[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] [QUOTE]I'm not sure but if you watch Aliens you might notice that Bishop isning in the waking up scene in they cryo-room and that IIRC he doesn't show up until the mess hall scene.[/QUOTE]Yes he is. He walks by Apone along with everyone else, dressed in skivvies as they were. He was there, probably to better accent Ripley's justified hatred of androids. After all, they can be anywhere. The bigger quesiton is how he got like he was by the next movie - they basically dumped him into a cryotube at the end, but by the end of the film he was in a plastic bag in a corner of the pod. As for the elapsed time, I'm willing to bet that not THAT much time passed after A2. The [i]Patna[/i] (name from the A3 novelisation) could have been searching for the [i]Sulaco[/i] following the accident that ejected the pods, or could have been rushing out to meet her halfway... I was under the impression that they set the ship just to return to Earth, and were I a W-Y rep I'd not rely on a rogue like Ripley to take care of it all. Also, we don't REALLY know how fast the ships in thie universe go... Regardless of the transit time, fifteen people in cryo still use less air, food and power than fifteen people walking around. Given the economically-minded Company and the apparent reliability of the cryonics process, I don't see why the travel time between Earth and Fury161 can't be a matter of days anyway... It *is* an older installation, and thus could easily be close enough to Earth to warrant the relatively quick arrival of the [i]Patna[/i]. Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
