SCENE #                  SCENE DESCRIPTION                    NO. OF VOTES

1401. Opening Credits are displayed as we get bits and pieces of footage of the alien--------------------------0
infiltrating the sleeping containers of Lt. Ellen Ripley and Newt (the girl from Aliens).
After the alien gets into one of the containers via its lethal and poisonous drool,
the fire extinguishers are set off and Ripley’s pod is detached from the ship and sent
hurtling through space.

1402. We see Fiorina 161, aka Fury which is an OuterVeil Mineral Ore Factory on an--------------------------0
otherwise deserted planet. It is in essence a maximum security prison for men with
double Y chromosomes, meaning they are badder than bad. (Personally I think if
they all had double Y’s, they should at least look either more different physically or be
a hell of a lot more mean.)

1403. Ripley’s craft lands on the planet and she is rescued by the prisoners.-----------------------------------0
Then a computer is scanned over the bodies of the deceased once they are in a medical office,
and they are identified for us one by one: Dwayne Hicks (Michael Biehn), Newt,
Bishop (Lance Henricksen) and Ripley.

1404. We then see a dog barking at the alien creature and then the sun sets.----------------------------------0
(Obviously this is a set up for more barking and excitement by the dog.)

1405. The Warden, Superintendent Andrews, briefs the prisoners (25 or so) on the crash.--------------------1
Dillon (Charles Dutton) finds the presence of Ripley to be quite disruptive. It seems they all
took a vow of celibacy and see her as a potential temptation. Andrews makes assurances
that Ripley won’t bother them (yeah, right).

1406. Clemens (Charles Dance) visits Ripley and is just about to administer some-----------------------------0
medicine when Ripley awakens. Ripley demands answers on where she is and how she
got there, and Clemens is happy to oblige with answers. When Ripley attempts a nude
escape, Clemens offers clothing.

1407. Ripley returns to the wreckage that was her ship and hears of the deaths-----------------------------0
of her crew members (we get to see a very bloodshot eye – I think she was drinking
too much the night before this scene was shot!). She does notice some damage as
probably being inflicted by the alien creature.

1408. One of the prisoners finds his faithful dog (the one barking earlier),-----------------------------------0
but strangely enough the dog seems to have been attacked by something.
Hmmm, I wonder what that could be?

1409. Ripley sees Newt’s body and wants a moment alone which Clemens gives her.--------------------0
But then Ripley begins to touch Newt’s body in ways only a pedophile could love.
Oh, then she requests an autopsy. (Hey, that’s necrophilia Miss Ripley!) To explain
away the autopsy, she says Newt might have cholera (which was eradicated 200 years before).

1410. Clemens doesn’t belive Ripley but does autopsy anyway and find nothing.--------------------0
Ripley seems stumped and then when Andrews arrives with many a question, Clemens supports
Ripley and explains that there could have been a contagent aboard the ship and all
bodies need to be cremated (except Ripley’s of course!).

1411. So Andrews does a small funeral ceremony and says a few words as does Dillon,--------------------0
who appears to be the spiritual leader of the prison. While all this is going on the dog
seems to be acting very weird. In fact, so weird that an alien pops out of it.
When it does so, Ripley gets a nosebleed (Coincidence? I don’t think so!).

1412. Ripley gets a haircut in order to prevent lice from getting to anyone.--------------------------2
This is the $1 million haircut which Sigourney demanded for shaving her head. Hey,
I’d shave my head for less than that! Ripley with her new cut then joins the men
for a spot of lunch. She thanks Dillon for his kind words. He responds with “I’m a
murderer and rapist of women” (although not necessarily in that order! :) He then
explains to her their faith in their god.

1413. Clemens meets up with Ripley and further explains the prisoner’s religion,--------------------------0
and then the effort by the 25 or so to keep the prison open after it was due to close –
this means some of the people still there would have completed their terms (like Clemens).
He attempts to find out her reasons on doing the autopsy and she instead gets him to
go to bed with her.

1414. A prisoner scraping a shaft finds some skin on the floor, then a hole and then--------------------------0
the alien inside it. He is attacked by the creature but lucky for him he and the creature
are mutilated when they fall into the giant moving fan.

1415. Ripley does sleep with Clemens but he wants an answer anyway to his questions.--------------------------0
Ripley talks of a dream.

1416. Clemens is then called to the scene of the crime mentioned above and finds--------------------------0
the same hole, but also with the markings similar to Ripley’s ship.

1417. Ripley goes back to her ship and finds the notorious “black box” (which we and--------------------------0
the FAA always think will solve our problems – you know if they built the rest of
the plan out of the same materials as the box, wouldn’t deaths be drastically
reduced?). Clemens then stops by during this and tells Ripley of the burns.

1418. Clemens meets with Andrews and is told by Andrews that Ripley is very important.--------------------------1
Andrews threatens Clemens with blackmail if Clemens doesn’t spill all he knows about Ripley.

1419. Ripley is now off to the trash heap and finds the head of her android from--------------------------0
Aliens, Bishop. But the prisoners have begun to decide their vow of celibacy isn’t
important as some good ole fashioned heterosexual sex. But Dillon is her savior
and decides to re-explain their faith to god to them, via a pipe.

1420. Golic, Boggs, and Raines (all prisoners) are investigating the shafts--------------------------2
and are lighting candles to illuminate which way is back. But a mysterious
breeze passes through, and behold but an alien creature appears. Golic is
the only one to escape, but not before he decides to wear some of his buddies’
blood over his body. Nice tux!

1421. Ripley hooks what is left of Bishop up to the box. She finds out through him--------------------------0
that there was a fire and indeed an alien was aboard the pod that crash landed on the
planet. Then Bishop reminds Ripley that the company knows all and can monitor
his words so he permanently shuts Bishop down.

1422. Golic ends up in the infirmary but no one, including Ripley, can get the guy--------------------------0
to say anything useful.

1423. Ripley and Andrews discuss the alien creature and the prison. Despite being--------------------------0
maximum security, no weapons are on the planet and there is no way out (Could it be time
for MacGyver?). Ripley is then banished to the infirmary.

1424. Ripley and Clemens chat but Ripley is still obstinate regarding info to Clemens--------------------------0
(hey, can’t we talk after sex!) and Ripley begins to feel ill. Clemens is then
asked about his presence in prison, and he gladly pours forth his life story
(Hannibal Lector is rolling in his grave over the lack of “quid pro quo.”). Seems Clemens
was a good doctor and had a tinge too much to drink between shifts and that cost 7 people
their lives. Oops! After serving time, he began to love the rascals he was shacked up
with and stayed on as a quasi-doctor.

1425. Just then the alien attacks Clemens and puts poor Clemens down for the count--------------------------2
(can you sat Peter McNeeley?) and then visits Ripley. The creature’s mouth is oh so
close to Ripley but won’t kill her. Then it vanishes. Ripley composes herself
and runs off to the mess hall to warn the others. But the Alien has made it first to the
mess hall and snags Andrews (this ain’t Grenada you know).

1426. Prisoners gather for a meeting with Ripley where she lays our the history of the--------------------------0
alien creature and her plan (let’s see she has sex with Clemens and won’t tell him,
but when 20+ guys want to know, she explains without some much as even some foreplay!).

1427. Ripley and Mr. Aaron (2nd in charge, also known as “85” for his IQ) discuss--------------------------0
their plan. They decide to use an empty toxic waste dump as their trap.

1428. They find a flammable liquid and then prepare to rub it all over in order--------------------------0
to set it ablaze and force the monster where they want it. Dillon and Ripley chat as
work begins. (Day's never finished... master's got me working, someday master set
me free!)

1429. One prisoner is enjoying his drag when the alien appears. Just like that--------------------------0
his cigarette falls (via slow motion) and then the liquid is ablaze. Many men
catch on fire and die. Seems the alien is ahead of them on their plan.

1430. The aftermath of the inferno where they all argue and Dillon wants all those--------------------------0
alive to have another meeting (You’d think with all the meetings this would be some
sidebar with Lance Ito).

1431. Ripley wants a body scan done on herself in the craft and 85 helps her out.--------------------------0
That’s when after running the program, she finds the alien creature has a baby inside her.
(talk about non-consensual sex)

1432. 85 and Ripley chat about home base, and Ripley wants to kill Alien. 85 simply--------------------------0
wants to get off the planet. He wants to save his own ass.

1433. Ripley has had enough death at this point and goes in search of the alien--------------------------0
herself. 85 receives message from the Medivac team, who is coming to rescue them all.

1434. Ripley finds the Alien but does nothing.----------------------------------------------------------------0

1435. Ripley finds Dillon and tells him the truth (still everyone but Clemens--------------------------1
gets her to talk and no one else gave her sex – what does a man have to do to get some
conversation, eh?) . She wants him to kill her (since he is good
at taking female lives) but he refuses saying he hates to be beat and won’t stop until the
Alien is dead and he needs her to do that.

1436. Dillon gets yet another meeting together (this has gotta be a damn Jimmy Hoffa--------------------------0
union with all the meetings) and talks of plan B. They all argue but finally Ripley
convinces them this will work since she’ll be the bait and all they have to do is
cut off all possible paths except those leading to the hot lead container).

1437. Ripley prepares the lead container as Dillon continues his diatribe to her.--------------------------0

1438. Two prisoners talk of the plan, and then while is looking through the mirror--------------------------0
at his pretty face, a door doesn’t work. Then the chase is on. Screaming is rampant,
and the alien isn’t stopping for a cup of java.

1439. Medivac arrive as Alien is now bolting through doors to reach the few prisoners--------------------------0
posing as bait.

1440. As one prisoner continues his escape, 2 others run into each other and then--------------------------0
discuss the idea of running with scissors. Mom tells you to point them downwards
so they don’t hurt anyone.

1441. Dillon goes to check on his boys as another prisoner is killed. Ripley convinces--------------------------0
the lead control guy that now isn’t the time to panic. (oh, and there is a better time
to do so?)

1442. Dillon finds the alien and then runs for his life.--------------------------------------------------------0

1443. Alien is chased right where it needs to be but escapes. Ripley then tries--------------------------0
to get it back in the chamber.

1444. Medivac arrives with 85 as their warm and cordial host. Ripley whacks the alien--------------------------0
with some electrical cord and forces it into the chamber. But it goes in only after
Dillon threatens Ripley’s life (Since Ripley is carrying the love child,
the alien wants Ripley living).

1445. Medivac is now into the mess hall as Dillon tells Ripley to get out and he’ll--------------------------0
take the alien on. And they immediately tie up but a quick sleeper move and Dillon
won’t have a chance. Via way of submission, winner is alien.

1446. Lead is poured as Ripley gets out safely but Alien escapes. Yet Ripley--------------------------0
is still a step ahead as the Medivac teams protests, she pours water on the creature
to melt it.

1447. Company now turns their attention to her and wants her and her baby for--------------------------0
themselves. Bishop is back (now as himself and not an android which he supposedly created
out of his own image – like God, eh?) but he is having problems convincing her
to give up.

1448. 85 is finally a convert to Ripley’s cause and whacks Bishop with a pipe.--------------------------1
Bishop gives up the truth and Ripley decides she enjoys some Lipton tea – she plunges
backwards into the lead. As she does so, an alien baby pops out of her, but she
makes a great catch.

1449. Well with the excitement over, they all leave the planet as the teams leaves.--------------------------0
THE END.
