"Falling Skies" Season 5 Episode 10 titled, "Reborn" will see the 2nd Mass team up with the Masons and new allies in their quest towards reclaiming humanity, Carter Matt cited the upcoming episode's official synopsis. While the penultimate episode showed Pope (Colin Cunningham) end up dead, many fans began wondering if he is really gone for good or if he made it out alive.

The outlet noted that it is still possible for Pope to still be well and alive, as there was no body found. Most fans believe the same, as it is a common practice to never believe in any character's death unless there's a corpse to prove it.

While the show is gearing up for its finale, fans may also expect that more lives will be lost, as the Masons and 2nd Mass will face "new and unpredictable obstacles." Will they succeed in their mission to take the Earth back?

Meanwhile, TV.com offered some insights into the latest episode of "Falling Skies" titled, "Reunion." The outlet noted that the latest episode fell short of their expectations and the episode seemingly lacked the "OOMPH" factor.

"Episodes like 'Reunion' are the No. 1 reason that I've struggled with my feelings about 'Falling Skies.' The series thrives on a cycle of brilliance and then mediocrity, always so close to being truly great, only to fumble just short of the end zone," reviewed the outlet.

Will "Falling Skies" Season 5 finale give a meaningful ending for fans of the alien TV drama? Find out when the show's finale episode airs on Aug. 30, 2015 on TNT.
