The Chapel
There is more dialogue in the scene with Ripley 8 and Call when she interfaces with ‘Father’. Ripley asks her why she came here and Call says she wanted to protect people. Ripley then tells her she wanted to do the same and reminisces about a girl who had bad dreams – referencing Newt from Aliens. When Distepheno comes to get them, Ripley asks Call if she dreams and Call tells us they have neural processors that enable them to do that. Ripley 8 says “When I sleep, I dream about them. It. Every night. All around me. In me. I used to be afraid to dream, but not anymore.” “Why?” “Because no matter how bad the dreams get, when I wake up it’s always worse.”
