Falling Skies

This is insanity.

You are talking to me like this is Iraq,

and I just got off the transport.

And you're talking to me like I haven't spent

all this time fighting side by side with the Masons!

Don't you see?

They have learned to play the long game.

Spikes and eye worms.

We don't know if they can be controlled.

I just -- how can I believe this?

You're wrong.

Okay, Dan, I know.

I know this is tearing you up inside.

But the Espheni have mastered the art

of infiltrating our people and turning them against us,

and we cannot let that happen.

Katie?

What is wrong? What is wrong?

No, hey, listen, you need some sleep.

We both do.

I want you to think about something.

Is there anyone else?

In the 2nd Mass who's working with the Espheni,

even against their own will?

Gee, I...

Let me...sleep on that.

See what I can come up with.

Yeah.

And Dan? Think about after tomorrow.

Everything we can accomplish...

Together.

Ma'am! No luck yet on those two 2nd Massers

who attacked Sergeant Kagel,

but we think they're still on base.

Step up patrols, Private.

I want those two women found.

Yes, ma'am.

Yes.

Affirmative.

I understand.

Yes, sir.

Hal? Hal, you okay?

Oh, never better.

Keep you two separated this time.

We don't have a lot of options.

Yeah, and Ben's injured.

He's probably getting interrogated by Kagel again.

I'd like to get my hands on that guy.

Mm-hmm. At least Weaver got Matt out.

You know, Maggie's either hiding or she's gone.

Otherwise, she'd get thrown in here with us.

No, Weaver's our best bet.

Wherever he is, he's working on a plan.

Got you!

Come on.

Why were you meeting with her?

Come on!

Aah!

Well...

You won't be meeting with her anymore.

Man: Atten-hut!

Return to your barracks now!

We've got an incident outside of the brig!

Hold your position! Lieutenant, keep an eye.

That's far enough. Turn to your barracks!

You're murdering the Masons.

We're warning you! Step back! We wanna see them right now!

We're not gonna let this happen!

2nd Mass, stand down. All of you.

What is wrong with you? We are on the same side.

We don't side with traitors. Traitors?!

Stand back!

Calm down. What the hell is going on?

What is wrong with you?!

That's enough.

Lieutenant Wolf, take the full 2nd Massachusetts

from the bunkhouse to the internment area.

Guards posted. What?

I want no more incidents tonight.

Now!

Captain, you're making a mistake.

Captain, you know this is wrong.

Let go of me! Get your hands off me!

Captain, all due respect,

isn't confinement to quarters enough --

Lieutenant, are you questioning a direct order?

No, ma'am.

Private Grey!

Lieutenant.

I agree with you. You were brave to speak up.

It's not right.

These death sentences are wrong, too.

I'm not the only one that sees it.

What the hell are we doing?

Come with me. I wanna show you something.

Just outside camp.

Come on.

Ben? What the hell did you do to him?

Hal: Hey! Ben, are you okay?

Hey, what'd you do to him?!

Stand back, Mason.

Ben, Ben.

Hey! Ben, I got you.

Could you at least get him some water, please?

Hal, how is he?

He's healing. At least they didn't rip out any more spikes.

I'm fine.

Hal's right. I just -- I just have to rest.

Here you go. Here.

Some water.

So you're okay with torture, huh?

He was interrogated. He was tortured!

One of those spikes was forcibly ripped out of his spine!

I don't argue points of honor with convicted traitors.

Come on. You can't possibly believe in this witch hunt.

If the enemy's within, that's where we fight him.

That sounds like Captain Marshall talking.

Then you're not looking closely enough. I think I am,

and I think the overwhelming feeling in this camp is fear.

Aah! Hey, Ben, you okay?

I'm fine. Those spikes are starting to heal the wound.

Let's hope so, huh?

You say you're not traitors,

and yet you hope that these...alien weapons

can heal your son.

You've already admitted that they've given him

some kind of special powers.

To use against the Espheni.

Since when does shooting the enemy with his own gun

make you a traitor?!

Do you think this is easy?!

My best friend was shot as a traitor!

It's not a dog's fault if it gets rabies.

But you still gotta put it down.

Well, Trevor, you have an impressive lab back there.

Test results show that your infection is gone.

I just need to check you out.

Show me your hands.

It's stethoscope. Back off.

I need you to take a couple deep breaths.

You okay?

We've been fighting as hard as anyone,

and to be held captive by our own people!

Anne, don't. You'll end up in front of the same firing squad

as your husband.

What? What did you say?

I thought you knew.

Ma'am, back to work, please. What the hell is going on here?

My husband is not a traitor! Ma'am, I will shoot you.

Anne, please.

Anne, you gotta keep a cool head.

How can I?

You saved my life. Let me save yours.

All right, first off, you gotta put down that scalpel.

It'll get you shot.

Listen to me. You asked how well I know the captain.

Well enough that I can talk to her.

Good. What does she need to hear?

Things that Tom and his sons have done.

Good.

Start writing. Okay.

I have quite the list.

Colonel, what the hell are we doing out here?

We don't have time for any...

Holy shit.

How'd you find this? Find it?

I killed it.

Yeah.

You killed it?

How?

Strangled it with my belt.

Turns out they actually do have a spine.

What were you even doing out here?

I was following your C.O., Katie Marshall.

She was meeting with this thing.

I don't understand. Captain Marshall?

Why would she meet with an overlord?

I don't know.

But I sure as hell am not gonna let her execute my friends

for a far lesser offense.

You're gonna confront her?

You know the captain as long as I have.

She's different.

What happened?

She's changed.

She's colder.

I hate to say it, but she's --

Paranoid. Yeah.

Let me ask you something.

If we were to bring this thing back into camp,

what would she do?

Storm the whole area. Smoke out more of the enemy.

That's what she should do.

Let's find out.

Gotta keep your wounds clean, bro.

We're gonna get out of this.

I know we will.

Hey, listen.

Everything about Maggie...
