Hey Reggie! Great advice about wearing seat belts! Sorry about your vehicle. Glad you only sustained bruises and are looking forward to getting another car!

In the story of Roswell, I appreciate that the jeep was later outfitted with a roll bar, and that the characters use their seat belts.

Nicholas wasn’t Kivar’s representative. Nicholas showed up at the Summit meeting uninvited. Nicholas lied about representing Kivar.

The Skins arrived on Earth in 1950, after the 1947 crash. The Skins were sent to Earth and forced to live in husks, as punishment from Kivar. The Skins had no way off Earth.

Greer, at the end of Harvest, says they (the Skins) are all as good as dead. If Kivar had left the Skins on Earth with a spaceship or with the material and the expertise to build a spaceship, then the Skins wouldn’t all have been as good as dead, after their husks were destroyed. If the Skins had been in good standing with Kivar, they could have been rescued by Kivar, after Courtney destroyed their new husks. But the Skins knew that Kivar wouldn’t rescue them, and they knew they had no way off Earth, without the Granilith. That’s why they needed the Granilith. Thus, we know that the Skins were Kivar’s enemies, as well as enemies (with the exception of Courtney to Michael) of the Royal Four.

We can also see at the Summit that Nicholas arrived uninvited by the Summit members. A woman Summit member turns aside, when Nicholas arrives uninvited. Nicholas knew about the meeting, because he located the Dupes, who were decoys. The decoy Dupes had been found and contacted by the Summit members, after the orbs led enemies and outsiders to the Dupes, after Max, Michael, Isabel, and Tess used the orbs.

The Summit members had wanted King Zan to rule, instead of Kivar. The Summit members hadn’t been able to find peace with Kivar around, in the 50+ years, since the death of the King Zan. The Summit members expended great amounts of their resources, in the hopes that Max/King Zan could help them. Max wasn’t in a position to be able to help them. He wisely refused Nicholas’ phony offer.

Even the most doting of mothers knows whether or not her children are spoiled or are brats. No one would bother to re-create brats or spoiled children. No one would have any hope or expectation that brats or spoiled children could free them.

A great deal of time and expense and planning was done to ensure the safety of the Royal Four. The people opposed to Kivar wanted the Royal Four to return to their home planet. The people of Antar knew that the Royal Four had been good people. Otherwise, the survivors on Antar wouldn’t have bothered to re-create the Royal Four and protect them and hope for their return to free the people of Antar.
