Previously on V...

We will not betray you. We are of peace. Always.

I'm pleased the baby survived.

The mother however, did not.

You killed her, didn't you?

Ryan Nichols has returned to earth.

What makes you sure you can control him this time?

We have his child.

At some point, Ryan's gonna have to make a choice, his daughter or us.

Joshua, do you remember anything?

I remember nothing.

Hello, mother.

15 years.

15 years and not a single glimpse of you,

not since you put me down here.

I had no choice.

Your human skin was infecting you with emotion,

weakening you.

So you had to seize power from me before your time,

tell everyone I was dead,

bury me down here like a dirty little secret.

I did what I felt I had to do to protect our species.

I never imagined that it would take so long.

Take so long for what?

For you to admit that you felt human emotion.

Don't be ridiculous.

Then why are you here?

Scientific curiosity.

Our top medical officers continue to work

on isolating and eradicating human emotion.

To no avail.

You've lived in your human skin twice as long as I have.

You've been down here stewing in emotion all this time.

And you want to know what I've learned, don't you?

When the humans set off the first atomic bomb,

it shone across the universe like a brilliant flare.

Another potential home world for our species.

So I came here and moved secretly among these people,

to see if interbreeding was possible.

But then I realized

that it would never work here.

If you proceed with interbreeding.

You will have a generation of V's

who listen to their emotions, follow their hearts,

and refuse to bow to their queen.

I will have human emotion under control

before interbreeding takes place.

My plan will still take hold.

Lisa's just entering her cycle of fertility.

So all rests on Lisa's shoulders?

You're infertile.

She is the only one able to lay eggs,

but she cannot do it here on earth.

I will make it work here.

The next viable planet is too far away, isn't it?

It's earth or nothing.

Hey, Lisa.

Joshua's alive.

They managed to heal him before he died.

Oh, my God.

Anna has him.

Has she gotten any names out of him?

Not yet. He... he claims he doesn't remember anything

about killing the soldier eggs.

He doesn't even remember being in Fifth Column.

I can't tell if it's an act to protect us or...

You have to find out what he remembers...

our names, our... our faces... and...

I need you to find out from him

if he remembers

any experimentation done on pregnant women

as long as 18, 20 years ago.

You were pregnant then.

Yeah.

What does that mean about you?

Tyler?

Hey, hon.

Hey.

I missed you, so I came to see you.

Hey. Nice look, Ty.

Yeah, I cut myself shaving.

Well, you gotta stop using that bowie knife.

- You wanna go? - Sure.

- Bye. Have fun. Bye.

I need you to analyze this blood sample.

Whoa. Don't you people ever just say "hello"?

I'm sorry, Sid. I am very glad that you're on board.

You are an excellent resource.

Soldiers are studly. Scientists are resources.

I need to find out what they did to me, my son.

You said that if you had blood samples,

you could figure out if they messed with Tyler in utero.

You have mine. Please take his.

Are you sure you wanna go down this path?

If it were your kid,

what would you do?

Thank you.

There is no greater loss than a parent losing a child.

Let the grace of God fall on Valerie Stevens... (Sobbing)

Her beloved parents,

and her unborn baby.

Mr. and Mrs. Stevens...

You did this to her. You did it.

She had a heart condition.

She should never have gotten pregnant.

She should never have had to go to the V's and their healing centers.

I thought with their technology that that would be best.

Look at you. You're not even crying.

Don't you have a heart?

Don't you have a soul?

I'm sorry for your loss.

Go! Just go.

Ryan Nichols?

Anna wanted you to have this...

To see your daughter.

With Anna revealing red sky to be a gift to humans,

by and large, the visitors are once again

being embraced the world over.

Healing centers reopen this morning from Delhi to Nairobi.

And as this line of participants in Manhattan attest,

people are once again eager to take advantage

of all that Anna and the visitors have to answer.

You're watching WNT. I'm Chad Decker. We'll be right back.

A moment, Mr. Decker?

- I'd like you to meet Eileen Rounick. - Hello.

She will be the first mother to have her baby

delivered entirely with v technology.

I thought you might like to interview her to underscore

the good works we hope to continue here on earth.

Happy to.

It's nice to meet you, Eileen.

Oh. It's pretty cool to see you in person.

I mean, I watch you all the time.

30 seconds, Chad.

So this is incredibly brave of you.

Brave?

Yeah. I've... I've interviewed a few moms-to-be

about having their babies born in there,

and... and no matter how good the technology is,

they're still new to this, to... to human childbirth.

So if something goes wrong...

Well, these moms just didn't wanna risk

their babies being the first, you know?

- Really? Chad, we're just about ready.

Yeah. Here you go. All right.

I mean, you know some moms.

There's just no talking to them

when their kid's safety's at stake.

Yeah. Five, four, three...

Forgive me, father, for I have sinned.

I remember you, my son.

You stopped coming to services.

Did you lose your faith?

Yes.

With the V's here,

I didn't know what to think, like so many others.

And the red sky came...

And I wanted answers.

And then I...

Heard your sermons again, father,

on the Internet.

And I found the answers I was seeking.

I'm pleased my words had an impact on you.

You said that it was a war for our souls,

us versus the V's.

I want to be sure, father,

that this is the right thing to do.

I believe in my heart that the answer is "yes."

It's time to fight.

Then that gives me great peace.

Look! He's got a bomb!

(Helicopter whirring, indistinct conversations)

At 3:00 Greenwich Mean Time,

suicide bombers hit healing and peace ambassador centers on six continents.

An international terrorist network.

Hundreds of dead worldwide,

17 here, including the bomber, who's an unknown male.

We managed to pull this off a surveillance camera.

Resolution's for crap,

- but at least it gives us an area code. - And the body?

Well, head and limbs are pretty much blown off,

- but we recovered half the torso. - Oh, lucky day.

They're attacking humans.

It doesn't really fit the Fifth Column M.O.

- They're anti-V, not antihuman. - Well, the e-mail they sent

claiming credit for the explosion

features a nice little doctrine outlining their aims.

They think red sky was the first volley

in a battle against humanity,
