incubation pods left by their alien parents. Max and Isabel had the good luck
of being adopted by two loving parents, having no idea of where they are
from. While their parents suspect something only their mother tried to do
something to find out. Max, along with Isabel feels a real sense of loyalty
to their parents, and a sense of "home," on earth. Max fears that healing Liz
brought suspicion on him and the threat of exposure.
