MemberOvomorphMay-19-2017 4:20 AMI got two points i´d like to share here:
1) MOTHER granted David access to the chamber that inhabits the embryos and the 2000 colonists. David identifies himself as "David" to her and he also knows the access-code. This gave me the thought that MOTHER´s programmers must be aware of David. (I can´t remember who, but i guess it was David) said something like "2000 colonists and embroys on a mission to an unknown planet, doesn´t that sound a little strange to you?"
My conclusion is, that who ever (WY-Corp?) sent the Covenant on its tripp to Origae-6 is aware of the things that are going on. Maybe they where warned by E. Shaw and saw a chance to make a profit in any way, like they did years later with the Nostromo-Crew... They sent David human guinea pigs or something.
2) Comparing the protomorph and the xenomorph:
- the proto lacks in all the biomechanic stuff of the xeno.
- the proto is more like a wild beast/animal on a rampage. The xeno is more like a quiet hunter, well-considered.
David is a biomechanical/synthetic android, who´s also well-considered and more quiet in his behaviour... you do the math.
I love the idea that David continues his experiments and comes to the conclusion "Hey, I am far better then my creators. Therefore my creation must become even more powerful if I combine it with myself."
One last question: how did David craft the eggs? Did he breed a "proto-queen" from Shaw who was the only human beeing he had access to?
Sorry for my bad english...
