Summary

This week, Da7e and Neil are trapped in a shipping container with a Xenomorph as Alien: Earth continues its barrage of world-building.

In The Calm [07:38], they attempt to draw more parallels to J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan, discuss the lore surrounding the Prodigy corporation, and advocate for workers' rights like... [checks notes] not giving a corporation the power to remove your body parts without your consent.

Then, in The Storm [01:23:16], they dig into the teaser for episode 4 and become immediately concerned for the safety of at least one Lost Boy. And they revisit the question of whether there's going to be any Predator stuff in this show.
