Another excellent episode of Alien: Earth where everyone’s villain origin story is “accidentally became important at work”

The whole Peter Pan metaphor with the hybrids in Alien: Earth seems fantastic to me. I’m a Peter Pan geek and whenever allusions or metaphors about the work are made, people usually miss the point, but in this case I think it’s very well done. Boy, like Peter, wants to gather lost children so he can have fun and not be alone. He literally admits that his goal is to have someone “at his level” to talk to, which is a very obvious parallel with what Peter did by taking children to Neverland. The difference is that while Peter retains that innocent cruelty of childhood, Boy has a level of awareness that makes him much more dangerous, because his actions aren’t naive, they are intentional. That transition between unconscious childlike cruelty and the conscious cruelty of adulthood is what makes the metaphor work so well.

Especially when you consider how this Wendy also has a lot in common with Wendy from the book. In the end, the original story is also about Wendy and it tells how a girl becomes an adolescent, how she clings to her childhood but then, in a world full of children and fantasy, decides to grow up, and how, of all the children around her, she is the only one who never forgets her family. The Wendy in the series is like that: she enjoys being alive, having all those abilities, and taking on that older sister role, but she is never able to completely forget Joe, who ties her to the adult world, and she defies everything to go save her brother. I think it’s quite clever how they’ve handled the metaphor with the characters in the series, and it really works wonderfully.

Also Morrow as Hook, trapped in a time that isn’t his while chasing a beast that almost destroyed him and that he longs to kill but also fears? Chef’s kiss.

Alien: Earth 1.03 "Metamorphosis"

[id-be-home-with-you]

Morrow losing his entire crew because of Boy Kavalier while he’s hunting and at the same time being chased by a creature he both wants to kill and fears, all while swearing he’ll kill Kavalier for being responsible for his misfortune when everything Kavalier has done is basically just another one of his many spoiled, egocentric whims??? The best metaphor for the Peter/Hook dynamic ever done in fiction. The people who wrote this show are clearly real fans of the original Peter Pan and Wendy story because all the parallels they’re drawing are pure chef’s kiss.
