Alien Earth Episode 2 Review

We continue our discussions with Alien Earth Episode 2 "Mr. October" an action packed episode featuring some brand new terrifying creatures. We chat all about it in spoiler filled details.Alien Earth Episode 2 "Mr. October" DetailsBased on Characters created by Dan O'Bannon and Ronald Shusett and H.R. Geiger.Episode Written by Showrunner Noah HawleyEpisode Directed by Dana GonzalesSpoiler filled synopsis: The head of Prodigy corporation, Boy Kavalier, tells his colleague, Dame Sylvia, that he formed the Hybrid project to compete with artificial intelligence, and has granted Wendy additional abilities as he wishes to create a person smarter than him. He declines Weyland-Yutani's request to secure the Maginot's proprietary contents, warning any incursion on his territory will be considered a hostile act. Meanwhile, at the crash site, Hermit is chased by a Xenomorph and separated from his colleagues. It tracks him to the higher floors of the tower, killing another soldier and massacring an apartment of wealthy residents who refused to evacuate. He is saved by Morrow, who tasers the Xenomorph and then him. Morrow encases the alien in a membrane and leaves to escape the Prodigy controlled area, but the Xenomorph regains consciousness and escapes after killing numerous other soldiers. Mysteriously it spares Morrow as it leaves. Arriving in Prodigy City, Hybrids Tootles, Smee, Nibs, and Curly encounter two other dangerous extraterrestrial specimens. A hanging pod that looks like flora but which Kirsch believes to be Fauna, and Octi-eyeball, an eyeball with tentacles. Meanwhile, Wendy locates her brother with Slightly, a fellow Hybrid, but he doesn't recognise her. Slightly reveals her true identity to a shocked Hermit who was told his sister had died. Hermit realises it's his sister Marcy after Wendy recounts very specific memories from their childhood. The three encounter several Xenomorph eggs and are ordered by Kirsh to contain them until a HazMat team arrives. But they are tracked by a Xenomorph who falls through a hole in the ship with Hermit. Wendy chases after the two, as Slightly stays behind to “guard the omelette”.THE CAST OF ALIEN EARTHSydney Chandler - WendyAlex Lawther - Hermit/JoeEssie Davis - Dame SylviaSamuel Blenkin - Boy KavalierBabou Ceesay - MorrowAdarsh Gourav - SlightlyErana James - CurlyLily Newmark - NibsJonathan Ajayi - SmeeDavid Rysdahl - Arthur SylviDiêm Camille - SiberianMoe Bar-El - RashidiAdrian Edmondson - Atom EinsTimothy Olyphant - KirshContact us and subscribe to the podcastThank you so much for listening to our Alien Earth Podcast.
