Harry and Asta team up with an unlikely ally to try to save the Earth.
Searching for something
Robert Hutchins, the son of Peter Bach, leads a blue-skinned alien into a cell. The alien pleads with him in his language, but Robert just walks away. The alien finds himself next to a cloaked figure, who tells him "It's okay. Don't worry." He lifts his hood, revealing a blue-skinned face and telling him "I am one of you." He sighs in relief, but says that you can't be too careful, that "they" keep Mantids in these cells. "Yes," agrees the man, lowering his hood. "They do," he agrees, his voice going deep. He lunges into the man and tears into him, tearing off his head. He lifts the cloak to reveal his Mantid form and then lunges down for more. At Harry Vanderspeigle's cabin, General McCallister asks who would have stolen Harry's bomb that he made to fight the Greys. He tells her that it has to have been Joseph, that he must have snuck in while he was sleeping. General McCallister summarizes the situation: that the Greys could destroy the Earth at any time and if she were to send her forces in, they would just freeze them. She says that it's over, that she can't stop them. Just then, the door opens and she emerges, asking if anyone has seen her tablet. "Oh, there it is," she comments and Harry addresses her as Bridget. "It's... me," comments McCallister and Harry tells her that Bridget is young and still experimenting with his form. Bridget blows a raspberry and leaves the room. McCallister complains that her father would still be alive if not for Harry's spaceship flying over when she was a child. She tells him that she spent her entire life looking for aliens to kill them all and rid the Earth of them. He tells her that it's his safe space and he's not feeling safe. She says he knows what she means, that he's one of the good ones. He laughs at this, saying that he caught her in a racism. She mutters that it's really over, but he tells her that he just needs to find Joseph and get his bomb back. He tells her it may take a little time, that he travels by portal. "What?" asks McCallister and he explains to her about Grey portal technology. He says that he already explained it to her and that he thinks sometimes she doesn't listen. She tells him not to worry, that she'll find Joseph. Harry thinks to himself that humans are always searching for something and sometimes it's the strength to tell someone they love that their world is falling apart. At the Hawthorne family household, Ben approaches Kate and sits down next to her. In unison, they each say that they need to tell each other something. Ben apologizes, but Kate tells him to go first. He asks if she's ever had something so crazy something that you have no idea what to do. She tells him that she has. They then share what they know of what they've been going through - being abducted by the Greys and Kate having child taken from her womb.
An unlikely ally
D'arcy Bloom arrives at Yellowstone National Park, outside the Sullivan Gravel Company. She records a video log, saying that she might not be able to do many more, but that she's finally there. She says that she may be scared and that she thought she was put on Earth to ski, but maybe it's this. She says if she dies saving everyone, she knows she's there for a reason. She suggests a bronze statue of her might be nice. "It was D'arcy," Asta tells Harry back at his cabin. He protests that it couldn't be her, but she explains that Elliot told her she came to his house and said she was going to do something big so that people would be proud of her. "We have to find her," she tells Harry and just then, the door opens, revealing Joseph Rainier. "He stole the bomb!" shouts Harry. "What bomb?" asks Joseph, seemingly nonplussed. "Never mind, it was her," agrees Harry. Asta asks what he's doing there and he asks if she wants to drug him again. She asks if he wants to be a dickhead again and he tells her that he doesn't. He holds up the notebook with the formula, demanding that Harry tell him what it does, and that if he says anything about ice cream, he'll know he might be lying. Harry explains that it will allow the Greys to make the Earth uninhabitable for anyone but them. "So, not humans?" asks Joseph, "and not half-humans." Asta asks if he didn't even know what the plan was. He tells her he knew something was up, that the Greys were acting weird and wouldn't make eye contact. Joseph mutters that he can't believe they were going to let him die, that he hasn't had a day off in seven years. Harry tells him it's horrible, that even the Septids get two weeks off a year. The chat a bit about the Greys' terrible health plan, Asta saying that they need to get back on track, that the Greys could destroy the Earth anytime now. "Today, actually," Joseph clarifies, saying that the Greys gave Harry's alien ball to Frank and told him to fill the chamber at Yellowstone with water. Harry tells him they can help him defeat Frank, that he built a bomb and D'arcy stole it. Asta agrees that he could help him find her. He says it may be too late, but she tells him they have to try, that there is a human part of him that cares. She says that Harry gets it. "If you help us, Asta will date you again," he tells him. Asta suggests they just focus on saving the planet, but Joseph agrees "I'm not gonna die for these bastards." At Yellowstone National Park, Frank holds forth the alien ball, the water rising. At the Hawthorne family home, Ben says that maybe it's good they've found out that aliens are kidnapping them, that it's better to know. He says that they can make a plan and get their daughter back. He says they can be smart about it. He rifles through some drawers and she asks what he's doing. "Covering the house in tinfoil," he tells her. She says that they need help, to perhaps call the Pentagon. She then suggests that they could call his uncle Jim, who works at the State House. "He's a custodian," points out Ben. Max comes in, asking what they're doing. "Oh, God" comments Kate as Ben puts away the tinfoil. "What?" asks Max, but Kate tells him she's just praying, pulling Ben aside. They whisper about the possibility that the Greys could be abducting him as well, saying that they need to check him without him finding out. Ben tells her that there's a metal detector. At the Grey facility, D'arcy stages a distraction for the Grey-human hybrids. She then sneaks in, following Harry's map, and logs that all that's left is to wait for the portal to open and step onto a spaceship. A portal opens and she steps inside. At the Hawthorne family home, Ben and Kate ambush Max and probe him with the metal detector. When he asks why they're being weird, they claim that the school called and that someone at the school has lice, so they need to check him out. In the woods, Deputy Mike Thompson and Sheriff Liv Baker are out searching, Mike taking the dog Cletus for a walk. Mike tells Liv he doesn't want to hear that their search was a waste of time because Joseph was taken by aliens. She points out that he saw Mayor Ben hit Joseph and that no human man could have walked away from it. He tells her that some people say the most efficient form of transportation is rolling. At the Hawthorne family home, Kate tells Ben that Max does not have a Grey tracking chip. He tells her that they need to get theirs taken out. He says that Harry won't do it, that he told him that his is too close to a nerve, but that he doesn't care, he wants it out. "What about our baby?" asks Kate and Ben tells her they will find a way, but he needs them to be safe. She tells him that it'll be okay, that they'll take care of it. He tells her that he's going to call Dr. Smallwood. Kate tells him to ask her if she can treat lice, that Max's head is filled.
Meeting in the middle
At the cabin, Harry, Bridget, Joseph and Asta head out. Asta points out that they don't even know where D'arcy is, but Harry says that he does. He tells Joseph that the plan is for him to portal them to the tunnels underneath Yellowstone, that he will stop them from using his alien ball, then they will climb up a ladder to reach a portal to the spaceship. He says they will portal aboard the trip and blow it up. "And find D'arcy," says Asta, and he tells her they will see how they are doing on time. Joseph opens the portal and Harry tells Asta that she's not going, that it's too dangerous. He tells her he will find her and she can stay and order pizza. He tells her not to follow them. She says they can follow her and runs through the portal. Once inside, Harry says that he has to stop the Greys and then they'll save D'arcy. Frank shows up and Joseph battles him, Asta taking a control device for a portal that Joseph dropped. She climbs the ladder and opens the portal, while Harry calmly asks Joseph if he has another control device, even as Joseph tries to strangle Frank. Joseph tells Harry that Frank has one. Harry grabs it, also taking some money, as Asta goes through the portal upstairs. Harry asks Joseph if he has things and Joseph agrees he does. Harry tells him to keep doing what he's doing. He says they can circle back at the cabin later, calling for Bridget to come on. Asta finds herself aboard the Grey spaceship. She raises her hands as a couple of Greys appear before her. Joseph claims the alien ball. He raises it and stops the water. On the spaceship, Asta is led into a cell alongside D'arcy. The Mantid growls in a cell nearby. Harry and Bridget arrive through the portal and are instantly met by two Greys. Harry asks calmly if either of them have seen a woman come through. "Never mind, I'll find her," he tells them, grabbing them by their necks and tossing them aside. In the forest, Sheriff Mike rambles about the growth rate of trees. They hear tree branch snapping and pull out their guns, only to be confronted by Detective Lena Torres. They lower their guns. Mike complains that Lena could have been killed, but Lena says he's the one who could have been killed. He asks what she's doing there and she's forced to admit that she's been tracking him because she's been worried about him. He thanks her for caring, saying that they've been tracking someone too. He says it's about all he should say, but Liv continues that they're tracking an alien, possibly a human-alien hybrid. Lena says she's joking and Liv tells her she never jokes about aliens. Lena says that there's no such thing, that aliens are disinformation spread by the government to cover up their gene-splicing program. Mike says that somebody gets it, that if he didn't think she was perfect before, she is now. Liv excuses herself, saying that she'll take Cletus for a walk. Mike and Lena then share a heart-to-heart, Mike telling her he really cares about her and he'd like to say it more often. Lena tells him she knows she can come on strong, saying she doesn't expect him to be the same way, but she'd like for him to meet her in the middle. He tells her the middle would be a good place to start. In the Grey cell, Asta tells D'arcy that she could have told her about her dad, that she would have been there for her. D'arcy says she shouldn't have to. She tells her she doesn't want her to look at her like she's a weight she's holding. She says it's no wonder she grew up thinking she had to take care of people, that she's Asta's villain origin story. Asta tells her she knows she's a caretaker because sometimes she doesn't want to look at her own stuff, but sometimes taking care of others is taking care of herself. She says it gives her everything she needs. D'arcy tells her she loves her and that it's all her fault. Asta tells her they'll be okay. At the Hawthorne family home, Ben tells Kate that his tracking chip is out, that for the first time in his life, he feels free. He tells her that Dr. Smallwood is ready for her, but she says she's not doing it. She tells him she was desperate to take it out, but after being hypnotized and seeing her baby, she just can't. She says they've been taking him his whole life and she wants him to have peace, but the chip is her only connection to their daughter. She tells him she can't leave her up there. He says that he can't let them keep taking her, but she tells him she wants them to. She says she's going to fight and not stop till they get their baby back. He hugs her and they go to bed.
