The aliens are using children to gather intelligence on the human resistance. One of the children, who is half-human and half-alien, is captured and becomes a prisoner of the human resistance. The leaders of the resistance are conflicted on how to handle the situation, as they are unsure if the child can be trusted or if they should use him as a bargaining chip. Meanwhile, tensions rise within the group as the survivors continue to struggle with loss and the harsh realities of life after an alien invasion.

The episode opens with a group of children being used by the aliens to gather information on the human resistance. One of the children, a half-human and half-alien hybrid named Karen, is so convincing in her act that the humans don't realize she is actually working for the aliens. However, their luck runs out when Tom, one of the leaders of the resistance, catches Karen in the act and captures her.

With Karen as their prisoner, the human resistance is left with a difficult decision. Some believe that Karen can still be of use to them by extracting information about the aliens and their plans, while others argue that they cannot trust her and should use her as a bargaining chip to gain leverage in negotiations.

Meanwhile, tensions within the group continue to brew. Mike, one of the survivors, is struggling to come to terms with the loss of his family and lashes out at those around him. He accuses Tom of not doing enough to protect them and of putting everyone's lives at risk. This creates a rift between the two men and threatens to divide the group even further.

As the episode progresses, it becomes clear that Karen may not be the only prisoner being held by the humans. The aliens also seem to have their own prisoners, which raises questions about their intentions and motives. The human resistance must also contend with the harsh realities of life in a post-apocalyptic world, from scarcity of resources to the constant threat of danger.

In the end, the leaders of the resistance make a decision about what to do with Karen, and the group must confront the consequences of their actions. The episode ends on a tense note, leaving viewers wondering what will happen next.

Overall, "Prisoner of War" is a gripping episode that delves deeper into the complex dynamics of the human resistance. It also raises important questions about trust, loyalty, and the lengths people will go to survive in difficult times.
