Good evening.

I'm Howard K. Smith and this
is the state of the war tonight.

On the Philippine
island of Mindanao

Resistance guerrillas under the
leadership of Commander Beloy

surprised and annihilated
a regiment of alien shock

troops moving to
occupy the island.

On the Brazilian front,
Resistance leaders

suffered a grave setback with
the capture and execution of several

high-ranking leaders in
the Matto Grosso battalion.

Here at home, our guerrillas
claimed a major victory

on the ground fighting in the
Sangre de Cristo mountains

between Taos and
Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Casualties were said to be light in
skirmishes along the Santa Fe Trail

as a number of alien outposts
were overrun and destroyed.

And this week, the
Freedom Network

awards its Medal of Valor
to Marilyn McGeorgea

housewife from
Biloxi, Mississippi.

She spotted the visitor patrol
boat Vargan off the Gulf Coast

rammed it with her husband's
fishing boat, sinking both vessels.

Mrs. McGeorge was later found
clinging to debris and was rescued.

And that's where we stand tonight
from the Freedom Network in New York.

Our hopes are with you.

Good night.

Wait until you see this
house. You're gonna love it.

I can't wait.

My mother's going
to meet us there.

Hey, come on. I want
to buy you a present.

- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

Thank you. Your generosity
has been deeply appreciated.

Oh, I have something here.

I've been saving this one all
day for a pretty young girl like you.

Ouch!

Oh, dear. Look what I've done.

- You okay?
- It's just a scratch.

Oh, I'm so sorry.
Please take this one.

- It's mistletoe.
- Oh, thank you.

Okay.

There you go.

Merry Christmas.

Yes.

Merry Christmas.

Attention all patrol vehicles.

Attention all patrol vehicles.

Be on the lookout for a red
van heading toward the border.

Drivers are suspected
Resistance fighters

smuggling orphan children into
Los Angeles from the occupied zone.

Now's our chance.

Let's go.

A few more yards and you'll be
safe. You're gonna be kids again.

- Are you safe now?
- Are you kidding?

With you behind the wheel?

You're sure the blood is
from the Starchild, Elizabeth?

Yes, I am.

And that's the holly
you gave me to use.

Yes, the dioxin veneer has
kept the blood remarkably fresh.

You've been most helpful.

I knew one of
them would find her.

Now you can mold the Starchild
to your own genetic design.

Although I can't say I
understand what all this is about.

Half the world is poison to
us because of the red dust.

Yet Elizabeth, who is half human,
half like us, seems to be immune.

If we can replicate her, perhaps
we can produce an anti-toxin

and finally put
an end to this war.

Excuse me. I've done my part.

- Where's my husband?
- Where he's always been.

Here in detention.

You promised we would be
together again for Christmas dinner.

And you will.

Our Christmas dinner.

Take her away.

You lied!

You said you would
let him come home!

Humans take
holidays so seriously.

What do you mean another van
of children got through the border?

Now why is it that we continue
to let a band of vigilantes

make a mockery of
the laws of this city?

Well, we made a positive
ID on Donovan and Tyler.

Donovan and Tyler?

What a surprise.

- Mr. Bates, I...
- Mr. Chiang!

This is not the way
I like to start my day.

Now, you failed.

Every time you go up against
them, we come out second best.

- Mr. Bates...
- No more excuses!

Now, I want you
to find whatever rot

these so-called heroes are
hiding under and crush them!

- Okay, this is the church.
- Visitors don't respect sanctuary.

It's as good a halfway
house as any other.

Let's look inside.

It's almost too quiet
this close to Christmas.

Well, with Diana picking
their kids up off the street

people don't have
much to celebrate.

Let's check it out.

You're slipping.

If I were a lizard,
you'd be dead.

Think again, big fella.

Ham!

You're right, brother!

What brings you
in from the desert?

The desert unit's
history. We shot all to hell.

Father Turney found me.

Saved my life.

For the last month,
I've been running

an underground
railroad into this place.

You know each other.

You could say that.

Old friends.

We intercepted the van this
morning. All the kids are safe.

We found foster homes
for them in the open city.

Bless you, Michael.

If it weren't for you smuggling
children into the open city

there'd be more tears
than smiles this Christmas.

We do what we can.

When are the rest of
the kids gonna get here?

In the morning.

Michael, it's getting too
dangerous around the church.

The visitors are coming
around more often.

They suspect something.

I'm afraid I'm not gonna
be in business much longer.

- How come you look so grumpy?
- I don't like little girls.

- Tough guy, huh?
- Tough enough.

Maybe. What's your name?

- They call me Ham.
- Ham?

That's a funny name.
Sounds like a sandwich.

We got company.

Jennifer, out the back.

- I want that one.
- You got him.

- You'd better leave with us, Father.
- Thank you, Michael.

But this is where I'm needed.

Don't worry. There's
people who will help me.

Now, leave these, three
gentlemen to me and go with God.

We'll pick up Jennifer and
the other kids tomorrow.

He's got a lot more faith
in his fellow man than I do.

You got that right.

- So, what do you think?
- I love it.

Think we can live here?

You know, sometimes I
pretend there's no war.

And you and I are just...

Just what?

It's just a dream.

Oh, come on. What kind of dream?

When I was little, my mother used
to tell me if you had a special dream

you shouldn't tell anyone or
else it wouldn't come true.

Well, maybe I can
make it come true.

Isn't this a pretty picture?

- Mother.
- Don't say anything.

You're my daughter.
I trusted you.

- Look, look, Robin, I tried to...
- And you.

How could you?

Mother, please.
It's not his fault.

- We just...
- You just snuck around behind my back.

No, wrong. We just fell in love.

It wasn't anything we'd planned.

We didn't do it to spite you.

- It just happened.
- Yeah, I'll bet.

Mother, please.

No, Let her go. She needs...

Just let her go.

That's terrible.

Take a walk.

Yes, he only injured my prize.

- What is that noise?
- Oh, that is our national anthem.

You never should have
interfered with its DNA structure.

- It's growing out of control.
- That's your opinion.

You're dealing in unknowns.

Genetic engineering
is a dangerous game.

- I'm going to have to...
- I don't play games, Dennis.

I'm a scientist. And this little
experiment is under control.

My control.

Anyone who fails to
understand that can be replaced.

Immediately.

Now, what was it
you were going to do?

Help you. Any way I can.

I knew you'd understand.

I know she hates me.

Of course she doesn't
hate you, Elizabeth.

She's just upset.

What should I do?

Well, honey, just talk to her.

Just tell her how you feel.

She won't listen.

Of course she'll
listen to you, Elizabeth.

She's your mother.

What is this?

The lady was selling corsages.
I just perked it on a thorn.

That's really strange. The blood
doesn't seem to be coagulating.

Come here for a second.

I just want to get
a culture of this.

It's not going to hurt a bit.

- It's fine, really.
- Yeah, I know.

Here.

There, see?

I'll run some tests on this
when I get back to the lab.

Absolutely no way, Santa.

Not even if I use
some pillows, boss?

Not even if you use
a whole mattress.

Sorry, Willie.

You mean I don't get to dress
up and give out the pheasants?

Maybe next year.

- What was that?
- It came from the lab.

- The clone!
- It's escaped.

- Who's our best tracker?
- Laird.

Get him! I want it brought back.

Those kids are hurt.

He's dead.

What are you doing
out here alone?

You're hurting me!

Father Trini said she'd
be coming back for us.

Where is he, sweetheart?

This way.

Jennifer, you found
them. Good for you.

I'm glad you're here.

I see the visitors came looking
for the three we mopped up.

Well, they were under the misguided
notion that by destroying the building

they could eradicate
the beliefs that built it.

Look, it's nice to know
that someone still has faith

but there's no point in giving
these lizards a second chance.

He's right.

Well, children, I
think it's time to go.

God helps those
who help themselves.

- Is there something wrong.
- What?

Are you mad at me?

When they took my mommy
and daddy away from me

I don't want to talk
to anybody either.

Come on, Jennifer. Time to go.

Mother?

I knew you'd be here.

You used to bring me here
when I was little, remember?

Why didn't you tell me?

I wanted to, but I was afraid
you wouldn't understand.

I'm your mother.

I confided in you. Why
couldn't you confide in me?

I don't know.

Please don't be mad at me.

Do you really love him?

I think so.

It's so strange.

I'm so excited when
he's around me.

I never felt that way before.

And Kyle feels the same way?

Yes.

I would never see
him again if you thought

that would make
him love you instead.

Elizabeth?

I know he doesn't love me.

I guess I've known
that for a long time.

I'd never do
anything to hurt you.

I know.

But it doesn't make
the pain go away.

Come on. I'll take you back.

We can finish this later.

Does this mean you're
not going to be moving out?

I don't know.

I'd kind of like a
little time to myself.

I've already talked to Julie.

- What is it?
- I'm not sure.

Probably nothing.

Elizabeth?

I don't know.

Feels like someone's...

- Is this your car?
- Yes, it is.

You frightened us.

Park's off limits after
4 p.m. Bates' orders.

I'm sorry. We didn't know.

You do now.

Now move on before
I have to run you in.

Thank you for
being so concerned.

Just doing my job, ladies.

Hey, you!

Hold on!

Hey, hey, don't be afraid.

What's wrong? Got a cold?

Or has a cat got your tongue?

He died of puncture
wounds to the head.

It has to be the clone.

She's had her
first taste of human.

Yes. A policeman.

- Do you know what that means?
- Yes.

She's growing. Getting stronger.
And more like us than one of them.

It means that every policeman in
Los Angeles will be out looking for her.

- And when they find her...
- They won't find her.

You will. And
you will follow her.

And bring her back at all costs.
- And if someone gets in my way?

If you have to ask, then you're
the wrong man for the job.

Dioxin in Elizabeth's blood.

Elizabeth.

Hey, what the
hell are you doing?

Stop that! Get away from there!

What's wrong with you,
lady? You crazy or something?

Okay. All right, just...

Okay.

I took a sample of
Elizabeth's blood.

- I found traces of dioxin in it.
- What is that?

Well, it's a very
powerful poison.

But in this case, maybe it was used
for preserving blood, for keeping it fresh.

- Well, what could that mean?
- I don't know.

But one thing I do
know for sure, Robin

is no flower peddler
would have been using it.

We interrupt this program
to bring you a special report.

Police in Los Angeles this afternoon
have issued an all-points bulletin

and are warning all citizens to
be on the lookout for this woman.

Wanted in connection with
vandalism and assault charges

she's also a prime suspect in
the brutal slaying of a police officer

earlier today in Sherman Oaks.

She is considered
extremely dangerous.

We now return you to
our original programming.

It can't be.

Elizabeth was with me all
day. It must be a mistake.

That's not Elizabeth.

I don't know how Diana did it

but she must have
created Elizabeth's double.

- Where is Elizabeth?
- I don't know.

She said she had some
last-minute shopping to do.

Robin, you've got to find her.

I'm gonna go to the lab and see
what I can find out from Bates, okay?

They were all at
Club Creole, sir.

At least half a dozen are
known Resistance members.

Donovan?

Tyler?

Haven't seen this
one for quite a while.

It is no coincidence, sir.

You may be right.

Did you actually see her
with Donovan and Tyler?

Yes, sir.

Did she seem...

friendly?

I couldn't tell.

She is one of them.

Well, I think it's time
we let her prove it.

Why are you so angry with me?

Get lost.

What's the problem with Ham?

See, it happened
while we were in Nam.

Just before the fall of Saigon.

He had married a
local Eurasian girl.

And they'd had a daughter.

Cute little thing.

Had?

Ham and me got
ordered to Nicaragua.

The brass promised they'd
airlift his wife and child out.

So he packed them up and left them
in a church on the edge of Saigon.

What happened?

An airstrike was called in
to halt the Kong advance.

One flyboy jumped the gun.
Dropped his napalm early.

It hit the church.

By the time we got back, all
he found was a burnout building.

When Saigon fell, Ham kept
slipping back in, searching.

But he never found them.

Lost her? That's unacceptable.

A temporary
setback, I assure you.

For your sake, I should hope so.

I have carried the leader's
standard to victory before.

He personally
decorated me for bravery.

Then tracking a child
shouldn't be too difficult.

Complicated by
Bates police alert, yes.

Difficult? No.

Then find her.

Without any temporary setbacks.

Don't abuse me, Diana.

There are other commanders
who can use my talents.

Perhaps you miss my point.

If she's not found by dark

I'll end more than
your military career.

I know this is
tough on you, Tyler.

I'm missing a son.

We've all lost someone.

I appreciate the sentiment,
Gooder. I'll handle it okay.

I'm just trying to say you
gotta hang on to your hope.

If I wanted a preacher,
I'd talk to Father Turney.

When was the last time you
saw the phone company

the water and power boys working
the street at the same time?

Yeah, window washers
across the street.

Place is pretty busy
out there. Let's go.

Hi, Nathan. I've got
a question for you.

I was just wondering if by...

Oh, Julia, I'm so
glad to see you.

I was afraid you'd
be at the Club Creole.

What?

No matter what your
friendships and confused loyalties.

I still value you.

I care for you far too much
to want to find your body

Among the others
in the wreckage.

Nathan, what are
you talking about?

As of this afternoon,
the Club Creole

will be no more.

Well, I really appreciate
your concern for me.

Well, you've always been
a part of Science Frontiers.

I hope you always will be.
Now, what was it you wanted?

Oh, no. Not important.
I'll be in my lab.

- Well?
- The relay's connected, sir.

Relax, Mr. Chiang.

We won't have long to wait.

Club Creole.

Who is this, Elias?

Julie. I'm so
disappointed in you.

Besides, you're too late.

You may not have much luck.

I apologize, sir, for their
incompetence, as well as my own.

Unfortunately, Dr. Parrish
has slipped through our fingers.

Looks that way, doesn't it?

Well, it doesn't matter.

I think we both know
where she'll show up.

What she'll find
when she gets there.

She won't find
anything or anyone.

I'm sure your
mother will like it.

Since the war, we don't
get much imported material.

Thank you.

Hey, how are you?
Merry Christmas.

- I'll take this one.
- Well, I don't know.

It's my last one.

- Who's it for?
- Someone special.

Well, he must be
to have you. Okay.

Elizabeth?

You by yourself?

Hold on. I'll be
out in a minute.

Season's greetings, gentlemen.

What can I get you?

A little bit of eggnog, huh?

A little Christmas punch?

Nothing like a little
bit of Christmas punch

to get the holiday
cheer going on.

No, sir. Everything
is under control.

I suspect it will only
be a matter of minutes.

I take that back, Mr. Bates.

What you have just heard is
the last gasp of the Resistance.

All that is left to do now,
sir, is sift through the rubble.

- Nicely done, Mr. Chiang.
- Thank you, Mr. Bates.

Let's get out of here.

It's all right.

I thought I sensed
you in the park today.

I won't hurt you.

Elizabeth!

Elizabeth, get away.

She won't hurt me.

- You don't know that!
- I do!

I can tell.

He won't hurt you.

Elizabeth, don't!

She saved my life.

It's okay now, Elizabeth.

Both destroyed, but how?

Genetic engineering is
an inexact science best.

Even for you, Diana.

That's because I'm
surrounded by incompetence.

I take offense at that.

Such aggressive
behavior, Dennis.

I think I have just
the place for you.

Yeah, there you are.

There you go.

You sure you're okay?
You're awfully quiet.

I just keep trying to
understand why she did it.

She saved my life.

I don't know.

I guess that we'll never know.

Maybe she was trying to get
back to you any way that she could.

Get back to me?

You were the source of her
life, Elizabeth. A beginning.

Perhaps Diana
underestimated the power of that.

Zahn teaches that all creatures
seek to reunite with their source.

To come together in
peace and goodwill.

Like Christmas.

How did you guys manage
to keep this place intact?

Well, Chris wired the
explosives to knock

in just the walls and
the ceiling upstairs.

Yeah, there's nothing
left of the kitchen up there.

So there's no way
they can find the door.

You mean the only way we can
get in here is through the alley?

Or the sewers?

I kind of like it like that.

Where's Ham?

Well, sweetheart, I don't think he's
much in the Christmas spirit today.

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!

It's Ham!

Merry Christmas!

To victory.

To friends and family.

To peace.

To Christmas!

- Merry Christmas, everyone!
- Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!
