| While being interrogated
by Agent Duff, Laurie becomes so agitated that she is packed off into an ambulance to
presumably be carted back to the mental hospital. Michael and Maria, who have been spying
on the Sheriff’s Office, take off after the ambulance, but when Laurie manages to
free herself from her restraints and attacks the driver, the ambulance crashes. Laurie
attempts to escape, but is caught by Michael and Maria, and they all become the targets of
the black-clad assassin who had tried to kill Isabel, Max, and Valenti in Frasier’s
Woods. The three take off in Maria’s Jetta, while being shot at from behind. When
Michael calls Max from the road, Isabel joins in on the extension, warning Michael not to
come back to Roswell since the whole town is looking for Laurie. Laurie, meanwhile, is
going wild in the car, tearing off the sun visor and threatening to destroy Maria’s
CD player, while Maria furiously catalogues the cost of the damages.
Back at the Evans’ household, Isabel and Max are once again examining the blue
alien crystals found at Laurie’s burial site. Max looks through the microscope at the
pulsing cells of the structure, and surmises that the substance seems to be some sort of
alien bacterium. Isabel suggests Max use his lab partner, Liz Parker, to help determine
what the substance could be, but Max wants to keep Liz out of it.
At the Crashdown, Isabel is telling Alex and Liz that they all have to cover for Maria
and Michael while they’re gone for a couple of days, when Sean DeLuca wanders up and
informs them that Amy DeLuca is flipping out over Maria’s disappearance. FBI Agent
Duff takes Isabel in to the Sheriff’s office for questioning, and once again asks
Isabel about the details of the night Laurie was found buried. Agent Duff dismisses
Isabel’s concerns that maybe her parents or her lawyer should be present, and reminds
Isabel that Sheriff Valenti knew that Laurie Dupree was missing before a missing
person’s report was filed, and also knew beforehand exactly where she was buried. Yet
Valenti refuses to say how he knew all that. The only link she can find, she goes on, is
Isabel and Max, who were seen with the Sheriff a number of times during the investigation.
Isabel insists once again that she was only in contact with Valenti because she lost her
bike, but Duff isn’t buying it. She asks Isabel what the big secret is, and reminds
her that she’s not dealing with the local law enforcement, she’s dealing with
the FBI. Just then, Grant Sorenson enters the room, carrying a large package. He unwraps
the blanket covering the package, to reveal a rifle inside. Sorenson claims he found the
gun in the woods, near the crash scene. |
