The Arrival

Impact in 3... 2... 1...

The Reds finally get their plans from Lopez, which prove to be less than helpful. Meanwhile, Church continues to be unimpressed with Doc's diagnosis.

This episode has examples of:

  • Cliffhanger: O'Malley leaves Doc, Tucker has his baby, and a spaceship lands on Donut.
  • Comically Missing the Point: When Doc realizes that Tucker is about to have his baby, he asks Caboose to boil some water. Caboose asks, "How can you think of soup at a time like this?"
  • Death from Above: The episode- and season -ends with a spaceship suddenly dropping down on Donut out of the blue.
  • Now You Tell Me: Andy reveals that Elites can infect people with parasitic embryo, which is likely how Tucker became "Pregnant". Church, outraged, demands why he wasn't told sooner.
  • Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Red Team using their radios to contact Command gives O'Malley the opportunity to leave Doc. As the following season shows, this will have major repercussions.

Tucker's Pregnant

After a nasty encounter with an alien, Tucker is parasitically impregnanted and later gives birth offscreen, much to the denial and disbelief of Church. Said baby, later named Junior, becomes an integral part of an alien prophecy and shows up at various point.

How well does it match the trope?
