Show plot details

Bottom line

The engineer attacks Weyland's group, rips off David's head and launches the ship towards Earth. After ramming the Prometheus, he pursues Shaw. The trilobite immobilizes him; Deacon later emerges from his body.

Dossier boundaries

"Prometheus", 2093. "The Last" is a shorthand designation for this survivor, not the entire species. The extended conversation with David exists separately in deleted scenes. This is not the pilot of LV-426. Sources: movies, deleted scenes and Alien: Isolation; comics and other games are not included.
