Claire (Lily Rabe) gets the notion to get all the children in one room together and have them talk cos children share secrets when they're together. Her boss agrees to this but it's to be kept between themselves. She also visits Sean (Milo Ventimiglia) again and he asks bout Henry (Kyle Harrison Breitkopf) though he still can't recall anything. Frommer (David Andrews) asks Wes (Barry Sloane) if he's handling things and then tells him what Claire's doing. He needs to be in on this cos it's national security and they can't have anything getting out or them finding out anything they're not privvy to. Also the parents object to this happening, but Claire reassures them insisting she will look after them and her son is with them too. Yeah nothing like the condescending reassurance of her son being part of the group too, cos at the first sign of trouble, she's going to look after Henry, as it happened, this was exactly the case. Lena (Kristen Connolly) didn't let Minx (Kylie Rogers) come to the meeting so sure enough it was apparent she'd be in touch with Drill or vice versa and she'd tell him. Minx is a right little minx, she's like his number one child informant. As she tells him what's happening. This is not a Drill, yeah waiting ages to say that! Ha.
Is Lena really well equipped to know what to do and how to handle Minx and Drill and this has nothing to do with her just being a housewife. Ethan (Terrell Ransom Jr) is cautious in that he doesn't want to tell them anything and Harper (Abby Ryder Fortson) says that Drill helps them and helped her mother. Yes but he was the one who made her to do that to her mother in the first place, so he didn't really do much helping. Although she is too young to understand that. Even if he made Henry hear again, that was just to use him once more and to harness the radiation. Lena hears Minx talking to Drill and says that Claire is the one who doesn't like him and is behind it all.
Drill finds them as the lights flicker and he ends up in the room with Henry and is seen on the thermal imaging camera hovering around Henry. So now at least they can see it when it's around. It appears they not only have an enemy in the form of Drill, but also the DOD and Frommer who is hell bent on finding out what this is, but at the same time he doesn't care what it can do and is rather flippant about what's happening around them and to those children. He's more concerned with controlling it and I don't know, using the powers it may have.
As for the name Drill, it drills into their minds and manipulates and uses the children, but also it did that to Sean. Even if he lost his memory, was he able to fight it on his own terms cos he's older and wasn't manipulated into doing anything for it or helping someone. He knew exactly what it wanted and he tried to put those thoughts and visions he had together. But in some ways it did manipulate him too when Drill sent him the message for him to communicate with it, through it, giving him back his memories cos it knew he would be questioned, thereby furthering its real agenda.
Getting the children together wasn't much help except for discovering they can see Drill through thermal imaging, allowing them to set up cameras and especially Wes using this for Minx, but it still wasn't enough.
