Question about the spoon kid


Sorry if this has been asked before, but why didn't the bugs ever attack him? Just because he could replicate their sound with the spoons?

That's the only thing I could figure...

I think they could sense he was impaired (Kind of like how Eve in Species could detect impairments in her possible mates).

I'm sure that the fact the kid could replicate their sounds,thus talking to them helped too.

That makes sense.

Thanks for the reply.

...no it doesn't...

It may have been like it was with Sorvina's character, he was being kept alive as a little, fresh snack for later.
