Silo Recap: Breakdown, It’s All Right

It would be more satisfying to watch Bernard’s plan go horribly wrong if it didn’t mean the silo would break out into utter chaos.

But a couple of signs that maybe — just maybe — Bernard doesn’t have a road map to where this journey ends come after the rested and fed Mechanical militias acquire weapons and armor from Knox’s foundry friend and begin their dual march to the barricade. Finally, Billings sends everyone out of the room and takes a threatening posture with Patrick, who reluctantly says what he knows: that before Juliette went out, she briefly switched all the silo’s view screens to show the video of the lush green outside. • I don’t want to say that “the Syndrome” is a load of bull crap, but I do find it suspicious that when Sheriff Billings stops taking his special herbs and suffers no apparent physical consequences, his wife suggests it’s because he’s “changed.” I’m not sure “becoming a take-charge kind of guy” has that much effect on non-imaginary afflictions.
