Re ep10:

Well, ep10 pretty much answered all of our big questions only to leave us with new ones. The biggest is probably what the relationship between the aliens and the Strain is. The aliens encountered on Earth didn't seem to have the ships that attacked Ralph, but the ships that attacked him look a lot like Strain. It would appear that the aliens were directly connected to their ships, but humans use mimics. I'm starting to doubt that the link between a person and their mimic is due only to sympathetic brain patterns due to shared brain matter; could it be that in the same operation that takes brain cells, something of alien origin is added back?
