Sci-Fi This Week: We Have To Get Out Of Here
Find out what’s airing in science fiction and fantasy this week.
There’s a bit of a running theme in this week’s new episodes: Escape!
On Defiance Datak remains locked up in prison, unable to stop his cunning wife from exercising complete control over his criminal empire. Then on a new episode of Dominion, Alex tries to escape from Vega and his calling to be Earth’s savior — only to find himself fighting for his life.
Tom and members of the 2nd Mass remain in an Espheni prison camp on Falling Skies, but finally plan to make their escape this week. Meanwhile young Matt has to talk his new friend out of her own dangerous plan to try and escape from the Espheni youth camp.
