After seven full weeks, Noah Hawley’s Alien: Earth is coming to a close, and with the release of the trailer for its final episode, the end is officially upon us. The trailer for the finale, titled “The Real Monsters,” packs a lot of stuff into a thirty-second runtime, all of which promises to see the full extent of the series’ running themes, characters, and narratives brought to a dramatic conclusion. The prior episode, “Emergence,” leaves viewers on a cliffhanger ending, in which Alex’s attempt to smuggle himself, Wendy, and Nibs is thwarted by his old Marine colleagues. Furthermore, as things escalate and Nibs proceeds to kill several of those Marines, Alex uses an electro-pulse rifle on her, seemingly decommissioning her as a result. Considering that this is the trailer for the final episode of Alien: Earth and that the show itself is set a mere few years before the events of that first film, this is an extremely fitting way to bring the whole thing full circle.
