The camera pans around through empty, cavernous corridors of the ship. A few hours later, Kane's body, in white mummy wrappings, is jettisoned from the spacecraft from the inner hatch. When he flips the switch, the white object is propelled from the ship and flips end over end into the dark void of space. A serious search for the Alien begins. And Parker has found a heavy rope netting.
Channels are open on all decks.
Deep in the hold of the ship which is darkened because of a failed lighting system, Ripley, Parker, and Brett creep along cautiously. After some mechanical tweaks to the circuits, Parker restores the lights. When the device emits an intermittent sound registering an unknown object beyond the doorway of a locker, they nervously slide the door open with the rope net readied to capture it. The stowaway cat runs by them and evades their awkward efforts. Parker suggests bagging it so that it won't be picked up again on their tracker.
