Alien: Earth – Episode 6: ‘The Fly'”

In this chilling episode titled ‘The Fly’, we don’t only witness another harrowing encounter between our audience and the alien hybrids. It also delves into the depths of despair and fear, demonstrating how such emotions can push one of the Lost Boys to their limit. The climax unveils a shocking betrayal by someone once trusted within Prodigy’s circle, paving the way for Prodigy’s impending demise.

Why does Slightly let Arthur die in Alien: Earth Episode 6?

Slightly lets Arthur die in Alien: Earth Episode 6 because of fear and coercion.

Morrow endangered Slightly’s human family, putting him in a difficult position where he either had to hand over a live human or risk losing his loved ones. However, when Slightly couldn’t trap Joe, he adjusted his plan and focused on Arthur instead. When Arthur went to the lab to check on Tootles who was injured by alien creatures resembling flies, Slightly trapped him inside, securing the facehugger its host.

Moving Arthur’s unresponsive form, now hosting a Xenomorph embryo, along an air duct partially met Morrow’s request. This harsh action underscored just how far Morrow’s control reaches within the hybrids and served as a grim reminder of how exposed Prodigy’s inner circle currently is to such influence.

The deception doesn’t stop with Slightly. Kirsh, Prodigy’s synthetic assistant, observes the entire plot unfold yet decides not to alert Boy Kavalier about it. For longtime Alien fans, this lack of warning is a glaring warning sign. Synthetics rarely act without concealed purposes, and Kirsh’s choice to stay silent suggests larger plans that could potentially destabilize both Prodigy and Morrow. At the moment, his reasons are unknown, but his silence contributes to an already strained alliance by raising tension.

Arthur’s demise strikes Prodigy as a destructive blow. Wendy struggles with her deepening connection to the Xenomorph and her suspicion towards Dame Sylvia, who manipulated Nibs’ memories. Joe firmly decides on rescuing Marcy from Neverland Island. Dame Sylvia, heartbroken over Arthur’s passing, could eventually decide to leave the company for good.
