Reply to comment by Dispositionpsn in The Thing (1982) -- the scene with MaReady checking on Blair in the cabin by darthvirgin

The Thing is in the shack because it has a lair underneath (which McReady later finds) where it has been collecting the parts it’s been taking and is building a ship.

Pretty sure it dug the pit while being left ignored in the shack. Unobserved, it could mutate out any feature that would be effective at excavation or escape to go gather parts.
