What is happening to Shaw as she pleads for someone or thing to "Stop. Please!!"

There is no real evidence of how Shaw gets pregnant with the Alien thing, could be several ideas, the stop please could either be the violation part or the medi pod part. I believe the "Abortion" scene with the Alien tentacle thing is what Ridley Scott was referring to as the "Chest burster moment" but who the hell knows

@karstenphd: That's the scene when she is having a c-section to remove the monster she produces after being fertilized by the infected Holloway. She is not upside down. She is inside the MedPod... The "stop-please" could be her crying in pain because of the procedure...

What confuses me is she is meant to be Alone in that scene, and later she drops to her knees in front of the crew members, did she Abort an Alien, have its tentacle slap against the door, walk away to some crew and fall over ? im sure there is a lot missing here

There are a lot of voiceovers in the trailer, so the "please" doesn´t necessarily belong to the scene with Shaw hanging upside down.

Thanks guys, I"m leaning toward her being inpregnated and then fighting off some techs, as seen in some trailers. She feins sleep, hitting one of the medtechs or scientist with a weighted object and possibly knocking them out, I then imagine her going to a medi pod and self c-sectioning herself to stop some crewmembers from forcing her to carry the fetus to term. She is being held in a lab, escapes and then is not put under anesthesia during a c-section that I think she is doing on herself to get what the Company wants inside her to come to full term out. It seems as if they would at least put her under during a c-section but maybe she learns that the organism inside of her is more important than her health. Why would she cry please stop when she is c- sectioning herself. Afterwards she walks exhuasted into the room with the old man and some guys around him bloodied and stitched up and collapses in the doorway. No one was assisting with that procedure imo.

I do believe the "stop please" phrase, might not be in the med pod scene or the holloway scene; remember trailers shows stuff in different context. ( plus think Damon Lindehof ) I do remember Ridley stating that the kind of "chestburster " scene is very intimate with no spectators, so may be shaw-holloway, shaw-david or just Shaw. There's still a lot to be seen

Personally, i wouldn't want them doing a scene like for the movie. Don't get me wrong, i'm all for tension, but it's really unnecessary...rape scenes. Everything from Deliverance, to An American History X is just ridiculous. And i really don't want fhem pulling an American History X on us... It's a simple case of "i don't wanna see that shit", nothing more. Im not going by visual disturbance, it's about the 'unnecessary factor' more than anything, really. Hopefully Shaw simply gets infected, by OTHER means...

i'm going to say it's during the emergency med-pod scene her being raped - would be lame, women in films as the ones being violated is so played out (damn - - that sounded cold) i have zero problem watching a male being raped, it makes the general male viewing audience squirm in their seats, and i get a private kick out of men feeling "violated"

She doesn't say 'stop please' she just says 'please'.

Shaw's not hanging upside down ... that is a shot directly over her head, a different view, on the MedPod ... if you get a screenshot of that scene, rotate it 180 you'll see it better ;) ...

@karstenphd Thats a good point. It would depend though if indeed Shaw is alone in the Med Pod Scene. The way the scenes are its hard to peice them together, could she had been taken to the Pod by the Team. That scene where she is being held down by Crew Members i mean could that be after she falls on her knees infront of what looks like David and the guy in the Wheel Chair, does she collapse they then put her on the scanner and find something inside and then call the Science Team to then restrain her? We just dont know those scenes could fit in any manner its hard to say which order they apear. So that please scene could be 1) During a Scene that she gets impregnated. 2) During a Scene where they find something growing in her. 3) During the actual C-Section. who knows? As far as Rape goes, well it depends i mean would you class forced artificial insemination as Rape? A number of people who report being abducted by Greys say that they was Raped by them but not by them having sex with them, but by forcefull proping and other invasive experiements. Maybe thats whats going on?

Well, considering this is a PG-13 film I would guess that this is the scene where David has tied her up and has been telling her knock-knock jokes nonstop for several hours.

I'm sure Ushbuck would have some fascinating ideas to offer.

Or...she gets trapped by the personel favoured by Mr. Weyland...they have seen that the suit-reaper slug, only mutates or devowes a male....but can behave totally different to a female human...trying to preserve it until it is inpregnated and keeps her alive until the newborn comes to life... Obviously they force her inside the med pod ...probably wanting to see what will happen as they knew that a female person can get impregnated.... She pleads for a stop....she must probably have started feeling some of the creature's tentacles trying to punch through her flesh...maybe this way inpregnating her...maybe that's why she appears having lots of small wounds over her whole body...remove it by herself? Improbable....who knows?

Maybe she's asking this forum to stop speculating on everything. But then, that's our raison d'etre isn't it?
