Part 4/10:
The show’s depiction of scientific procedures further frustrates viewers. The protocol for handling dangerous alien specimens—freezing them and storing them in secure compartments—was ignored. In even the most rudimentary biological research, strict safety measures like fully sealed containment and protective suits are non-negotiable, yet characters casually poke at alien samples as if they’re harmless.
This lax attitude toward biohazard safety echoes a broader failure to understand or respect scientific procedures, creating a disconnect for viewers who have a background or familiarity with biomedical protocols. The show's failure to properly handle this aspect diminishes the stakes and makes the narrative seem just lazy storytelling.
