The second of the three to check out the Space Jockey, Lambert is pretty much the whiner in the whole movie. Scared shitless of the entire situation, she pretty much withdraws into the [[Damsel in Distress]]. She starts breaking into hysterics with the now-famous dinner scene and doesn't really do anything else until the end - well, okay, sometimes she shuts up for a few seconds. |

Highly resentful of being part of the team that checks out the Space Jockey (Kane volunteered, and Dallas said she was part of the group), and highly pissed at Ripley for trying to keep them outside the ship in quarantine after Kane got facehugger'd. |

* [[What Happened to the Mouse?|What Happened to the Cat?]] - Doesn't show up anymore after the first arc of the second movie. Ripley tells him he's staying there while she leaves for the colony with the marines, so presumably she left him with someone else while she was away (she had expected to come back, after all). |
