Backstory
Abduction
Her husband unknown, Carla, 34, lived in Hillcrest California with her 8-year-old daughter Celeste. One such day Carla bribed Celeste with ice cream in order for her to demonstrate her skills on the piano after a session with the latter's instructor.
Midway through the scales, Carla and Celeste were engulfed in a strange light. Wanting to protect her daughter above all else, Carla shielded Celeste in her arms until the two vanished without a trace. The Lee's home was left empty as local reports filed them missing for the next ten years until the Wilson family moved in.
Plot in the Story
Awakening in a Pod
Following a missing persons report about a Disc Jockey turning up dead in the desert, Deputies Regan and Kelly search the area. After finding the Jockey's remains they discover an opening in the ground leading to an alien structure of some kind leading to a tank. Inside the tank, they find Carla, dormant and naked inside. Getting a closer look, Carla abruptly opens her eyes inside the pod, spooking Kelly as the Strikers, whom they mistook for statues attack and butcher the two men on the spot.
Reunion
After Hunter, Celeste and their friends survive a Striker attack and gain new alien abilities, they're questioned by a pair of agents investigating the incidents surrounding the group. After denying any eyewitness testimony and ushering the agents away, the door to the house knocks once again. There, a lone woman appears before Hunter with a blank expression. She believes at first to have the wrong address until she mentions Celeste, the latter of whom instantly recognizes as her missing mother! Overjoyed to have reunited with her daughter, Carla embraces Celeste lovingly.
The two ask each other what happened during their abduction. Carla appears to have some measure of amnesia - only able to remember the incident vividly before it all went dark. The only thing she was able to recall was their last session on the piano. Carla was just as frightened as Celeste but protected her daughter nonetheless. After asking what she experienced during her capture, Carla was relieved to be informed that Hunter took care of Celeste after dropping into his pool. Grateful to have her daughter in good hands, Carla gently befriends Hunter, who blushes lightly.
Just as Celeste informs her of the alien ship and the Striker attack, Carla is overcome with dizziness - especially after Hunter asks how she arrived to their house. She opts to get some rest before continuing their reunion as Hunter and Celeste head off for school.
Attacked by the Strikers
Carla spends the day in the Wilson home temporarily until she and Celeste figure out where to live next. After making herself some coffee, Carla hears a strange noise coming from the interior of the house. Drawn in by the noise, Carla ventures further into the basement as she turns on the light. Walking down the staircase, Carla investigates the source of the noise until it grows louder followed by an attack from an unseen presence. Carla manages to contact Hunter via his smartphone to notify Celeste into getting home immediately. Arriving at Hunter's place where she left her, Celeste discovers Carla, lying on the basement floor in a puddle of strange fluids.
Being cradled in Celeste's arms, Carla moans that her attackers are outside. From above, a wave of three Striker's crash through the Wilson house roof to attack the women. Showing that she's all but defenseless, Celeste uses her alien telekinesis to fight back. Carla urges Celeste to be careful during the fight and quickly becomes targeted by the horrific aliens.
Determined to protect her, Celeste grapples one Striker head-on before expelling one from the house and the other to get shot by a flurry of blades. Seeing as their opportunity to escape, Celeste summons her ship.
For good luck, Celeste kisses her mother's brow as their levitated into the base of her spacecraft.
"Mother's" True Nature
Carla, still weakened by the attack, is unable to move much as Celeste brings her aboard using her ship's tractor beam. Carla is set down near the Bio-Rejuvination Pods as Celeste hurriedly makes preparations..
Just as Celeste has her back turned, Carla sneaks up on her and in a flash, Celeste finds herself stripped half naked and imprisoned in the Bio-Rejuvination pod by her own mother Carla! As it happens, Carla looks to be in charge of the Strikers who've been aboard her ship this whole time.
Carla thanks Celeste for the unknowing affection and compassion before mockingly stating how they'll take her vessel for their masters.
Attack on the Hillcrest High Field
With Celeste imprisoned aboard her own ship, Carla begins to hatch a plan by sending one of her own Strikers to impersonate Celeste in order to attack Hunter and his friends. The plan works halfway until the Striker's been forced to calm down and revert to Celeste after Hunter stands up to it.
After the DHS agents show up asking questions, Celeste's ship arrives with a slew of Strikers. Carla, showing she's in cahoots with the monsters (and in a scantily revealing outfit), orders her monsters to kill the agents until Celeste recovers and intervenes. This results in Carla blasting Celeste with a nonlethal shot from behind. Carla looms over her stating that while she has no desire to kill Celeste, she is left with no other choice. This is when Hunter rushes in to defend Celeste, with Carla mocking his chivalry and attempts to eliminate him. However, Carla is clutched by Celeste and flown up in the sky leaving Hunter and the rest to fend off the Strikers who by now are just toying with them.
Higher in the atmosphere, Carla urges Celeste to stop resisting and noin her side if she wants her friends to live. Celeste refuses to falter no matter what.
Defeat and Reveal
Carla struggles more in Celeste's grip, stating that her friends will die for refusing. Then, Celeste grabs Carla by her head and a blinding light stuns and incapacitates Carla. The combined energy from both mother and daughter surge brightly as well as disintegrates the Strikers in the area.
Falling to the ground unconscious, Carla remains motionless in front of Celeste. Lamenting that there was no other way and hoping to find a way to reform her, Celeste recolis in horror as "Carla's" face deteriorates into that if a Striker -- meaning that she was never Celeste's mother at all! Just as Celeste ponders where her real mother is, the imposter eerily declares that their fight is far from over and shall return in full force. After watching the remaining Strikers and the fake Carla get picked up and blown up in Celeste's ship, the latter decides to stay in Hillcrest as her home.
The whereabouts of the real Carla Lee are left ambiguous.
