Falling Skies Season 4

Episode31: Karen's Return

Hal and Ben was riding on their motorcycles checking the perimeter of the new base of operations in Miami, Florida, and then out in the distance was a bright light coming toward them and then there bikes cut off automatically.

"I guess we have to hoof it" said Hal.

"Do you think we need to go get dad and the others so they can check it out?"Said Ben

No we are near the landing site so put on your big boy pants and let's go check it out. Hal rebutted.

As they neared the landing site a familiar person was seen in the distance and out from the fog was the last person they thought they would ever see again Karen and she looked a bit older.

Hi Hal and Ben.

Freeze and put your hands up. Said Hal

Hal it's me Karen.

I will not fall for that again so put up your hands.

What do you mean again? O right I tricked you guys and you put me in a psych cell for a brief period of time, and then me and Ben escaped to go to the place where the Skitter rebellion was taken place. Am I right about the details?

Yeah you are right and Hal you can put the weapon down because she is not connected to the masters any more.

I knew I can count on you Ben and in the future we will have a different kind of connection.

What do you mean? Said both Hal and Ben

Can't tell you that because of the whole stepping on the butterfly wings kind of thing.

Are you telling us that you are from the … the… the…. the…

Future. Said Karen

How far into the future are you from. Said Ben and Hal

About 40 years. Said Karen

What are you doing here in this time period? Both of the guys asked.

I am here to save the past Karen and give her information only she can access to stop the alien invasion.

So is there a way to reverse the hold of the masters on a person they are controlling. Said Ben

Yes. Said Karen

How can it be done? Said Ben

I can't tell you the process, but I can tell you it requires getting to that person's humanity which is surrounded by a lot of darkness.

Can we meet in the clearing in about 3 hours? Said Karen

Why? Said Hal

Because a Mech is coming in about an hour tops

So something came back in the time portal with you. Said Ben

Yes and I have the only weapon to stop it in its tracks.

What is this so called weapon? Said Hal

I cannot divulge that info just yet. Let's just say that it gives the object a shock in its system. Said Karen

How can we get out of here when our bikes stopped running? Said Ben and Hal

Don't worry about it the bikes should be up and running by the time you get to them. Said Karen

Hal and Ben ran to their vehicles and just like Karen told them the bikes started back up, and they drove off to meet Karen, and then a portal began to open up producing a Mech.
