What to expect in Alien Earth: Season 1 Episode 3?
Episode 3, titled Metamorphosis, is expected to double the tension by exposing the hybrids from Prodigy and include a new set of threats. After the destruction of the Maginot and the disastrous encounters with the xenomorph, the surviving crew will potentially return with alien specimens, which are not intended to end up in corporate hands.
This is also set to shift the narrative spotlight on Prodigy`s agenda, questioning how extensive its tests are. It will also explore to what degree Boy Kavalier will continue pursuing his endeavours. As far as Wendy is concerned, the stakes are now high as her hybrid nature is pitted against increasing corporate dominance and moral crises associated with containing something as deadly as a xenomorph.
The sci-fi horror directed by Dana Gonzales and written by Noah Hawley with Bob DeLaurentiis, is expected to build on the series` core theme of identity, exploitation, and the danger of unbridled ambition as the audiences look forward to episode 3.
