My guess:
A Weyland Industries ship explores or crash-lands on LV-426, finds the crashed bio-weapon ship, and, by the end of the movie, all crew members die a violent death.
One or two of them will be infected; the android/robot on board will observe this and a hidden shell script directing him to collect information about potential weapons will activate, and he will try to take an impregnated human back to earth in a stasis chamber. However, the human will realize the danger, and die in the struggle to prevent the Alien menace spreading back to earth.
Despite this, the android will still have the information and perhaps some specimens. He will then fly back to earth alone, or transmit the information back to Weyland HQ just before dying.

Oh, and I forgot to mention, my favorite robot is Johnny-5.
That really should be a option in the poll.

It would be appreciated that when you do polls in the future that a little bit more effort is used when constructing them.

Machines don't have a gender. Also in Terminator 3 the robot had a female form for most of the time, so there is your fembot.

I always thought replicants were biological, just engineered biology. Hence J.F. Sebastian being a genetic designer, the need for Chew to work in a big warm coat in a cryogenic lab, and the discussion about recombinant therapy and mutation between Tyrell and Batty.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Hymie from the TV series Get Smart.

what do you think the primary use for "female" androids is likely to be, and how is THAT not sexist?
The same thing male robots are for. You assume that women wouldn't want to have guilt a risk free sex with a machine just like men would. You also seem to think the potential for sex would be a reason for people not to have female robots (embarrassment), which is pretty much the same reason that women had/have such a hard time getting into certain jobs.
