With their mating limited to a nine-year interval, the aliens put a good deal of risk into ensuring that their offspring survive. Meanwhile, Suzanne's ex-husband tries to get close to her again for the sake of a scoop, but his interference has been set in motion by someone who has a history with the Blackwood Project and the aliens.

Episode Notes
 
Number 23: Cash meets his informant in room number 23 of the sauna.
 
The aliens are oviparous animals, meaning that they lay eggs and not carry the embryo within the mother. The novelisation of "The Resurrection" mentions a third sex that carries the young, but there is no evidence in this episode to support this.
 
 
Episode Quotes
 
Cash: But why me? Why not Woodward and Bernstein?
Quinn: Oh, don't get me started on those two ungrateful bastards.
 
Ironhorse: Mail call.
Suzanne: I'll take one. Present company excluded, of course.
Ironhorse: Excuse me?
Suzanne: Oh, Paul, why is it my jokes always send you into denial?
 
Advocate #2: These humans are treacherous.
Advocate #3: We'll be doing a great service for the entire universe to kill each and every one of these revolting human beings.
Advocate #1: Death to all humans!
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
When talking to Harrison about the alien transmissions sounding like baby talk, Norton is slumped forward when the camera is facing him, but is upright when it's facing his back.
 
Randy Atmadja's first name is strangely misspelled as 'Handy'.
 
Robert Bidaman has his last name in the credits misspelled as 'Bibaman'.
 
 
Cultural References
 
The dialogue between Quinn and Cash allude to the idea that Quinn is Deep Throat. Deep Throat was a secret informant that tipped Washington Post reporters Woodward and Bernstein to a break-in at Watergate that ultimately led to the resignation of president Richard Nixon. For several years the identity of the informant remained a mystery and the subject of much speculation. However on May 31, 2005, Associate Director of the FBI Mark Felt revealed that he was the legendary Deep Throat.
