'Project Blue Book' Season 1 Episode 2: A secret war rages on between Dr. J Allen Hynek and his associate Michael Quinn

Hynek and Quinn have been at odds with each other ever since they met and this time it becomes a matter of who manages to overpower the other

History Channel's take on the alien controversies of the 1950s which led to the highly classified findings of UFOs, 'Project Blue Book', kicked off by developing the bond between Dr. J Allen Hynek and Captain Michael Quinn in episode one. However, their bond takes a rather sinister turn in the second episode which is set to air on Tuesday, January 15, Tuesday. Starring Aidan Gillen as Hynek and Michael Malarkey as Quinn, the episode two picks up with the two traveling all across the nation to West Virginia where a woman (played by 'Grey's Anatomy' alum, Brooke Smith) and her children claim to have encountered the presence of extraterrestrial beings. 

The subtle genuineness of the second episode lies in its use of the woman's circumstance to highlight the conflicting bond between Hynek and Quinn.
