The Deception
gs: Nicky Katt (Sean Donovan) Howard K. Smith (Himself) Randall Brady (Unknown) Sandy Lang (Alien Captain)
While attempting to make her way back home, Robin meets a young motorcyclist, Kyle Bates, and witnesses the delivery of an important pouch from a downed fighter pilot. Kyle takes her to safety, and then takes the pouch to Resistance headquarters.
Apparently, the World Liberation Front wants to move Elizabeth to the safety of New York before the Visitors get to her. Once Kyle meets Elizabeth, he becomes involved in the Resistance.
Realizing the plans to move Elizabeth, Diana orders the capture of Donovan and creates an elaborate deception to get the information she needs: Using holographic generators, Diana poses as Julie and convinces Donovan that the war has been over for a year. But Diana's plan goes astray when she shows Donovan a newspaper clip of Elizabeth shown as a child, and not as a teen-age woman. Donovan escapes and foils Diana's plot moments before they can reach Elizabeth.
Also, Sean Donovan is given a commission in Diana's Visitor Guard, while Bates and his son Kyle disagree about the elder's collaboration with the Visitors.

NOTE: The alternate episode to Breakout, this reintroduces Kyle Bates to the viewers. It all gets very confusing when you realise that when the series is shown now (and indeed on video) both episodes are shown in this order, so we meet Kyle in the prison camp, then we get this rather insipid reintroduction to him. Lots of head-scratching if you weren't aware of the reasons behind it. Meanwhile, the episode suffers mainly from a very silly main plot, though the notion that Donovan realised it was a deception through Diana's ignorance of Elizabeth's metamorphosis is a very clever touch. Sean Donovan has aged considerably in just a year, it would seem.
