I've been pondering this same scene in my head, what if Cooper only wakes up at the end of episode 18, as a sort of parallel with the end of season 2? That'll piss off a lot of people. Holy shit indeed, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. I have never seen anything like it and I love it. Another theory points out that maybe Phillip Gerard put them there. He went to the bathroom in the sheriff's station in Season 2. I didn't recognize him at all. It's not the sort of job you would have expected to find Mike doing. But then again, Bobby is a cop. It seems to me that androids in the Alien universe are obsessed with the Xenomorph. David is particularly obsessed with perfection, he admires the most perfect of human creation, and that's why he admires Wagner, Byron, Michelangelo. So, in my opinion, he won't stop his quest for the perfect organism, no matter the cost. Some fan theory even speculates that David is probably the creator of the Queen. That's quite an interesting question. I don't think the aliens change the future, they knew that saving them would result in Abbott's death. The aliens are able to see the future precisely because they won't change it. Bette Davis stated that it was mostly her idea. She said that she imagined Baby Jane "as someone who would never wash her face, just put on another layer of makeup". That line made me laugh so hard. I'm glad I'm not the only one excited about this. The movie did fail to explain that the ability to see the future is incompatible with free will. You can see the future, precisely because you won't change it. Free will is meaningful for humans because we think in a sequential way. The aliens think in a simultaneous way, they enact the future, they don't change it.
