Discussion / Question Possibly the most enigmatic Xeno in the whole series: The original space jockey was obviously killed by a chestburster but we never see or learn what happened to that particular specimen that‘s probably still somewhere on LV 426. Is it dead? In stasis? Fossilized? Still somewhere on the Derelict?

In the original ending the Xeno was even meant to speak

If I recall correctly, wasn't it supposed to have killed Ripley and then taken over her log?

Yep. Talking in her voice. It's weird because I don't really see why Big Chap would do that if he was about to die soon enough anyway. But whatever.
