LatestHarry faces one final threat, and one that forces him to use more than just his alien strength.

As he does, he begins to wrestle with the moral dilemma of his mission and asking the big life questions like: “Are human beings worth saving?” and “Why do they fold their pizza before eating it?”

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Alan Tudyk based Harry's movement on octopuses and newborn deer — creatures that haven't figured out their bodies yet. The result is somehow both threatening and deeply pathetic.
The show's 'are humans worth saving' arc mirrors Tudyk's own Firefly trajectory: playing outsiders who slowly, reluctantly, become crew. Harry's arc is basically 'what if Wash became a doctor and hated everyone slightly more.'
