"In the show's fourth episode, "Observation," the sinister mega-corporation Prodigy conducts an observational study of a yet-unnamed, unidentified alien creature, dubbed "Species 64," per an onscreen terminal. As a reminder, this show is all about five creatures who crash-land on Earth, among them the iconic Xenomorph. With the (presumptively) one Xenomorph well and dead, it's the other aliens who are going to matter in a big way until the end of the season."
"Species 64 is an especially gross entity, what I can only describe as an eyeball with multiple irises that walks around on octopus tentacles. Apparently parasitic in nature, Species 64 violently latches onto another being by ripping out its eye and embedding into the socket, essentially becoming its "new" eye while usurping absolute control of its host's faculties. Species 64 first appeared in episode 2, where it emerged out of the pet cat of the fallen USCSS Maginot and failed to latch onto Nibs."
"Cut to regurgitated milk and Eggo waffles soaked into my uniform. About a year later, a stapler fell on my big toe, after which I bled profusely as the nail slowly fell off. I've pissed in fraternity house toilets and flipped over mattresses to discover bedbug larvae. Just before the pandemic, I watched a guy stand up and shit his pants on the 2 train in the New York City subway."
An individual recounts numerous personally traumatic and gross experiences yet remains particularly disturbed by Alien: Earth. In episode four, Prodigy conducts an observational study of an unidentified creature labelled Species 64. The series centers on five crash-landed creatures, including a presumably deceased Xenomorph, leaving the remaining aliens to drive the season's stakes. Species 64 resembles an eyeball with multiple irises on octopus-like tentacles. The organism appears parasitic, ripping out a host's eye and embedding itself into the socket to become the host's new eye while seizing complete control. Species 64 first emerged from a cat and later attaches to a sheep during study.
