity
between humans and visitors.

Kerry is nothing more
than a small dog barking at our heel.

She's hardly a threat.

A small dog with a loud bark.

You saying you'd like me to muzzle her?

Concordia is my greatest gift
to humanity.

It would be a terrible tragedy
for everyone...

If she were to get in the way.

I'm sure you agree.

Of course.

It's time for you to decide
which side you're really on.

I gave Erica the blue energy grenade.

You have to warn
the other fifth column on the ground.

Lisa. Come quickly. Thomas is coming.

Why did you do that, Joshua?
Why didn't you let him catch me?

- Because I remembered.
- Remembered what?

That I'm fifth column like you.

Woman: One minute.

I'm telling you, Chad. In my gut,
this blackout, it stinks of Anna.

I think you might be right.

What are you talking about?

I got a call from a source of mine
at the department of energy.

It turns out the blackout was caused...

By the blue energy reactor
at the concordia site.

It melted down or blew out.
Something technical.

- They lost control of it.
- Woman: Thirty seconds.

Why aren't you reporting this?

Anna.

She's the only reason
I have a career right now.

Can't kill the goose
that lays the golden eggs.

You, on the other hand, have a chance
to make a name for yourself.

- I don't know...
- This is a career-maker, kerry.

Someone else is gonna break this stow,
why shouldn't it be you?

Woman:
And we're live in five, four...

I have just received exclusive word
that tonight's blackout...

Was not caused by an electrical
grid problem, as reported earlier.

In fact, it was caused
by the near-catastrophic failure...

Of the blue energy reactor
at New York's concordia site.

Tyler. I was told you wanted to see me.

Everything up here's been great.

And I can't tell you how much
I appreciate...

Everything that you've done for me.

What is it, Tyler?

Ever since my dad died,
I've been acting wrong.

Lashing out at the people I love.

I talked with my mom, and I've decided
I just want to spend more time with her.

Of course.

It's been a painful time for you.

Before you leave, I'd like to give you
something to help you with your pain.

A gift usually reserved for visitors.

- Okay.
- Come, sit.

What is it?

Peace.

What's the matter, Lisa?

I saw my mother bliss Tyler.

If Anna can bliss humans,
they will stand no chance against her.

Your human friends,
you said that you can trust them.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

Good, because we are going
to need their help too.

You must act now.

What are we going to do?

We must end your mother's reign,
once and for all.

Ty, just come in.

- What?
- Tyler's not coming.

He's with my mother.

There's this connection a v queen
makes with her subjects.

It's called bliss.

Ryan told me. It's like mind control.
What does that have to do with Ty?

We didn't think it could work on humans.

My mother blissed Tyler.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Evans.

- Is he okay?
- He'll be all right.

There are no lasting effects. But...

If Anna can bliss humans...

That's it.

- We've lost.
- No.

There's still a way we can win.

If you're willing to take a risk.

You asked to see me, my queen?

My queen egg is growing rapidly.

The acceleration protocol has worked
even faster than I anticipated.

It should reach maturity within days.

And Lisa? Have you had any opportunity
to further test her loyalty?

I have seen no signs to indicate
that she is of any risk to you.

Good. But if Lisa fails me...

Thanks to you,
this queen egg will save us.

You set me up.

I called the department of energy.
The source you named doesn't exist.

I went on air with a false story.

You made it all up,
and you let me tell the world.

You can't prove that.

They're firing me.

Did Anna put you up to this?

Is this to protect your precious v's?

No. I did it to protect me.

You're good at what you do, kerry.
Maybe a little too good.

Prime focus as a one-man show just...

It just suits me better.

When I first got this job,
everyone told me to watch my back.

That all Chad Decker cared about
was himself.

I should've listened.

You really are the shallow, self-absorbed
snake that everyone says you are.

This better be good, egghead.

- You're gonna want to see this.
- Infrared binoculars?

Recalibrated to recognize
blue energy's spectral signature.

Take a gander at the mother ship.

- See the big blue splotch?
- Yeah.

That's the blue energy signature
of the ship.

Now look over there.

That can't be right.

Let me see.

What the hell are they?

Mother ships. Invisible to telescopes...

- Radar, any human technology.
- How many?

How many concordia sites
are there around the world?

Five hundred and thirty eight.

Their invasion ships aren't on their way.

They're already here.

- Are you okay, mommy?
- I'm fine.

What are you doing?

I'm making you feel better,
just like you make me feel better.

That is something very special
that only I can do.

Why would you think to do that?

Because I love you.

No. I brought him. And her.

- Why is that traitor here, Erica?
- If we're going to defeat Anna...

- We need to take risks.
- Not stupid risks.

He saved our lives. I don't like him.

I don't forgive him. But we need him.

Yeah, for what?

Every attempt we have made
to take down Anna has failed.

We are surrounded by an invasion fleet.

We are out of options.

We don't stand a chance in hell
of stopping Anna without help.

This is help.

Lisa.

This is my grandmother, Diana.

Diana:
I was queen before Anna overthrew me.

Diana is going to help us make sure
that history repeats itself.

We're going to overthrow Anna.
