Original subtitles

Previously on Roswell, New Mexico.

Jones said once you've gathered all the pieces, Liz or Taco will bring the

alighting. This is a method of transportation?

I'm thinking about a lock that will prevent him and his followers from ever

using it.

That's what Jones wanted from Liz. He thought that she could pick that lock.

Clyde, he's a true believer. He didn't need his precious savior to warp his

into obeying him. Look, whatever your problem is with me and my father, it's

nothing to do with her.

She paid for what she did against the gods. It's over.

Do you think I now have the means to finish what my savior asked me to do? I

think it is.

I sense your nerves.

You needn't be afraid.

I see great potential in you.

Tonight, you become a child of Ophiuchus.

Like the precious flower that grows from the ashes of our people, some

believe that it is our spirit blossoming anew.

Like this flower, we will rise from the ashes of Oasis and descend to a greater

purpose.

I want nothing more.

My life was meaningless before your teachings.

Well, there is more to Ophiuchus than being a follower.

What is that, my savior?

A chance to evolve.

No doubt you've heard the stories of how I used science to enhance my abilities.

As one of my most loyal acolytes, I would like you to join my inner circle

share this gift with you.

Why me?

I never even formed my own triad.

I can offer you something so much better than a triad.

The Sophia can mark, forge us a bond between us that allows you to draw on my

strength. That is the sacrifice I will make for you.

And there will come a time when I will require a sacrifice from you in return.

Welcome to my family.

Yo teach we open in 30 mind if I clear this booth before the morning roast I

know if I don't touch my stuff They're not hot there.

What is all this anyway?

You wouldn't understand even if you tried We're

closed Well, that doesn't look like the soup of the day I can't remember the

genome sequence to rapid application Never mind. Oh, what do you need?

My brain used to get foggy, too, when I was coming down.

I don't have time for this. Well, make time, Liz. I mean, the alien myth is

taking over your life. You moved out of Max's house. You took my blood to save

Michigan J. Frog. I mean, when was the last time that you thought about

other than science? How about you focus on your own recovery?

Are you joking?

Oh, my God, what is this? Some sort of intervention?

She's being melodramatic. She's not the only one worried about you.

Look, I'm sure I'm the last person you want to see right now, but we all want

help. Must not be that bad, right? Otherwise, Maria would be here. She

be. She's keeping watch at Alien Hench in case someone tries to phone home.

Garen and Alex would have been here, too. They weren't stuck inside Theo's

pocket dimension.

Which is why I am working to pull them out.

God, I just need to take a little bit longer, and then I'll be fine. Yeah, a

little bit turns into a lot, Liz. You keep feeding the fix until there's

left to feed.

Come with us to Deep Sky.

We'll set you up to detox.

I'm working on a hybrid methadone that'll help ease the withdrawal

no, just because you've done a couple backdoor alien surgeries does not mean

understand what I'm doing, Kyle. I just watched the most irredeemable person you

can imagine find her second act.

If Tesca can rehabilitate herself, Liz, so can you. I am working on this to

protect us from threats she's set in motion. And Clyde, well, he's still out

there doing God knows what. What are these equations, Liz?

Clyde is interested in harnessing your abilities.

And since you gave him up, I am charting the nucleotides in your triple helix to

see if I can fight fire with actual fire.

By replicating the blue flame in the lab?

Yes.

You're only going down this spiral because I refuse to face my fears.

But this is so much worse.

I can't lose you, Liz.

So if saving you means getting my abilities back, that's what I'm going to

So what good is innovative?

There's nothing we can't overcome together.

You were my turquoise, now let me be yours.

Hey, you have that supercharged brain and think of all the scenarios.

You know what happens if you keep going down this path.

What, I can't walk away?

Then walk towards us.

Let us know what's going on right now, okay? Let's go back and back.

Bonnie and I have already searched half the town. You can follow my dad's clues

and work at Alex behind.

All I know is once I get this rust bucket purring again, we're kicking the

search party into high gear.

Maybe we should look for some alien trees.

We're going to need the fruit to open the portal home.

And which home would that be?

You think about making the jump to Oasis?

Well, we're not jumping anywhere without the fruit.

You can go apple picking all you want.

But my priority is Alex.

So I'm going to search every damn level of this inferno until I find him.

If we split up, we'll find Alex twice as fast.

I'm so proud of you.

Look, I know that the next few days are going to be hard, but we'll get through

it together.

Can I have a few minutes?

Clear my head.

What's in the closet, Liz?

It's one of my old hidey -holes of you.

That's not what this is about.

Seriously, Alyssa? I'm not ready.

There is too much at stake. Give me the canister, Rosa, or I will take it from

you.

How's Jessica doing?

She's good. Yeah, she's laying low. You know, she's processing years of

repressed traumatic memories, but I think we're making progress, Alyssa. She

a very good teacher.

Thank you.

I've been doing some thinking, and... Me too.

Yeah, you go first. Okay.

Um... Well, I'm not sure if you've noticed, but since Mexico, things

have kind of been... Awkward.

Yes. Uncomfortable. Mm -hmm.

Steep.

Well, I mean, I probably could have used a different adjective for that one,

but... Our friendship is important to me. Yeah.

And I don't want us to keep our distance or act weird around each other.

So can we just go back to being drinking slash occasional surgery

buddies?

Yeah, absolutely.

That's funny. That's actually, that was exactly what I was going to say.

Okay. Buddy.

Hey, are Liz and Rosa not down yet?

No.

Liz?

Hey, what happened?

What?

Where's Liz?

I found her secret stash, and then we started arguing, and it's gone, so she

must have knocked me out with that lamp, I guess, and, Max, she wasn't ready.

She's relapsed.

No signs of head trauma from what I can see.

Why does my brain still feel like scrambled eggs?

The CT scans will show us more, but you should take it easy for a while.

God, I made the oldest rookie mistake in the book. Never trust the word of an

addict. Hey, Max will find her.

Yeah, but, I mean, a sponsor should be on solid ground.

Maybe Liz was right. I'm so early into my recovery. I mean, how can you start

your new life when your old one feels impossible to shake?

Lipid failures are not yours.

All of us have seen how much you've grown.

Roswell will remind you of who you were, but it'll also show you how far you've

come.

Hmm.

Is that how you felt coming back from the motherland?

Because Maria told me that the Valenti family reunion turned a little picante

when Isabel showed up in Korea.

Yeah, well, feelings were confessed, but apparently Isabel and I were better as

friends.

That's odd.

Your scans show no sign of a concussion. That doesn't make sense. There's

nothing wrong with my brain. Why can't I remember what happened?

Maybe it's not human science we should be looking at.

Finally, she awakens.

Where's my sister?

Still at that mockery of a diner, I presume.

You're the only Ortego I need.

What is this place?

This mine shaft is under farmland that was owned by Mr. Jones himself in 1947.

This flower grew from his remains.

Here, where Jones first began our quest home, his spirit will guide me to finish

the work he started.

And by Linz Ortego's hands, the alighting will begin.

I thought for sure he would be in here.

He could live off of buttered popcorn and pineapple gummy bears for weeks.

All right, come on. Let's keep searching before whatever that is rolls in. Wait,

wait, wait.

If it storms in here, maybe Alex saw shelter.

Come on.

No, it's not here.

Hey, hold up.

Is that alien glass?

Maybe my dad left another message.

What was that?

Maybe I took the wire or something.

I'll get us out of here.

No, it's not working.

Wait, these old shipping containers are coated in lead. That means

electromagnetic waves can't pass through them.

What does that mean?

When I first got inducted to the possible, Michael told me that our

electromagnetic. So we're trapped.

My savior set this plan in motion many moons ago. As soon as the ship crashed

1947, he began devising a way to return home with his clone.

Jones aligned himself with one of the most esteemed scientists on Oasis.

The traitor you call Theo.

Theo built the portal for Jones. What he built was purposefully broken.

In his transmission from the Lockhart machine, my savior said, your brilliant

mind could fix it. I'm not an engineer.

My expertise is limited to genetics.

And that's exactly why you're so important.

This mark bonds select members of Ophiuchus. It makes us a family.

But anyone who bears it will never be able to use Theo's portal to return home

to Oasis.

So it's not just a regular drunken night tattoo?

This brand is infused with Ewasian glass.

It created a bond that allowed me to draw energy from my savior. I need you

use your genetic expertise to counteract Theo's defenses.

And then you walked through the liminal space into a portal back to Oasis? No,

the liminal space was a trick Theo created to deceive my savior.

The only portal I need is right here in Roswell.

I plug in the star map.

Set a course for Oasis.

And I walk away from this miserable rock for good.

How does that work exactly?

The only answers you need lie in the traitor's Bible.

I took the liberty of translating the Elysian symbols for you. Why would I

help you?

Because a certain Spitfire waitress's life depends on it.

That's how you kidnapped me. You mind -controlled her.

She sure works around a lot of knives.

I mean, it'd be a real shame if she suddenly got the impulse to slit her

But you're brilliant enough to prevent that from happening.

Excuse you.

That wasn't finished.

Did Liz give you this?

Insisted against it, actually. I made an executive decision. My team relocated

them this morning. So you stole them.

Liz was being illogical. Your eggs are much safer here. I have the best

that money can buy.

And I'm going to call them now, actually, to find out why the sheriff

here without a warrant.

I think you'll find out your chief of security is taking a temporary leave of

absence.

I think it's time you and I had a chat.

I'm looking for Liv.

Well, you won't find her here. My mentee abandoned me on the brink of an

incredible discovery.

More like on the brink of self -destruction.

That mist that you made, it's ruining her. And from the looks of it, it's

the same to you.

This is a drug bust.

I just want what's mine. Au contraire. That's my proprietary formula. Made with

my pot.

They're not iPhones.

But I have a friend at the FBI, Agent Cameron, who would be very, very

interested in the secrets you're keeping here. You are not the only one with

friends in high places, Sheriff.

One phone call to Director Whitman at the Bureau, and your secrets are also

exposed.

Well, then let's end this chess match.

One canister.

That is all I'm asking.

Here I thought you wanted to flush your girlfriend's pills down the toilet.

But you want the mist for yourself.

Let me go.

Now that the mist has unburdened Liz of her irrational emotions, she finally

sees you for who you are.

Dead weight.

That's how you see relationships. It's no mystery why Allie disappeared into

Mexico. You're not exactly a qualified couples therapist.

Therapy is for dwelling in the past. I prefer the future. Care to know what's

store for you?

So you're a psychic now. Better. That mist has made my brain capable of

simulations that would give a supercomputer a migraine. This isn't a

This is real life. Maybe you'd like to join it. Real life, which is governed by

physics, chemistry, biology, equal and opposite reactions, cause and effect,

entire lives written into our very DNA before we even take a first step. One

chain reaction leading to one inevitable conclusion.

There is no future together for Max Evans and Liz Ortega.

Wow.

I am so sick of people telling me what my future is. I'm going to take my fate

into my own hands, so give me the mist.

Your sister may be able to restrain one guard, but can she take on all four?

Theo's equations are entirely theoretical.

To understand the practical components, I need my equipment at Centivative. If I

could call Shivani... Unless you run straight back into the arms of Clone

Before Teska betrayed our cause, we collected all that was needed per our

savior's instructions.

Unless there's something else from Centivative you crave.

Aren't you and your sister bickering over this?

Evolution in one breath.

It's quite a novel approach to improving your kind's efficiencies.

You know the Savior also sought science to ascend?

I am nothing like Jonah. He was a monster. His greed destroyed everyone in

world, and I will not drug myself so that you can destroy mine.

The Ficus teaches us that the only true monsters are those who sit on the

sidelines and refuse their purpose.

From what I gather, you and I have found a common ground.

I took the myth to protect my friends.

I don't judge you for wanting to reach your full potential.

In fact, I encourage you to embrace it.

Besides, what other option is there?

And you're sure this short -term memory loss isn't a byproduct of Liz's drug and

ditch?

I triple -checked my work.

Oh, no, of course you did. I know that. You're very good at your job. I didn't

mean that. Oh, I didn't think you were, like... Doubting me in any way. No, of

course I wouldn't doubt you. I'd trust you with my life.

Not to make the fall about me, but my memory loss seems to clearly be a non

-consensual close encounter of the third kind. So could you just hop in my mind

and see what happened?

Yeah.

Cool if I join.

Just figured we should all know what we're dealing with.

We should all know. Yes.

What's the last thing you remember with you and Liz?

Give me the canister, Rosa, or I will take it from you. You might be the

of the family, but I'm the brawn. Try me. You're wasting our time. I'll figure

out how to get some.

I can't let you leave.

Oh, my God, what did you do?

Not that one.

Forget it.

didn't ditch.

Clyde took her.

Okay, we have to go to the crash town.

Help!

Michael, somebody help us!

You might want to try to save your strength.

How can you be so calm?

My severe lack of chill that got us stuck in here in the first place.

I've become so obsessed with following my dad's trail of breadcrumbs to Oasis

that I'm falling for acne booby traps.

Well, we do crazy things for family.

I used to be a preacher.

No, God was my shepherd. But what if I strayed too far from the flock?

If my dad's plan for me keeps putting people that I care about in danger, how

can I place faith in that?

The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

You're quoting scripture at me now.

Well, our triad used a revivalist church at home base.

I'm a quick study.

Your dad did everything he could to protect you from Joan, to give you a

That sounds like a pretty good shepherd to me.

You know, whoever did this, they could have gotten Alex.

Maybe we haven't found him because he... Alex isn't dead.

Hey, don't go blaming yourself. You didn't put Alex in that thing hole.

may not be my fault, but I still have to make it right.

Alex and Michael are each other's family.

We do crazy things for family.

My own mother disowned me.

And when I thought that I had finally found what I was missing in Ophiuchus,

even they kept me at a distance.

The dictator wanted to use my powers, but he was afraid of them too.

I never received the mark of his followers, his family.

I think you dodged a bullet there.

But more importantly, the Pod Squad's your family now.

And they will welcome you like a long -lost sibling when we get out of here.

At least kiss me before you bust my lip.

I cannot believe that it's actually you.

I'm just so happy you found me.

I knew you had to be here somewhere.

I'm here.

You're here.

Where is here, exactly? My dad created this space as a kind of interdimensional

mousetrap for...

Jones and his merry band of followers.

Speaking of traps, apparently he wasn't the only one. I just knew I needed the

upper hand, and alien glass seemed like the perfect bait in this lead -based

shipping container.

It was a perfect pre -made Faraday cage.

You build an alien roach motel where powers wouldn't work?

It was good to see friends, old and new.

I got to admit, I was beginning to think that I never would.

Then I remembered what you said.

No matter how far apart we are, we'll always find our way back to each other.

Well, we couldn't have done it without Maria's help.

How'd you reach out to her anyway?

Well, when I first got here, I was looking for anything familiar.

The diner, the casino, this drive -in.

Everything was stuck in the 1940s.

Except when I got to our house.

It wasn't stuck in unpleasant, Bill? It was, but then I remembered reading

something in the file with a deep sky about conscious communication through

realities. I mean, it was all theoretical until... Until Maria made it

Yeah, I think she was the conduit.

I saw her standing in our living room with our things.

It was like she was shining a spotlight on the world that I so desperately

wanted to get back to.

I had to get my message across.

I had to get out of here.

Hmm.

When did Hurricane Theo appear on the radar?

I've been studying this place trying to understand it, but this storm is new.

I noticed a steep drop in barometric pressure last night.

Have you seen any, um, alien fruit since you've been here? I saw a grove of

weird -looking trees about ten miles east.

Why? Turns out interdimensional travel runs on green energy.

And lots of it. The fruits are ticket out.

Okay, then I'll take you.

Well, can you make a map?

Dallas and I will go.

You two deserve a chance to catch up.

What do you think you're doing?

Theo's notes fall for a combo that's only found on Oasis that we need to

out an Earth equivalent. I need ferric oxide, i .e. rust.

You want your damn tattoo removed or not?

Need I remind you what happens to Vanessa if you fail to produce results?

take me 33 minutes and 29 seconds to develop a serum that'll circumvent

defenses. Give or take the 10 seconds, I just wasted explaining it to you.

Pace yourself.

The mist isn't for me. I created it by genetically altering the enzymes in an

alien test subject, and it's going to help me alter the mark.

I'm going to get the rest.

Your restraint is impressive.

Those overpowered by their vices were a strain on our civilization.

The Savior mercifully put an end to their misery.

But he spared your life?

I have always kept my mind and my body pure for a vehicle.

Fanaticism is no different.

You push the one person who cares about you down a sinkhole because of your

obsession with Jones's cult.

You will return to Oasis alone.

Now try it.

I am never alone.

My savior is always with me. How does he still have a hold on you, even in

death?

Ophiuchus was a method of manipulation.

Jones created a religion of corrupted ideas to amass power.

And that mark on your shoulder, it's a brand.

Because he owns you.

Like cattle.

This is the symbol for the children of Ophiuchus. Designed by a self -serving

father. He told you it would make you stronger, but the truth is he was

off of his chosen people.

Bonnie saw the truth.

Tesca broke free from his lies. You can too.

They were traitors.

They were your friends' ones.

They aren't the ones with the problem. You are.

You have 33 minutes and 29 seconds to finish this job, or else Vanessa goes

splat off that roof.

Whoa. I'm trying to, but I can't.

There's some creepy voice in my head telling me to jump.

Okay, just take it easy.

Stop, stop. He said... He said if you move me, I'll... Oh, God, please help

I don't want to die.

Any ideas?

Liz figured out that resonant frequencies can break psychic tethers,

four roommates, I've gotten kind of good at silencing them, so maybe... So you

think it'll work?

I can't let Vanessa lose her life because I'm afraid to try. Give it a

I'm almost locked in.

The frequency is destabilizing. Keep going. She's pretty unstable up there

herself.

It's kind of romantic, isn't it?

Yeah.

Who needs a sunset when you've got permanent midnight under a starless sky?

No, I mean just being here together.

You might say that our first real date was in the drive -in.

You're calling that a date?

I seem to remember you telling me off about some stolen copper wire.

Well, I didn't think it was perfect.

What about our relationship ever has been?

All of these restless nights, I just...

Sat looking at this blank screen, imagining that this nightmare was just a

about star -crossed lovers.

I'd sit here dreaming about getting home to you, and I could picture you

perfectly on the other side doing the same.

I think I gotta ruin another night at the drive -in.

I was dreaming of going home.

But I forgot where home really is.

See, I met this guy.

What?

You met a guy?

Not like that.

Clyde. He's an alien.

And he showed me Oasis.

Not the real place, but there is a way to... Go back to your planet.

I told myself I was just milking him for information.

But the truth is, I was tempted.

I hate myself for letting that fantasy distract from what we have built

on our planet.

I mean, I can't say I'm surprised.

Because I know you, Michael. You've been searching for home since we met.

Look, Oasis, Roswell, I don't care if we are on other sides of the universe. As

long as we are looking at the same stars, I will never look away.

So this movie, how does it end?

Pick your favorite sci -fi trope. We could detonate the asteroid heading

Earth, shut down the giant lizard, destroy the city, or it can end with a

Michael Garron, will you marry me?

This isn't where I imagined our engagement photos either, but I couldn't

We've already spent too much time apart.

So?

I can't wait to see Sanders in a tux.

Yes.

Yes.

I am so in love with you, it's embarrassing.

How far did you say those trees were?

Like 10 miles.

Yeah, we could work with that.

Whoa.

I gotta wait till the honeymoon?

No.

It's just, um... If this

is an alternate dimension, the amount of energy that it would take to build it

would border on atomic fission.

Like nuclear power.

It would have unintended consequences.

Radiation.

The gas mask.

I felt nauseous as soon as I got here.

Did you?

Dallas? Bonnie?

Okay, so it's only humans.

Which is why Theo didn't realize.

Realize what?

What are you saying? The gas mask helped with the nausea.

But it couldn't stop this.

Visitor Lizard?

Yeah, I mean, Tesco said Claude was Ophiuchus' most loyal disciple.

I don't think he could resist a pilgrimage to the Mecca of Jones.

Cults do love a farm.

You know, considering that we are attempting an alien ambush, right now

the time to, uh, huff the magic dragon.

Shimani's security swore me before I could get the mist.

Oh, God, I'm sorry.

Rosa needed me. No, no, no. If you hadn't helped Rosa, we wouldn't know

Liz was.

So...

I just can't lose her.

We're gonna find her.

Once injected, this serum will disable the tech in your

alien rune and allow you to walk through the portal back to Oasis.

Yeah, those trembling hands won't be doing anything.

How do I know you haven't deceived me?

You'll have to believe in something other than Ophiuchus.

I am sorry, my savior, for what I'm about to do.

But this is the only way to protect your legacy.

You!

You'll pay for crossing a fence!

Was that your idea of an escape?

No, the distraction.

You were right not to trust me.

To miss the synthesize from Bonnie's virus and by reverse engineering its

chemical structure, I was able to mimic her abilities and render you powerless.

You saved yourself.

I was just there to catch your fall.

So I hate me.

Oh, we're all too here to support you.

Kyle's putting the finishing touches on his detox stuff, and Rosa's waiting in

the wings.

You know, when you stood up and faced your fears this morning, I thought maybe

was ready to do the same.

But that may say to open my mind up to endless possibilities, and I just

I could use it.

And I don't want to lose you.

Well, I ain't going anywhere.

All right?

I'm going to be the man you need me to be.

Max, I should not have said that you're holding me back.

Get some rest, okay?

Tomorrow's a new day.

These should help ease her withdrawal.

For a couple of hours.

Okay.

Then I'll take it from there.

There's only so much medicine can do.

Even the alien kind.

After that, we'll take it day by day.

Sounds like someone's backing the sponsor side.

Yeah. For as long as it takes.

What about New York?

You can't put your life on pause. We can watch her relive.

I'll send you updates.

She's been there for me every time I needed her most.

I can be a little bit patient.

And, by the way, I think so should you.

With a certain green -eyed alien warrior goddess, who would give Gamora a run

for her money?

Isabel and I are just friends.

Yeah, I know that you say that, but is she on the same page?

Because the start of that whole mindscape trip was hella awkward.

Like, I get what it's like to put a cage around your heart, I just don't think

now is the time to throw away the key.

So what do I do then?

I already told her where I stand.

Why don't you try talking less and listening more?

Hey, brother.

Hey, sis.

Any, uh, sign of Clyde? Yeah, well, it took me a little while to figure out

which shaft he'd hunkered down in. By the time I got there, all that was left

was a severed hand.

So this isn't over, then?

Well, if Liz has a part to play, I gotta play mine.

What about that mist?

I will find a way, with or without it. And running away from my fears almost

Liz killed. I cannot let that happen again.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

You know, losing a love like you and Liz have, that's... No, that's terrifying.

Laura.

You and Kyle.

Why did it take him closing the door?

For me to realize that all I want to do is drop, kick it off with Sinjus.

So what's stopping you?

I mean, those are part of a relationship. They close, but they're

be opened.

I don't know.

I think I've played enough with that man's emotions.

He made it pretty clear that I had to miss my moment.

Epic love stories aren't made up on a single moment.

They're built over a lifetime.

I refuse to believe it's too late for either of us.

I should have told you right away. I just didn't want to ruin this moment.

You're trying to save my life. It's already lost.

Are you going to say anything?

What do you want me to say?

Five minutes ago, I was imagining wedding vows, and now you want me to

eulogy. No, I just don't want to spend my last days wallowing in the

I want to marry you.

Did you find the proof?

The trees were burned down.

We're stuck here.

Dallas can marry us right now.

Please, we're running out of time.

It's all in your head.

Dancing circles in the dark. We have a situation at the gate.

Who are you?

I see you've expanded your mind. Why don't you do the math?

You're one of them.

What do you want?

We can begin with that myth.

We've lost your powers.

It appears the great Liz Ortega wasn't worthy of my savior's faith.

But I believe that we can succeed where she failed.

Why would I help you?

Because I can bring your daughter back.
