[ Description ]

The episode begins at Alex's house where he is speaking on the phone with Isabel. In the background, we watch as Liz and Maria use props and body language in order to send the message for him to "stay strong" against the tempting date which Isabel has proposed. Isabel and Alex hang up; Maria and Liz show Alex how proud they are of him. Maria quickly changes the subject and notes that Max kissed Tess at the prom. Liz suggests they "just go to work." Maria agrees. As they exit, they meet a delivery boy at the door who explains he has food for Alex. Liz and Maria exit as Alex makes his way to the hallway where he uses a credit card to pay for the food. Feeling that the food is cold, Alex becomes very depressed and starts to act strange. "Why does life have to be so wrong...why does everything have to be a lie?" Alex asks the delivery boy as he exits. The scene shifts to Alex, who is now eating his food in his bedroom. He glances at a picture of Isabel and picks it up.

Valenti pulls up to an ambulance where it is obvious that there has been a horrible accident. Upon his exit of the car, Deputy Hanson explains to Valenti that the car was involved in a high-speed, head-on collision. When Valenti asks if there are any fatalities, Hanson replies that there was just one; Valenti then asks if it was anyone he knew. Hanson doesn't say anything, however, he lets Valenti investigate the car where it is obvious that someone important has died.

Crash. Maria drops a pile of plates on the floor as Max and Michael bicker over which movie is better: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon or The Matrix. Meanwhile, Liz calculates some stuff and notices Kyle, Tess and Isabel looking at pictures from the prom. The camera follows Maria to the back room where Valenti is standing in the doorway. "What?" Maria asks. All of a sudden, we hear a loud scream from the back room as Maria dashes out into Liz's arm. She begins to cry as Valenti follows her out and announces Alex's death.

The gang watches a van as it brings Alex's body to the city morgue. Valenti redirects the drivers into the building while Max quickly makes his way to the van. He opens the door as Isabel narrates his every intended movie. Inside the van, Max unzips Alex's body bag and places his hand over Alex's body. Suddenly, the door opens and we watch as Max exits alone. In the background, the morgue workers return to the van. Max and Valenti walk back towards the gang. Valenti tells them that they should all return to their homes as the morgue workers take Alex's body out of the van and proceed to move it into the morgue. Maria becomes hysterical and Max stares at his hand. The group disperses and Tess instructs Max to go after Isabel. Max approaches Liz first, however, but she has nothing to say to him; she, as well, tells Max to go after Isabel. Tess leaves with Kyle and Valenti as Liz just stares in grief.

The next morning at Valenti's we watch as Kyle makes his way out of bed. It is obvious he hasn't slept. Valenti walks in as we watch Kyle do his daily push-ups. Valenti sits down next to him and explains that although it is not a very happy day at all he would like Kyle to have a happy birthday.

The scene shifts to the Crashdown, where Alex enters and Isabel is at the counter crying. He approaches Isabel and when she realizes who is standing next to her, Isabel hugs Alex and explains that she thought he was dead. Alex explains that it was all just a big misunderstanding and proceeds to ask Isabel her choice on college. She states that she is going to stay because she wouldn't want to be away from Alex any longer. Alex thanks Isabel for the compliment and exits, explaining that he has band practice. The scene shifts to Isabel lying in her bed. Mrs. Evans is instructing her to wake up, and when she finally does, Isabel notes that it was all just a dream.

At Maria's, she and her mother sit on the couch with a box of tissues holding each other. The phone rings and Michael answers it. It's Sean, who tries to joke around with Michael, however, Michael tells him their situation and so he quickly becomes very sympathetic. Sean explains that he has a court case and that he must stay at the courthouse a little longer. At the Crashdown, Mrs. Deluca answers a phone call. She believes it is Sean, however, it is Max. Mrs. Deluca asks Max how he is doing since he and Alex were so close to each other. Max corrects her, explaining that Liz was much closer to Alex than he was. Max then asks about Liz's condition; Mrs. Deluca explains that she is going through denial. Liz has taken off and the scene shifts to a junkyard, where Liz files through cars until finding the one she is looking for. As she peeks inside Alex's car, it is obvious that although damage was done, the area where Alex was sitting was not terribly impacted. Liz spots a photo lying on a seat. She picks it up and we notice that it is the same picture Alex held in his room after she and Maria left. This time, however, Alex's head is cut out of the picture.

Meanwhile, Valenti and Hanson try to interrogate the other driver who was involved in Alex's crash. This man, who is still injured, tells Valenti that Alex deliberately swerved into his lane. At the Evan's, Isabel's mother tries to comfort her daughter as she blames herself for Alex's death. Mrs. Evans tells Isabel that although his death is tragic and painful to them all, the accident was not her fault. There is a bit of a pause and finally Isabel explains that she has to get out of there. When Mrs. Evans asks Isabel where she would like to go, Isabel replies that there is something she needs to tell her.

In school, Liz passes Alex's locker where the student body has made a shrine for him. Maria approaches Liz from behind and they share a hug. They each ask each other how they are holding up and it is obvious that both girls are devastated by the loss of their dear friend. Liz then pulls out the picture she found in Alex's car. Maria becomes distraught by both the picture and Liz after she suggests, "this means something."

In another room, Valenti asks the delivery boy a couple of questions. The boy does not really know too much, but notes that Alex seemed really depressed and pissed off. He then tells Valenti that it seemed as though Alex felt like the end of the world was coming. A bell rings and Deputy Hanson enters as the boy leaves. He explains to Valenti that after talking with his teachers, there is a strong possibility that Alex may have been so depressed that he committed suicide.

Outside the school, we see another shrine set up by students as the camera pans to under the bleachers, where Max and Tess are talking. Max explains to her what he saw when looking at Alex's body in the van. According to him, there was lots of blood and his skin was very cold. Maria, Michael and Isabel approach them as Michael announces that the school has brought in a grief counsellor who has all of their names. Maria complains about all the people sobbing over Alex's who really never cared about him when he was alive. Just then, Kyle approaches and announces that Mr. Whitman called his house earlier in the day asking if Max, Michael and he would act as pallbearers at the funeral. They both agree.

Meanwhile, the delivery boy reinterprets what he saw the night Alex died to some of his friends. He explains that it was obvious Alex was on his way out of this lifetime. Liz interrupts, asking whether or not that is fact. The group disperses as Liz asks the delivery boy whether or not he can answer some questions for her. The scene shifts back to the gang where Isabel formally makes the announcement that she will be leaving Roswell for college in June. Max and Michael begin to argue with her and Maria asks that they not talk about it right now.

Liz asks the delivery boy some questions. It is obvious that he does not have too many answers for her, as his meeting with Alex was quite short. Liz tells the boy that if he remembers anything at all he should contact her at the Crashdown.

At Valenti's office, Liz shows him the picture from which Alex's head is missing. Liz tells Valenti that she knows it means something. Valenti has an idea as well, and warns Liz that she is not going to like what he is about to say. Valenti finally spills his theory to Liz: Alex might have committed suicide considering that through the investigation they have found it was his car, which swerved into the other lane. Liz refuses to believe this and so Valenti further explains the report on Alex's mental state over the last couple of weeks. Although it tears him up to say it, Valenti persists that defacing his own picture fits the puzzle. Liz walks out. On her walk home, Liz makes her way to the Evans' house, where Max greets her at the door. Since Liz doesn't want to be alone, she asks Max if she can stay with him that night.

In Max's room, Liz explains to Max what Valenti told her. Max tells her that his ideas are crazy since Alex would never do such a thing. Liz rambles on about how the news will make its way to the newspaper and so Max promises to speak with Valenti. Finally, Liz breaks down and begins to cry on the bed. Max tells her once again that he will handle the situation and suggests for Liz to eat.

Meanwhile, at Maria's, Michael enters with a glass of "tea" for Mrs. Deluca. When she explains that she does not want any more tea, Michael tells her that it is really rum which will help her to sleep. Michael explains how his father taught him to mix drinks. Mrs. Deluca asks him if Maria is still sleeping and he replies that she is. She then tells Michael that he has really been great with helping them through this painful time. Mrs. Deluca also notes that Michael is welcomed in her house anytime.

Isabel has another dream in which she apologizes to Alex for all the wrongs she's ever done him. Alex is accepting but tells her that she really has nothing to be sorry for. When Isabel asks whether or not she'll ever see him again, Alex explains that it is up to her. He also notes that he would rather not come back as he is hurting Isabel. They kiss and hold hands. Finally, Alex makes his way to the door where Isabel calls out to him and says that she loves him. He reminds her that they both know how much Alex loves her too.

Max and Liz chat about Alex over a bowl of macaroni and cheese. Soon enough, mention of the prom comes up and so Liz notes to Max that she saw him kissing Tess. She further explains that they have both made a decision to move on and that she is OK with the kiss. On her way out, Liz thanks Max for his time and makes him promise to always be her friend. Max tells her that he always will be.

The next day, we watch short clips of all the major characters making their way to Alex's funeral as Maria sings "Amazing Grace." The scene, as well as the song, concludes after a few shots from the funeral ceremony. The scene shifts to Max, who is speaking with Valenti. Max argues with Valenti over Alex's death, which prompts Valenti to pull out the investigation file on Alex.

At Alex's house, there is a gathering for all of his friends and family. Liz makes her way outside where she speaks with Alex's father. She gives him her sympathy and Mr. Whitman explains how much she and Maria meant to Alex. Liz then asks whether or not she can go sit in Alex's room. Upstairs, we watch as Liz strings a guitar. She speaks to Alex, telling him that she needs some kind of sign from him. She finally finds this sign after reading a passage from a book, which contains two tickets to a concert.

Downstairs, Liz has gathered everyone in order to tell them what she has found. Liz explains that although Valenti and Hanson are about to write Alex's death off as a suicide, he did not truly kill himself. Max is a little sceptical, however, and tells Liz that Valenti showed him the file. Liz becomes upset with Max since she thought he sided with her instead of Valenti. With this, Liz explains to the gang that she found tickets for a concert that very same night. Liz suggests that Alex had probably meant to take Isabel, and since you don't make plans for a future if you know you're not going to have one, he couldn't have committed suicide. Michael suggests that as far as everyone in the room knows, Alex did not kill himself. Instead, it was just an accident. Liz assures them that Alex has been murdered. Max asks who could possibly want to murder him and so Liz explains that it might be someone with a grudge against him, or possibly, even an alien. Max tells Liz that is not the case, and Liz reminds them that nothing is ever what it seems. This angers Isabel and Liz further suggests that Alex may have been murdered by "Kivar," a character from the alien's old planet who wants to bring Isabel (or "Vilandra") back. Max informs Liz that she really knows nothing about them or their planet; Liz suggests to him that if an alien really killed Alex, the aliens would be to blame. With Max's lead, Tess, Isabel, and Michael leave the room. Liz explains to the remaining gang that she knows they are responsible and will find out the truth.

At the Crashdown, Liz remembers Alex through music and pictures. We next find Liz at a booth looking at the picture the gang took before the prom. Liz begins to sob. Suddenly, there is a knock on the door and it is the delivery boy. He explains to Liz that he thought about what she said and came directly over. He then shows Liz a credit card receipt, which Alex signed for when paying for the food. The credit card company rejected it because of the way Alex signed it. Liz looks at it and reads some kind of code to make out the same passage she read from the book on Alex's desk:

"I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep."
