Falling Skies Summer Finale Thoughts
So “Falling Skies” is over until the 4th season airs next summer. We ended up much where we began, with the 2nd Mass back on the road . . .
The human’s, with the aid of the Volm weapon, managed to take down the Eshveti tower in Boston and deal a major blow to them. Then in came the mother Volm ship, with Cochise’s father onboard as their supreme leader. He basically felt the humans were not needed now that they were here, and wanted to relocate them to Brazil. When Tom said no, he was taken down by Volm guards and told this wasn’t a discussion, they would be relocated.
Tom, Weaver, Pope and the others weren’t going to be shipped off to some prison camp, and Pope gloated and loved saying “told you so” about the Volm. They all snuck out of Boston and found themselves refugees once more.
Tom and the others met with Karen and some Eshveti on the road. She told him the Volm weren’t who they claimed to be, and more nasty truths would come out soon, and they may want to strike a deal. She had something for him, and he had something for her. He shot her, and as she lay dying and tried to apologize to Hal, Maggie shot her two more times to finish her off.
Tom soon discovered Anne and Lexie in the nearby woods, but Lexie was now a toddler. Would she keep aging at this rate? Nobody had the answer. She definitely has powers though. She was able to call out the bugs in Lordes, they poured out of her eyes into Lexie’s hands and then Lexie turned them to dust and smiled.
… So Lexie is totally creepy, and we still have no answers how and why she ended up this way. I am guessing it was the Eshveti, why else would they want her? They must have altered Tom’s DNA when they had him.
Karen’s warning about the Volm were intriguing. What if the story Cochise was actually backwards? What if the Volm chased the Eshveti away, destroyed their home planet, etc . . .
I feel like Karen was going to say something important when Maggie put a bullet in her. Hmmmm . . .
