You would need big balls to go monster hunting in those air ducts!
I always wanted to know whether he did it to protect Ripley, as they had an affair, because plane of simple duty priority demands, as he was the boss, because he had balls of steel (he had been at war apparently with Parker, so tough guy presumably), or because he was crazy, with this last not computing well when understanding the character.
So either of the first three, or the three at a time.
I always loved Dallas character. I actually like his character more than Lambert's, and that's something because Lambert's acting was one of a kind in that movie. His appearance was also very cool, as never again, or at least that I know, was again seen with that beard and a bit long hair.
Dallas went down like a boss. I would have never, ever entered those vents knowing only I'm against a something very big (Parker briefing after Brett's death), and that is hostile..., and also the uncertain of the flamethrower having some effect on it.
Plan was nuts anyway. Expeting to push that thing with flames up to the nearest air lock...
