Roswell · Season 2
You're scared to go home.
What is home? Is home really up there? I just feel like this whole idea about where we come from, and I want to believe it. I want to understand it more and more, but it just feels like this dream... this, this dream that I can never really quite touch or see or...feel. And earth just seems so much more... real.
Michael. The idea that Alex might have died just because we're here... I can't bear it. All those times you would run off chasing some clue to find out where we come from. Why we're here. Where we belong. I always thought you were chasing something that wasn't out there, because in my heart, I believed that we belonged here, you know? That we were human. Lately, I've been thinking that you might have been right all along.
Lately, I've been thinking I might have been wrong all along.
I can't count on you.
Yes, you can. I'll take care of this. I mean, I'm right here for you.
But you won't always be.
What?
One day you're gonna leave me. You're gonna get on a spaceship and go away, and you being the perfect boyfriend right now is really not helping me. I can't lose anyone else, Michael. My heart can't handle it.
That was weird.
What was?
Maria just hung up on me.
Happens to me all the time.
I always thought when we graduated I would give you my ring. [handing her the pendant they found at Atherton's] It looks like I won't graduate, so this is something from where I'll be.
I can't believe that this is what I have of you. I can't believe that after everything...
Liz, you never slept with Kyle, did you?
[Liz shakes her head no.]
I wish, I wish this all could have been different. I wish that so much. [kisses her]
I guess that this is our goodbye. Just tell me one thing: do you love her?
Not like I love you.
What if I said I wanted to stay?
When we came out of the pods and we lost Michael, it was just the two of us in the desert and I knew that I wasn't alone, that I had my sister. To me, earth isn't home and whatever's out there isn't home, but you're my home.
There's a lot about you, Maria. There's a lot about you, but I think what means the most to me is that you're open. You know I can look into your eyes and I can see you. I can see what you're thinking. I can see what you're feeling. How much I mean to you sometimes, how much I piss you off sometimes. But I can always see you.
I see you, too.
No, no you don't see me. You know when Max and Liz would kiss, and Liz would get the flashes? And when we would kiss, you didn't. I know how much that hurt you.
That doesn't matter to me any more, Michael.
The reason you didn't get the flashes is because I didn't let you get them. I didn't let you see me. I've never let anyone see me before... because there are things inside of me that I don't want people to see. There's things inside of me that I'm not so proud of. But I've thought about it, and I want you to see me.
Max... I can't go. Ever since we came out of the pods, I've been on some quest to figure out where I belong. I finally found home. The weird thing is, it's here, it's on earth.
[to Liz] I've been really wrong about a lot. But I was right about one thing: To get you into my life, to be around you, to love you.
