The Stranded
Gieren; Janus; Dzin; Drum [David Rûmecj]; Brooke Dawson; Tamree; Professor Zante
Janus and Dzin are trying to find a particular sleeper. When it turns out that Gieren is not the one, Janus kills him with a touch. For Tamree, this is the seventh of her sleepers killed in three days. From the pattern, she deduces that Drum will be the next target. Drum (David) is about to marry Brooke when Janus arrives. Sensing the danger, Tamree telepathically removes the psi-blocks on his brain to allow him to use his powers to defend himself.

The Stranded
Tamree; Drum; Brooke; Janus; Dzin; Cullen
In the heat of battle--and courtesy of me--Drum suddenly remembers.
Tamree barely manages to help Drum escape Janus' attack. Tamree explains that they are members of an alien race massacred by the Forgotten. Drum is one of the surviving members hidden on Earth with false memories of a human life that did not exist. When Tamree goes to protect Cullen, the next sleeper targeted by Janus, she encounters Dzin, who looks like Tamree herself.

The Stranded
Endo [Andy]; Sisera [Cecily Regan]; Tamree; Janus; Drum; Cullen; Dzin
As Dzin attacks Tamree in a mind duel, she reveals that Zante made the Anchors (like Tamree) out of the same genetic material. Dzin is from an egg that wasn't considered viable and she hates Tamree because she never got a real body. Meanwhile, Drum decides to ignore his orders to wait for Tamree and rushes in to help. His help, along with the release of Cullen's latent powers, allow Tamree to escape.

Sisera [Cecily Regan]; Endo [Andy]; Tamree; Janus; Dzin; Cullen; Drum
What will it be like on Earth, Tamree?
Professor Zante was experimenting with 'dangerous stuff' towards the end and, since Sisera was the last of the sleepers to be given their powers, she was given the ability to create a chaos wave that can literally destroy everything in its path. Having read Tamree's mind, Dzin knows this and wants to use Sisera as a weapon. Tamree is more concerned that Janus and Dzin may wake her before she is ready and Sisera may not be able to control her power.

Sisera [Cecily Regan]; Tamree; Cullen; Drum; Janus [John Sewell]; Dzin; Professor Zante
Now, the paintings in this gallery approach the theme of man and nature from a very different perspective.
Sisera's powers manifest as she grieves over Endo's death and she can't control them. Tamree and the awakened sleepers try to fight their way through Janus and Dzin to reach her, but appear to be failing. Then Tamree tells Janus the truth about who he really is and he realizes his life has been a lie, just like the sleepers. Drum helps calm Sisera to alleviate the crisis on Earth, but Tamree has been transported home where she learns Professor Zante is planning to use the sleepers to invade Earth.
