Alien Nation “The Lost Episode”

According to the comic, this is what would have been the first episode in the second season of Alien Nation if it had gone at least two seasons. It takes up right after the cliffhanger from season 1. It's an adaptation of “Soul Train,” which was the working title for the episode.

Emily and Susan are still in the hospital, victims of a bio-weapon that some Purist has developed. The teacher Buck was having a relationship with has been transferred from the school. George and Matt get over their differences from the last episode.

There's quite a bit of time spent in relation to Matt's view of the need for Emily to have a priest give her a baptism and whether or not there is an after life in relation to Tenctonese religious views.

There's another betrayal by someone who works at the station. The Purists plan to spray all of Los Angeles with the bio-weapon to kill all the Newcomers in the city, but the plan is stopped. George also comes near dying before a method can be found to combat the infection.

It would have made a good episode for TV.
