In fact, she finally gives the game away about her sapience and vocal abilities when, overhearing some human scientists wondering why she didn't eat the fruit she'd reached, she can't resist informing them of this fact.

After his experience being forced to write this sequel after Beneath (which was written with as final a Downer Ending as could be done), screenwriter Paul Dehn wrote the ending of Escape as both a link to the future storyarc and with enough wiggle room to squeeze in another movie if the studio wanted it.
