V

Previously on "V"... Dad asked if I could stay with him.

It's time that we told him the truth

About who he really is. I think Tyler's ready.

But he's still not here on the ship with you. Get him.

Lisa. I missed you.

I'm pregnant.

You need to tell her the truth before she finds out.

John May started the Fifth Column.

The first group of visitors to ever turn

against the leadership. Anna's birthing soldiers.

you need to stop 'em. The visitors took everything I had.

I don't want that to happen to you.

Georgie. Long live The Fifth Column!

Dad, I heard something outside,

and I think I saw a U.F.O.

There's no such thing as U.F.O.s, buddy.

Go back to bed. But I... but I... but...

That's okay. Go on. I love you, James.

...With full respect for the freely expressed...

They're here for me.

Tell the others I'm going dark.

ah!

Did you really think Anna wouldn't find out

you turned against us?

How could you do this to your own kind,

start a resistance?

These people are worth saving.

No. It's your human skin.

You've been wearing it too long.

You got confused. You're sick.

Bliss is a sickness.

It's mind control.

Human emotion... it's... it's not sickness. It's beautiful.

Human emotion?

You betrayed us for human emotion?

Yeah.

You may as well kill me now

'cause I will never stop hunting you.

One day you'll understand.

You can't escape, John May!

You can't escape!

Can someone please lay out for me who the hell that guy is?

John May was the first V to turn against Anna.

He started the resistance.

I was with him just before he disappeared.

You knew him. Ryan, why didn't you say?

Because no one needed to know until now.

Look, the bottom line is

we are not leaving Georgie up there to die.

The only reason he's on that ship is

because he tried to save me. I gotta get back on the ship.

But how? It'll be impossible now.

We'll do it. We'll figure it out.

How much does he know... about who you are, where you are?

Who your loved ones are? I'm not saying he'll talk cause he's a coward.

I'm saying, everyone has a breaking point.

Everyone talks.

No, not Georgie. He'll hold on till we get him.

Which as you compadre here just spelled out, is impossible.

We may not be able to get back on that ship,

but there may be another way to save him. How?

Joshua, the one who helped me

embed the "John May lives" message. He's Fifth Column.

Said there's a way to contact them, some sort of comms device.

It's encrypted and the tech's outdated,

So the V's don't monitor for it anymore.

If we can get our hands on that...

We can coordinate a rescue plan

with The Fifth Column aboard the ship. Good.

First sensible thing anyone's said, and it's the blonde.

Where's the device?

Upstate. Town called Reedsville.

Belonged to John May. But there's someone else.

His stepson.

He might be able to lead us to that device.

Great. Let's go.

The human managed to fight off the effects of the memory chamber.

We've been unable to retrieve any useful information

about who helped him embed the message in our broadcast.

He won't give names.

Impress upon him more strongly

that he has no choice in the matter.

I've already sent for the human pain expert from the Tokyo ship.

Your pregnancy...

You should be resting.

There's no time for that.

I need to make sure

the "live aboard" program stays on track.

There are whispers of an anti-V terrorist group.

Polls show people have grown apprehensive

about coming to live on the ship,

which will affect the success of our "live aboard" program.

Get Chad Decker

I'll address the people directly.

I want those bodies on this ship.

Uh, um...

Hi.

Hello. (chuckles)

You are?

Lisa, Tyler's friend. Ah.

It's nice to meet you, Mr. Evans.

Hi. Um...

Tyler's mom didn't... mention anything about you coming.

Did, uh, Tyler invite you?

Actually no. I just thought I'd check in on him.

Why does he need you to check in?

He didn't. I just thought he could use the support.

It's just, um,

this situation's been a little hard, right?

I mean, since you left?

Have you had breakfast yet?

Um, oh, I'm sorry. Wait... wait a minute.

What did he say, exactly?

He hasn't said anything bad about you, Mr. Evans.

So you guys, uh, met.

Huh.

Don't worry, dad. I slept on the couch.

I swear. Um, Lisa showed up late last night,

and... (chuckles) kind of surprised me.

Huh. S-surprised me, too.

could you...

come here, please?

um, listen,

I know you wanted to spend some time with me,

but is it... is it okay if she hangs with us?

Dad...

I really like her.

Of course.

Thanks.

This is Chad Decker for WNT,

bringing you an exclusive interview

with the V high commander Anna.

It's good to see you again.

Thank you, Chad.

I know there have been rumors about the messages

sent from our ships during my announcement last night.

Yes. "John May lives"...

Can you tell us what that means?

I wish I could, Chad.

It appears it was merely a glitch in our system,

an overlay of old code from our language training program

used to learn the English language.

What's of greater interest to me

are the things that are going right.

People are so excited about the "live aboard" program.

It will give us a chance, before we leave,

to reciprocate the hospitality you have shown us.

Later today, you will join me as sit down

With some of the invitees to answer their questions.

I can assure you, those joining us

Will be treated with the utmost care and respect.

This is the last time we're going to ask.

What are the names of your co-conspirators?

Oh, you want names?

Evelyn, my wife.

There's a name.

We were 2 months shy of our 12th anniversary.

Here's two more... Brian and Evan,

my 2 boys, 6 and 8.

You freaks killed them, too.

Our doctors will assure that you will receive

the best medical attention we can provide.

I'm Dr. Maita.

Let me explain to you how the scours operate.

It's a curious little creature.

It likes to explore every inch of the human body,

from the inside.

Its preference is to travel along the nerve lines.

The scour enters near the face...

and exits via the soft tissue,

usually through the reproductive organs.

And remember,

we are of peace, always.

♪ V 1x07 ♪ John May original air date on April 13, 2010

After the John May message,

We anticipate resistance members will come out of hiding.

As sleeper agents embedded in key positions,

you need to be ready.

Each of you has one of these in your possession.

If you notice any suspicious activity...

An assistance will be deployed to your location.

Dismissed.

stop.

Please.

I'll give you the names you want.

Pull over here. This is John May's place.

Does he know his stepfather was a V?

No, May wanted to protect his family.

Told 'em nothing.

Just a second, guys.

Yeah. You know, you could have told me

that the girlfriend was part of the package.

What are you talking about?

She's there? Lisa? Yes.

She showed up last night.

I mean, what is the deal with her?

She seems to know all our dirty laundry.

She's a peace ambassador with Tyler.

Joe, I'm sorry. I can't get into this right now.

Erica, I'm having a real hard time with this.
