We didn’t use nuclear bombs because we thought they might be friendly, but they weren’t. They used something that stopped all the ma- chines. They wiped out the army. Moms and dads fought. The aliens kill grown-ups and catch kids and put devices on them to control them. Matt, the young boy, thinks the aliens might have gotten his brother Ben. His dad is out fighting. Tom Mason (Noah Wylie) runs in bombed out streets, going after a cart of food. Laser shots take out the cart and they’re forced to leave it. He and his son Hal run between burning cars, trying to avoid the hail of gunfire. There are live aliens, called ”skitters”, and mechanical ones called ”mechs”. Other resistance fighters put down cover fire. Tom and Hal hide under a car, they’re helpless to aid a woman who gets shot and is wounded, then preyed upon by aliens. Tom meets up with more fighters, who tell him the aliens are on the verge of taking a key part of the city. They watch as a cloud of something envelopes the city behind them. Back at camp, they report their casualties and walk through throngs of hungry people warm- ing themselves by burning oil drums. Tom checks on his son, Matt. 3 Falling Skies Episode Guide Anne (Moon Bloodgood) tells Tom about her talk with Matt and the pictures he drew. She’s encouraged that he’s drawing his whole family. Tom is summoned by the commander, Porter, who tells him it’s time to leave the city because they’ve picked it clean. Tom doesn’t want to leave the kids that the aliens have taken hostage. The commander says they’ll travel in packs of 300, with 100 fighters and 200 civilians each. He’s already sent out 9 units. He tells Sam he’ll have Jeffries as his second in command. Weaver (Will Patton) will have the Second Massachusetts, replacing Jameson. He’s giving him Tom as his second in command. Weaver wants to stay and fight, but Porter points out they don’t know how to fight them, so they have to run and hide instead. He tells them they’re trying to figure out the ”harness situation” – the vertebrae braces the aliens put on children. When Weaver leaves, Porter tells Tom to use his degree in military history to defend the civilians. Around the campfire later, they tell stories of impressive alien kills. Hal looks at the alien ship parked on the horizon and muses about infiltrating it and blowing it up. Tom suggests a few historical approaches, including tunneling under it with TNT, and earns the name ”Professor Kicka—.” Hal asks his dad to ease up on the history lessons when his friends are around. Even post- alien invasion, he’s embarrassed by dad. Anne treats the wounded. She’s a pediatrician. She asks Tom what the plan is. ”Retreat, regroup, return, revenge,” he tells her. Weaver barks orders at Tom like they’re in the military. Matt wonders if he’ll still get a birthday party when they’re on the move. Everyone packs up to head out. Tom looks over stacks of books. He weighs Tale of Two Cities and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and takes the lighter one – Dickens. They head out. They walk through a neighborhood and Anne remembers visiting one of the houses once with her husband. He was a painter. They stop to pick over the food supplies. Weaver laments that they’re moving slowly with all the civilians. Tom suggests he take a small group of fighters and go back for food since Weaver won’t detour with the whole group. Weaver agrees. Tom rounds up six people, including Dai, who comes with a stick of C4. Matt tells his dad about his birthday wish. He wants everything back the way it was. Tom looks at maps, with Hal and Karen set to scout the food locations out. Waiting for Hal to return, Tom finds a boy’s body lying nearby. He had a harness on. Someone tried to take it off him and it killed him. He’s about the same age as Tom’s son Ben. Hal surveys the food location and hears aliens coming. He ducks for cover by a stream. He sees a dozen children walk by like zombies. They have harnesses on. One is his brother. Back with his dad, Hal wants to get his brother, despite the odds. Tom has to tell him they can’t. Hal tries to leave, but Tom wrestles him to the ground and tells him they have get the food first and plan better. Tom draws up a plan. He’ll go in at dark with Dai and Hal and if the coast is clear the rest should follow. If they hear shots, he tells them, they should leave. He tells them they don’t have to kill them all, just enough to make trouble. ”We can make it too painful and too costly for them to stay,” he says. Tom tells them history is full of invading forces leaving because inferior forces made too much trouble. When his historical examples don’t work, he cites Red Sox-Yankees in 2004. ”We can beat ’em,” he says. After night has fallen, the three sneak into the warehouse. They creep along the aisles. It seems empty. They signal for the Jeep. They start loading it up quietly. As they’re packing, an alien hand appears. It leaps out at Hal as he’s unloading food. Tom comes and shoots at it, but he’s soon taking fire. He runs for cover and arms the C-4. One of the mechs stalks them. Tom wheels a cart toward it with the C4 and blasts it to bits.
