Best idea for how alien embryos got into Ripley in Alien3

When Bishop was preparing to crawl down the service tunnel to pilot the dropship down, he told Ripley that it would take (in total) approx 3 hours. Earlier in the movie, it was established that the place was going to blow up in approx 4 hours. This left Bishop an extra hour during which he could have: fetched 2 eggs and hidden them. While Ripley was rescuing Newt, Bishop could've then returned to pick up the eggs and put them in the drop ship. He'd then fly back to pick up Ripley and give some bogus story to cover up why he was late. [b]BOOOYAAAAAAA[/b]

I love it! Now where exactly did Bishop get these eggs? ;)

The Queen was never IN the Sulaco, she just hitched a ride on the landing gear. Sadly the production on Alien 3 was a mess and the whole movie was cut and re-written so many times it's hard to know what is true. It certainly does make it look like Bishop is to blame for the eggs being there though, but I believe that is only due to the issues with the editing of Alien 3.

The notion of the 'Bishop' android (complying to 'Company' orders from 'Burke') being responsible for placing a couple of eggs nearby the Sulaco's hypersleep pods is certainly interesting...because it gives a real dark new edge to our view of 'Bishop' which CONTRADICTS his supposedly benign rescue of Ripley and Newt, and saving Newt from being sucked out of the Sulaco... However, as abordoli asked - Where did the eggs come from in the first place, for them to have been hidden near the Sulaco's hypersleep pods anyway? As snorkelbottom said, it's stated in ALIENS that there are only a couple of 'facehuggers' alive still...and these are the ones that are presumably let loose on the sleeping Ripley and Newt, before the marines kill them... ...and it's likely that the ones that the Queen laid were ALL destroyed by Ripley and the subsequent explosions in her lair. And the Queen can't have laid any more afterwards, because she'd ripped off her 'egg-sac' to escape the fire before managing to get onto the 'Dropship's landing gear... However, I guess it could be argued that perhaps some ADDITIONAL 'unseen-by-us' egg specimens were stored somewhere nearby the 'facehugger' specimens in the the containment tanks seen in ALIENS...and a couple of these 'unseen' eggs could have been the ones used by 'Burke' and 'Bishop'... [b]But my problem with this whole scenario is this -[/b] Even if 'Bishop' could have somehow taken then placed a couple of eggs in the Sulaco without them hatching...why would 'Burke' get 'Bishop' to hide a couple of eggs beside the hypersleep pods anyway, considering HE would have to be in one of the pods for the journey home too?...as the highly dangerous eggs would surely have posed a great risk to him also, when he was asleep?... Perhaps 'Burke' didn't think that through very well?... On the other hand, it could be argued that 'Burke' had a special, seperate hypersleep pod well away from the other pods... Either way, these are just 'imaginary' ways to explain the inconsistencies that are there onscreen...and I'd personally prefer to stick with my own 'imagined' notion of ALIEN 3's intro. (along with the rest of it, and ALIEN RESURRECTION too) merely being the feverish 'nightmares' of Ripley's hypersleep 'dreams'...as this explains the many unexplained inconsistencies and general silliness that came after ALIENS in a way that satisfies me the most!

ok

In Aliens, newt gets captured and cocooned........ There may indeed have been only one egg on the sulaco.

I agree that the design of the queen was not real good. The only time it was believable was when it was on that white cargo door with the yellow forklift on top of it. As for Alien 3, the best we can get is the director's cut, where Ripley burns up before the chestburster arrives among other improvements. As for the series, there are two categories: Alien and all the other films afterwards.
