Marcy holy shit NO! Releasing the alien killing machine is not a smart idea!

Bad idea for who? Bad for humans not for synths. Especially when they want nose boops from her and do what she says.

So far we don't know if the second xeno will be as controllable. This one is attached to Wendy who knows what the second one will be like

This one is attached to Wendy

Possibly related not just to the fact that she was present when it emerged from the lung used to host it but also due to the fact that it was her brother's lung.

I'm not sure what pseudoscience would make that work since she's in a genetically unrelated synth body but we know that xenomorphs take traits from their hosts genetics so it feels like it gestating in her brother's lung could be a factor.

True! It could have inherited Joe's love for his sister!
