'Wayward Pines' episode 6: more of the facility shown to Ethan, teaser poster hints of an Abby in town

In the last episode of "Wayward Pines," "The Truth," Ethan Burke and his son Ben discovered the truth about the town in glaringly different ways. Ethan found the truth by escaping from the Abbies and being rescued by Dr. Jenkins while Ben learned about it in school.

The series took a brief hiatus after that, but it returns on the 25th with the episode "Choices." The episode will reportedly begin with Ethan being shown more of the facility that runs the town. While that's happening, his wife Theresa discovers a map of an unusual plot of land that she's planning on investigating.

But a new poster teased by Fox would make viewers think about what choices the people at "Wayward Pines" have. The poster shows an Abby, shorthand for the human "aberrations" that haunt the town's outskirts, seemingly walking into town. The poster is captioned with the simple description "More Twists. More Danger."

 What those twists and dangers are would be answered in the episode, show producer M. Night Shyamalan promises. He added that the episode will continue giving the answers to questions that have been asked since the series started.

The "Signs" director also revealed that more focus will be placed on the youth of Wayward Pines in the remaining episodes. He explained to "Zap2It" that this stems from his interest in the social implications on the young when they're indoctrinated into a belief system, like what Ben is experiencing.

"I'm always interested in these moral choices of 'would you kill five children to find the cure to cancer?' Those kinds of moral dilemmas," he expounded. "That's what really drew me to this story and what really fuels the final five episodes."

But now that the season is on its last few episodes, viewers are wondering if another season is on the horizon. "Wayward Pines" was originally conceived as a 10-episode story arc, but the director says he's open to the possibility of the show moving to season two.
