Favorite Episode of S2 in V

[Glove]

What was your favorite episode in the Second Season of ABC's V?
Why? Discuss. Poll included.

Last year, I did a 'Favorite Scene' thread because there were more
than 10 episodes. I don't have to go that far this year.
I realize that someone else created a similar thread prematurely.
With a little patience...they could have covered the entire season.
Here are descriptions of each episode:

Red Rain
Continues the action from last season's finale when Anna unleashed
Red Sky on the planet. With the world on the brink of war and chaos
all around, is there anyone who can stand up to Anna? Meanwhile,
Ryan has been kept in isolation on the mothership, away from his
hybrid baby so that Anna can experiment on her. Chad, seeking
redemption for being used by Anna, now wants to fight with the
Fifth Column, and Erica goes on a journey to find a scientist who
can give her the answers to what the Red Sky is, and where she
learns the horrifying secret of what the V's are doing to our planet.

Serpent's Tooth
Anna and Diana (Jane Badler from the original V) square off in the
bowels of the Mothership-Diana has been there for 15 years and
not had a single glimpse of Anna. Meanwhile, Erica has Tyler's
blood analyzed, and learns the V's did something sinister to her
when she was pregnant with him.

Laid Bare
Erica learns her partner, Malik, is a Visitor and must fight for her
life-literally-to stop Anna from finding out she's Fifth Column.
Meanwhile, Anna learns that Malik is missing and orders Ryan
to find her, while Lisa realizes her body is beginning to change,
causing her to become more and more like her mother.

Unholy Alliance
After a radical faction of the Fifth Column murders three Peace
Ambassadors, Erica goes on a mission to hunt down their leader,
Eli Cohn, a former Mossad Agent. Meanwhile, Jack and other
priests around the globe begin to speak out against the Visitors.
Anna heads to the Vatican in an effort to convince the leaders of
organized religion that the Visitors truly are "Of peace".

Concordia
Anna uses her newest gift to mankind, "Concordia", as a cover
to hide an invading fleet of breeding vessels that will be used to
ensure the perpetuation of Visitors for future generations.
Meanwhile, Eli Cohn tries to convince Erica and the Fifth Column
that the "Concordia" gala is the perfect time to assassinate Anna.

Siege
Enraged at the increasing audacity of the Fifth Column attacks,
Anna enlists Ryan in an attempt to wipe out the Fifth Column in
one fell swoop. Meanwhile, Father Travis, following Vatican orders,
asks Jack to leave the church, and Lisa meets her grandmother
Diana for the first time.

Birth Pangs
Erica, seeking revenge against Anna, heads to China to carry out
a mission to strike a lethal blow against Anna. Meanwhile, Anna
learns that Tyler's phoshorous level is too low-even after Red Rain-
and he might become useless to her. Lisa and Diana bond, beginning
to form an alliance against Anna.

Uneasy Lies the Head
Erica, now officially in charge of the global Fifth Column, leads
them in a high risk attack against Anna. Anna meanwhile, growing
closer in her plan to destroy humanity, finds a major obstacle in
a certain Live-Aboard candidate; and Ryan sneaks back onto the
Mothership to try and rescue his daughter.

Devil in a Blue Dress
Anna is about to pull the switch on the planet's first Blue Energy
Reactor, but Sid realizes that the size of the reactor is much too
large for just the various Concordia sites-the Fifth Column needs
to figure out what Anna is really up to. And Diana tells Lisa she
must act against Anna now, fulfill her destiny and save humans
from annihilation.

Mother's Day
Anna is focused on having Lisa breed with Tyler to ensure the
evolution of the Visitors, while Erica and Diana enlist Lisa to
stage a coup against Anna and remove her from power before
humanity is destroyed. Erica and the Fifth Column join Lisa
in the attempted coup, which has devastating results. Marc
Singer (from the original V), will guest star as Lars Tremont,
a member of a top secret organization of high-ranking
military and government leaders from around the globe who
have suspected that the Visitors are very much not
here in peace.

Thanks for the articulate writeups, I enjoyed reading them to refresh my memory

The answer, however, is obvious...

Seige - no contest.

I'll second that vote. The three episodes following 'Siege' seem to
fall flat. This was actually the weakest part of the season.
'Mother's Day' and 'Laid Bare' were also very strong episodes
in Season Two.

"Mother's Day" gave me my Erica back, had Jane Badler and Marc Singer in the same episode, ended with Jack and Erica together, and had Anna prove her villainy by killing Diana, so it got my vote.

Other faves? "Siege", "Laid Bare", and "Unholy Alliance".

I voted for "Laid Bare" it was between that and the season opener, I really liked the skinning it was gory sure but that's what this show should be at times

[Lightning Strykez!]

1.) Siege
2.) Laid Bare
3.) Mother's Day
4.) Unholy Alliance
5.) Red Rain

These are my top 5. Can you imagine how HOT this season would've been if it'd started OUT with "Siege", and then followed by Laid Bare, etc.?

I liked all the episodes this season. I thought they were all fast paced, the exception being Devil With the Blue Dress ON. This episode was probably setting up the finale. My favorite was Concordia, Unholy Alliance, The Siege. Red Rain because I waited 8 months to watch it, and Mothers Day. I think Mothers Day will be a cult classic in years t come. Mothers Day had one of the best lines of any series I have seen "tHats how you kill your Mother". Then when Erica finds Jack looking up into the sky and the audience watching the V's ships coming to destroy humanity. I believe this will be the episode people will remember. I know a lot of people love the original and I remember the original, I really like the new version better. I sure hope we get to see a third season.
