This episode felt like a theatrical release
Imagine being on a mission for 65 years and completely failing with only 2 weeks lefts.
Xenomorph vs eyeball was the best part tbh 😂 I Iove how the bloody creature was not one bit scared of it and just straight up attack and watching the Xeno struggle for a bit was funny
Tocellious really tried to use a human to bite in to a alien head lol
The people on that ship had zero containment knowledge considering they were picking up alien parasites. The incompetence was unreal
Worked in a lab for a decade, and you are 100% not supposed to have food or drink anywhere in the lab. The risk of contamination is just too high. Even the microwaves and fridges are labeled "no food" or "no experiments" depending on their location (the lab or one of the eating areas).
I think the crew here is supposed to exemplify how being part of such a system isn't conducive to intelligent thought or anything other than basic self-interest. Nobody here gaf after hearing that fellow crewmates had died. The only thing that seemed to motivate them was having their pay threatened. Even the scientist types on board were ridiculously careless and distracted. It does feel like the only people who take these missions are the desperate and stupid.
Chibuzo was driving me crazy in the lab eating sammiches and drinking from her space mug like a sloppy drunk in a room of actual alien creatures. I'm not going into that room unless I'm in a full hazmat suit with my own air supply and at least two other people. This reminded me of those dumbasses from Covenant who landed on a foreign planet, then hopped out and began touching and smelling everything possible until it ended up killing many of them.
Watching the eyeball fight the xenomorph in that old mans body was one of the coolest fkn things I've ever seen. I literally cheered out loud for the eyeball.
This was so good, it was practically a movie hidden in a series
