It's Alien singular and not Aliens? That's how I interpreted it
Same.
The sequel was Aliens, so I would say assuming the first one was singular makes sense to me.
The original movie had only one fully grown xenomorph, so in that regard you could argue that it’s 1. But what about all the other eggs seen in the background? Apparently they don’t count.
An egg isn't a chicken.
