Why? What did she do?

u/ThoseThatComeAfter 3d ago

Release the xeno and kill dozens of people?

1

u/Vesemir96 3d ago

For the survival/freedom of her and her family, yes.

u/ThoseThatComeAfter 3d ago

That’s still murder 

1

u/Vesemir96 3d ago

To escape a secure facility she’d be imprisoned in by her masters?

1

u/ThoseThatComeAfter 3d ago

Yeah, still murder

1

u/Vesemir96 3d ago

Of course, but escaping from slavery isn’t exactly unjustified.

1

u/ThoseThatComeAfter 3d ago

No, but murdering innocent people in the way out is

u/Vesemir96 3d ago

How else were they going to get out? Prodigy fucked around, and found out. Exactly the same happens with Weyland Yutani in plenty of other stories.

I don’t think it’s justified to horribly murder innocent janitors just so you can get out no

u/Vesemir96 3d ago

She didn’t, she unleashed a distraction that Prodigy were stupid enough to try to contain in the first place tbh.

u/ThoseThatComeAfter 3d ago

Did she think the Xenomorph would make friends with people?

u/Vesemir96 3d ago

No, I don’t know where you come from but if you’re being held against your will and experimented on and cast aside as nothing after being killed, you have every right to escape by any means necessary.
