Who Did Tom Mason Meet In The 'Falling Skies' Finale? David Eick Dishes On New Alien
Whoever these new creatures are, whether they are a whole new race or some sort of hybrid mutation, they knew how to put Tom Mason at ease. However, their friendly treatment of the resistance fighter does not necessarily mean they will be humanities saviors.
"What we came up with [for that final scene], I thought, built the same emotion of nodding to a part of American or, I guess, human culture that is so indelible and specific that it's undeniable," said showrunner David Eich, according to Entertainment Weekly. "So you would hear that and go, 'Oh my God, that's a friend. There's a friend nearby' or 'There's someone who understands me. Whether they're trying to manipulate me, whether they're trying to trap me, or whether they're a friend, they at least get where I come from.'"
