Transcript from Pilot - Aliens - http://maxpages.com/roswell2k/Pilot2

Max and Liz have gone into the art room to talk.]
LIZ: I need to know the truth Max. I need to know, everything. Or I'll - I'm just gonna go to
Valenti and I'm gonna tell him everything I know.
MAX: Okay.
LIZ: Okay.
[She takes a piece of paper with her questions written on it out of her pocket.]
LIZ: Okay. All right. Here we go. Where did you come from?
MAX: I don't know. When the ship crashed I wasn't born yet.
LIZ: So there was a crash?
MAX: All I know is it wasn't a weather balloon that fell that night.
LIZ: The ship crashed in 1947 your 16?
MAX: We were in some kind of incubation pods.
LIZ: We?
MAX: Isabel and Michael are also...uh...
LIZ: Okay, well, that, answers, um, that question. Um, what powers do you have?
MAX: We can connect with people, as uh, you know. We can manipulate molecular structures,
and...we can....
LIZ: Wait, what does that mean?
[Max goes to a clay sculpture on a nearby table and moves his hand in front of it, the shape
changes]
MAX: That's, uh, that's how I healed you.
LIZ: Max, who else knows this?
MAX: No one.
LIZ: What about your parents?
MAX: We don't tell anyone. We sorta think our lives depend on it.
LIZ: So when you healed me you risked all of this getting out didn't you?
MAX: Yea.
LIZ: Why??
MAX: It was you.
[Liz smiles]
LIZ: Um Max, Valenti showed me this photo of a corpse. A murder victim. It had the same silver
handprint on it's chest.
MAX: That can't be.
LIZ: The photo was marked 1959.
MAX: That's impossible.
LIZ: Kyle saw the handprint on my stomach and Valenti found my waitress uniform with the
bullet hole in it. He just asked me if you were in the cafe during the shooting. Max, he suspects
you.
[Max starts to leave.]
LIZ: Max.
MAX: I have to go.
LIZ: Max wait, go where?? Where are you going? Max wait!! Max!!
[She runs out into the hall to stop him but loses him in a crowd of people who run by dressed for
the festival.]
[Isabel is getting ready on her bed. Max opens the door.]
MAX: Forget the festival. It's time to leave.
[Max and Isabel are waiting in the jeep for Michael, he hops in]
ISABEL: Where's your stuff??
MICHAEL: I'm wearin' it.
[Liz is on her bed studying, Maria comes in and gets in front of her, dressed for the crash]
MARIA: Before I go to this idiotic crash festival I want to know everything. And if you don't tell
me the truth right now. I'm going to go to Valenti myself and tell him everything I know.
LIZ: What do you know?
MARIA: Well....uh, I-I know that Max was in the diner that day, and I know that he went up to
you when you were shot and like, did something to you. And I know that the one person in the
world that I thought I could completely trust, is lying to me.
LIZ: You have to promise me that you are not going to flip out.
MARIA: Flip out? Hey, it's me.
[We see Maria running screaming from the cafe with Liz right behind her.]
LIZ: Maria!!
[In the jeep]
MICHAEL: So is this picture what we're seeing is there's more of us?
MAX: One more, at least there was in 1959.
MICHAEL: Well then there's hope. I mean if we can find him, he can tell us where we came
from, what we are-
ISABEL: Michael calm down, we had one potential relative 40 years ago, all we know about him
is he was a potential killer.
[In Maria's car]
MARIA: Liz, Liz what happened to you? You were on this whole like, valedictorian path. You
were on your way to be like, this world renowned scientist and I was gonna be your wacky
friend. I can't be a wacky friend to someone who's already whacky!! It'd be like repetitious....
LIZ: Maria you're babbling.
MARIA: I think I've earned the right to babble, all right so just deal with it.
[Max, Isabel, and Michael drive past]
LIZ: Oh my God Maria that's them!! Cut a U-ie!
MARIA: Cut a U-ie?
LIZ: Maria!
MARIA: Who are you? I mean.....
[Liz grabs the wheel and makes Maria do a U-turn in the middle of the road.]
MARIA: Oh my God, you're a crazy person.
LIZ: Maria I am not!! Please, just catch them!!
MARIA: Catch them? Liz, we're in a Jetta.
[Max and clan see Valenti patrolling and hastily Max turns down a side alley, that is blocked by
another car, but before they can back up, Maria pulls in, blocking the path with her car.]
ISABEL: Great.
[Liz and Maria get out and start to walk towards them, Max, Isabel and Michael follow suit.]
MARIA: What are they doing here? No, don't tell me there's three.
LIZ: Well.....
MARIA: I think I'm gonna be sick.
LIZ: Maria knows.
MICHAEL: Unbelievable.
MARIA: Look, I promise I won't tell anyone.
[Michael advances on them and Maria backs up behind Liz]
MICHAEL: Get your car out of the way, NOW.
LIZ: I really don't think that you should try to leave. It's just gonna show people that you're guilty.
MICHAEL: Guilty of what? Saving your life?
MAX: Michael....
LIZ: Look, I think I have an idea here. If we can just all work together here maybe we can throw
Valenti off.
MICHAEL: We're not together. Our lives are at stake, not yours. Now move your car.
MAX: Michael, this can't last forever. This secret, and I don't want it to.
LIZ: Look I can't change what happened. But if you run, Valenti is gonna know it's you. You'll be
proving it for him.
MAX: She's right.
ISABEL: I should've known you'd side with her.
MAX: Isabel I'm not on anyone's side all right.
ISABEL: Get on a side Max because time is running out.
MAX: She should move her car. I'm turning myself into Valenti.
MICHAEL: Max we said we were leaving.
ISABEL: Max I can't leave without you.
ISABEL: What's your idea?
[Liz goes to Kyle's house.]
KYLE: I waited for you for an hour and a half.
LIZ: Kyle, I know I've been acting like a real jerk and, I'm sorry. (gives him a cute innocent look)
[At the festival, Maria and Isabel are walking together, Alex passes.]
ISABEL: Nice mask Alex.
ALEX: Isabel, hey. Maria.
MARIA: Hey.
ALEX: Uh, nice cones.
[At Kyle's.]
KYLE: Liz we don't even have to go to the crash.
LIZ: Kyle it is gonna be great okay.
[She kisses him]
LIZ: I am gonna meet you in front of the podium in half an hour, right?
KYLE: Right. Half an hour.
LIZ: Yea.
[She goes behind a tree and calls Max.]
[In the jeep, with Michael and Max]
LIZ: We're got half an hour.
MAX: Got it. Well....
MICHAEL: It won't work.
[At the festival, Valenti and his deputy are looking for Max]
VALENTI: Where is he?
DEPUTY: There. What did this kid do Jim?
VALENTI: I'll take it from here Owen.
[Maria and Isabel in the parking lot]
ISABEL: Come on roll!
MARIA: OK, I'm rolling.
ISABEL: Roll!!
MARIA: I'm rolling!! Okay?
ISABEL: Right that's better. Keys?
MARIA: Okay, I know my mom's car doesn't look like much, but, not destroying it is the key to
my and my mother's relationship okay?
ISABEL: Whatever.
[Valenti approaches Max]
VALENTI: I have some questions for you.
MAX: What kind of questions?
VALENTI: Where you at the CrashDown Cafe the day of the shooting?
MAX: Yes.
VALENTI: What did you do to Liz Parker?
MAX: I didn't do anything to her.
VALENTI: I don't believe that.
[He handcuffs Max]
MAX: Aren't you going to read me my rights?
VALENTI: Do you have any??
[Meanwhile, Liz bumps the two tourists from the cafe and they follow her. Isabel pretends to run
over Maria with the car and runs off]
[Liz runs up]
LIZ: Maria!
ALEX: What's going on? What are you, what are you doing??
VALENTI: What happened here??
[There is a silver handprint on her chest.]
VALENTI: Are you okay?
MARIA: Yea, I think so.
DEPUTY: There he goes. Sheriff, there he is. There's the guy that went up to her that's him.
VALENTI: Watch the kid.
[Valenti follows him, the person in the same outfit he sees and goes up to is Kyle]
KYLE: Dad, scared the hell outta me. You seen Liz around? She was supposed to meet me here
like 15 minutes ago.
VALENTI: No.
KYLE: Mmmmmkay.
[Michael throws his outfit away in a port-a-pottie.]
[Valenti is questioning Max, he throws him against a portable trailer]
VALENTI: You think you're a smart guy don't you?
MAX: I don't know what you're talking about.
VALENTI: Don't play games with me Mr. Evans, this is paint.
[He holds up the hand he touched the silver handprint on Maria with]
VALENTI: You went up to Liz Parker in that cafe and you did something to her, and I need to
know what it was.
MAX: I had a hamburger, when the gun went off I ran away. Did I break the law?? Sheriff are
you arresting me??
VALENTI: No, your parents would have you out in an hour. Let me tell you something. I'm
gonna find out what the truth is. You can count on it. You're a real smart guy Max. Well, so am
I.
[He walks off]
[Jonathan Frakes counts off the seconds to the crash]
FRAKES: Is everybody ready!! 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1. Blastoff! Yah!!
[The little spacecraft takes off and crashes, sending smoldering alien bodies all around.]
FRAKES: YEA!!!!
[Isabel, Michael and Max all watch sullen]
[Max sees Liz and goes to talk to her]
MAX: Hey.
LIZ: Hey.
[Max walks up and pushes a stray piece of hair behind her ear]
LIZ: Oh.
MAX: You had a, uh....
LIZ: Hair thing, right. Thanks.
MAX: Sure. Liz, it's not safe. I mean, for you and , and me to....it's not safe.
LIZ: I don't care.
MAX: Liz I really, really wish that this could be something, you know, more. But it can't. We're
just...
LIZ: Different.
MAX: Yea.
MAX: I'll see ya at school.
LIZ: Max??
LIZ: I never got to thank you, for saving my life.
MAX: Thank you.
VOICE-OVER: It's September 24th, I'm Liz Parker and five days ago I died. But then the really
amazing thing happened. I came to life.
