Beautiful
9 February 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Liz Parker was working at the Crashdown café when she gets shot during an altercation. A classmate of hers, that happens to have a crush on her, rushes to her side and miraculously saves her from death. After that she begins questioning and Max can't resist telling her the truth about him. He, his sister and Michael are not from Earth, but survivors of the 1947 UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico. At first she freaks out, but then she realizes she feels much more alive after Max saved her. And she helps him get away from the Sheriff's truth suspecting hand of injustice.

You can clearly see love blooming between Liz and her out-of-this-world Romeo. He let her see some of his memories and she was impressed by his thoughts and Liz felt the way he's seeing her: Beautiful.

In some ways the plot is stupid, but it proves only that they are teenage orphaned extraterrestrials, it gives you the feeling that everything is so natural. It's seducing the way it started.

In this episode, we learn about Max, Isabel and Michael. Also Max learns that he can rely on Liz to protect his secret.
