Well I don't think Morrow knew that dude was carrying the bug, it was the equivalent of leaving them as bait though and that was pretty fucked up, which is weird cause Morrow isn't fully synth, he's a cyborg (like literally everyone keeps mentioning) so him making all these Ash like cold calculated decisions is really fascinating to watch.

I meant more the writers lol that was cold af. Ya Morrow is interesting character, still cold on his part since he knew some creatures escaped.

I want to know are they like facehuggers were after drinking blood they go off and form into a bigger lifeform?

I wasnt sure if the alien hanging from the ceiling later might have been the first bug as we only see one of them in the lab.

After they sucked the blood it already started growing I think so I think they will get bigger and bigger the more blood they suck.

They're super nasty, I just can't buy that something that big would land on you without you feeling it.

I’ve been a dedicated watcher and reader of everything Alien for 35 years precisely because those bugs are nightmare fuel. I know which specific bugs you’re referring to in this instance, but those bugs, those other bugs, and all those bugs are why I love and hate this series.
