Alien: Covenant - 15 Blunders That Ruined The Film
11. "I'll Do The Fingering"
By far Covenant's most infamous and widely-mocked scene so far involves David teaching Walter how to play the flute, and as Walter readies his mouth, David tells him, "I'll do the fingering."
It's impossible to consider the scene wasn't intended to be somewhat comical, but it blatantly sticks out in a relatively serious and interesting exchange between the two androids, making it difficult to actually focus on what's going on story-wise.
One suspects that once the Internet is done with this scene, writers John Logan and Dante Harper are going to rue the day they ever thought to include this sliver of dialogue. Fassbender tried his best to make it work, though.
