    Is the part where she called off her minions when Ripley was threatening to torch her eggs the only time in the franchise where a xeno has been shown to be able to be reasoned with?

      I think so.

      I think you see some communication in Alien Covenant with the synthetic guy. It’s been a while and I had a few drinks before watching that one.

      They’re kind of mixed. In Aliens the queen did parlay in a way to save her eggs, but in other movies like AvP or Alien Romulus they sacrifice each other to use their acid blood as a tool.

      So it seems situational.
