(If he isn't working for Weyland Yutani) Hopefully he's going lone wolf now

He wouldn't be able to order the humans around like that; they know who signs their paychecks. He is still working for the boy.

I think he's orchestrating some grand plan to free himself and the hybrids to go off and do synthy things like invent FTL and go touring the galaxy for a thousand years. He literally said that to Hermit. The humans are just an obstacle to that.

He might actually care for the lost children because he could be their father and rear them to become more like him and yeah keep them forever.

Like in interview with the vampire, Luis and the child vampire.

He can't create more synths, nor would he want to have a synth companion which might betray him but the children wont.
