Did you notice how the sheep's eyes looked forward instead of naturally sideways.. It became predator looking forward instead of sideways like prey. Im writing this 3 min into the video, so I apologise if you mention it later 😅
That kind of proves that T. can interpret and use its new brain 🧠 to its advantage. Give T. enough time, it might be able to communicate at a human language level, and not just at a “fight or flight” rudimentary pace. It kinda reminds me of Kang from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
I feel like when it watched the bloodbug escape containment and tapped on the glass to get the scientist's attention, it was more to save its perceived best host.
No, that thing is pure evil. It clearly trapped the synth so the bugs would eat him. It knew the bugs only ate minerals. Killing the synth offered nothing of value, unless you want to argue a war of attrition in the hope of escape. It killed the synth for spite, and simply because it could.
Nope, they even say in the show it understands cause and effect; it saw the bug trying to get out and distracted the scientist, figuring that more variables = chaos = higher probability of escape for itself. It probably had similar thoughts in the prodigy lab
May be insignificant but has anyone else noticed how in all 3 hosts T-Ocellus has taken the left eye…the side of the brain responsible for analytical thinking, logic, language, reasoning. From the start I saw the tap on the glass as a distraction, not because it wanted to warn…in the words of Robert Muldoon ‘clever girl’ 👏🏻
That’s ok, my take was it was distracting, your take is warning…like you said no one knows yet, but to me it was using a situation to its own end. Highly intelligent and able to manipulate to its own ends…could this be the next apex predator?
The optic nerve from the left eye crosses at the optic chiasm to the right side of the brain. Vision from the left eye is processed on the right side of the brain. If T. ocellus gains access to the brain through the optic nerve then it likely gains access to the opposite side of the brain. If it penetrated deeper at made it to the thalamus (brains relay station) then maybe it would get access to both sides of the brain, or maybe the tentacles penetrate throughout the brain. it clearly has control over both sides of the body so I think your theory is wrong sorry
When it made the sheep stand up on two legs, I was like "wtf, why would it do that", but then the episode 5 shows that the previous host was a human, so that was the last body it had before the sheep and that's why it had the instinct to stand up on two legs. Also, if it has near human problem solving in it's base form, it would imply that it can be smarter than a human if it can use the human brain along with it's own brain, when possessing a human.
That’s what we all kinda wait for, since it could do a LOT already, I wonder what would happen with a real-real smart person. I mean not that shmule wasnt smart or so, but you get it I’m really waiting on it to take a human and speak 😂
@Devil0027true, they were kinda damaged, maybe from the impact or so, but damn, it sure wants to adapt as quickly as possible, using anything to get bipedal 😂
It's less about the previous hosts being a human, and more about the implications that it remembers everything the previous hosts can do and/or know. What is scary is that it learns and remembers what it learned in order to solve future problems. Imagine it using the sheep to stand bipedal just to reach a door handle. That way it can get to the sleeping farmers in their house 🏠🏡. Hypothetically speaking of course. Or imagine if it puppeted a Gorilla 🦍 like Harambee or something, but it used the intelligence of previous human and alien hosts to solve problems using the limbs of the Gorilla 🦍. Such as, opening exits, or using weapons 🔪🔫.
Preyed on. I find it hard to imagine they did not wipe their planet from all higher liveforms. Look what we do. What might it have done. I say all higher lifeforms on their homeworld are dead. We did not see how it feeds or reproduces only its habbit of using up a lot of biological resources.
@_TheViewer_not true in the comic they have prey and predators on the xeno homeworld. They are more complex creatures than how your trying to simplif it.
@_TheViewer_the argument can be made that the xeno is biomechanical, a organic machine. So it probably won’t need to eat. However some variations look more organic like David’s that he reverse engineered in covenant, or the hybrid clones in resurrection
Easily the best new character introduced in the Alien Saga. Shes become my favorite in Alien Earth along with Kirsh. Morrow comes 3rd for me. But the T Ocellus has so much potential I just hope they do something truly interesting with it.
Why did T-Ocellus use its tentacles to make the meanface on Shmuel when it grabbed his upper right lip??! Can it not control the whole human system!? I believe T-O out for its self and lookin for the right socket and brain to complete it natural mission!? Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the T- Ocellus Its season one mission: to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no eyes has gone before!
It could be that Ock is intelligent enough to know that it's been abducted by alien idiots and they are going to do horrible tests on it. Can we blame it for trying to escape? I'm curious as to whether it can use a synthetic as a host. I'd also like to know if it would affect a willing host differently.
The thought that keeps coming to me is, given how rapidly it can attach to, and takeover the motor functions of a variety of different species, what else is it accessing along with motor control; Memories? Instincts? Immunities? Does its host body survive its symbiosis, albeit now disabled? The other thing that still puzzles me, is when it uses one of its tentacles to make the crewmember smirk. Its such an unusual action in so many ways. Is the idea of contorted facial expressions difficult for it to achieve through the host? Is it sensing it has been exposed and mocking/taunting the onlooker? The fact it understands the social connection of such facial expressions is already wild, but the fact it chooses to directly generate such an expression with its own body's appendages is such an interesting development.
I don't think it used it's tentacle to make the smirk. I think the tentacle just went up the nose because the smirk came with a growl. So it doesn't need to use direct puppeteering, it already has control of the nervous system.
The ocellus is dangerous, no doubt. Though only high on the predator list if it hijacks an advanced host. It's not exactly popping eyeballs all over the place. The xeno went beast mode! Mass murderer vs serial killer
We don’t even know what the eye species is doing. Yeah we can see it taking over a host, but why is it? Why does it prefer humanoids? Part of me also think it knows way more than we think, and that it’s trying to communicate with us through a host
I think this is my favorite creature from the franchise. It's just diabolical. I find myself totally disgusted by it and yet feel myself rooting for the little terror over all the other characters because it's just so eerily intelligent. The creepiness of the sheep with the bulged out, ever-watching eye is so damn good.
Especially THESE creators. The dumbest of the dumb. None of the show makes sense. Looks great, sure. Makes zero sense though. No intelligent person would do any of what every character does, and dont even get me started on the retard talk the "children" constantly use even though they have access to every computer system, proven by Wendy.
As is so often the case in horror films, the creatures only manage to overpower the humans because the characters keep making one foolish decision after another. A research mission brings extremely dangerous alien beings aboard a spaceship. Nobody knows what diseases they might carry, yet not a single scientist wears protective gear. Many of the incidents shown in the lab could have been easily avoided. One of the most absurd moments is the scene where the glass container holding the T-Ocellus simply falls off a shelf and shatters. Realistically, if such a dangerous life form were stored, it certainly wouldn’t be kept in a flimsy glass jar that breaks at the first fall. Equally questionable is the scientist casually bringing her lunch into the laboratory. In the end, the creatures don’t win because they are truly unstoppable, but because the humans doom themselves with their own completely illogical choices. :-D
T. Ocellus almost makes the Xenomorph old hat. I want to know more about this organism. Noah Hawley hit this one out of the park! The fact that one of the tentacles reached out of the nose, grabbed the Maginot engineer’s upper lip to give a sneer is a total pirate move and cinematic gold. Part of me gets the total willies and the rest of me wants it as a pet 😂. The Death Orchid is the other creature that piqued my interest.
If two T-Ocellus took over each of the eye sockets of a host, would they work collectively? Or would a fight for dominance occur? I wonder if a hierarchy and an "Alpha" is established in the T-Ocellus species. Or is Species 64 a solitary predator.
The one we see is female so maybe they use the host to breed. If the male and female both are in the host it goes into a breeding phase or something. I have a feeling that they are intelligent enough to identify something is occupied, leading them to search for it's mate 🤔 all speculation course.
@ΓΙΩΡΓΟΣΜΑΝΤΖΙΟΣ-δ4ρyes I think after the assimilation of the ocular pathways the brain would be compromised, perhaps with skill and appropriate equipment. But if you were to just merely pull it out I'm sure it will cause instantaneous shock, killing the host or causing severe damage. I'm sure we will see when it leaves the sheep or is removed in an experiment. Hopefully
It is not the size of a human eye nor completely compatible with a human eye socket. It’s the size of an engineer’s eye. I suspect engineers were either a part of their environment or they were engineered by them for surveillance or espionage
Most likely this alien comes from a Cloudy planet with two suns This is because of the biology of the alien and the type of evolution it would need in order to survive in it's environment according to it's biological structure A cloudy environment with high amounts of light exposure do to the compact cloud nature caused by high gravity sound waves can not travel far making vision and touch more necessary than audio input. Most of the planet would be water and rock with dense clouds eveloping the entire planet do to the heat and light of two suns Walking on the planet would be like walking through bright hot thick fog under high gravity and all planetary species are adapted to living in this state. Electrical storms are the real danger because of clouds forming on the ground and pressure changes.
If the T-ocellus can't join with a synth or a xeno then the most powerful host after that will be boy genius. Last scene, season finale, cliffhanger, T-ocellos joins with boy genius BUT IT DOES NOT KILL HIM.
The T. ocellus doesn’t kill ANY of the hosts, it’s a true parasite (xenos are parasitoids, like wasps - they kill the host as part of their lifecycle). If you meant you think the eye will keeps the host’s independent brain function and become a hybrid mind of some sort, I can get behind that.
@cetialpha-vi Exaxtly my point to your last sentence. The host will die as the parasite leaves the body but until then it has full control over all functions & possibly memories & intellect of it's host (along with its exceptionally high intellect)
It's intelligent, can calculate and plan, it can show fear, it knows how to call the Xenomorphs, it can learn from its hosts, it also knows it needs to look after its hosts. > It planned the distraction, knowing the ticks would go for the water, the water she knew Chibuzo was obsessed with (yes its referred to as "she" by Kirsh at one point). > it recoiled when Morrow pointed the gun, how many animals do you know that would recoil when you point an unknown object at them. > It called the Xenomorph, hoping it would deal with Morrow and the gun. > It ends up attacking the Xeno, not to protect itself or to save the humans, but out of predator instinct, a war cry before attacking is a big thing in predator circles, it didnt plan on Morrow dipping so it had to fight or it would lose its host. > In sheep mode it casually ends up eating the straw. (Both the distraction and the calling of the Xeno was confirmed by the shows director so they are no longer theories) T Ocelleus is by no means "just another alien" it has become the star attraction.
I don't think this creature is completely monovalent. It tried to communicate and warn it's captors. That infers empathy. I think it made the sheep stand upright because it was trying to communicate again. It attacked the Xenomorph when it did not need to. I think it is very sentient. I think it may be very smart and all it wants to do it communicate and free itself. I think it is studding it's captors as much as it is being studied. I hope they expand on that and make it out to be smarter than it's captors. Look at what it has done so far, helped the crew twice, it could have scurried off into inner ship but it tried to help the crew. There is so much more than meets the eye here.
Good theory but I feel it's "help" if that's what it can be called is no more beneficial than a farmer that chases off a wolf from preying on his cattle, he has no love for them he's still gonna eat them eventually that is the purpose they serve or in T-Ocellus case cattle to be used as host, so naturally it would seek to eliminate other Preditors as competition for prey organisms.
Wrong. I thought that too when I first watched the episode. Watch the scene again after you read this. The eye taps AFTER the tick was opened. Which makes the taps a distraction not a warning. The eye is intelligent enough to know what’s going on. It waited to tap once it was free. Then broke itself out. Then killed a crew member. It’s NOT there to help anyone but itself.
@FastBrassPrecisely, this isn't gonna be some cute R2D2 sidekick. This thing is on the level of a Predator, Alpha Xeno...and it's always thinking....It's going to be a frightening when it communicates with boy wonder being he wants an equal so bad, unfortunately it'll be the last conversation he ever has. Unless he too is a syth or hybrid.
Agreed the eye is intelligent may be it will learn to communicate with humans the more body's it takes control of im sure its not evil just a life form trying to survive after all humanity went to its plant kidnapped it put it in a cadge experimented on its not going to have good things to say able humans no wounder it attacks 😀
This is kinda outside the box, but if you notice the eye creature seems to like bipedal creatures however it is larger than a humans eye maybe it evolved to grab something like the engineers or even predators and thats another reason they have masks on lol idk just seemed weird that it was almost noticeable in the sheep size wise but it wants something with more coordination
I was hoping that the eye being tossed would eventually mutate into a new eye creature, like parasitic at its best!! Also, leech bugs are all over, I suspect we'll learn they've infested the entire islands water supply later. WAYYY too many to assume none escaped.
Remonds of a Tyranid bioform from Warhammer 40k, in one of the books captured alive "mindslaves" have a Tyranid bioform burrow in their minds; force them to maintain the Bio Ships of the Tyranid Hive Fleet, only to burst through the head once fully Mature and then begin their own maintenance procedures. The Hive mind does this to gain knoweldge about repair systems and discards the corpse to be used as biomass. Many a Man and Xenos fell prey to these. I see a lot of "subtle" Warhammer 40k references.
@6:29 Interesting that the eye is controlling the body and some facial features but it had it stick a tentacle down Shme's nose and hook his lip to express a snarl. That means it has an understanding of facial expressions and felt it worth the extra effort to make the expression. That lip raise is for the viewers understanding of what the eye wanted to express but didn't have the manipulation to do internally.
Nah the intro to this is 100% accurate. I didn’t see shit but multiple pupils and fixated on how it felt like it saw every part of me and how it acts just amps up the creepy factor 😅 Alien Earth is definitely gonna be a classic. How’d you create an alien everyone is more mesmerized with than a mf xenomorph. I get more hyped when I see T than a Xeno and this show makes the xenos shine so well so that’s saying a lot.
The eye showed attempts to warn humans at least twice that I remember. In my opinion, it knows that xenos and those ticks are exterminator species and a threat to it as well.
It's an interesting creature because it's each tentacle of an octopus can feel the world separately from what the head is doing. This is way they are so smart at escaping things.
I wonder if they based it off an octopus because each tentacle has somewhat of an independent brain for each tentacle that can react independent from each other & together in a split second. Kinda want one..
I wonder if it can turn the host eye into an incubator or maybe leave a tentacle behind to control the host eye when it jumos ship. And thats why it moves from host to host so rapidly. If it already left the root of the next generation, it doesn't need to stay with its current host for long.
Got to think of something that seem to be true. But I did wonder if a chestburster can still be alive even tho the host is dead. As I were thinking of the other victim they sent out in space. Think there could be stuff they could expand on it if that shuttle would be found by another crew in space.
Wonder if the 6th or 7th alien we haven’t scene yet is a dead or unconscious Predator, and the eye goes into the predator? To fight the xenomorphs then tries to rampage from person to person on earth
The T-ocellius in the last episode was warning the lady working with the parasites that escaped the jar by tapping the glass I wonder if it almost had human like features because although it chooses its host to infect that scene made me consider Mabe it’s possible it’s learning from humans and picking and choosing who to help if you haven’t seen that scene I suggest going back and watching it it was clearly warning her about the water and parasites she was gonna consume.
It wasnt warning her, it was distracting her. It got her attention so the tick could escape and then used the tick to cause a distraction so it could escape. It basically gambled on its freedom and it worked, which is terrifying. This is also corroborated by the showrunner in the companion podcast.
I can't believe people are still saying this when it has shown no regard for human life multiple times already. If you're in it's way, You're dead. Stay tf out of it's path, period. This creature is not your friend. It's a survivor.
I would totally try to befriend one of these things and try to get it to form a symbiosis rather than a parsitism. If its as smart as they are making it appear I bet it could figure that out. The screeches show that it is attempting to imitate communication which implies that it could be alot smarter than the scientist thought. I bet it could learn.
I wonder if Kavalier is going to try and negotiate with the eye, and electively have one of his eyes removed and allow the eye to nest, in return for cognitive sharing of information.
This is really cool, but a lot of this feels like you are looking at evolution from a teleological perspective, which I think became outdated in the 1800s
Exploring me without my permission
You are on my list of targets now human
Permission denied, optic overlord. I am rolling with Ripley, an M41A loaded with 10x24 caseless, and a taped flamethrower for dessert.
At first I thought someone made the page for a gag, but " joined 9 years ago" makes me wonder 😆 👁
Did you notice how the sheep's eyes looked forward instead of naturally sideways..
It became predator looking forward instead of sideways like prey. Im writing this 3 min into the video, so I apologise if you mention it later 😅
Big talk for some one that doesn't know pocket sand
owww you`re such a good girl.
Whoever came up with the idea for this creature is a genius
its literally a spectator from DnD but small
Probably inspired from the Divider from Dead Space
It's literally Starro from DC comic book
👁️ agree!
An evil genius! The Devil you say! LOL
Can we talk about that tentacle poking out of the nostril to pull up the lip? It's like it was trolling everyone.
I think it was trying to smile?
@BrandonDenny-we1rw I think would be more terrifying.
This is how we use emotes on video game characters
@BrandonDenny-we1rw I wonder if it was trying to be friendly?
@andyf4292 Thats what im wondering too.
It's so creepy how it's 'eye' moves first then the host's eye after a slight lag
So true, 7:38 is so shocking too, grinning through grabbing a lip, it knows what a smile mean 😂
That kind of proves that T. can interpret and use its new brain 🧠 to its advantage. Give T. enough time, it might be able to communicate at a human language level, and not just at a “fight or flight” rudimentary pace. It kinda reminds me of Kang from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
I never noticed that very interesting
Heaven forbid it finds sunglasses...😂
Sunglasses? I wanna know its opinion on contacts and eyedrops! Enlighten me, Sauron jr!
Maybe boy genius wears sun glasses to block it from being discovered that it took over him remember the eye is intelligent. 😂
I feel like when it watched the bloodbug escape containment and tapped on the glass to get the scientist's attention, it was more to save its perceived best host.
That was my thinking too
No, that thing is pure evil. It clearly trapped the synth so the bugs would eat him. It knew the bugs only ate minerals. Killing the synth offered nothing of value, unless you want to argue a war of attrition in the hope of escape. It killed the synth for spite, and simply because it could.
Nope, they even say in the show it understands cause and effect; it saw the bug trying to get out and distracted the scientist, figuring that more variables = chaos = higher probability of escape for itself. It probably had similar thoughts in the prodigy lab
According to the director’s words in the podcast, the Eye was distracting the scientist.
As someone who suffers from migraines behind my eye, this creature made me nauseous
Yes...
Those of us who suffer from that horrendous pressure and pain from migraines in the eye this has been a bit of a nightmare at times.
Yutani has deliberately hired the worst knowing it would result in infection on the ship.
May be insignificant but has anyone else noticed how in all 3 hosts T-Ocellus has taken the left eye…the side of the brain responsible for analytical thinking, logic, language, reasoning. From the start I saw the tap on the glass as a distraction, not because it wanted to warn…in the words of Robert Muldoon ‘clever girl’ 👏🏻
No one knows if it was to distract or protect.
It was warning her. Also, it's "T. Ocellus" not "T-Ocellus."
That’s ok, my take was it was distracting, your take is warning…like you said no one knows yet, but to me it was using a situation to its own end. Highly intelligent and able to manipulate to its own ends…could this be the next apex predator?
@firstlast-wm3lialright Hermione 😂 *jokes* 🤭

The last host wasn’t a human though, the cat still came after the crewman on the ship. But i don’t think the cat had legs at all
That’s what we all kinda wait for, since it could do a LOT already, I wonder what would happen with a real-real smart person.
I mean not that shmule wasnt smart or so, but you get it
I’m really waiting on it to take a human and speak 😂
@Devil0027right, I got the timeline mixed up, human, cat, sheep is the correct order.
@Devil0027true, they were kinda damaged, maybe from the impact or so, but damn, it sure wants to adapt as quickly as possible, using anything to get bipedal 😂
It's less about the previous hosts being a human, and more about the implications that it remembers everything the previous hosts can do and/or know. What is scary is that it learns and remembers what it learned in order to solve future problems.
Imagine it using the sheep to stand bipedal just to reach a door handle. That way it can get to the sleeping farmers in their house 🏠🏡. Hypothetically speaking of course.
Or imagine if it puppeted a Gorilla 🦍 like Harambee or something, but it used the intelligence of previous human and alien hosts to solve problems using the limbs of the Gorilla 🦍. Such as, opening exits, or using weapons 🔪🔫.
I want to know what kind of organism they prey on in their home world.
I would say that something with eyes and a bipedal gait
Preyed on. I find it hard to imagine they did not wipe their planet from all higher liveforms. Look what we do. What might it have done. I say all higher lifeforms on their homeworld are dead. We did not see how it feeds or reproduces only its habbit of using up a lot of biological resources.
Or nothing at all, since it’s an eye 😂
But xenos are said to don’t need any resources (perfect organism) why shouldn’t other species would need to eat
@_TheViewer_not true in the comic they have prey and predators on the xeno homeworld.
They are more complex creatures than how your trying to simplif it.
@_TheViewer_the argument can be made that the xeno is biomechanical, a organic machine. So it probably won’t need to eat. However some variations look more organic like David’s that he reverse engineered in covenant, or the hybrid clones in resurrection
The sheep scene is brutal. Omg!
The protagonist of the show 😮😮😮😮
Easily the best new character introduced in the Alien Saga. Shes become my favorite in Alien Earth along with Kirsh. Morrow comes 3rd for me. But the T Ocellus has so much potential I just hope they do something truly interesting with it.
Why did T-Ocellus use its tentacles to make the meanface on Shmuel when it grabbed his upper right lip??! Can it not control the whole human system!?

These are the voyages of the T- Ocellus Its season one mission: to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no eyes has gone before!
The Eye of Sauron is the star of the show.
It could be that Ock is intelligent enough to know that it's been abducted by alien idiots and they are going to do horrible tests on it. Can we blame it for trying to escape?

Ocellus wrestled a super strong synth and a Xenomorph. It's definitely no slouch.
I think it knows the danger of the xenomorph, and tried to warn them!
Not sure if it’s a bad creature!
I think this is my favorite creature from the franchise. It's just diabolical. I find myself totally disgusted by it and yet feel myself rooting for the little terror over all the other characters because it's just so eerily intelligent. The creepiness of the sheep with the bulged out, ever-watching eye is so damn good.
Sometimes I think videos like these give the creators of the show too much credit
Especially THESE creators. The dumbest of the dumb. None of the show makes sense. Looks great, sure. Makes zero sense though. No intelligent person would do any of what every character does, and dont even get me started on the retard talk the "children" constantly use even though they have access to every computer system, proven by Wendy.
Seeing it has tentacles like a octopus, than maybe it has 1 brain PER tentacle 😮
As is so often the case in horror films, the creatures only manage to overpower the humans because the characters keep making one foolish decision after another.
A research mission brings extremely dangerous alien beings aboard a spaceship. Nobody knows what diseases they might carry, yet not a single scientist wears protective gear.

Equally questionable is the scientist casually bringing her lunch into the laboratory.
In the end, the creatures don’t win because they are truly unstoppable, but because the humans doom themselves with their own completely illogical choices. :-D
Its just a bad show, I hope the writers are never allowed to touch alien or predator stuff ever again
“MASTER OF PUPPETS I’M PULLIN YOUR STRIIIIINGS😈!!!”
Better be the next song they play or that’s a SERIOUS MISSED OPPORTUNITY 🤘😂
I was thinking Puppet Master by B Real Cypress Hill😂
T. Ocellus almost makes the Xenomorph old hat. I want to know more about this organism. Noah Hawley hit this one out of the park! The fact that one of the tentacles reached out of the nose, grabbed the Maginot engineer’s upper lip to give a sneer is a total pirate move and cinematic gold. Part of me gets the total willies and the rest of me wants it as a pet 😂.
The Death Orchid is the other creature that piqued my interest.
If boy wonder starts wearing an eye patch, its safe to say hes not cosplaying captain hook... 👁🗨
If two T-Ocellus took over each of the eye sockets of a host, would they work collectively? Or would a fight for dominance occur? I wonder if a hierarchy and an "Alpha" is established in the T-Ocellus species. Or is Species 64 a solitary predator.
The one we see is female so maybe they use the host to breed. If the male and female both are in the host it goes into a breeding phase or something. I have a feeling that they are intelligent enough to identify something is occupied, leading them to search for it's mate 🤔 all speculation course.
That is indeed a great question? I have another question if you tried to take it out of the eye socket of the person would the person die?
@ΓΙΩΡΓΟΣΜΑΝΤΖΙΟΣ-δ4ρyes I think after the assimilation of the ocular pathways the brain would be compromised, perhaps with skill and appropriate equipment. But if you were to just merely pull it out I'm sure it will cause instantaneous shock, killing the host or causing severe damage. I'm sure we will see when it leaves the sheep or is removed in an experiment. Hopefully
well with the fact it only goes after the left side of the head more than likely two T-Ocellus species probably cannot control the same host
They would probably fight for territory because species 64 is Asexual and achieves a hive mind through multiple host.
One of the creepiest alien species in the series I hope to see more
You've forgotten the fighting scene between the eye and xenomorph
It is not the size of a human eye nor completely compatible with a human eye socket. It’s the size of an engineer’s eye. I suspect engineers were either a part of their environment or they were engineered by them for surveillance or espionage
Most likely this alien comes from a Cloudy planet with two suns
This is because of the biology of the alien and the type of evolution it would need in order to survive in it's environment according to it's biological structure
A cloudy environment with high amounts of light exposure do to the compact cloud nature caused by high gravity sound waves can not travel far making vision and touch more necessary than audio input.
Most of the planet would be water and rock with dense clouds eveloping the entire planet do to the heat and light of two suns
Walking on the planet would be like walking through bright hot thick fog under high gravity and all planetary species are adapted to living in this state.
Electrical storms are the real danger because of clouds forming on the ground and pressure changes.
If the T-ocellus can't join with a synth or a xeno then the most powerful host after that will be boy genius.
Last scene, season finale, cliffhanger, T-ocellos joins with boy genius BUT IT DOES NOT KILL HIM.
That’s my theory.its working its way up the food chain . That’s how it evolved to survive on its world
The T. ocellus doesn’t kill ANY of the hosts, it’s a true parasite (xenos are parasitoids, like wasps - they kill the host as part of their lifecycle). If you meant you think the eye will keeps the host’s independent brain function and become a hybrid mind of some sort, I can get behind that.
@cetialpha-vi Exaxtly my point to your last sentence. The host will die as the parasite leaves the body but until then it has full control over all functions & possibly memories & intellect of it's host (along with its exceptionally high intellect)
They should make a spinoff movie of this creature. Its becoming one of my favorite things in the Alien universe.
It's intelligent, can calculate and plan, it can show fear, it knows how to call the Xenomorphs, it can learn from its hosts, it also knows it needs to look after its hosts.
> It planned the distraction, knowing the ticks would go for the water, the water she knew Chibuzo was obsessed with (yes its referred to as "she" by Kirsh at one point).
> it recoiled when Morrow pointed the gun, how many animals do you know that would recoil when you point an unknown object at them.
> It called the Xenomorph, hoping it would deal with Morrow and the gun.
> It ends up attacking the Xeno, not to protect itself or to save the humans, but out of predator instinct, a war cry before attacking is a big thing in predator circles, it didnt plan on Morrow dipping so it had to fight or it would lose its host.
> In sheep mode it casually ends up eating the straw.
(Both the distraction and the calling of the Xeno was confirmed by the shows director so they are no longer theories)
T Ocelleus is by no means "just another alien" it has become the star attraction.
I don't think this creature is completely monovalent. It tried to communicate and warn it's captors. That infers empathy. I think it made the sheep stand upright because it was trying to communicate again. It attacked the Xenomorph when it did not need to. I think it is very sentient. I think it may be very smart and all it wants to do it communicate and free itself. I think it is studding it's captors as much as it is being studied. I hope they expand on that and make it out to be smarter than it's captors. Look at what it has done so far, helped the crew twice, it could have scurried off into inner ship but it tried to help the crew. There is so much more than meets the eye here.
Good theory but I feel it's "help" if that's what it can be called is no more beneficial than a farmer that chases off a wolf from preying on his cattle, he has no love for them he's still gonna eat them eventually that is the purpose they serve or in T-Ocellus case cattle to be used as host, so naturally it would seek to eliminate other Preditors as competition for prey organisms.
Wrong. I thought that too when I first watched the episode. Watch the scene again after you read this. The eye taps AFTER the tick was opened. Which makes the taps a distraction not a warning. The eye is intelligent enough to know what’s going on. It waited to tap once it was free. Then broke itself out. Then killed a crew member. It’s NOT there to help anyone but itself.
@FastBrassPrecisely, this isn't gonna be some cute R2D2 sidekick. This thing is on the level of a Predator, Alpha Xeno...and it's always thinking....It's going to be a frightening when it communicates with boy wonder being he wants an equal so bad, unfortunately it'll be the last conversation he ever has. Unless he too is a syth or hybrid.
Showrunner conformed it was distracting the doctor to let the ticks escape
Agreed the eye is intelligent may be it will learn to communicate with humans the more body's it takes control of im sure its not evil just a life form trying to survive after all humanity went to its plant kidnapped it put it in a cadge experimented on its not going to have good things to say able humans no wounder it attacks 😀
This is kinda outside the box, but if you notice the eye creature seems to like bipedal creatures however it is larger than a humans eye maybe it evolved to grab something like the engineers or even predators and thats another reason they have masks on lol idk just seemed weird that it was almost noticeable in the sheep size wise but it wants something with more coordination
Non Canon no engineers thank god again
@elvinsolano6177 Tf.. Engineers are canon
I honestly think d. Plumbacare will actually be more brutal it’s a plant that can walk on its own
Damn man big respect to how much homework you did for this little sci-fi creature. Absolutely insane and I'm going to be here for any other alien
Wonder what it’s lifespan is its age before capture plus 65 years
Fantastic video!!! Awesome work
I was hoping that the eye being tossed would eventually mutate into a new eye creature, like parasitic at its best!! Also, leech bugs are all over, I suspect we'll learn they've infested the entire islands water supply later. WAYYY too many to assume none escaped.
Would have been interesting if it used the mechanic's goggles as a way to hide.
Remonds of a Tyranid bioform from Warhammer 40k, in one of the books captured alive "mindslaves" have a Tyranid bioform burrow in their minds; force them to maintain the Bio Ships of the Tyranid Hive Fleet, only to burst through the head once fully Mature and then begin their own maintenance procedures. The Hive mind does this to gain knoweldge about repair systems and discards the corpse to be used as biomass.
Many a Man and Xenos fell prey to these.
I see a lot of "subtle" Warhammer 40k references.
the skirt between the tenatacles,, looks like it can swim
The octopus legs are made out of muscle and brain matter
@6:29 Interesting that the eye is controlling the body and some facial features but it had it stick a tentacle down Shme's nose and hook his lip to express a snarl. That means it has an understanding of facial expressions and felt it worth the extra effort to make the expression. That lip raise is for the viewers understanding of what the eye wanted to express but didn't have the manipulation to do internally.
I move the time to where he did that
The tentacle slipping out the nostril to pull the lip up for a snarl... nightmare fuel
It always seems to go for the left eye. As far as I've seen anyway.
No way - the eye is much larger and the countenance is way off. Any human would know something is not right.
How does it eat and breed?
It also looks like it only targets the left eye of its host
It made the sheep stand up because it was saying look at me! I am the captain now!
These weird looking eyeball things is weird as hell I would never want to encounter one of these things😂😂
It is by far the scariest alien I've ever seen on screen! The sheep adds to the fear factor!
T ocelus guaruntees 1 thing only. A nick fury / t ocelus comic run! Im calling it now, lmao
👁️ think that was an amazing analysis 👁️
Nah the intro to this is 100% accurate. I didn’t see shit but multiple pupils and fixated on how it felt like it saw every part of me and how it acts just amps up the creepy factor 😅 Alien Earth is definitely gonna be a classic. How’d you create an alien everyone is more mesmerized with than a mf xenomorph. I get more hyped when I see T than a Xeno and this show makes the xenos shine so well so that’s saying a lot.
T ocellus is kind of adorable to me but I’d never wanna exist near it ever.
Hope we get to see where it came from in future 😮
Does the host still have any consciousness left when the T ocellus takes over ?
Ask the Sheep 🐑
Reminds me of the Divider from Dead Space
Damn the Neversoft logo really fell on hard times.
The eye showed attempts to warn humans at least twice that I remember. In my opinion, it knows that xenos and those ticks are exterminator species and a threat to it as well.
It looks like something out of MTG's Duskmourn's house of horrors.
I thought it was a TV series not a movie ..
I wonder if bright light would hurt or blind it
It's an interesting creature because it's each tentacle of an octopus can feel the world separately from what the head is doing. This is way they are so smart at escaping things.
I like the idea of new aliens, but i wish the hammer snakes from Prometheus were present
Those were caused from worms getting infected from pathogen jars. They havent found pathogen jars at this point of the timeline
Non canon thank god, smh
Fear not, they are still out there, somewhere.
@elvinsolano6177 umm the hammer-snakes ARE canon lol
Did you not watch Covenant?
Good pets
I wonder if they based it off an octopus because each tentacle has somewhat of an independent brain for each tentacle that can react independent from each other & together in a split second.
Kinda want one..
I can’t be the only one that thought they look like the half life xen fungus
For me the odd thing that I've noticed it insert itself in the left eye. Do you think they come in pair and righty is somewhere out there?
I believe it has multiple dense micro brains working independently and in unison like octopus arms. Each iris is a brain.
How did it enter the engineers eye without blood ?
I wonder if it can turn the host eye into an incubator or maybe leave a tentacle behind to control the host eye when it jumos ship. And thats why it moves from host to host so rapidly. If it already left the root of the next generation, it doesn't need to stay with its current host for long.
Why does it go to the left eye and not the right?
The eye appears to be designed to fit the engineers.
It made calculated moves to escape, and even tried to warn the crew when the "blood bug" escaped and deposited eggs into the water jar.
If you were to shine a lazer in it's pupil would it be blinded then?
Yautja host inbound… 😎👍
Welp i know what im doing for Halloween
This is making me crave Calamari
Got to think of something that seem to be true. But I did wonder if a chestburster can still be alive even tho the host is dead. As I were thinking of the other victim they sent out in space.
Think there could be stuff they could expand on it if that shuttle would be found by another crew in space.
Wonder is the eye victim is still conscious of what's going on...
I really don't get how the different irises can move independently. wouldn't that be like moving two punched-out holes across a sheet of paper?
it always replaced the left eye. 🐙
Wonder if the 6th or 7th alien we haven’t scene yet is a dead or unconscious Predator, and the eye goes into the predator? To fight the xenomorphs then tries to rampage from person to person on earth
Did anyone see the tiny tendrils that ring the bottom of the eye? I am guessing they're to hold into the socket
It should be ship mandatory to keep pocket sand to defend ahain the eye ball
The T-ocellius in the last episode was warning the lady working with the parasites that escaped the jar by tapping the glass I wonder if it almost had human like features because although it chooses its host to infect that scene made me consider Mabe it’s possible it’s learning from humans and picking and choosing who to help if you haven’t seen that scene I suggest going back and watching it it was clearly warning her about the water and parasites she was gonna consume.
It wasnt warning her, it was distracting her. It got her attention so the tick could escape and then used the tick to cause a distraction so it could escape. It basically gambled on its freedom and it worked, which is terrifying. This is also corroborated by the showrunner in the companion podcast.
I can't believe people are still saying this when it has shown no regard for human life multiple times already. If you're in it's way, You're dead. Stay tf out of it's path, period. This creature is not your friend. It's a survivor.
This creature also tried to attack and take over a fully grown xenomorph but luckily it got away. One tough sob.
I'll still call it an eyetopus, thank you
Reminds me of the aliens from the Simpsons.
I would totally try to befriend one of these things and try to get it to form a symbiosis rather than a parsitism. If its as smart as they are making it appear I bet it could figure that out. The screeches show that it is attempting to imitate communication which implies that it could be alot smarter than the scientist thought. I bet it could learn.
Id like to see the world it came from. Is there a lot of them there or are they kinda rare? Imagine a bunch of them coming at you like spiders.
i haven't seen what's inside of that eye
Right out of scp. The eye crab.
I wonder if Kavalier is going to try and negotiate with the eye, and electively have one of his eyes removed and allow the eye to nest, in return for cognitive sharing of information.
Après avoir prit le mécano dans l’épisode 5, pourquoi le t.ocellus👁️retourne dans le mouton en cage dans l’épisode 6???🤷🏻♂️
This is really cool, but a lot of this feels like you are looking at evolution from a teleological perspective, which I think became outdated in the 1800s
When it tried to thump on the side of its case, I thought "the eye" was trying to warn, not distract
Definitely a distraction
