Events
Season 1
The team initially encountered Anna when they raided a Red Flag safehouse, looking for Milos Kosar. They found her left behind, without the ability to speak or interact with those around her. While at first she appears to be autistic, Dr. Rosen determines that she has severe apraxia, which is a neurological condition that affects the ability to repeat muscular movements. Because of this, she is unable to speak as she cannot consistently coordinate the muscles in her mouth to form speech.
Anna speaking her language.
However, Gary discovers that she has developed her own language based on those muscle movements that she can perform consistently, using a hairbrush and other items. Her alpha ability allows her to understand every language in the world, even technical languages.
The team initially believes that Red Flag was using Anna to encode all of their messages, and use her to track Kosar. But as they spend time together, Gary figures out that Anna is altering data to throw them off of Kosar's trail. Anna tells Gary the truth, "I don't work for them; they work for me". She tries to convince Gary to join Red Flag, encouraging him to take control of his own life, instead of letting his mother and Dr. Rosen determine it for him. Gary sneaks out a signal to notify the DoD, and to escape, Anna attacks him with an overload of transmitted data.
Gary has formed a particular attachment to Anna, as she is handicapped in her ability to communicate without help, much as he is. Even after her attack, they remain friends. Gary admits to staying in contact with Anna during The Unusual Suspects, but says they don't talk about "work".
Gary later visited her to find out information about Stanton Parish, but when Gary tells her the that's what he wants to talk about she accidentally confirms to Gary that Stanton Parrish is alive. Meaning he is Red Flag's current leader secretly before having Gary leave.
She was among the members of Red Flag who were planing to come out with information Stanton Parrish gave them instructing to come to the meeting, but Parrish didn't show realizing the DoD would take care of getting rid of them and reveling to Red Flag operatives that they should retaliate when DoD tactical teams combined with Dr. Rosen's team enter the building and exterminate them. She is among the Red Flag members killed as revealed when Gary finds her dead causing him much pain in "Original Sin".
Season 2
She appeared in Gaslight She was Gary's hallucination affected by Jason Miller receiving treatment from the Photic Stimulator. She could talk without using the tablet. Gary was confused by her being there, he asked her "Are you haunting me?"
As Gary tried to figure it out, he and Anna went upstairs and Gary noticed that she would fade less and less as they got higher. Like a signal. Gary found out that the cause of the hallucinations was Infra-sound. He found out about Jason Miller and said he was gonna find him before Dr. Rosen. Him and Anna went into the hospital room, and Gary locked it. Dr. Rosen told him to open the door, but he wouldn't listen. Explaining he didn't want to loose Anna again, and how he couldn't save her at Highland Mills, but he could this time. Anna convinces Gary to open the door to let Dr. Rosen wake up Jason, saying "The Nuero-Diverse need to be there for each other." Gary opened the door and Dr. Rosen woke Jason up. It showed Bill and Hick's hallucinations vanishing. Anna kissed Gary right before she disappeared.
At the end of the episode it revealed Gary as the Anna_Lives[1] Twitter page. Saying "The Revolution Is Coming"
