Teen Fun, Pity about the plot
Right song, right person, perfect moment. But it never lasts long, as Max
and Liz soon discover on Roswell (Nine, 11:10pm) when a horse jumps in front
of their car. Max swerves to avoid it and is knocked unconscious. When he is
rushed to hospital his siblings and his friends fear his identity will be
uncovered. Miss Topolsky, guidance councellor and FBI Agent is soon on the
case. A blood sample is taken in the emergency room must be retrived or Max,
Michael and Isabelle are doomed. Liz trys to convince Alex to give blood but
refuses to explain why. He thinks both Liz and Michael are on drugs and
ultimately she will be forced to choose between his friendship or keeping
Michaels secret. Its all harmless teen fun but theres a plot whole which
niggles: why would the FBI tiptoe around a high school and hospital
gathering physical evidence on suspected aliens when, in these days of DNA
analysis, they could quite easily take a sample off a door handle? Regular
viewers might like to visit a Roswell fan site (named after the shows cafe)
