David's Four Minutes

David has almost 4 minutes of screen time being the only one alert while travelling to the moon. We see just a few bits of time within 2 plus light tears of travel. We really don't know how much actual time is transpiring. While watching this on screen I great a great sense of the power he must feel being responsible for the mission and crew and how alone iot was. He has been watching his movie, making his appearence more O'Toole like but more importantly absorbing the ideas and themes from the LoA movie. All of this plus reading dreams, learning languages that he must know will be useful and just letting his robotic mind generate questions about power, godlike power feeding his budding ego. It seems to me this was RS telling us who will survive this mission and who was going to be a cenbtral charactor in the next installment of the Prometheus story.
