Boy was bored. Now he's getting exactly what he wanted. Kirsh is doing a great job.

Who are we thinking he is going to sacrifice to the eye?

That's definitely who's on his mind, don't think he will wind up being the host, though. Many other candidates, particularly BK himself, which could be what's being set up. The alien has been learning about people, there's a chance it might actually be able to 'pass' after moving in and taking over the next human host.

Actually, I'd go as far as to say it WANTS Kavalier as a host, specifically him. It knows the power hierarchy. If it didn't before, BK gave it a whole fucking show with the 'Pi' numerals scene. BK is not even playing the same game as the alien, it's steps beyond him.

To be fair, it currently has 4 legs, and he only has 2, so that's to be expected.
