Actually, it is. As the nurse says to Ripley after the wakes up (in
her dream) in reply to a "where am I?", "you're at Gateway, been here
a coupla days". At least, that's MY recollection.

Does she???

I remember Rip saying she didn't remember the place....

Script says...

RIPLEY
How long have I been on
Gateway station?

MED-TECH
Just a couple of days. Do you
feel up to a visitor?



But that isn't what's actually *said* in the movie....

Still... Looks like The Fuzz is right !
