Roswell, New Mexico (2019–…): Season 4, Episode 1 - Steal My Sunshine - full transcript
Previously on
Roswell, New Mexico...
Why do you look like me?
He's the savior,
and I'm the clone.
You're wondering if
I called a vessel
and those ready to navigate
once they reawaken.
I think you're bluffing.
I told you I'd get you
to untangle me from Max.
You will be,
on my terms.
And then we're gonna kill you.
So, um, did E.T. phone home?
I believe she's one
of the sky people
that you talk about.
She keeps repeating
"Liz Ortecho."
How the hell do you
know who Liz Ortecho is?
Is someone there?
'Cause I'm armed.
So am I.
Almost there.
Just a little bit more.
Yes!
What do you think?
Change was never my
strong suit, but...
I know it breaks with
your John Wayne vibe,
but not every room can have
a longhorn skull in it.
What?
I was just thinking
back to six months ago.
We were laying in
your little, tiny bed.
We just beat Jones, I
asked you to move in.
And here you are in my arms,
Old Yellering my couch.
We can keep this couch
as long as you promise
to keep living here.
Now that we have a 12-month
finance plan on furniture,
you're never getting rid of me.
We got to at least
sit... sit on it first.
Oh.
Quickie? I'm looking
for a longie.
And in a few minutes,
my GED class is going
to be looking for their teacher.
Based on week
seven's quiz results,
we're going to do a refresh
on the Leidenfrost Effect.
But with the time left today,
I thought we would go
over the experiment
we're putting up on its
feet this afternoon.
All right.
This is potassium nitrate.
This is common table sugar.
Apart... nada.
But together...
Oh.
Not only is this
the chemical combo
in the rockets we're
launching today,
it also demonstrates
my larger point.
Getting your GED is just one
piece of your life equation.
You got to find the
right mix that...
That can burn down the apartment
your family can barely cover.
Life's an experiment, Vanessa.
There are no
guaranteed outcomes.
Look, I get it, all right?
Sometimes it's hard to believe
there's gonna be a spark when
it all just seems to fizzle.
Or it all blows up in your face.
Well,
that's why people
invented goggles.
Which we are all going to need
at... Bar-mageddon!
Roswell's Annual Rocket Launch
and Food and Drink festival.
Oh. Okay.
Everybody, grab your Team
Liz shirts on the way out.
And we will meet at Arturo's
churro stand no later
than 4:00 p.m. with
your model rockets.
Hey, I get it.
Okay? When I was your
age, I felt the same way.
So, I thought I'd give you
something that helped me
with all the fizzles and
unintentional explosions.
My mentor, Allie Meyers...
She always says, "Everything is
theoretically impossible
until you make it a reality."
Read chapter one, and we'll
talk about it at the launch.
Bar-mageddon's not
on the syllabus,
so I'm taking the
theoretical of attending
and making it a
reality that I'm not.
Here we go! Pull!
And this puts me in the lead.
Mm. I see you've been working
on your ability to
manipulate water.
I mean, why be half
an alien, right?
Oh, right, right.
When you can fully
commit to cheating.
That sounds like a bit of sore
talk from a man that's mad
that I just, uh, tied up
our little alien game.
Perhaps around eight, we'll
decide which is better?
Perhaps you're just stalling
on the big move now.
So why don't you just go ahead,
give me the keys to
the trailer, Guerin?
Get going.
Fine.
But I got to show you this
finicky electrical hook-up.Okay.
Now you are definitely stalling.
:
Please, Guerin. Come on.
Keys.
Okay.
Today's the big day.
One last dose.
So you're sure the
degeneration has stopped?
Bring up DeLuca's scan sequence
two months back to current.
As you can see, ever
since we've started
with the first serum treatment,
the degeneration has slowed.
Enhance last three weeks.
You can see after dose two
that the dark spots have
remained consistent.
Meaning...
you and Liz cured me.
Oh, wait. No.
No, I didn't want to miss
the part where we hugged.
Oh, well, it's-it's
a bit premature.
One last dose to go,
unless there's any, uh,
side effects to report.
No. My tarot card side hustle
has been nosebleed-free
for quite some time.
Okay, just one last shot.
And then the hug.
Thank you, guys.
Everybody deserves
a little happiness.
Kyle and I are just glad
we could help with yours.
All right.
One question remains.
Which alien-themed
Band-Aid you gonna go with?
Mm.Oh, that's me.
That is a Santa Fe brewer
who offered me exclusive rights
to their new beer
at Bar-mageddon.
I got to go.Oh.
Eeny, meeny, miny,
moe. Good one.
All right.Mm.
Got some new genomics software
you might like to test drive.
Or maybe we can see what else
us interstellar internists can
discover by examining Jones?
As appealing as
an autopsy sounds,
I am exhausted
with alien endeavors.
I just want to be a girl
from Roswell a little longer.
And I am hopeful, now
that we've cured Maria,
to see you around more.
Before you walk away with
this order of Saturn's Rings,
I need to say something.
You are a good man.
And I know Liz seems
happy living with you.
But...
if you hurt her, the machete
is right there in the kitchen.
Copy you.
Okay, so, a couple things. The
light switch right there...
It weirdly works the
room around the hall.
Uh, the garbage disposal
is iffy, and, uh...
Coffee table is where
you fold the clothes?
No, I took those
out of my closet
so that you could choose
which side you want.
Okay, so,
now everything here is yours,
except for the level
three clearance laptops,
um, and the sat link
phone and the hard drives.
And the, uh, project X
under the tarp, I assume?
Um...
Well, actually, now
that we live together,
you get to see some
of my secret shame.
Oh.
I know what the Men
in Black stuff is,
but what am I... what am
I looking at here, Manes?
Okay, when I was
growing up, my mom knew
that I was struggling
with who I was, so,
she convinced me to help her
build this model of the gazebo,
my ideal Roswell.
I've, uh... I've never
shown this to anybody, so,
since we are blending
our lives further,
I wanted to show it to you.
So now everything here,
including my weird coping
mechanism, is, uh, is yours.Hmm.
Everything?
Even this button?
Face life head-on.
That is the philosophy
here at Woman As Warrior.
Together, we form a safety net
so that each of us can
walk out on the wire
and confront our literal
and metaphorical demons.
That's it for today.
Thank you so much.
Let me guess.
You're here for a
self-defense lesson?
Tell me, Director Evans,
can I pay with this?
Okay.
I see we're talking lay-away?
A quick one,
as I have a meeting
with my editor.
But before I go, I wanted to say
I'm so proud of what
you're doing here.
I love how much you've grown,
I love how strong
you are, and...
I love you.
Hey, I'm gonna have to
meet you at Max's, okay?
I got to run by Deep Sky
to work on my project.
You mean Operation Hot Latex?
I know that studying weather
balloons doesn't sound
like it's saving the world,
but its research harbors some
pretty cutting-edge stuff.
Mm, and did Eduardo
ever tell you why
he put you on the assignment?
Well, I mean he's not exactly
forthcoming with his requests,
but I got to imagine that, uh,
there's a good reason for it.
Make yourself at home, okay?
It is yours, after all.
Bye.
No, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Uh, yes. Thank you.Okay.
Hi.
Wait. Come back here.
This is for you, too.
Mmm. All right, we're good.
Hey. Oh, hey, good to see you.
Oh, shoot. Thank
you.Mmm. Thank you.
Digging the haircut.
Oh, thank you.
Uh, I dig that barber
shop that you sent me to.
Mm.
And, um, I think I'm
ready to make my move.
Are you sure you want to do
this right here, right now?
I got an hour left on my turn,
and I think I've got you beat.
You do know that
I see the future,
and the future shows me
exactly what you're gonna do.
Yeah, well, I read prayers,
and I'm pretty sure
your last Hail Mary was,
"Don't move my bishop
to D-6."
Hmm.
It's dry rub for ribs,
low and slow for chicken.
Hey, you should try Space
Jam in Barbecue sauce.
It'll change your
life. Back me up here.
I am not getting in
the middle of a debate
on who knows more about
meat... Cowboy or...
Oh, no, no, no, no.
It's Hatch Day, Ortecho.
Please, can we keep it PG-13?
You okay?
Yeah, I'm good. I'm
good. I'm great.
Yeah, maybe could, uh,
you know, maybe just use
another one of
your Hatch-a-ritas.
Okay, cowboy.
So, uh, you guys just getting
over a fight or something?
No. In fact, uh, the
biggest fight we've had
since she moved in
was, uh, getting dishes
that actually match.Huh.
Um, how did you...?
Your meat thermometer...
It's blinking
on pace with your
nerves right now.
Do you think she'll say "no"?
Oh, buddy.
She will say "yes," but
Liz doesn't strike me
as the ask-me-
a-life-changing-question
in-front-of-my-friends
type of girl, right?
So...
what's the back-up plan?
Oh.
Elizabeth. Hi!
Wow. Congratulations
on this stellar fiesta.
The banner is on point.
Oh, my God, look.
You've carved a
little, uh, Hatch chili
into an alien as a
garnish. The thing is,
all of this has to go.
What's happening?
Anatsa is coming.
Oh, we're-we're having an
"alien in the know party,"
and she's not in the know.
Mm.Okay, okay, okay,
so, how did this happen?
Well, um, she told
me she loved me.
And then I panicked.
And next thing I know, she's
bringing a potato salad.
Does this mean you said it back?
No, I did not.
I-I was too busy wondering
if saying it back means
saying... Right.
Everything else?
Look, Anatsa is great.Yeah.
Okay, so maybe just see
where your feelings go
before you fill her in on
the part about being...
Hatched.
Oh, my God.
Whoa. Okay.
When you say asinine things
like that, it makes me question
whether you and I took the
same tests at Quantico.
Okay? Go get me facts.
Yes, ma'am.
Well, that was one part
of being your partner
I certainly don't miss.
FBI looks good on
you, Agent Cameron.
Well, I did all this just so
I could outrank you, Evans.
I, uh... I hear you
leveled up to sheriff.
Interim sheriff. Well,
as much as I wish
this was a good old-fashioned
laugh and get lit,
I've called you to help solve
this odd little bank job.
Me? Why?
'Cause I think you and I
might be the only people
who can crack this case.
I think this heist was
committed by aliens.
Hell of a party trick
to pull all these boxes
free from their slots.
Well, it's unusual,
but I'm not exactly seeing
a flying saucer in here.
Lock on the cage was opened
with ease, no sign of force.
So you're looking
for Danny Ocean.
Danny Ocean doesn't
smell like rain.
It smells like mold. You
got something more pressing
than knocking this
around further?
I... I did not know
a civil servant could
afford a rock that size.
It's Liz's abuela'sring.
Oh.
Well, Granny Ortecho's
fingers were a bit sausagey.
Should I resize it?
Yes.
And before you enact whatever
sappy proposal you have planned.
You go deal with that.
I will stay here
and deal with this.
But you owe me tequila
if the robbers turn out
to be of the pod variety.
Don't tell me you've
already retreated to the garage
like y'all are some
old married couple.
Ooh, I am all bantered
out today, Max.
So, what do you
want to talk about?
Yeah, yeah, I was hoping
to get that resized
to match one of her others.
I got to ask you something.
How did you know it
was the right time?
Well, we've been living
together for five months,
and things are just
about as perfect
as they could possibly be.
So you're not worried
a proposal's gonna
screw it all up?
I mean, there's the usual
nerves, I guess, but...
no, it feels right.
Wait. Is this about
you being all Michael
about moving in with Alex?
No.
Maybe.
Whenever I stayed at your home
as a kid, it never felt right.
I felt feral, undomesticated.
So even if I want
to make it work,
doesn't mean it will.
That sounds like classic
Guerin self-sabotage.
Or maybe I'm reading the signs,
and it's not the right time.
And if it isn't, no matter
how much one person wants it,
it won't end well.
All right, well,
only you can know
if you and Alex are
on the right path.
For me and Liz, I know
we are ready to take
the next step in ours.
Hey. Thanks for meeting me.
I'm sorry I had to run out
on the Hatch Day barbecue.
It's okay. Since
it is Hatch Day...
Is this nostalgic backwards cap
Evans I'm meeting at the park?
Well, it's just, the day kind of
got me thinking about my journey
and about our journey,
and you know, I mean,
this town has so
much history for us.
You know, and this spot in
particular has so many chapters.
I guess what I want to...
what I want to say is
meeting you and being with you
elevated my life.
When you moved in,
you did something
I didn't think was possible.
You taught me that I
can grow so much more.
Oh, my God, yes!
A thousand times yes!
You are the sweetest.
I have to go be with my
students at the rocket launch.
Right. Yeah, of course.
All right. Okay. Yeah.
Good luck with the liftoff.
Y'all remember to pick
up your raffle tickets.
The drawing starts in one hour.
Hey, you seen Vanessa?
Hey.
The one with an "X,"
special adult
lemonade, just for you.
Oh, I see your intuition
is still spot-on.
And how is everything feeling?
Still good from the injection?
For the first time in a while,
I just feel free in my body.
Oh, and Gregory texted
me that he's coming back
a little early this
semester from grad school.
Who doesn't love a continued
blossoming romance?
Oh, speaking of which... Mm-hmm?
Come in for a tarot
reading, okay?
Last week I was sensing
a little movement
on the romance track for you.
What? You and... you and
Max are doing okay, right?
Yeah. No, better
than ever, actually.
Is that good? Or bad?
I don't know, I...
Team Liz,
you're launching next.
Okay, that is my call
to be Mission Control.
Okay, guys, here we go.
Let's start the countdown.
Four, three, two, one.
Blast off!
Nice!
Hmm.
Thought you'd be too busy
moving in to come to this.
Mm-mm. Change of plans.
So I came to get my key
back before you get settled.
Don't tell me the nerves
are getting the best of you, Guerin.
I'm not meant to cohabitate
with Alex, all right?
He's gonna figure
that out soon enough.
Yeah, it still sounds
like nerves to me.
I broke something really
important to Alex today,
and I can't fix it.
Because that's
what I do, Dallas.
That's what I always do.
I was once a kid with trash
bags for suitcases, too.
My thing? No matter the
foster home I was in,
I felt like I was the
broken thing in it.
But eventually I realized
home is what you make it.
Alex isn't gonna care about
some thing that you broke.
'Cause what's more
important to him is you.
You gotta find the courage
to push past this, Guerin.
'Cause if you don't,
if you run now,
you'll be risking everything.
Hey, I got your text.
And have you crunched
the analytics
for your weather balloons?
Yeah. Heat, uh, is up
1.3 degrees an hour
for the last three
over Roswell at large.
Even though barometric
pressure and wind direction
dictates it should be falling.
Not to mention that
the ground conditions
don't match up,
that humidity is up
23% in the troposphere.
Similar patterns haven't been
present in Roswell since 1947.
Before the crash? After.
Is that why you've
been having me
look at the sky for months?
Is that why you had
me studying locusts
that had shifted their
migrational course?
You think they were
affected by the weather?
Potentially.
Because the theory connecting
all of these things is what?
I don't know.
Which I don't like.
Jones caught us off guard.
Then he got his hands
on the Lockhart machine
to presumably reach others.
Yeah, but you said he
never made a call, so...
I said I don't believe he did.
These anomalies we're
discussing could be nothing.
Yeah, or it's something
we need to account for.
So what do we do next?
Alex and I are going
to wait for data.
You are going to Bar-mageddon.
Your solve is that
I drink a Rocket-Weisen?
You're here so much
the janitors dust you.
You've spent months finding
a cure for your friend.
You took over Darby's work on
locusts the moment you could.
You need perspective, Kyle.
You have to get outside
of these walls to do that.
Love the skull, Evans.
Thank you.
Uh, yeah, Liz kindly capped
the quota at our house at six,
Mm... so...
had to find a home for Earl.
So, tell me about the proposal.
Who cried more?
Uh, I didn't stick the landing.
Or the middle part.
It wasn't the right time.
Hmm.
What is... what is "hmm"?
Just me cluing in to
why you're denying
these robbers are from...
Look... Liz,
for both good and bad,
pushes the world away for you.
And I just... I just want to
make sure that's what you need.
Hmm.
Is there, like, a little
residual something
about us as a couple?
No, okay? Okay.
And I like Liz.
But... I love you.
And as your friend,
I want to cry at your wedding
knowing that my friend
made the best step
that he could.
Well...
as much as I appreciate
you being able to
ask the hard questions...
But, uh, my future isn't
in the stars, okay?
It's right here with Liz.
And my assessment of
these bank robbers
is based purely on evidence.
Okay.
But in the unlikely
event that you're wrong,
please tell me you've
been working out
those new alien powers you
said that clone of yours had.
Okay? 'Cause these robbers
happen to be alien.
You know, some stronger alien
powers could come in handy.
I don't need alien powers
to defeat bank robbers.
All right? Terrestrial or
extra, it doesn't matter.
All I need is to be a good cop.
Okay.
Just, uh...
don't let happiness
be a handcuff.
Got a 27-2 in progress
at West Pecos Bank and Trust.
Let's go get 'em.
Put your hands up!
Damn it!
Alien enough for you, Evans?
Okay, Little Green
Sheriff, time to down
a power line or something.
No, that's dangerous and
not exactly inconspicuous.
Okay, well, we gotta
do something before
the getaway car gets
to the getaway ship.
I need a unit blocking the
alley on Von Folsom and West.
Two units block
Banner and Pratt.
Push them into the alley
behind the hardware store.
Brains over alien
brawn for the W.
Which one of us cuffs them?
Hold that truck.
Come on, Evans.
Hold the truck.
Hold it!
Hey.
Hi, what can I get you?
Is that... Kyle Valenti?
What brings you into the wild?
I came to support Team
Liz. Oh, that's sweet.
How about you join the dark side
and come and support Team Iz?
We're gonna take two E. Tequila
Sunrises, please. You got it.
What's this about?
Okay, I have something that
I have to tell someone,
and I don't know
how to come clean.
Okay. Okay.
Uh...
You were brave enough
to sell your house,
sell your event
business and commit to
a whole new way of life.
So, as the head sensei
at Woman As Warrior,
what would you tell a
student if they came to you?
Here you go.
I would tell them that...
the feelings you suppress
eventually betray you.
Secrets, they tear you apart
from the inside, you know.
Anything that you try to bury
is going to wind up popping
up right in front of you
until you have the
courage to just face it.
Could not agree more.
So I would tell them
just say it. You know?
'Cause the truth
will set you free.
Yeah.
I really do love you.
Thank you.
So...
tell me...
who's the truth bomb
for, Max or Michael?
Actually... Anatsa. Hmm?
Right.
Of course.
Mija, where you going?
Oh, I got to go find
my student Vanessa.
Tommy said she's
been swiping beers,
and I just, I have
to have a... Churro?
I'm your father.
And I know every
look on your face.
And I know the one you wear
now is not about some...
problematic student.
But Vanessa is a
little lost and I'm...
trying to help her find her way.
Okay? She's just
not having it.
Maybe... because it's hard
to take that kind of advice
from someone who hasn't
found their way themselves.
I have found my way.
With Max?
Yes, finally.
There's just still some...
Confusion.
Do you love him?
More than anything.
That I know.
Then stop running
from the truth.
Take the time to figure
out what you want.
What Liz wants, hmm?
I'll support you.
I know Max loves you
and he will, too.
You left your key?
Given my brain's a lockpick,
I didn't need a k...
It's a metaphor, Guerin.
Look, I was here for 12 minutes,
and I messed up the disposal...
and I broke a
touchstone of sanity
you built with your mom.
This model meant
the world to me.
But it doesn't anymore.
I don't need to build
a pretend world,
when I get the chance to
build the real thing with you.
Aren't you nervous
that after everything
we've been through, maybe
we're wrong about this?
Look.
People get freaked out when they
make life decisions like this.
Hey, I can live
without that gazebo.
What I can't live
without is you.
So why don't you put
your hand in mine?
And we'll start with that, okay?
It is beautiful what
you've set in motion, Tezca.
Did you collect what we require?
Are you certain this is
the best course to take?
Absolutely.
This is what our
Triad is meant to do.
That's, um...
that's all I got.
Thanks. Thank you.
How'd your reading go?
I'm having trouble tapping
into my intuition today.
I don't know, my brain's just
not as focused for some reason.
Could be your final dose.
When I was a kid,
new meds would always mess
with me on the first go-round.
Did you come here
to dispense advice
or to lose at chess?
Mm.
Whoa.
While you contemplate
your next move,
I'm gonna leave this
right here for you.
You brought me an umbrella?
Yeah, I've been honing my
connection to water lately.
And I'm feeling this weird...
shift in atmospheric
pressure tonight.
I may have cloudy tarot brain,
but I'm pretty sure it's
not gonna rain tonight.
Ever since I was five,
I could predict when the sky
was gonna open up, and, uh,
tonight's not that night.
Sorry.
First time for everything.
Hold on to it.
You have Abuela's ring
in your hand, don't you?
How long have you known?
I knew for certain
after the gazebo.
That sounds like a bad thing.
It's a wonderful thing.
I just can't help but wonder
if it's the right time.
You seemed so happy
with us as a...
just a couple from Roswell.
Yeah, I wanted the simple life.
But...
today my dad asked
me how I'm feeling.
And how are you feeling?
I'm waiting for
the next shoe to drop.
Something terrible
is always finding us.
So, then, how do we just
drive off into the sunset...
happy...
when I feel like the next
thing is around the corner?
Tell me I'm crazy.
I can't.
Because you're right.
I've been holding back.
Because I want
so badly to hold
on to this moment.
But we can't hold
on to it, can we?
Things are always changing.
I know we can figure
it out together.
No big decisions have
to be made today.
We just take it
one day at a time.
We'll get there.
Promise me you'll ask
me again, Max Evans?
'Cause I promise I will say yes.
Our love will find a way.
That I'm sure of.
Nothing's bigger than us.
Hey.Hi.
I think maybe we should
bring date night indoors.
No, you know what, my
liquid courage is drying up,
so there's something that
I want to tell you, okay?
Are you being weird 'cause
of what I said earlier?
That I love you?
You don't have to say it
back, you know that, right?
I just wanted you
to know what I feel.
Period.
You can say it... or not.
But just don't say anything
until you're ready.
Of course you'd have the
perfect thing to say.
Which is why, Anatsa,
I love you.
Mm, wait.
There is something else
that I have to tell you.
Okay? Can it wait?
I was kind of enjoying the part
where my lips were on yours.
Um, no, listen, it's,
it's important, so just...
bear with me, okay?
So, um... h-here goes, um...
Oh, my God.
Are you seeing this?
This doesn't look
like Bar-mageddon.
Ironically, I'm finding it
easier to be an alien doctor
right now than a... regular guy.
Oh, I understand.
What is this, Liz?
I don't know.
Soon we'll know where
our work needs to begin.
Why are you smiling?
Because this will bring about
something we've waited
a long time to reap.
The Alighting.
Roswell, New Mexico...
Why do you look like me?
He's the savior,
and I'm the clone.
You're wondering if
I called a vessel
and those ready to navigate
once they reawaken.
I think you're bluffing.
I told you I'd get you
to untangle me from Max.
You will be,
on my terms.
And then we're gonna kill you.
So, um, did E.T. phone home?
I believe she's one
of the sky people
that you talk about.
She keeps repeating
"Liz Ortecho."
How the hell do you
know who Liz Ortecho is?
Is someone there?
'Cause I'm armed.
So am I.
Almost there.
Just a little bit more.
Yes!
What do you think?
Change was never my
strong suit, but...
I know it breaks with
your John Wayne vibe,
but not every room can have
a longhorn skull in it.
What?
I was just thinking
back to six months ago.
We were laying in
your little, tiny bed.
We just beat Jones, I
asked you to move in.
And here you are in my arms,
Old Yellering my couch.
We can keep this couch
as long as you promise
to keep living here.
Now that we have a 12-month
finance plan on furniture,
you're never getting rid of me.
We got to at least
sit... sit on it first.
Oh.
Quickie? I'm looking
for a longie.
And in a few minutes,
my GED class is going
to be looking for their teacher.
Based on week
seven's quiz results,
we're going to do a refresh
on the Leidenfrost Effect.
But with the time left today,
I thought we would go
over the experiment
we're putting up on its
feet this afternoon.
All right.
This is potassium nitrate.
This is common table sugar.
Apart... nada.
But together...
Oh.
Not only is this
the chemical combo
in the rockets we're
launching today,
it also demonstrates
my larger point.
Getting your GED is just one
piece of your life equation.
You got to find the
right mix that...
That can burn down the apartment
your family can barely cover.
Life's an experiment, Vanessa.
There are no
guaranteed outcomes.
Look, I get it, all right?
Sometimes it's hard to believe
there's gonna be a spark when
it all just seems to fizzle.
Or it all blows up in your face.
Well,
that's why people
invented goggles.
Which we are all going to need
at... Bar-mageddon!
Roswell's Annual Rocket Launch
and Food and Drink festival.
Oh. Okay.
Everybody, grab your Team
Liz shirts on the way out.
And we will meet at Arturo's
churro stand no later
than 4:00 p.m. with
your model rockets.
Hey, I get it.
Okay? When I was your
age, I felt the same way.
So, I thought I'd give you
something that helped me
with all the fizzles and
unintentional explosions.
My mentor, Allie Meyers...
She always says, "Everything is
theoretically impossible
until you make it a reality."
Read chapter one, and we'll
talk about it at the launch.
Bar-mageddon's not
on the syllabus,
so I'm taking the
theoretical of attending
and making it a
reality that I'm not.
Here we go! Pull!
And this puts me in the lead.
Mm. I see you've been working
on your ability to
manipulate water.
I mean, why be half
an alien, right?
Oh, right, right.
When you can fully
commit to cheating.
That sounds like a bit of sore
talk from a man that's mad
that I just, uh, tied up
our little alien game.
Perhaps around eight, we'll
decide which is better?
Perhaps you're just stalling
on the big move now.
So why don't you just go ahead,
give me the keys to
the trailer, Guerin?
Get going.
Fine.
But I got to show you this
finicky electrical hook-up.Okay.
Now you are definitely stalling.
:
Please, Guerin. Come on.
Keys.
Okay.
Today's the big day.
One last dose.
So you're sure the
degeneration has stopped?
Bring up DeLuca's scan sequence
two months back to current.
As you can see, ever
since we've started
with the first serum treatment,
the degeneration has slowed.
Enhance last three weeks.
You can see after dose two
that the dark spots have
remained consistent.
Meaning...
you and Liz cured me.
Oh, wait. No.
No, I didn't want to miss
the part where we hugged.
Oh, well, it's-it's
a bit premature.
One last dose to go,
unless there's any, uh,
side effects to report.
No. My tarot card side hustle
has been nosebleed-free
for quite some time.
Okay, just one last shot.
And then the hug.
Thank you, guys.
Everybody deserves
a little happiness.
Kyle and I are just glad
we could help with yours.
All right.
One question remains.
Which alien-themed
Band-Aid you gonna go with?
Mm.Oh, that's me.
That is a Santa Fe brewer
who offered me exclusive rights
to their new beer
at Bar-mageddon.
I got to go.Oh.
Eeny, meeny, miny,
moe. Good one.
All right.Mm.
Got some new genomics software
you might like to test drive.
Or maybe we can see what else
us interstellar internists can
discover by examining Jones?
As appealing as
an autopsy sounds,
I am exhausted
with alien endeavors.
I just want to be a girl
from Roswell a little longer.
And I am hopeful, now
that we've cured Maria,
to see you around more.
Before you walk away with
this order of Saturn's Rings,
I need to say something.
You are a good man.
And I know Liz seems
happy living with you.
But...
if you hurt her, the machete
is right there in the kitchen.
Copy you.
Okay, so, a couple things. The
light switch right there...
It weirdly works the
room around the hall.
Uh, the garbage disposal
is iffy, and, uh...
Coffee table is where
you fold the clothes?
No, I took those
out of my closet
so that you could choose
which side you want.
Okay, so,
now everything here is yours,
except for the level
three clearance laptops,
um, and the sat link
phone and the hard drives.
And the, uh, project X
under the tarp, I assume?
Um...
Well, actually, now
that we live together,
you get to see some
of my secret shame.
Oh.
I know what the Men
in Black stuff is,
but what am I... what am
I looking at here, Manes?
Okay, when I was
growing up, my mom knew
that I was struggling
with who I was, so,
she convinced me to help her
build this model of the gazebo,
my ideal Roswell.
I've, uh... I've never
shown this to anybody, so,
since we are blending
our lives further,
I wanted to show it to you.
So now everything here,
including my weird coping
mechanism, is, uh, is yours.Hmm.
Everything?
Even this button?
Face life head-on.
That is the philosophy
here at Woman As Warrior.
Together, we form a safety net
so that each of us can
walk out on the wire
and confront our literal
and metaphorical demons.
That's it for today.
Thank you so much.
Let me guess.
You're here for a
self-defense lesson?
Tell me, Director Evans,
can I pay with this?
Okay.
I see we're talking lay-away?
A quick one,
as I have a meeting
with my editor.
But before I go, I wanted to say
I'm so proud of what
you're doing here.
I love how much you've grown,
I love how strong
you are, and...
I love you.
Hey, I'm gonna have to
meet you at Max's, okay?
I got to run by Deep Sky
to work on my project.
You mean Operation Hot Latex?
I know that studying weather
balloons doesn't sound
like it's saving the world,
but its research harbors some
pretty cutting-edge stuff.
Mm, and did Eduardo
ever tell you why
he put you on the assignment?
Well, I mean he's not exactly
forthcoming with his requests,
but I got to imagine that, uh,
there's a good reason for it.
Make yourself at home, okay?
It is yours, after all.
Bye.
No, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Uh, yes. Thank you.Okay.
Hi.
Wait. Come back here.
This is for you, too.
Mmm. All right, we're good.
Hey. Oh, hey, good to see you.
Oh, shoot. Thank
you.Mmm. Thank you.
Digging the haircut.
Oh, thank you.
Uh, I dig that barber
shop that you sent me to.
Mm.
And, um, I think I'm
ready to make my move.
Are you sure you want to do
this right here, right now?
I got an hour left on my turn,
and I think I've got you beat.
You do know that
I see the future,
and the future shows me
exactly what you're gonna do.
Yeah, well, I read prayers,
and I'm pretty sure
your last Hail Mary was,
"Don't move my bishop
to D-6."
Hmm.
It's dry rub for ribs,
low and slow for chicken.
Hey, you should try Space
Jam in Barbecue sauce.
It'll change your
life. Back me up here.
I am not getting in
the middle of a debate
on who knows more about
meat... Cowboy or...
Oh, no, no, no, no.
It's Hatch Day, Ortecho.
Please, can we keep it PG-13?
You okay?
Yeah, I'm good. I'm
good. I'm great.
Yeah, maybe could, uh,
you know, maybe just use
another one of
your Hatch-a-ritas.
Okay, cowboy.
So, uh, you guys just getting
over a fight or something?
No. In fact, uh, the
biggest fight we've had
since she moved in
was, uh, getting dishes
that actually match.Huh.
Um, how did you...?
Your meat thermometer...
It's blinking
on pace with your
nerves right now.
Do you think she'll say "no"?
Oh, buddy.
She will say "yes," but
Liz doesn't strike me
as the ask-me-
a-life-changing-question
in-front-of-my-friends
type of girl, right?
So...
what's the back-up plan?
Oh.
Elizabeth. Hi!
Wow. Congratulations
on this stellar fiesta.
The banner is on point.
Oh, my God, look.
You've carved a
little, uh, Hatch chili
into an alien as a
garnish. The thing is,
all of this has to go.
What's happening?
Anatsa is coming.
Oh, we're-we're having an
"alien in the know party,"
and she's not in the know.
Mm.Okay, okay, okay,
so, how did this happen?
Well, um, she told
me she loved me.
And then I panicked.
And next thing I know, she's
bringing a potato salad.
Does this mean you said it back?
No, I did not.
I-I was too busy wondering
if saying it back means
saying... Right.
Everything else?
Look, Anatsa is great.Yeah.
Okay, so maybe just see
where your feelings go
before you fill her in on
the part about being...
Hatched.
Oh, my God.
Whoa. Okay.
When you say asinine things
like that, it makes me question
whether you and I took the
same tests at Quantico.
Okay? Go get me facts.
Yes, ma'am.
Well, that was one part
of being your partner
I certainly don't miss.
FBI looks good on
you, Agent Cameron.
Well, I did all this just so
I could outrank you, Evans.
I, uh... I hear you
leveled up to sheriff.
Interim sheriff. Well,
as much as I wish
this was a good old-fashioned
laugh and get lit,
I've called you to help solve
this odd little bank job.
Me? Why?
'Cause I think you and I
might be the only people
who can crack this case.
I think this heist was
committed by aliens.
Hell of a party trick
to pull all these boxes
free from their slots.
Well, it's unusual,
but I'm not exactly seeing
a flying saucer in here.
Lock on the cage was opened
with ease, no sign of force.
So you're looking
for Danny Ocean.
Danny Ocean doesn't
smell like rain.
It smells like mold. You
got something more pressing
than knocking this
around further?
I... I did not know
a civil servant could
afford a rock that size.
It's Liz's abuela'sring.
Oh.
Well, Granny Ortecho's
fingers were a bit sausagey.
Should I resize it?
Yes.
And before you enact whatever
sappy proposal you have planned.
You go deal with that.
I will stay here
and deal with this.
But you owe me tequila
if the robbers turn out
to be of the pod variety.
Don't tell me you've
already retreated to the garage
like y'all are some
old married couple.
Ooh, I am all bantered
out today, Max.
So, what do you
want to talk about?
Yeah, yeah, I was hoping
to get that resized
to match one of her others.
I got to ask you something.
How did you know it
was the right time?
Well, we've been living
together for five months,
and things are just
about as perfect
as they could possibly be.
So you're not worried
a proposal's gonna
screw it all up?
I mean, there's the usual
nerves, I guess, but...
no, it feels right.
Wait. Is this about
you being all Michael
about moving in with Alex?
No.
Maybe.
Whenever I stayed at your home
as a kid, it never felt right.
I felt feral, undomesticated.
So even if I want
to make it work,
doesn't mean it will.
That sounds like classic
Guerin self-sabotage.
Or maybe I'm reading the signs,
and it's not the right time.
And if it isn't, no matter
how much one person wants it,
it won't end well.
All right, well,
only you can know
if you and Alex are
on the right path.
For me and Liz, I know
we are ready to take
the next step in ours.
Hey. Thanks for meeting me.
I'm sorry I had to run out
on the Hatch Day barbecue.
It's okay. Since
it is Hatch Day...
Is this nostalgic backwards cap
Evans I'm meeting at the park?
Well, it's just, the day kind of
got me thinking about my journey
and about our journey,
and you know, I mean,
this town has so
much history for us.
You know, and this spot in
particular has so many chapters.
I guess what I want to...
what I want to say is
meeting you and being with you
elevated my life.
When you moved in,
you did something
I didn't think was possible.
You taught me that I
can grow so much more.
Oh, my God, yes!
A thousand times yes!
You are the sweetest.
I have to go be with my
students at the rocket launch.
Right. Yeah, of course.
All right. Okay. Yeah.
Good luck with the liftoff.
Y'all remember to pick
up your raffle tickets.
The drawing starts in one hour.
Hey, you seen Vanessa?
Hey.
The one with an "X,"
special adult
lemonade, just for you.
Oh, I see your intuition
is still spot-on.
And how is everything feeling?
Still good from the injection?
For the first time in a while,
I just feel free in my body.
Oh, and Gregory texted
me that he's coming back
a little early this
semester from grad school.
Who doesn't love a continued
blossoming romance?
Oh, speaking of which... Mm-hmm?
Come in for a tarot
reading, okay?
Last week I was sensing
a little movement
on the romance track for you.
What? You and... you and
Max are doing okay, right?
Yeah. No, better
than ever, actually.
Is that good? Or bad?
I don't know, I...
Team Liz,
you're launching next.
Okay, that is my call
to be Mission Control.
Okay, guys, here we go.
Let's start the countdown.
Four, three, two, one.
Blast off!
Nice!
Hmm.
Thought you'd be too busy
moving in to come to this.
Mm-mm. Change of plans.
So I came to get my key
back before you get settled.
Don't tell me the nerves
are getting the best of you, Guerin.
I'm not meant to cohabitate
with Alex, all right?
He's gonna figure
that out soon enough.
Yeah, it still sounds
like nerves to me.
I broke something really
important to Alex today,
and I can't fix it.
Because that's
what I do, Dallas.
That's what I always do.
I was once a kid with trash
bags for suitcases, too.
My thing? No matter the
foster home I was in,
I felt like I was the
broken thing in it.
But eventually I realized
home is what you make it.
Alex isn't gonna care about
some thing that you broke.
'Cause what's more
important to him is you.
You gotta find the courage
to push past this, Guerin.
'Cause if you don't,
if you run now,
you'll be risking everything.
Hey, I got your text.
And have you crunched
the analytics
for your weather balloons?
Yeah. Heat, uh, is up
1.3 degrees an hour
for the last three
over Roswell at large.
Even though barometric
pressure and wind direction
dictates it should be falling.
Not to mention that
the ground conditions
don't match up,
that humidity is up
23% in the troposphere.
Similar patterns haven't been
present in Roswell since 1947.
Before the crash? After.
Is that why you've
been having me
look at the sky for months?
Is that why you had
me studying locusts
that had shifted their
migrational course?
You think they were
affected by the weather?
Potentially.
Because the theory connecting
all of these things is what?
I don't know.
Which I don't like.
Jones caught us off guard.
Then he got his hands
on the Lockhart machine
to presumably reach others.
Yeah, but you said he
never made a call, so...
I said I don't believe he did.
These anomalies we're
discussing could be nothing.
Yeah, or it's something
we need to account for.
So what do we do next?
Alex and I are going
to wait for data.
You are going to Bar-mageddon.
Your solve is that
I drink a Rocket-Weisen?
You're here so much
the janitors dust you.
You've spent months finding
a cure for your friend.
You took over Darby's work on
locusts the moment you could.
You need perspective, Kyle.
You have to get outside
of these walls to do that.
Love the skull, Evans.
Thank you.
Uh, yeah, Liz kindly capped
the quota at our house at six,
Mm... so...
had to find a home for Earl.
So, tell me about the proposal.
Who cried more?
Uh, I didn't stick the landing.
Or the middle part.
It wasn't the right time.
Hmm.
What is... what is "hmm"?
Just me cluing in to
why you're denying
these robbers are from...
Look... Liz,
for both good and bad,
pushes the world away for you.
And I just... I just want to
make sure that's what you need.
Hmm.
Is there, like, a little
residual something
about us as a couple?
No, okay? Okay.
And I like Liz.
But... I love you.
And as your friend,
I want to cry at your wedding
knowing that my friend
made the best step
that he could.
Well...
as much as I appreciate
you being able to
ask the hard questions...
But, uh, my future isn't
in the stars, okay?
It's right here with Liz.
And my assessment of
these bank robbers
is based purely on evidence.
Okay.
But in the unlikely
event that you're wrong,
please tell me you've
been working out
those new alien powers you
said that clone of yours had.
Okay? 'Cause these robbers
happen to be alien.
You know, some stronger alien
powers could come in handy.
I don't need alien powers
to defeat bank robbers.
All right? Terrestrial or
extra, it doesn't matter.
All I need is to be a good cop.
Okay.
Just, uh...
don't let happiness
be a handcuff.
Got a 27-2 in progress
at West Pecos Bank and Trust.
Let's go get 'em.
Put your hands up!
Damn it!
Alien enough for you, Evans?
Okay, Little Green
Sheriff, time to down
a power line or something.
No, that's dangerous and
not exactly inconspicuous.
Okay, well, we gotta
do something before
the getaway car gets
to the getaway ship.
I need a unit blocking the
alley on Von Folsom and West.
Two units block
Banner and Pratt.
Push them into the alley
behind the hardware store.
Brains over alien
brawn for the W.
Which one of us cuffs them?
Hold that truck.
Come on, Evans.
Hold the truck.
Hold it!
Hey.
Hi, what can I get you?
Is that... Kyle Valenti?
What brings you into the wild?
I came to support Team
Liz. Oh, that's sweet.
How about you join the dark side
and come and support Team Iz?
We're gonna take two E. Tequila
Sunrises, please. You got it.
What's this about?
Okay, I have something that
I have to tell someone,
and I don't know
how to come clean.
Okay. Okay.
Uh...
You were brave enough
to sell your house,
sell your event
business and commit to
a whole new way of life.
So, as the head sensei
at Woman As Warrior,
what would you tell a
student if they came to you?
Here you go.
I would tell them that...
the feelings you suppress
eventually betray you.
Secrets, they tear you apart
from the inside, you know.
Anything that you try to bury
is going to wind up popping
up right in front of you
until you have the
courage to just face it.
Could not agree more.
So I would tell them
just say it. You know?
'Cause the truth
will set you free.
Yeah.
I really do love you.
Thank you.
So...
tell me...
who's the truth bomb
for, Max or Michael?
Actually... Anatsa. Hmm?
Right.
Of course.
Mija, where you going?
Oh, I got to go find
my student Vanessa.
Tommy said she's
been swiping beers,
and I just, I have
to have a... Churro?
I'm your father.
And I know every
look on your face.
And I know the one you wear
now is not about some...
problematic student.
But Vanessa is a
little lost and I'm...
trying to help her find her way.
Okay? She's just
not having it.
Maybe... because it's hard
to take that kind of advice
from someone who hasn't
found their way themselves.
I have found my way.
With Max?
Yes, finally.
There's just still some...
Confusion.
Do you love him?
More than anything.
That I know.
Then stop running
from the truth.
Take the time to figure
out what you want.
What Liz wants, hmm?
I'll support you.
I know Max loves you
and he will, too.
You left your key?
Given my brain's a lockpick,
I didn't need a k...
It's a metaphor, Guerin.
Look, I was here for 12 minutes,
and I messed up the disposal...
and I broke a
touchstone of sanity
you built with your mom.
This model meant
the world to me.
But it doesn't anymore.
I don't need to build
a pretend world,
when I get the chance to
build the real thing with you.
Aren't you nervous
that after everything
we've been through, maybe
we're wrong about this?
Look.
People get freaked out when they
make life decisions like this.
Hey, I can live
without that gazebo.
What I can't live
without is you.
So why don't you put
your hand in mine?
And we'll start with that, okay?
It is beautiful what
you've set in motion, Tezca.
Did you collect what we require?
Are you certain this is
the best course to take?
Absolutely.
This is what our
Triad is meant to do.
That's, um...
that's all I got.
Thanks. Thank you.
How'd your reading go?
I'm having trouble tapping
into my intuition today.
I don't know, my brain's just
not as focused for some reason.
Could be your final dose.
When I was a kid,
new meds would always mess
with me on the first go-round.
Did you come here
to dispense advice
or to lose at chess?
Mm.
Whoa.
While you contemplate
your next move,
I'm gonna leave this
right here for you.
You brought me an umbrella?
Yeah, I've been honing my
connection to water lately.
And I'm feeling this weird...
shift in atmospheric
pressure tonight.
I may have cloudy tarot brain,
but I'm pretty sure it's
not gonna rain tonight.
Ever since I was five,
I could predict when the sky
was gonna open up, and, uh,
tonight's not that night.
Sorry.
First time for everything.
Hold on to it.
You have Abuela's ring
in your hand, don't you?
How long have you known?
I knew for certain
after the gazebo.
That sounds like a bad thing.
It's a wonderful thing.
I just can't help but wonder
if it's the right time.
You seemed so happy
with us as a...
just a couple from Roswell.
Yeah, I wanted the simple life.
But...
today my dad asked
me how I'm feeling.
And how are you feeling?
I'm waiting for
the next shoe to drop.
Something terrible
is always finding us.
So, then, how do we just
drive off into the sunset...
happy...
when I feel like the next
thing is around the corner?
Tell me I'm crazy.
I can't.
Because you're right.
I've been holding back.
Because I want
so badly to hold
on to this moment.
But we can't hold
on to it, can we?
Things are always changing.
I know we can figure
it out together.
No big decisions have
to be made today.
We just take it
one day at a time.
We'll get there.
Promise me you'll ask
me again, Max Evans?
'Cause I promise I will say yes.
Our love will find a way.
That I'm sure of.
Nothing's bigger than us.
Hey.Hi.
I think maybe we should
bring date night indoors.
No, you know what, my
liquid courage is drying up,
so there's something that
I want to tell you, okay?
Are you being weird 'cause
of what I said earlier?
That I love you?
You don't have to say it
back, you know that, right?
I just wanted you
to know what I feel.
Period.
You can say it... or not.
But just don't say anything
until you're ready.
Of course you'd have the
perfect thing to say.
Which is why, Anatsa,
I love you.
Mm, wait.
There is something else
that I have to tell you.
Okay? Can it wait?
I was kind of enjoying the part
where my lips were on yours.
Um, no, listen, it's,
it's important, so just...
