Welcome to Stuff to Blow Your Mind, a production of iHeartRadio's House of Works.

Hey you welcome to Stuff to Blow Your Mind, my name is Robert Lamb and I'm Joe McCormack and today we're going to be talking about a concept in psychology but I thought we should get there with a little bit of sci-fi story time.

Yeah let's do it let's let's unearth one of the classics here to help us better understand this really and I think kind of intimidatingly named a concept.

Yeah it's actually I think a fairly straightforward concept once you see it in the context of a story.

Yes.

So gather ye round the fire and let me tell you a tale of how one day the wail and commercial towing vessel the USC SS and Astroma was in transit returning a few million tons of ore from an off world mining planet I guess you recognize what this is now Robert.

Oh this would be really Scott's alien of course it is so in the middle of its return journey the crew of the Nostroma was awakened by a distress beacon emanating from a desolate uninhabited wind swept planet with no indigestion.

So the ship unhitched from its cargo and it's set down on the planet to investigate three officers including the captain Dallas left the ship in EVA suits to locate the source of the distress call leaving the warrant officer Ellen Ripley in charge of the vessel until they return.

So she's in command now and while the party is away Ripley sits in a cold room alone breathing stale air analyzing the distress signal from the beacon and she begins to have a hunch that the signal is not actually a call for help but a warning to stay away.

After a few hours the surface party returns with two crew members carrying a third member named Cain who is unconscious and the captain of the ship Dallas who was again he was a member of the away party he asks Ripley to open the hatch and let them inside and Ripley.

She wants to ask a few questions first she asks what's wrong with Cain Dallas tells her that he has something attached to him Ripley asks well what is it.

Dallas says it's some kind of organism and he orders her to open the doors and let them in Ripley refuses she says it's against procedure to let an unknown organism on board and Cain will have to be kept outside in quarantine for 24 hours Dallas says Cain could die in 24 hours and tells her again to let them inside again Ripley refuses saying the quarantine procedure must be obeyed.

Furious Dallas overrides her and then gets another crew member ash play by Ian home to use his authority is captain to have the doors opened anyway they bring Cain inside and take him to medical bay where Ian home waits and of course everything else in the film spirals out from this.

Ash of course we later find out is a synthetic he's an android yeah and so he's he has some some key programming and some key directives from the company that are influencing his excitement here as well but I don't want to ask about ash quite yet I want to ask about Ripley and Dallas in analyzing this scene I just want to ask a couple questions about the characters behaviors number one why did Ripley refuse to let her crew mates back inside.
