For one thing, the aliens are "haven't had bodies in tens of thousands of years" (71.85). Why did the alien need human Evan's body? It was totally normal and natural, and we're sure that if the human part of Evan hadn't been absorbed by an alien life form, he'd tell you the same. When the alien finally woke up, human Evan was "absorbed" (71.77). Then the alien took a long, long nap inside human Evan for thirteen years.
And when that little boy was still in his mommy's tummy, an alien life form was inserted-or downloaded-inside him.
"There was a boy, a real human boy named Evan Walker" (71.75). When Evan says he was "downloaded" into a human body, what exactly does that mean? That was the moment he knew he was in love with her, basically. She's his whole world in a regular, non-obsessive way, and he's been nothing but devoted to her ever since he shot her in the leg. That's how he met his lovely girlfriend, Cassie. (Normal!)Īlso, ever since the alien apocalypse he's been hunting and killing human prey. He likes making hamburgers from scratch-we're talking scratch scratch, like killing the cow and everything. One thing you should know is that Evan is a fabulous cook.
It's sort of like an alien Bar Mitzvah (which is as spooky and scary as 30 Rock's " Werewolf Bar Mitzvah.") Anyway, that was four years ago and he's "fought against seeing the world through human eyes" (31.27) during his "painful integration" (31.28) ever since. when he awakened inside the human body chosen for him, he had known what he was. He's eighteen years old and he can't wait to vote in the next election… should there ever be one. He comes from a big family with seven brothers and sisters. (You're welcome.) What's Evan's Deal?Įvan's an all-American farmboy. And that's why we've put together this handy Evan Walker FAQ. And he maintains eye contact a bit too long.īut doesn't the fact that he's an alien explain away a few of these faux pas? Doesn't the fact that he saved Cassie's life make up for the fact that he, um, shot her? Doesn't the fact that he lurves Cassie make up for the fact that he stalked her? And yeah, sometimes he likes to wait outside her doorway while she sleeps. Sure, okay, sometimes he's a bit much-like the time he whispered "You saved me" (36.126) into Cassie's ear just a few too many times. Evan Walker might be the most likable alien since E.T.
