Meeting an alien
In her secret black site in Wyoming, General McCallister takes a report from a minion who tells her that their tests haven't detected any alien DNA on the boy "Bobby Smallwood." She tells McCallister that they're about to conduct another round of experimental tests, but McCallister tells her not to bother, that she's going in. The woman states that she'll inform the guards to prepare the restraints, but McCallister tells her not to bother, that the boy isn't an alien, that none of them are. She enters the boy's cell. She tells him that she remembers being a child and the pranks that they would play, that she knows he'd do anything to fit in. She says that it's clear he looks like the dead boy in the newspaper article, but asks whose idea it was for him to pretend to be an alien. She says he can tell her, that he won't get in trouble. When, however, he does not reply, she shouts at him to "cut the fake alien shit!" She sighs, saying that she knows that aliens are real, that she saw them with her father when she was about his age. He walks up to her and puts his hand on her head. He sees a memory of hers, of her seeing the spaceship as the young girl Eleanor Wright, then a man coming and shouting at his father, making him jump to his death. He releases his hand and morphs into the form of the alien baby. McCallister gasps, stunned.
The most mature thing
Harry Vanderspeigle thinks to himself that his people started out as aquatic creatures and he is glad they started walking on land. He thinks that he would not want to be a fish, as so much of their lives is out of control. They swim around, looking for food, only to get yanked out and then thrown back. He thinks that it's not the fishs' fault, that if he saw a pizza on a hook he might not be able to control himself either. Dan tells Asta that what happened with her mother is his fault, that he spent his whole life trying to protect her and he should have told her a lot sooner. She tells him that she now understands why he didn't. He explains that he met Mary-Ellen Taylor when she joined his band and so Asta was like the fifth member. He ended up watching Asta most of the time and then one day Mary-Ellen was just gone. His bandmates told him to call Child Protective Services but instead he called an adoption lawyer. She tells him he's too kind for his own good and he tells her that it was love, that he can't make people see how special she is, but he always has. Mayor Ben Hawthorne enters the living room of the Hawthorne family home and sees Kate and Kayla at the table. He says that he thought he heard voices. Kate tells Ben that Kayla asked her to help her with a case. Ben says that he knew she'd get back into law when the time was right, asking what the case is. She tells Ben that she's helping Kayla's firm to get a temporary restraining order to stop the resort from going forward. "Huh," comments Ben, asking if he can get her some coffee. She agrees that it would be nice. He goes to make the coffee. Kate and Kayla start discussing the case, but Ben keeps running the coffee grinder, perfectly timing it to interrupt their conversation each time after a few words. Kate tells him she knows what he's doing and Kayla says she's just going to head out, that she'll let Kate know what the judge says and take a rain check on the coffee. "Was that the most mature thing you've ever done?" asks Kate. "Top three," quips Ben. Kate tells him that she knows they're on different sides of the whole resort thing and that maybe it wasn't fair for her to have a meeting there. She asks that they make a pact, that the second they walk in the door, they don't talk about the resort. They agree it's a deal and shake on it.
The system
Asta enters Harry's office in the Patience Health Clinic, saying that he wanted to see her. He agrees that he had something that he wanted to tell her. He says he didn't know how to tell her, so he wrote it in a letter. He hands her a couple of papers, the opening which reads "Dear, Asta, The Greys are hear to kill us all." "That's your opening?!" asks Asta, stunned. He says he wanted to get her attention and she asks if they're all going to die. He grunts and she asks why they are there. He admits that he doesn't know exactly, that it all happened very fast. He tells her that he will find them and not to worry. She points out that he drew the Earth exploding. Sheriff Mike Thompson calls Detective Lena Torres of the Jessup Police Department. He leaves her a message, asking her to give him a call sometime. Deputy Liv Baker comes in, saying that she knew it and that he and Lena are going to have ten babies together. He tells her that he hadn't hung up yet and he was on the verge of leaving a perfect message, but he came up on her with a lead pipe and smashed his knees. She puts down some papers, saying she's just going to leave them there and walks away. At home, D'arcy Bloom puts an ice-pack on her swollen knee and swallows some more pills. Elliot comes out the bedroom and she hides the pills. She asks if he's seen her blender lid, saying it was in the drawer and she has a system. He tells her he never pegged her for a system person. She asks if he thinks she's messy and he tells her that he likes her being a neat freak about her blender. She insists she's not being a neat freak and he asks if she's really going to rant at him over a blender lid. She tells him she just needs him to help her find it. He pulls it out of a dish rack. She kisses him and blends a smoothie, asking him if he wants one. He asks if she's okay, saying she seems a little all-over-the-place. She tells him she's just in her head about the tournament. He suggests they skip tonight if she's too stressed, but she tells him that dinner is on.
"I should have killed you when you were begging me not to rip your neck open like a stupid baby."
"Sometimes I wish you had. The only thing keeping me going was the incontrovertible fact that the next time I saw you, you would be the one cowering in fear."
- Harry Vanderspeigle and Peter Bach
"Look, honey, I don't want to talk about the resort, okay? Let's just leave it."
"The part of me that's your husband is glad to see you smiling. I like it when you're happy."
"Thank you. I am. I'm really happy."
