3* When Jones visits Sixpack in the infirmary [[spoiler: we know Sixpack is dead, but Jones doesn't]], Sixpack "moves" under his blanket. Jones tells him to get some rest and leaves. Cue OhCrap for the audience.
4* How about when [[spoiler: the bodies of the dead Bowman and Sixpack fuse together on the infirmary bed]]? That's the stuff that would give even an EldritchAbomination nightmares.
5* [[spoiler:[=DeJesus=]]], who has been attacked by the creature, begging Jones for help. The look on Jones' face clearly shows that he knows there's absolutely no way he can be helped.
6* [[spoiler:Cobb]] finally being taken over by the infection, which provides the page image. Also, right after this, he lowers his hand towards [[spoiler: Doc's face]] as the other man struggles to keep it away. After the cut away, we catch up with [[spoiler: Doc]] a few scenes later, alone and see his stomach starting to twist and expand, confirmation that he was unable to keep [[spoiler: Cobb]] at bay, and is now infected himself. [[spoiler: Doc]] almost seems to shed a tear at what's happening to him. Seeing what it's doing to him further adds to the nightmare fuel.
7* Jones sees [[spoiler: Doc's]] face as part of a abomination of fused crew members and mentions that he thought he saw him. He's no longer [[spoiler: Doc]] however, yet the expression seems to confirm he's still in there, and in agony.
8* Confirmed later right before [[spoiler: Beck]] abandons the station. We see the face of [[spoiler:[=DeJesus=]]] who begs [[spoiler: Beck]] to kill him, proving that even after you're fused with the creature, a part of you is still there.
