The facehugger is a parasitoid; its only purpose is to make contact with the host. Facehuggers are often 20-something nerds that have only recently left their mother's basement (if ever). Upon making contact, the facehuger suffocates the life out of a conversation and forces its ideas upon the unsuspecting host. Attempts to remove facehuggers generally prove fatal, as the parasite will respond by tightening its grip.
