Another speculative idea: Shaw abducted?

Putting myself on the shoes of the writers of the script, I asked myself… why a sandstorm? why only Shaw? why carrying a bag? how does this fit with all the comments that we heard about Shaw’s character? It all seemed so pointless and random.
But then it struck me: we know that the race that runs that planet can terraform!!
That means they can control the weather, which means they can create a sandstorm. That sandstorm is then created on purpose in order to isolate Shaw. This race abducts her!
And why would they do that? Well, there could be many reasons: if some godly race did genetically create the Humans, wouldn’t they be keen on running some research on one of them? And Shaw is carrying a bag, which might well be some of that race’s technology (just taken from the urns?) that they don’t want stolen, therefore this might be an efficient way to get it back.
If this is correct, the “pleeease!” scene could actually be about that race running research on Shaw (doesn’t the set up of this scene seem very non-human to you? couldn’t the fact that the shot is a close-up be an indication that RS doesn’t want to show much of the race who is analyzing Shaw?). Afterwards, she would be somehow returned to the crew and would come around all bruised and stumbling, as shown in the trailer. She would then be scanned by their own crew... – ok, a bit more far-fetched: the focus of the scanning on her belly and the scene in bed (still bruised) with Logan hinting at frustration… could that be an indication that they messed up with her belly somehow?
What do you think? - How about that for what Rapace defined as Shaw’s crucial moment mid-way through the movie that has major impact on the character’s subsequent actions and behavior?
