To that, I have no answer. It would be a really great trick if they were. Or maybe it is simply that they honestly believe that. Sure, Anna is going around carefully manipulating public opinion to win the affections of the humans of the world, but regardless of her true intent, good or ill, she would want to do this so that interaction can continue. Just because she knows just how to get what she wants does not mean that she wants to annihilate all humans.
We learned from Ryan (Morris Chestnut)'s former ally that the Vs are hooked up to something directly from Anna which gives them bliss. Maybe Anna wishes to use the same thing on humans to take away all their tension and anger - it may well be to then use them as slaves, but drugging them into unaware happiness is not such a terrible plan for that.
I also wonder what they know about Erica (Elizabeth Mitchell). Though Dale (Alan Tudyk) did remember that she was his partner and that she had seen his face, Joshua (Mark Hildreth*) prevented his superiors from finding this out. Joshua, like Ryan, is a member of the 5th column, the V resistance. So Joshua knows Erica's predisposition towards the V, but does Anna?
Her daughter, Lisa (Laura Vandervoort), is romancing Tyler (Logan Huffman) for some nefarious part of Anna's plan. But was that look at the end of the episode an indication that Lisa has feelings for Tyler that might thwart those plans?
Who can we trust? Who is a V, and what does it mean to be a V? Clearly some of them have a great hate for humanity, while others like us, and still others, Anna in particular, have some sort of plan or use for us. Where is all this going to take our heroes, and when will we discover that their intentions are no more pure than anyone elses?
What are your thoughts?
