After discovering an Air Force officer named Paxton in a wet suit and barely alive at the ranger station, Russell begins to question what befell the man when he notices his wounds are identical to Dave's. But Russell soon finds out that he's not the only one interested in Paxton when Sheriff Underlay and Larkin both begin to question the man's mysterious circumstances. Meanwhile Mariel finds something unexplainable protruding from Paxton's wounds, Russell's curiosity about the strange skeleton grows, and Underlay continues to push for a town quarantine.

It confuses me because they sometimes make it seem like she knows it and sometimes not :(

How could the thing in her not know what it is? That's what's confusing...

Yeah - although like it's clear some of the other people need to be told (by the Sheriff) so maybe they don't. But then, what's the point of the 'invasion' if they don't know what they are?

Well in the last episode we get the idea that Underlay was killed and replaced, and if I'm not mistaken the invaders take over the dead bodies...so maybe the memories of the original effect them somehow?

Wouldn't it be cool if they were spirits or something rather than aliens? Or spirits of aliens? lol. Because Body Snatchers from outer space is just cliche.
