If Bishop did it, which goes against his character, wouldn't they have made a point of it in the movie? Instead there's every indication that whatever it was snuck on board.

Yep. Which is why its almost certain that ol'Queenie did it.

Quote from: SM on Sep 27, 2012, 11:21:07 PMIt does raise an interesting dilemma for Bishop though.  He's bound to obey Burke, as there's no immediate danger from the huggers.  However is he bound to obey Ripley's opposing order?  It could be reasoned out that the Company will use the huggers to harm humans, so would Bishop's reasoning reach that far?

That's the real question, isn't it?  How far will Bishop go to protect humans?  Those behavioral inhibitors of his could be a real problem if the marines ever got in a stand-up fight with other humans, couldn't they?

He couldn't really get involved unless it was to stop someone being hurt if he was able to.  Good chance he would've stepped in to protect Burke from being executed.

So do you think he'd go so far as to disobey Burke on the grounds that the company MIGHT harm humans while experimenting with the alien specimens?  Is Weyland-Yutani supposed to have a public reputation for committing atrocities?

The latter doesn't enter int it.  Bishop knows what the huggers are capable of if left alive and released from stasis.

True, although the same could be said about many of the potentially lethal things that Bishop interacts with on a daily basis.

The glass tanks on LV-426 I presume.
No, that would be very far fetched. besides, you see the egg(s) in the intro?

Wow. Just remember it took like 5 minutes for the marines to get from Sulaco to planet.

Bishop says something like this when Hicks asks him about the 2nd Dropship.

"the ship is on its way...ETA...16 minutes!"

Not very accurate for an artificial person now is it.

Not sure if serious...but the landing was obviously edited down as they wouldnt show full 16 minutes. It was more than 16 minutes too, the ship was already on the way when Bishop said its 16 more minutes

Bishop says flight time is 50 minutes.  Which is backed up by the mission time on the marines cameras just after they land.

Do try and pay attention.

Bishop did it. Please stop with the queen laying them/ bringing them in her arms. 

Maybe bishop was face hugged at the uplink dish and he captured it cause it couldn't implant the embryo? Then he put the higher in on of those cases his laptop was sitting on.

How about them apples.
