TEXT: "Skins and Bones" 23rd Episode of Roswell Production Code: 2ADA01 [SCENE_BREAK] (The episode begins with a scene in the desert.

(We see Liz get shot and Max healing her) Max: You broke the bottle when you fell. You broke it by yourself. Don't say anything, please? (Max is now voicing over more flashbacks from the first season) Max (V.O.): The 6 of us were connected by the secret we shared. There was also Tess, a hybrid like us...part human, part alien.
