Tom Baldwin (Joel Gretsch) and Diana Skouris (Jacqueline McKenzie) are the two government agents sympathetic to the plight of the 4400's, those individuals who were kidnapped by the future society and returned to the present with special abilities. Tom is dating a woman named Alana, who can create her own realities, and Diana had adopted Maia, a girl who can see the future. Tom's son is serving a prison sentence for killing Jordan Collier, a 4400, although he was "possessed" at the time. As it turns out Collier shows up late in the season, returned from the dead and looking like Jesus with long hair and beard. Isabelle, the child of two of the 4400's, has rapidly aged and is now a young adult, though her mother Lilly has also aged and ends up dying at the beginning of the season. As it turns out she may be the biggest threat of all for the 4400's. Dennis Ryland (Peter Coyote) continues to be the skeezy bad guy and forms an unlikely alliance with the powerful Isabelle.
What I liked best about the season is that Skouris finally gets a love interest after being the confirmed bachelorette for two seasons--and it's presented in such a way that she can't deny her feelings or even try to get out of it.
The worst thing about the season is that we see some of the abductors from the future, as a few episodes revolve around this, and they should have remained mysterious and off-screen.
In terms of the big picture a lot is going on but in terms of the majority of the characterization and drama, Season Two remains the best of the overall series to date.
