Grace (Falling Skies)

"Grace" is the fourth episode of the first season of the TNT science fiction drama Falling Skies, which originally aired July 3, 2011.

The episode was written by Melinda Hsu Taylor and directed by Fred Toye.

Tom and his team are sent to scout out an old motorcycle shop, and Weaver insists he take Pope along.

After arriving at the store, Pope manages to escape and attacks a nest of sleeping Skitters, attracting the attention of nearby Mechs.

The Skitter that Tom captured is being held in a special confinement for Anne and Dr. Harris to study its physiology and anatomy to know more about its weakness.

The episode was written by Melinda Hsu Taylor and it was directed by Fred Toye.

Greg Beeman stated in his blog that a difficult production problem the crew faced were the scenes involving the caged Skitter.

The crew shot the episode in the summer and "the guy inside the suit was buried beneath six inches of foam rubber."
