And I am definitely human. In this video we’re gonna be going through episode 3, titled Metamorphosis. It’s possible that this is a nod to the book of the same name by Franz Kafka. In that a man awakens one day to find himself transformed into an insect. Its a story about what it means to be human, transformation into a monster, alienation and ultimately exile. Which are all things you can apply to the show. Be it the AI or Alien theres lots of things to talk about and throughout this video we’ll be breaking down the easter eggs, hidden details and things you might have missed.

Morrow reminds me of captain hook, has the arm blade instead of hook hand, has a ship, seems to dislike boy (peter pan), and doesn't hate the lost boys (hybrids)

Don't let the bedbugs bite was also said by David in Alien Covenant.

In the first episode, we saw the Three Wise Monkeys: See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil. In this episode, Wendy represents ‘Hear No Evil,’ Nibs—the girl who touched her eye—represents ‘See No Evil,’ and Slightly—the boy who was contacted by Morrow—represents ‘Speak No Evil.’

Well, Peter Pan actually abducted Wendy with a lie about Neverland. He also lied to the lost boys just to get them to stay in Neverland. Boy Cavalier is Peter Pan

I love the fact they confirm the facehuggers implant an embryo into the host and not a bunch of chemicals that create the xeno in the host's body.

I definitely get the feeling that Yutani wanted Kavalier to steal the specimens, hence why she tells Morrow just to come home. She isn't personally invested in the space mission like Morrow and her grandmother were, and she sees this as an opportunity to remove Prodigy from the board.

36:55 "Don't let the bed bugs bite..." is one of the last things David says in Covenant.

I don't think Wendy was actually moving around physically towards the end but it's like a hallucination brought on by the xeno signal.

Prodigy is toast...a young arrogant head of the company, a bunch of aliens in captivity, a xenomorph running around and a bunch rouge hybrids, what could possibly go wrong? lol
