Michael Bishop is a distant descendant of Charles Bishop Weyland, founder of Weyland Industries. In 2179 Michael Bishop was employed as a synthetic component designer and engineer for the Weyland-Yutani corporation and was dispatched to Fiorina 161 to retrieve Ellen Ripley from the Fiorina 161 Correctional Unit.
[edit] Retrieval Mission and Failure
He arrived after the Dog Alien was destroyed by Ripley. He tried to convince the Lieutenant to come with him and have his team of doctors remove the Queen Alien gestating in her. Bishop was assaulted by Francis Aaron with a wrench and nearly had his ear ripped off. The security detail with him shot and killed Aaron for the incident. Michael then shouted that he wasn't a droid. Michael then let his cover slip telling Ripley he must have the creature and told her think of all they could learn from it. Ripley refused to go with Bishop and commited suicide by gracefully falling into the molten lead of the foundry, Michael shouted and protested Ripley's decision and they fell on deaf ears. He left with the team and the last survivor of the incident, prisoner Robert Morse
