Roswell (1999–2002): Season 2, Episode 13 - Disturbing Behavior - full transcript

Laurie breaks away from custody and reluctantly goes with Maria and Michael. They end up at her grandfather's house in Tucson where her aunt and uncle show her very little love. Meanwhile, Max enlists Liz's help to investigate the blue crystal that Michael found at Laurie's burial site. Valenti grows even more suspicious of Sorenson when he attacks Valenti in a momentary fit of rage. Valenti convinces FBI Agent Duff to investigate Sorenson further and she discovers an interesting pattern in his travel.

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.

Okay, that is freaky

- Yeah, that's pretty weird, huh?
- Pretty weird, huh?

Michael, have you ever even

thought of the possibility
that this guy more than just looks like you?

Like he is you. Like your donor.

Like your human side is him.

Which means in some weird

and twisted way,
that he and his relatives are like your family.

Like Laurie Dupree

Exactly



It figures.

I finally find a family member,
and she's a complete whack job.

Whoa.

What?

Someone's in Garrison's Hardware Store.

Maria,
we're supposed to be watching the sheriff's station

I think they're having sex!

Laurie.

if you help me find the man who did this,

I can stop him from hurting someone else
like he hurt you.

But you have to talk to me.

We've been at this for two days.

I'm sending you back to Pinecrest,
to your old room.

We'll have extra security
to make sure that you're safe.



Tell me everything you know
about who did this to you.

They're aliens.

Oh, no. ...

Oh, no. !

What? Laurie, what? What?
What? What is it?

They're back.

Who's back?

They're close. They're coming here.

Who's coming here?

I have to get out of here.

No! No! Hanson!

Aah! They're close.

Hanson!

Let me out of here!
No! No! You've got to let me go!

She's not actually
going to plug that thing in, is she?

Go, baby, go! Yeah!

Sick, man, this town is sick.

Michael, something's happening.

So just to put this out there,
I'm assuming that we're back together again?

I'm not going to get into
this relationship stuff right now.

You don't have to.
Actually, I'd prefer that you didn't say anything at all.

I'm just telling you that
if we're chasing down some crazy girl in the middle of the night,

the only reason that I'd do something so nuts

is because you and I were dating again.

- Whatever.
- I told you not to say anything.

What's going on back there?!?

Hey! Hey! Hey, lady. What are you doing?
What are you doing? Wait!

Hey, can you hear me?!
Are you guys all right?!

Easy! Easy! I'm not going to hurt you. We're here to help you!
- We're here to help--

Get down! Get down!

Maria, get in the car!

Now, you can come with us,
or you can stay here and get killed. Okay?

Come on, quick!
Get in the car! Get in the car!

{C:$aaccff}Roswell [2x13] Disturbing Behavior

"...Sources within the county hospital say
that the young girl, Laurie Dupree,

became agitated while the vehicle was in motion.

But what is not clear is how Laurie Dupree

released herself
from her protective restraints and somehow..."

Where are you?

I don't know.
We're about, uh, 30 miles west of Dexter.

The side mirror.
One hundred bucks, not including labor.

As you can see,
there's an abandoned stolen vehicle here.

Now, how that figures into this

developing story is still unclear.

- How is she?
- Who, Laurie?

She's completely crazy.

She tried to jump out of the car three times
while it was moving,

so I had to use my powers to lock her in.

She's basically like a caged animal.

Sun visor. Fifteen bucks,
including labor, of course.

At this hour,
a county-wide search for the missing girl is underway.

Here is a recent hospital photograph.

God. The whole state's going to be looking for her.
You can't come back to Roswell, Michael.

No, no, no, no, no.
Now--now you're hurting all of us.

We can use any information
we can get about the crystals.

- Try and get her talking.
- Oh, yeah. She's a real conversationalist.

Not the dash! Not the dash! That is a major deal to replace.
Do you see this?

What are you doing?

Hey, dad.

- Kyle, Tess.
- What are you doing?

- What's it look like?
- I'm not sure.

He's-- he's building something.

Right?

Give the girl a prize.
It's been a while since I had time to work on this.

The one thing I got plenty of now,
it's time.

Right.

Are you getting anywhere?

I think we're dealing with some kind of, uh,...

alien bacterium... or something.

Maybe you should ask your lab partner.

- She's the science whiz.
- I'm trying to keep Liz out of this right now.

So they're driving around aimlessly
with a fugitive in the car.

No, no, she's not a fugitive.
She's just...

- wanted by the law.
- Interesting distinction.

Anyway, they're going to be gone for a couple of days,
so we need to cover for them.

Who may be gone for a couple of days?

Uh, no one.

Sean,
we're sort of having a private conversation here, so...

Aunt Amy's flipping over M being AWOL.

Great! You want to translate that for,
you know, the people that haven't served time?

Where the hell's Maria?

oh, I-- I don't know.

Well, Aunt Amy's freaked out.
She wants to see you soon. Let's go.

um...I'm going to go over there with Sean

and, um, try
and keep that situation over there from getting out of hand.

- Yeah, good idea.
- Yeah, smart move.

?aNice top. I dig the midriff thing.

Yeah, shut up, please.

Laurie, I'm trying to help you, okay?

I mean, just tell me if you have any family.
How hard is that?

Come on! You can trust me!

I pulled you out of that ambulance.
I saved you from the kidnappers.

I mean, what else do I gotta do?

Michael!

That's it. Let's go. I'm hungry. Let's go.

- Go? Go where?
- To the roadside cafe.

It's the world's worst chili-cheese fries
in about 100 miles,

but best vanilla shakes in five.

The cops are looking for her, you know.

Listen, trust me,
even the cops give the roadside a wide berth.

It's strictly for us hard-core greasy spoon aficionados.

Miss Evans.

Agent Suzanne Duff, FBI.

Shouldn't my parents be here?

You're eighteen.
The law says you're an adult now.

Well, a lawyer, then.

Well, why would you need a lawyer?
You're not under arrest.

Let's just talk-- for a second.

Sheriff Valenti knew that Laurie Dupree was missing
before a missing person's report was filed.

How?
He won't say.

- He also knew how to find her buried underground
in the middle of nowhere.

How?

He won't say.

The only link
I seem to find is you and your brother.

You were seen
during the investigation a number of times with the sheriff.

I lost my bike that week.

Oh, I know. No, I heard.
And let's just say that I believe that.

That still doesn't explain

why you were at the crime scene with the sheriff.

Isabel.

what is the big secret,
and why can't I be let in on it?

I've already answered these questions for Deputy Hanson.

But you lied to him.

I'm not some local deputy working for a local sheriff.

I'm with the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

And if you lie to me,
you're in deep trouble, young lady.

What?

Sorry, Agent Duff.

Deputy Hanson, this is not the time--

Mr. Sorenson,
what--what can I do for you?

I found this in the woods this morning,
about a mile east of the crime scene.

Ah, the food that time forgot.

I'm assuming that anything
out of a can is a safe bet.

I have to go to the bathroom.

Fine. Maria.

-What?
- Go with her.

Are you crazy?

Have you ever seen that bathroom?
It's one stall and a door.

I'm sorry. No, thank you.

Well, if you don't, she's gonna book.

Isn't that right?

Okay, I'm sorry. I've had it.

I am not your mommy, and I'm not your doctor.

So there is no frickin' way
that I'm gonna go in the bathroom with you

and hold your hand while you potty.

We gotta establish a little trust, all right?

You trust us, we trust you.
Got it?

Look, all we're trying to do is help you escape the evil aliens
that wanna bury you in the woods, remember?

Is there anybody else out there in the big bad world
that's gonna do that for you, hmm?

No. See, I didn't think so.

So, look,

after you answer nature's call
in that toxic waste dump of a restroom,

you have the choice of either

a) rejoining us here at the table
with a different attitude for a nice, delicious meal,

or b) you can hoof it to the Mexican border.

It's about 150 miles thataway.

Can we get some service, or what, hmm?

Do you think that's gonna work?

Not a chance, but it doesn't matter.

The Mexican border's thataway.

I am certain Maria is fine.

Oh, she called. She went camping again.

Oh, see? I knew it.

Do you know what these are, Liz?

Long johns?

Maria's long johns.

Why would Maria leave her long johns

and all of her other winter gear at home
if she went camping in the middle of February?

Here's a theory from someone
who's had several hours to muse on it.

She didn't go camping. She lied to her mother,

just like she lied to me the other four times
she took off for days on end,

each time leaving out on the open road
another piece of her innocence, and my Jetta.

Liz, I consider you a friend...
and an extended member of this family,

and I value the friendship
you have with my daughter very much.

But if you don't tell me everything you know
about where the hell she is,

I'm gonna become very violent with you.

Mrs. Deluca, she's fine.

- She's with Michael.
- I knew it.

No. But they're just getting away, you know?
They're taking in the scenery.

Yeah, of a cheap motor inn.

Sean, shut up.

- All right, give me your phone.
- What?

Hand it over.

She shut her phone off,
but I'm sure she'll be turning it on to call you again.

And when she does,
I'll be here with you to receive that call.

You can sit down.
You're not going anywhere till I get my daughter back.

Laurie Dupree!

Fancy meetin' you out here.

So what's goin' on, huh?

- What's happening?
- You okay?

You know what?

Why don't you give those lips a rest
and let me have a word with spaceboy, okay?

you wanna get through to her?
You wanna make a connection here?

This is what you gotta do.
You gotta tell her the truth.

- Oh, forget it.
- Look, you wanna know

why you look like Grandpa 1935?

She has the key.
So, you have two choices, all right?

You can let her in on the whole alien conspiracy thing
and hope that it shakes

something loose from the dusty corners of her brain,
or you can...

No. You know what? That's not gonna work,
so look... You have that one option, all right?

No, no, no. What's my second option?

You're not capable of it, I promise.

Just say it.

Form an emotional bond with Laurie.

All right, fine. You don't like that answer,
then go show her the secret alien handshake.

Okay, fine. What kind of psychobabble,
Oprah crap do I gotta tell her?

I can't put the words in your mouth, Michael.

T It's gotta come from you.
It's gotta come from your--

it's gotta come from
whatever organ you have sitting in for your heart.

Just go over there
and tell her in your own words that she can trust you,

and make sure that she feels
that you're being completely, emotionally honest.

-Okay, fine.
- All right, you think you can handle it?

I'm not completely emotionally retarded.
I have feelings.

All right,then walk 'em over there and give 'em a workout.

Hey, dad.

I shouldn't be concerned here, should I?

I mean,
you're not building a guillotine or something?

I'm not that far off, though, am I?

You're killing yourself here.

I'm doing a little woodwork,
that's all. Okay?

What are you making?

- Baseball bat.
- Baseball bat.

Give you one... when I'm done.

Always wanted you to have a handmade bat.

Thought about it
when you were in Little League.

I'm, uh...
I'm in kind of a dark place here, Kyle.

This is gonna take me a little
while to work my way out of it. Okay?

All right.

Tess and I...

we're still here.
We're just trying to make ends meet, keep our heads above water.

Well, if this lawsuit doesn't go away,
we'll be in that dark place with you.

Look, Laurie,
I know a lot of people think you're pretty crazy.

But the truth is,knowing everything

you've been through,
you seem pretty normal to me.

I just want you to know that
whatever you are to me-- a sister,

a cousin, whatever--

you're the only family I've ever known,
and I just found you.

I don't want to let you go.

I know you're scared to death of me,

but... if you could find some way to trust me...

I mean, I got all kinds of faults.

And this one over here,
you know she can list them off for you if you want later on, but...

the one thing I am is loyal.
I will not turn my back on you.

That's all I got to say. I don't know.

You're not my Grandpa, are you?

No

No. But I'd like to meet him.

Tucson.

Grandpa's in Tucson, Arizona.

What? Push the but-
Uh, hello?

That's right. This is your mother.
I confiscated Liz's phone. Where are you?

I-I'm still in New Mexico, Mom.

Oh, that's cute. Where are you?

On our way to Arizona.

Why?

We're--we're being free spirits, mom.

That means you're going to Sedona to get stoned
and have sex in the hills?

Mom!

Do you think I wasn't seventeen once?

Do you think I didn't do crazy, stupid things

with a really bad boy when I was your age?

Yes, I know you did, Mom -- Dad.

- Let me talk to him.
- No. Why?

Put him on the phone now!

She wants to talk to you.
What? No! Get it-- are you cra--

Hey, Mrs. DeLuca.

Michael,
want you to listen to me very, very carefully.

On this glorious, rebellious, lost weekend of yours,
you will take care of my daughter.

You will protect her and be kind to her,
and she will have fun.

You will not get matching tattoos,

and you will not allow her to
pierce any part of her body

that cannot be shown in polite company.

And, Michael, if you have sex with my daughter,
I will hunt you down and kill you like the mangy dog you are.

- Okay?
- Okay.

Call me if you need bail money.

What'd she say?

she wants you to have fun.

Shut this off.

- I think you should call the police.
- Sean.

I'm just thinkin' about Maria.
I don't want anything to happen to her.

Michael will take care of her, Mrs. Deluca.

Oh... I don't know.
Guerin's a mighty shady character.

Oh...Look who's talking.

Me?

I'm not shady.
I'm, uh... I'm misunderstood.

Stop, Sean.

What's the matter,

can't handle it, Parker?
- Sean, stop it.

- No.
- Yes. .

Sean... I'm not kidding. Stop.

- No.
- Sean! Stop!

Okay, okay! I need a drink here.
Sit down. Please behave yourselves.

Sean! Get-- yeah! Stay down!

Uh...Hi, Max.

Hi. Uh... is... is Liz here?

You're not planning to
take her across state lines, are you?

No.

Then, yeah... she's here.

Come on! Stop it! Please get off of me.
Get off of-- Sean, get off. Get off!

Will you please get off of me! Sean--

what? What?

Max! Um...

What are you doing here? Is something wrong?
Stop.

I...I need your help with something.
Science homework.

Okay.

I'm gonna go get my bag

Bye, Liz. Good to see you again.

Bye, Sean. You, too.

Sorenson?

Hey, listen, I, uh...

I came out here to see
if we could settle this thing.

I admit I kinda stepped over the line with you,
but...

It doesn't give you the right to try to destroy my family.

Hey.

You could do me the courtesy of turnin' around.

Don't hit me.

Sheriff, stop!

What the hell you doin?!?

I just got a call that you attacked Sorenson again.

What is it, woodshop got you frustrated?

I want you
to put Grant Sorenson under surveillance.

Thanks for your suggestion,
but maybe you're forgetting you're no longer sheriff.

He's the one you're looking for.
He's the kidnapper.

Does this have anything to do
with his $15 million lawsuit?

This is the gun
that was used to fire the bullets at you, Max and Isabel.

Sorenson found it out at one of his digs
and he brought it to me.

Sheriff, if he is a kidnapper,
why would he be trying to help me solve this case?

All right... I went to Sorenson
to try to settle our differences, okay?

When I approached him, he didn't recognize me.

It was like he'd never seen me before.

Suddenly, he lunged at me,
and one minute later, he's his old self again.

Now, I don't know.

Now, I don't know.
Maybe... Maybe he's guilty and he's innocent.

A split personality?

Grant Sorenson may have turned in the rifle,

but I'm telling you...
the person that jumped me earlier today is the one who fired it.

Well, that's an interesting theory, sheriff,

but the problem is, right now you appear
to be the one with the split personality.

It looks like they're
... alien versions of negleria filarae.

Waterborne parasites
found in the blood cells of certain species of fish.

Parasites?

Well,
that implies they need something to feed on...

like an arm

Maybe, but you said that they didn't affect you.

No. I got the feeling
I didn't taste good or something.

Then they didn't react
when sheriff Valenti picked them up?

No

Sounds like they're not
interested in terrestrial organisms.

Well, except Laurie.
They formed on her grave site.

So, maybe there's something unique about her,
something the parasites are looking for.

Or there could be something unique about her grave site.
It's in Frazier Woods, right?

Right.

Isabel. Hi. It's Liz.

We need you to do something.

I got your message. What's up?

I wanted to talk to you.

I hope this isn't about my lawsuit again,
'cause that lunatic sheriff just attacked me.

No. It has nothing to do with that.

Then why are we here?
I thought you told me it was over between us.

Look, Grant... things just got so complicated,

and I guess I just wish that we could
go back to the beginning. As if we just met.

Isabel Evans.

Grant Sorenson.

What do you do, Mr. Sorenson?

Grant, please. I'm a geologist.

A geologist. Fascinating.

- Oh, I'm glad you think so.

Well, I want to hear all about it.
What would you like to know?

- What are you working on right now?
- I'm doing a survey out in Frazier Woods.

Really? Tell me...

What's so special about Frazier Woods?

Grandpa's done pretty well for himself.

You okay?

I'm nervous.

I haven't seen my grandfather for so long.

Can I help you?

Yeah. We're here to see charles Dupree.

Who are you?

I'm Michael, this is Maria,
and this is Mr. Dupree's granddaughter, Laurie.

Hi.

Laurie. Is it really you, Laurie?

Where's grandpa?

Oh, my God.

Bobby, you do remember that
we have that function later this afternoon, don't you?

I mean, really, you can't be trotting around the polo grounds
for the whole afternoon and expect me to do all--

who are-- what is it?

Aunt Mary,
I want to see my grandfather right now.

He's dead, Laurie--

he's been dead for seven years.

You were at his funeral,
for God sakes.

Spooky.
I mean, it's just spooky.

Oh. Typical is more like it.
Daddy always did have that wandering eye.

Looks like he just wandered off the marital reservation
and left us all a little surprise, hmm?

Well, I love surprises.

Carmen!

Would you draw a bath
and get Miss Laurie's room ready?

Go on, Laurie.

Why don't you go upstairs?

It's okay.
I'm not goin' anywhere.

And, uh, what is it you want, Mr...

Guerin.
Michael Guerin.

Look. Your daughter's been--

Niece. She's our niece, Mr. Guerin.

Well. Your niece has been through a pretty traumatic experience.
Somebody kidnapped her.

They buried her in the ground,
and we think that he's still after her.

Oh, well, that's quite a story.

Why don't Laurie's hospital records
list you as the next of kin?

What hospital?

The Pinecrest Psychiatric Institute.
Brownfield, Texas

Where Laurie's been living for the past,\ I don't know,

- what... three... three years?
- Oh, well, we haven't seen our niece in years.

So someone finally put her away, hmm?

Did the aliens chase her there, too?

You know,
aliens are chasing our family, Mr. Guerin.

Don't stay too long. They might get you, too.

So he has about
fifty experiments going on in Frazier Woods,

all of which he explained to me in excruciating detail,

but the common thread through each one is the water table.

- What about it?
- The woods are unusual

because the water's so close to the surface.

In some places,
it's less than three feet below ground.

You know, if the parasites really are waterborne--
and that's just a theory--they might be in the water table.

Yeah, but how would alien parasites
get in the water table in the first place?

Okay. Uh, this is a map of the water table
for the entire county.

It looks like a bunch of, uh, rivers.
- Yeah, that's basically it.

The water flows from one area to another through,

uh, a system of underground rivers and streams...

Frazier Woods.

So the stream passes right underneath the grave site.

Let's see the rest of that stream.

- Oh, my God.
- What?

Do you know what that is?
That's Pohlman Ranch.

The crash site.

Yeah. The stream passes right beneath it.

That means that the parasites
might have been on our ship.

Somebody kidnaps a girl
and buries her in the ground so a bunch of alien parasites can...

I mean, can do what to her we don't know, and...

and then how does he know about these parasites?

Is he human, or is he alien?

Are these things dangerous to normal people in roswell?

- Okay. Where do we go from here, Max?
- I have absolutely no idea.

We need help.
I wish you guys could just phone home.
Wouldn't that be nice?

Max, could you-- oh. Hello.

Sorry. We were just, uh,
using some of the equipment for a--a science project.

- I hope you don't mind.
- Oh, of course not.

- can you let me know when you're done?
- We won't be long.

Max, didn't you say
that there was an alien at the summit

that reached out with his mind
and possessed Brody's body?

Right.

What if that connection goes both ways?

What if we can send a signal back through Brody?

That rifle was reported
stolen by a hunter in Newcastle, Wyoming, in July,

and the oxygen tanks used to keep the girl alive

were stolen from a hospice in Fort Collins, Colorado, in August.

And the plastic box around her head

was taken from an industrial supply warehouse
in Las Cruces in September.

And?

This is Grant Sorenson's work itinerary.

He was in all those places
at the times those items were reported stolen.

Chalk up another one for the woodworking detective.

Look, you seem to know more about this than anyone--

why, I'm not sure--

but I need to settle this case,
and you want to be sheriff again.

You help me close this one,
and I will make it my business to get you your job back.

I guess the bats can wait.

I don't like it.

What, the tile?

No.
The fact that we haven't seen Laurie in three hours.

This can't be good.

This is yours.

- What's this?
- $50,000.

- What?
-And that's all you're going to get.

You may look like our father,

but we'll fight any further paternity
and inheritance claims every step of the way.

I'm not here to make an inheritance claim.

Wait. How big of an inheritance claim
are you talking about here?

Please escort Mr. Guerin
and his friend off the property.

CzekajNo. Wait. Wait a minute. What about Laurie?

- We'll take care of her now.
- Hey. No. You don't understand.

There are people after her.

Oh, right. The aliens.
Well, we'll keep on the lookout for 'em.

You can't do this!

Now what?

I don't know...

But I promised Laurie I'd protect her,
and that's exactly what I'm gonna do.

I've been put under hypnosis before.

It's never helped me remember anything
about my experiences.

This would be different.
I have a gift.

I'm a little psychic.

Come on...

You believe in aliens,
but you don't believe in psychic phenomena?

I was abducted by aliens.
I know they exist.

I know my gift exists.

Aren't you at least curious?

Okay. So what do we do?

Okay. Relax.

Close your eyes and clear your mind.

Give me your hand.

This won't hurt.

I just want to warn you,

the last time I was put through this,
I was a very difficult subject.

I just don't want you to be too disappointed when--

Isabel!

You shouldn't have done that.

Brody?

Larek.

This body has not been prepared for communication.

Its heart has stopped.

It may restart once I've released him.

- What is it you want?
- We need your help.

We think that some form of a--

a parasite was released into
our earth's ecosystem

when our ship crashed fifty years ago.
We think they're dangerous--

When you say parasite,

do you mean the gandarium
from your ship have escaped into the ecosystem?

I don't know.
It looks like blue crystals.

Earth is in serious trouble.
You must leave now.

What are you talking about?

Earth has become infected.
You're no longer safe there.

Get off the planet now.

No, Max.

What happened?

You fainted.

I'm so sorry. I had no idea.
I'm so sorry.

- You sure you're all right?
- I think so.
