Anne Sampas' offspring was generated after the astronaut, unknowingly infected with the alien DNA after returning from Mars, had sex with her husband, Harry. Instead of becoming a hybrid like co-crew member Patrick Ross, Anne became a host to a hostile lifeform.
In the series[]
Species II[]
After returning from Mars, Patrick accidentally brought a sample of alien DNA onto his ship. Revived from dormancy, the symbiote-like organism broke out of containment and infected Patrick, Dennis and Anne. While it successfully managed to merge with Patrick and succumbed to Dennis' genetic flaws, the symbiote made itself latent inside Anne.
On Earth, she reunited with her husband, Harry. After having sex, the couple was horrified by Anne's sudden rapid pregnancy. The alien lifeform burst out of her and attacked Harry. Laura and Preston could not arrive before the alien killed Harry. Laura gassed the creature, apparently killing it and Anne in the process.
While under autopsy, the creature (or its remains or a secondary offspring) emerged from Anne's mouth, quickly killed by Laura's co-medical examiner with a surgical saw.
Trivia[]
- Anne's offspring is similar to the species in its pure form.
- The storyboard for Anne's demise featured a different sequence: the creature inside her would manifest as several tentacles coming from her nose, mouth and under her skin (closer to the beginning of the cocooning stage). The final sequence has the creature bursting out of her through accelerated gestation.
