In the most recent episode of “Resident Alien,” called “Bye Bye Birdie,” Alan Tudyk‘s role as Harry, the alien-in-disguise, hits new levels of comedy as he deals with his feelings. When Harry’s Blue Avian lover Heather (Edi Patterson) has to leave because of something, he begs her. Because he is so sad, Asta (Sara Tomko) and D’arcy (Alice Wetterlund) step in again and try to cheer him up. They get him back to his job of saving Earth from the Gray Aliens. Asta complains, “I am so tired of playing parent to this alien child.” This shows how tired she is of always taking care of Harry.
The relationship between Harry, Asta, and D’arcy is still one of the best parts of the show. The way they interact with each other is both funny and sad, showing how the characters grow. As Harry hits rock bottom, Asta and D’arcy’s constant support and encouragement become more important than ever. This shows how close they are as friends and how strong their bond is.
