One of the most famous tag lines in cinema history came from Ridley Scott’s original Alien from 1979. It went “In space, no one can hear you scream.” This tagline has been mimicked and parodied endlessly since. Yet back in the day, it did a very effective job of selling this weird horror/sci-fi hybrid movie. Now, the title of Alien: Earth’s fifth episode is “In Space, No One,” giving the show a meta twist. This episode pays homage to the original film in a massive way, as we flashback to the last days of the Weyland-Yutani science research spaceship Maginot , in almost a beat-for-beat recreation of what happened to the Nostromo in Alien.

The first episode of Alien: Earth gave us a very truncated version of the final days of the Maginot , at the very start of the episode.
