Background

The daughter of Richard Tyler^[1] and Lily Moore, Isabelle is technically not a 4400; she was born after the 4400 were returned, after the first season of the show.

Character

Season 1

Lily discovers quickly after her return she is pregnant. The baby inside her is capable of communicating with her, making Lily feel unwell if there is danger- or, in the case when Lily sees her daughter, Heidi, when the baby is jealous. Lily knows early on that the baby will be a girl.

When Jordan Collier attempts to stop Lily and Richard from leaving his complex, he touches Lily's stomach. The fetus inflicts severe injuries on him, that even Shawn Farrell cannot fully heal months later.

As Lily is being driven to the hospital in labour, the trees lining the road actually bend down towards the car as it passes.

Season 2

After baby Isabelle's birth, Lily, Richard and Isabelle went on the run from NTAC and Jordan Collier, and Isabelle used several powers that aided the family in their situation. As they were being chased by a deranged family of 4400-haters, she first made fruit grow on plants and later forced the armed men to shoot themselves. The family were eventually persuaded to return to the 4400 Center, in large part as Isabelle seemed to trust Jordan Collier's sincerity. She also apparently healed the remaining damage she had inflicted on him. The 4400 Center The 4400 Center is a fictional building in the science fiction television series The 4400. ...

However, Isabelle still sensed that Collier was dangerous, and greedy. When his death was predicted in a vision of Maia Skouris', Collier asked Isabelle for advice. The baby Isabelle showed Collier a vision of what she knew he wanted to see- prestige and glory. This vision persuaded Collier that he was safe, and he was assassinated shortly after. Maia Skouris (last name Rutledge before adoption by Diana Skouris) is a fictional character on the USA Network science fiction TV show The 4400. ...

As the 4400 became ill as a result of the promicin inhibitor, Dr Kevin Burkhoff stated he could develop a cure using uncontaminated blood that contained promicin. Isabelle had not treated with the inhibitor, as her parents had gone on the run from NTAC before her birth, so her blood was used to heal Shawn Farrell and consequently all 4400s, unbinding their abilities. At the end of Mommy's Bosses she ages to adulthood, and walks into Shawn's office, naked.

Season 3

Dr Burkhoff finds a link between Isabelle's aging and Lily's sudden aging to that of an elderly woman. As Isabelle's body grows stronger, Lily's becomes more frail, inflicting diabetes, arthritis, and other diseases on her. Burkhoff believes the only way to save Lily would be for Isabelle to actually die; Isabelle tries to commit suicide by jumping from the roof of the 4400 Center, but is unharmed. She is chastised by Matthew Ross, who informs her that she is indestructible and of vital importance to the future. Lily finally dies of old age, after giving Isabelle her own grandmother's ring. The science fiction television series The 4400 presents a wide range of characters. ...

According to Ross, her purpose is to eliminate all of the 4400, as not everyone in the future believed they were a beneficial thing. This was confirmed later in season 4, when Isabelle was described by 4400 Curtis Peck as being the "ultimate weapon" of the anti-4400 faction in the future. Isabelle refused to believe it, saying that (as described by Shawn Farrell) being good or evil was a matter of choice. Shawn Farrell is a fictional character in the USA Network science fiction television series The 4400. ...

Isabelle is still, however, a dangerous mixture of youthful innocence and deadly power. On Ross' advice she begins a sexual relationship with Shawn, one that he father strongly objects to. She finally rejects Ross' influence, and plans to marry Shawn, despite his clear statement that he wants to end the relationship. Isabelle responds with a veiled threat, stating that they were the two most powerful people on the planet- and that, without his "good" influence, she may do terrible things.

Isabelle begins secretly working with Dennis Ryland, to ensure "The balance of power" between 4400 and non-4400 is maintained. Promicin is extracted from her blood, and used in Ryland's super-soldier program. Still engaged to Shawn, her intense concern for his well-being leads her to torture and kill several members of the Nova Group in an attempt to track down Daniel Armand, who afflicted Shawn with paranoid schizophrenia. She is detained by NTAC but there is no evidence to tie Isabelle to the murders, forcing her to be released. Dennis Ryland is a fictional character on the USA Network science fiction The 4400. ...

After the resurrected Jordan Collier barrs her from the 4400 Center, leaving her marriage plans in ruins, Isabelle openly allies herself with Ryland. When Isabelle and Ryland find what is apparently the storehouse of stolen promicin, Boyd Gelder detonates a suicide bomb. This attempt to kill Isabelle enrages her, and she goes on the rampage, killing 4400s at the Center in an attempt to lure Collier to her. As she is about to murder Maia Skouris, her father manages to inject her with the serum sent from the future; instead of killing her, it strips her of her abilities. She is wounded by Tom Baldwin and taken into custody. Maia Skouris (last name Rutledge before adoption by Diana Skouris) is a fictional character on the USA Network science fiction TV show The 4400. ...

Season 4

In prison for her crimes, Isabelle is visited by Tom Baldwin, seeking information on his wife's wherabouts. Isabelle directs him to an art gallery, where a picture of Alana hangs- painted in 1885. How Isabelle knew this is unclear; it is implied that her connection to the future may have somehow been responsible, but is also likely that she saw the painting in one of the many books she read after growing to adulthood, and rembered it after the timeline was altered by Alana's re-abduction.

Isabelle is offered the chance to move to a less secure facility. She gives a blood sample, and is later told that the serum given to her by Richard also induced a fatal allergy to promicin; she will never regain her abilities. However, the transport that takes Isabelle to the facility crashes in a car accident. Kyle Baldwin,at the scene because of his ability, helps Isabelle escape and takes her to his family's rural cabin. Kyle Baldwin is a fictional character in the USA Network science fiction television series The 4400. ...

In The Truth and Nothing But the Truth, Isabelle reveals that despite the fact she no longer has her powers, she has kept her massive intelligence and memory. Due to her knowledge of numerology and cryptography, Isabelle helps Kyle decode the White Light "bible", revealing essential information about the future of Collier's movement and a list of people who must take promicin. Kyle and Isabelle later meet Collier, and form an alliance with him. Isabelle reveals the reason she wants to help Collier is to give her life meaning, and seek redemption for her past atrocities. Collier warns her that at the slightest sign of making him "nervous" her invitation will be terminated, presumably with her life. The Truth and Nothing but the Truth is the fourth episode of season four of the science fiction television series The 4400. ...

After the movement journies to Seattle, Kyle brings Shawn to meet Collier, and Isabelle tells Shawn that she knows he will never forgive her- but she needed him to know how sorry she was for her past acts. When Maia Skouris enters Promise City to warn Collier his life is in danger, Isabelle tells Maia that she's sorry for hurting people Maia cares about. Maia scornfully responds that some things are so bad, saying "sorry" isn't enough. Maia Skouris (last name Rutledge before adoption by Diana Skouris) is a fictional character on the USA Network science fiction TV show The 4400. ...

When Isabelle's father returned and met her at Promise City, he mentioned how sorry he was that he was unable to teach her right from wrong. He used his ability of telekenesis to stop the flow of blood to her brain to render her unconcious. He then gave her water that later caused her to regress until she was a toddler. Unknown to Isabelle the water had been influenced by a 4400 with the special ability to reverse aging.

She had worked with Haspel Corporation and was the source of the promicin they used in attempts to induce 4400 mutations in people who were never abducted. She left after HaspelCorp's team was destroyed by Boyd Gelder's suicide bomb. Afterwards, she moved to attack the 4400 Center but ended up losing her abilities when her father used his telekinesis to inject her with a serum given to Tom Baldwin by the people from the future. She was shot by Baldwin, but survived, and is currently in custody. In the fourth season premiere, she was visited in prison by Baldwin, who was looking for information on his missing girlfriend, Alana. Haspel Corp. ...
