Pushed to encapsulate the essence of Pluribus in a sentence or two, you're likely to evoke classic sci-fi horror stories such as Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Episode one certainly played with some of the familiar terrors you'd expect to see in an alien takeover, even if it's clear that creator Vince Gilligan is keen to push past obvious tropes in search of something different, something more alien, if you will. But the latest episode – and it's associated cameo – proves Pluribus is anything but conventional.
Full spoilers for episode 6 of Pluribus follow.
