- I loooove that T. Ocellus is a “good guy” after all. I’m grinning. What a twist.
Teng is just a certified creep; that’s all.
Based on the last scene, Morrow clearly has a deeper, almost familial connection to the Yutani family which now is, in fact, the only real family he has left.
He’s doing what he’s doing partly for that but also to seek vengeance against Boy, whose actions led to the deaths of a crew he was mostly loyal to until it became clear they were all fucked no matter what he did.
I liked the episode a lot but Hawley’s and the crew’s ceilings, while excellent, aren’t at the master level of Scott or Cameron or even Alvarez. Inconsistent atmosphere and some pedestrian scoring that blunted some of the tension. Some of Hawley’s oddball quirks came out a little too much for my liking with the characters and their weird-as-hell reactions.
Also, either she’s a world class sprinter or that’s the slowest xenomorph of all time. Pick up the pace, man! And, back to the quality, stop showing full, direct looks at the xeno. It’ll either look bad /amateurish (like it did in this episode) or it’ll rob from the tension.
