"I wanna know what I missed," Rosa tells Liz as Kyle steps away to take a business call.
"What?" Liz asks as she puts on her coat.
"You can't leave me here without telling me what I missed," Rosa says, "especially if you did leave Roswell…"
"I took that road trip," Liz says setting her coat down, "and I went to school out of state. I went to three schools in three states, actually," she said smilng, "I couldn't stay in one place too longl-
"Did you come back a lot?" Rosa asks leaning in, waiting for Liz to sit down.
Liz shakes her head no, "De vez en cuando," she answers, "to check on dad."
"She barely talked to me," Kyle interrupts as he walks back in to the dining room, "She let me be her facebook friend by sophomore year-
"Yeah" Liz said, "I needed to make sure you were dating-
Kyle rolls his eyes, "it's not like that for guys like me."
Liz nods, "I knew I wanted to help people and got buried in work. I never heard from Mom, didn't know how to find her, so I just came in for the holidays," adding, "this was the first time I came back around the anniversary of-
"So you've been around since the summer, then," Rosa asks, "trying to figure out how I died?
Kyle nods, "it was a pretty intense rabbit hole."
"After Max saved my life," Liz said, taking a deep breath but wanting to commit to the story, "I asked him to see memories of you, then I asked Kyle to find your medical records…"
"So that's how you got caught up in the alien stuff?"
Kyle and Liz both nod.
"So," Rosa asks, "I wonder who's buried where I'm supposed to be…"
"We never checked," Kyle thinks out loud, "we only just learned you weren't there."
"Yeah," Liz agrees sitting down, "between making sure Dad was safe, curing Isabel, we never thought to dig it up-and we wouldn't have."
Rosa shrugs, looks at her sister and the guy she must now admit is her brother and says, "I have more questions. Like who else knows?"
"Alex," Kyle answers, "and this cop this was helping us, Max's partner.
"-Former partner," Liz interjects, "Maria and Dad have no idea. Graham Green had been the guy who called 911 on your bodies floating, but Long, possessed by Noah, killed him to keep him from saying more…"
"Shit," Rosa exclaims, "like what the hell?!"
"Yeah," Liz says.
"Like why'd they come here?" Rosa asks shaking her head, "like so many of them ruined so many lives…"
"Because of a civil war?" Kyle thinks out loud.
"They were escaping persecution," Liz says, "from what Noah told Max, but no one's sure."
"I guess some people are allowed to change," Rosa says, "you just gotta be able to kill-
"Or save people," Liz interjects.
"I just need to talk a lot of this through," Rosa says leaning forward at the table, "I can't go out because everyone thinks I'm dead, and that I killed those girls," Rosa takes a breath and says, "because I'm still nineteen…"
Rosa gets up and runs her fingers through her hair, "This is fucked up," she says, "why'd Max-
"Because he knew how much I missed you," Liz says leaning back, "I was at your tombstone talking about how much I wanted to tell you about him. I was telling you how much I missed you…"
"So," Rosa says, "was he there with you?"
Liz shakes her head no. Looking to her side she says, "When aliens lay their hands on you, for a period after, you feel echoes of what the other is feeling or thinking," she looks at Rosa standing on the other side of her and says, "and he knew that learning the truth gave me another sort of grief."
The tears couldn't resist falling from Liz's eyes. "I'll call my dad," Liz says, "tell him I'm on assignment."
She gets up and walks back to the kitchen, Kyle's eyes following her. He figures she's staying because Rosa needs an additional babysitter, one that knows her ticks. He and his high school sweetheart share a sister. It's not the most major part of the past summer and fall, but it's enough to have him scratching his head and leaving him speechless. They've fed Rosa all the information about how they got to bringing her back from the dead and all the alien stuff she may not have known.
