Ryan arrives at Al's Garage. He asks the mechanic if Angelo is around. The mechanic says no. Ryan hauls the mechanic out from under the car. Hello, Angelo.
Father Jack is at the FBI and Erica is shocked to see him. She tries to convince him not to give the Dead Guy's photos to the FBI task force but he says he must.
Tyler and Brandon are on ambassador duty, handing out brochures near a crowd of protesters. Lisa comes to the fence; the Vs aren't allowed to walk the streets yet. Tyler shows off his bike. Lisa uses his phone to take a picture of herself. Ty promises her a pizza date once the Vs can leave their compound. A couple protesters get rowdy and Tyler punches one in the face. Lisa walks away, upset. Violence is not our message.
Angelo is another alien, a traitor in hiding like Ryan. He heard about what went down in Brooklyn at the warehouse and frankly, is surprised that Ryan got involved again. He fixes up Ryan's arm. Although he is surprised that Ryan is prepared to rejoin the fight, especially considering that the humans are going to get it bad but traitors will get it worse, he is not prepared to help and he knocks out his fellow lizard.
Father Jack gets out of his interview and Erica is furious with him. What part of "trust no one" doesn't he get? Father Jack gets in her face - she walked away from him. What was he supposed to do with the information he had? He had to trust someone. Before it gets much further, Paul calls Erica into his office. He keeps wondering why Paul went there alone. Erica claims ignorance, even after Paul accuses her of lying. Finally, he pulls out a recording of her 911 call.
She admits it. Sort of. She says that she suspected Dale of working for the terrorist cell. She thought her partner was the leak but she couldn't say anything without proof. She went to the warehouse and then called 911 for backup but it never came. Paul says the tape came from the DEA, who had wiretaps on all the calls in the area because of a different investigation. Erica asks for time to prove Dale was a traitor and Paul gives it to her.
Broadcast: Chad hosts a debate on the Vs - pros and cons of establishing relations. Anna watches and is either shocked or amused, I couldn't tell.
Erica visits Father Jack at his church to apologize. She says if her partner fooled everyone, even his wife, they can't afford trust. Father Jack is in denial but she tells him that there is no normal anymore, and that they can't act like there is. He is the only one she knows she can trust. He tells her that he can't help her anymore. Erica goes on to meet with Dale's wife/widow. She tells Erica that Dale had a phone just for personal calls. He phoned two numbers: her and one other. She admits that his behaviour changed after the Visitors arrived, but then, so did everyone's.
Ryan wakes up alone on the floor of the garage. He leaves in a hurry. He arrives home but Valerie is not there. Angelo calls him and tells him that Ryan should take Valerie and head for the hills. He tells Ryan that if he can get Valerie's information, so can the Vs. And they will not hesitate to use her against him.
Erica brings Dale's phone records to Paul. Every time the FBI went to nail the terrorist cell, Dale called the second number 30 minutes before the raid. He was a terrorist. Paul can't believe it. Erica reminds Paul that she was partnered with Dale for 7 years and she didn't have a clue either. She also doesn't correct Paul's impression on what kind of terrorist Dale was. Paul is angry that Dale is still out there. Erica doesn't think they'll see his face again.
Tyler shows up for Ambassador duty but is locked out. Lisa tells him that the Council is considering revoking his Ambassador status and that she is in trouble because she recommended him.
Marcus tells Chad that the debate he did was "an abrogation of our agreement." Chad blows him off, saying that he did them a favour. Yes, he showed pros and cons of the Vs but in the end the Vs approval rating went up. He may not make policy but he does sway public opinion. Chad says that this one was free but in the future, interviews will be on his terms.
Broadcast: Chad announces that the U.S. is beginning to establish diplomatic relations with the Vs. After the broadcast, Anna calls to thank him.
Erica leaves the FBI building and Father Jack is waiting. He decided that she is right and he will fight with her. But they need help. Erica shows him a file she swiped from the task force - every person who ever filed an alien report with the FBI. They will start looking for recruits there.
Ryan returns home. Valerie looks at his arm, which is now almost healed. She notices that a picture on the mantle is upside-down. When she resets it, a notecard drops out. It says "Cyrus" and an address. Ryan says that it is an old friend.
Erica finds Tyler in his room and thanks him for keeping his promise to stay away from the Vs. He shrugs it off, and looks at his picture of Lisa after she leaves. Downstairs, Erica goes over Dale's file. She shreds his picture - he's dead so she doesn't need it.
And above the city, Dale opens his eyes in a medical pod on the mothership.
