Somehow, David manages to accomplish his goal of the perfect life form by creating a small group of eggs that should be instantly recognizable to Alien fans.
Soon after, a true xenomorph emerges from his body, David’s perfect life form.
He lures Captain Oram (Billy Crudup) to where he keeps his “successes” and Oram becomes the first man to ever succumb to a face hugger.
Luckily (for David), the unsuspecting crew of the colonist ship the Covenant arrives on his planet, giving him some 14 test subjects to work with.
