Previously on Roswell, New Mexico...
ISOBEL: All this time, I never remembered her,
but I remember now.
I was friends with Rosa Ortecho.
I want to be with you.
That's why I told you the truth today.
Alex is one of my best friends.
I never would've slept with you
if I knew you two had history.
It can't happen again.
There have been a few unexplained deaths.
One link between all the victims is that they had that stamp
on their wrists when they died.
If what you're suggesting is true,
we aren't investigating a serial killer,
we are investigating
an alien serial killer.
MAX: I think this was a targeted attack.
What if this was about the other work
that I've been doing in here?
The antidote and the serum,
they're all gone.
I just told you, I don't remember.
I really blacked it all out.
I think there's a fourth alien,
and I think maybe your sister
is innocent of all of this.
What if the fourth alien can...
Get in people's minds when they're blacked out
and convince them to commit murder.
Then I think they're far more dangerous
than anything we've seen before.
_
LIZ: When faced with a true threat
to your survival, trust can be your greatest comfort...
and your greatest weakness.
Do you trust your family?
Do you trust your best friend?
What about your own mind?
Do you trust your own heart?
Do you really trust the person
you love most in the world?
You shouldn't.

ISOBEL: The memory wasn't mine. I'm telling you.
It's like someone else was inside of my body.
It was like they were using it.
I can influence someone,
you know, but this fourth alien,
they were much stronger than that.
They were controlling me.
It was like I wasn't even present.
LIZ: So we're back to square one.
Anyone could've killed my sister.
Well, someone's guilty. Rosa was just the beginning.
Except for Rosa, all of the victims were targeted
after Ranchero Night at the Wild Pony.
Maria's meal for the disenfranchised.
The next Ranchero Night is next week,
which doesn't give us much time
before someone else could end up dead.
MAX: All right, I'm gonna head to work.
Cam and I will build a profile.
LIZ: And I'm gonna head to the hospital.
The killer took most of the serum
when they wrecked my lab.
We need to make more. We only have one dose left.
How does the killer know about the serum?
Killer seems to know about everything.
They could've possessed anyone at any time,
they could've overheard us.
They've gotten away with 14 murders.
They need to believe they're still in the clear.
So just pretend aliens don't exist
and we live in a boring, quiet town
- where nothing ever happens. - Yes.
Max and I will go to work, Isobel will host
the UFO Emporium grand reopening gala tonight,
as planned, and Michael
will spend his time however Michael spends his time.
Okay?
- Hey, so... - (DOOR BELLS TINKLE)
this gala tonight,
would you be my date?
Unfortunately, I've already accepted
another man's request for my company.
Right. Your dad.
Yeah. I promised him we would go together.
But I'll see you there.
- Right? - Yeah. I can't wait.
Your ballroom dancing skills improve since high school?
Oh, they have definitely
gotten much worse.
CAMERON: Ranchero Night isn't an accident. I mean, the killer
targets undocumented immigrants,
homeless people, young drug addicts,
our most vulnerable citizens.
And he expects us to not look into those deaths too closely.
So the killer is able to incept or possess people
who have conditions that cause blackouts, right?
Alcoholics, epileptics, people like Isobel
who have blackouts triggered by trauma.
CLERK: Cameron, Evans.
I'm supposed to let you know
they're bringing Wyatt Long in.
Uh, he's on house arrest awaiting trial.
His lawyer says
he has information you may want.
That lowlife wants to make a deal?
Let me play bad cop this time, Evans.
It looks better on me.
(SIGHS)
MAX: Isobel!
Whoa. Easy, killer.
I realize now that was a poor choice of words.
I'm fine.
You're jumpy.
Whoever did this used powers that I didn't know I had
to kill a girl I didn't even know I knew.
(SIGHS) You said you two were friends.
(SIGHS)
Maybe more. I... (SIGHS)
I don't know.
Wasn't she troubled?
That's a word for it.
I've spent years pretending that I'm not what I am,
so I never honed my skills.
Maybe if I... if I practiced,
I could get stronger, you know, I could have more control.
I-I don't think more crazy alien stuff is the answer.
I don't like feeling like a victim.
You have me now.
We're stronger together.
Let's make a pact.
No more powers.
When you use them,
you get sick, you black out. You become an easy mark.
Promise me.
- Thanks. - You're welcome.
Were you about to pretend you didn't see me?
No.
I just didn't recognize you in daylight.
What, are you planning on feeding an army?
I'm gonna pull an all-nighter.
You're not going to the gala, then?
No. No, I couldn't decide which of my tuxedos to wear,
so I'm gonna skip it.
Alex is skipping it, too.
I guess he spent enough time there during high school.
Look, it's over.
It's been over.
You didn't do anything wrong.
No offense, Guerin,
but you are not exactly the arbiter of friendship.
Is the cage really necessary?
Well, if it smells like a stray dog...
Easy, Cameron.
On second thought, maybe it's safer in here.
I know. Last time I saw you, we got a little upset.
But I don't believe you killed Grant Green.
I think you were set up.
Now, I could testify as much,
if the information you say you have is worth it.
My buddy Hank says y'all were investigating a murder.
Carla, the hot Mexican from Ranchero Night.
What do you know about Carla?
I saw her on Cinco de Mayo
at the Wild Pony.
I was leaving, and I heard yelling
from the delivery door. Carla was back there,
screaming her head off,
in some kind of a fight with Maria DeLuca.
(GROANS) Damn.
(SIGHS HEAVILY)
(SIGHS)
(COUGHING)
Maybe the killer's possessing Wyatt right now,
trying to throw us off. It's not Maria.
She's Liz's best friend. Liz would know.
Yeah, and we spent 12 hours a day
in a car together for two years,
and I never once thought, "Hmm, he kind of smells
like an intergalactic crime fighter today."
Fair. All right. I'll keep an eye on her at the gala,
see if Liz noticed anything strange.
Hey, before you guys go on your donut break,
- I want to finalize my deal. - CAMERON: Deal?
I don't remember anything about a deal.
- Do you, Evans? - No.
I don't quite recollect that at all.
You lied to me.
You told me that you believed that I was set up,
that you'd testify as much!
I don't believe you were responsible
for Grant Green's death.
I think you were a puppet for someone much stronger than you.
But you are a racist sack of stupid
with years of your daddy bailing you out of violent crimes.
Back in June, when you shot out the Crashdown windows,
you got away with murder.
So I'm gonna let you rot.
Society gets the W,
and I'm gonna sleep easy tonight.
(SCREAMS)
(CLEARS THROAT)
Que guapo.
It's strange without Rosa's things,
but it was time.
It doesn't feel like it's mine without being hers.
- Does that make any sense? - Of course.
What else is bothering you?
Well,
I went to the hospital today to try to talk to Dr. Avila
about a plan to salvage our study.
Turns out there is no plan.
Our funding was pulled because they think
the attack on the hospital was political.
Avila's relocating the study to Palo Alto,
where things are more progressive.
And she wants you to go with her.
I am not leaving you.
Mira, I have loved
having you here these last months,
and you know that. But this diner, it's...
it's my American dream.
Yours is so much bigger.
Unless it's not me holding you back?
Papi, have we met?
Nothing's gonna hold me back.
I've been meaning to ask you...
I know it's risky,
but I think we should explore citizenship again.
How about we discuss it over a dance tonight?
Mm-hmm.
Hurry up.
I like to make an entrance.
Okay, ahora ve.

Ooh! Excuse me.
(LAUGHS) Hi!
God, look who's embracing the party.
I love the dress.
But you're wearing red lipstick.
- And? - What, you think
I don't know Rosa's rules? Red is armor.
Plus, nobody wears that shade if they're hoping to hook up
with a hot cop by the end of the night. It's messy.
I am not armoring myself against Max Evans.
I mean, not on purpose, anyway. I'm crazy about him.
And yet...
There's this opportunity in Palo Alto...
No. You can do your research from anywhere.
Don't use this as an excuse to run from Max.

- What the hell is this place? - Underground,
beneath my trailer.
It used to be a fallout shelter, now I, uh,
I use it for projects.
We got to get out of here.
How the hell did I get in here?
I don't know.
I was working and some smoke bomb went off
in my jacket pocket.
Got this yellow powder all over the place,
- and I passed out. - There's no service down here.
When I woke up, you were here, too.
And we are locked in.
Well, you have a lock pick in your brain.
Yeah, that's the thing.
I think this residue is rendering us powerless somehow.
Guessing your errant erections
aren't gonna make the lights flicker either.
We're completely trapped, and...
and there's nothing we can do about it.
(APPLAUSE)
ISOBEL: Good evening.
On behalf of Roswell's tourism board
and the Grant Green estate,
thank you all so much for joining us.
Now please give a warm round of applause
to Grant's brother, Graham Green.
(APPLAUSE)
Thank you, fellow humans.
Now, the money raised tonight
will benefit a cause dear to my late brother's heart,
Roswell's quest to expose the truth about extraterrestrials.
Now, Grant's work will continue, forever immortalized
in the brand-new UFO Emporium.
Have fun tonight, and remember,
they're watching.
(LAUGHTER, APPLAUSE)
You know, h-he looks exactly like his brother.
Mm-hmm. Yeah, speaking of brothers,
where the hell is mine?
I'm sure he'll be here soon.
Just try to relax and enjoy yourself.
Max is late, the caterers messed up the crudités,
oh, yeah, and there's a killer on the loose who used
- my body as a weapon. - I'll call Max
and check on the hors d'oeuvres and then
I'll try and distract you from the whole murder thing
with a potential quickie in the crop circle exhibit.
Oh.
(SIGHS)
Sorry. I, uh,
had to dodge Graham Green. The resemblance is, like, ugh.
Yeah, no, it's-it's fine.
- Are you okay? - Yeah, no, I was just,
um, expecting a call from my sister, and it never came.
Well, Kyle told me you've made some personal sacrifices
to protect Max.
Thank you. I'd like to help if I can.
Okay, um,
Jesse Manes wants access to the sheriff's department.
He wants information about anything strange going on,
and the longer it takes me to give him that information,
the longer he has my sister under his thumb.
She's in a military correctional facility.
At least, she was.
So you're protecting Max over your sister?
I'm trying to do what's right.
(SNIFFLES)
Why aren't you with him?
Uh, he left before I did.
- He's not here yet. - No, he's not.
And if he doesn't pick up his phone soon,
I'm gonna murder him.
- Too soon? - Uh... so, he hasn't told you.
Max and I got new info
about who the fourth alien might be.
(GROANS) Damn it.
Yeah, no kidding.
Almost like I tried that already,
but by all means.
What's your problem, Michael?
I want to get out of here just as bad as you do.
I just got rendered powerless by some kind of pollen,
and I have no idea what the hell it is.
And that is my fault?
You're the one who never wanted us to ask questions.
Never wanted us to call attention to ourselves.
You made the rule, and then we followed it blindly,
and now there's someone out there who's stronger than us,
who knows more about us than we do.
Yeah, well, judging from this place,
you've clearly been avoiding alien information.
No one made you follow my rule, Michael.
I'm not your dad.
You sure as hell been acting like it all our lives.
Yeah, it's been a real treat.
Look, we got to get out of here.
Isobel and Liz are at the gala with...
With who?
Cameron and I targeted a person of interest
in our investigation.
Who's the damn suspect, Max?
We're eyeing Maria DeLuca.
What? No. Absolutely not.
She was in an altercation
with one of the murderer's victims the night she died.
It's circumstantial, but we have to look into it.
Wait a second, that,
- that actually makes sense. - (SCOFFS)
Because when I tried to influence her,
I got violently ill,
and then I woke up in the desert with no clue how I got there.
All the victims are frequent to her bar,
she's the one who pointed us towards
Hank Gibbons, which didn't pan out.
Maria hates me, and she loved your sister.
I mean, whoever murdered Rosa wanted her all to themselves.
- I could feel that. - Maria is
- my best friend. - Yeah.
Who knows about obscure zodiac lore,
and who's still obsessed with your sister's favorite music,
and knew all of her secret hiding spots.
Give us a reason it can't be true, Liz.
I mean, it's not like murderers walk around
with a sign hanging around their necks saying,
- "Hey, I'm a murderer." - Isobel's right.
Chances are, the killer is someone you know.
I mean, it all adds up.
Maria had motive, she had opportunity.
And she had some kind of weird alien force field
around her brain.
It is not Maria.
It's not Maria!
- I'm serious, look elsewhere. - Since when have you been
- her biggest fan? - I'm not.
- But I know her. - How well?
Close enough to slip something in your jacket pocket?
(EXHALES)
Are you into her?
(LAUGHS): 'Cause, here,
I thought you were gay.
Oh, we are literally aliens,
and you're gonna hold me to some outdated binary of sexuality?
I'm bisexual, Max.
It's not that complicated.
Okay.
Maybe if you'd talk to me, I would've known that.
- We talk. - We speak.
We haven't talked in years, and you know it.
You want to talk about how we covered up a murder?
Hey, you're the one who decided to take the blame for killing
those girls, to let Isobel think it was you.
I didn't do that to you.
You decided to cover it up.
We should have told the truth.
I didn't have parents to turn to.
You did.
But you didn't want to tell 'em, so we carried it ourselves.
We never should've done that.
I get it. You haven't been mad at me for ten years,
you've been angry for 20.
(GROANS)
Ever since my parents showed up and picked me.
I got the family, I got the sister.
- You want to talk about burdens? - Mm.
I carry the guilt of that day everywhere.
I pushed my own parents away
because I am pissed they didn't take care of you.
You are my family, Michael.
Everything that happens to you happens to me.
Every beating, every burn, every damn heartbreak,
you are never alone.
We are trapped together in all sorts of ways.
Hey, I was looking for you.
Can we bail on this thing?
- Oh? - I need some girl time.
It's the blonde leading the blonde out there.
I'm having fun.
Isobel went all out planning this thing, hmm?
Do you mind watching my purse?
Major undergarment adjustment to make.
Mm-hmm.
- Can I borrow some lip gloss? - Since when do you ask?
We could go to the rooftop
or back to the Wild Pony.
I mean, we're not really gala types, are we?
Speak for yourself.
(DOOR OPENS)
(DOOR CLOSES)
Maria stole the serum.
- What? - Relax.
I used a fake syringe as bait. I still have the real one.
Great. Give it to me. I'm going to enjoy
taking Maria DeLuca down for good.
CAMERON: Okay, here on Earth,
we have a little bit of a process before giving
- the death sentence. - Maria's not the killer.
I think she's being possessed by the killer, just like you were.
Isobel, she said something
nice about you in there. She's not herself.
Hmm.
Well, the hospital shooter, Wyatt Long,
and I all had blackouts before the killer
had access to our minds.
So does Maria have some kind of preexisting blackout condition?
I mean, this would explain her fashion choices.
- (CHUCKLES) - No.
She could've been dosed.
I'm gonna go home real quick,
check on the champagne under a microscope.
Wait, no.
This nail polish has a date rape drug detector shine.
- That's not a thing. - It is, actually.
- CAMERON: Welcome to modern dating. - God, hard pass.
Okay.
Good news, Maria is not the killer.
Bad news, she was drugged.
You and I need to find Maria
before the fourth alien uses her to do something we can't undo.
(GROANING)
What's wrong?
My hand just stiffens,
seizes up sometimes.
So what's the real story?
I've told you.
No. You've said bar fight,
you've said junkyard accident,
you've said chupacabra.
You've never told me the truth.
Alex Manes's father.
He caught us together.
And he just snapped.
- You never let me heal it. - Yeah.
How would I explain a perfectly good hand to Alex?
Anything to protect the secret.
Talk to me, dude.
Nothing else for us to do.
I didn't let you heal it because I needed the reminder.
I needed evidence
of what could happen
when you believe that humanity might be good.
Alex made me believe
there was a place for me here.
Hope's a dangerous thing.
These scars, they remind me
to avoid it in the future.
(SIGHS) Found her.
- She's still breathing. - ISOBEL: Good.
And her pulse is steady.
According to the Internet,
she just needs to, to sleep it off.
The syringe is gone.
She must have handed it off to the real killer.
Oh, my God.
Which means whoever it is, they're onto us.
Really need Max here.
Think he stood me up.
Please.
That's something that you would do, not him.
You're the one who got into my mind
and made me leave town ten years ago, Isobel.
I never would have...
No, you would have.
That's the thing... I can't make people do something
that they don't already want to do.
- You wanted to run away. - Yeah, my sister was dead.
The whole town had turned against us...
Yeah, but that's not what I sent you away from.
I sent you away from Max, and you left because,
deep down, you wanted to go.
Look, that's not something that he ever needs to know.
But you should.
Damn it. Michael said he'd be home all night,
but I can't locate him or Max. That's not normal.
Wherever they are, they must not have any service.
I know a dead zone. I think I know where they might be.
I have to go.
