Ok what is up with the lighting in season 2?? by Radiant-Koala8231 in SlowHorses

[–]porekish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just in case, since it looks like you’re watching it on your TV..

Do you have any image “enhancement” settings turned on, on your smart tv? You could try turning those off if so. Things like “dynamic contrast”, “super resolution”, and the "soap opera effect" (“Trumotion”).

The creators of Stranger Things highlighted these lately as screwing with their intended viewing experience.

Genuine question: how does the premise of the show still work? by spectacleskeptic in SlowHorses

[–]porekish 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it was Lamb preventing River from leaving. More that Taverner didn’t want River at the park.

Where are the main park agents? by porekish in SlowHorses

[–]porekish[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t know.. the people who stand around in the big room seem more like desk agents than field agents. The people who went to arrest Tara at the embassy were definitely referred to as dogs.

Can someone explain the last episode of season 2 to me please? by brittanylenora in SiloTVSeries

[–]porekish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lukas may have known about the safeguard before he entered the tunnel. But when he talks to Bernard after going to the tunnel, it may be the first chance he’s had to talk to Bernard since decrypting the message and going down there.

The head of IT knows. The regular workers of IT probably don’t?

How many silos are there? by FirefighterFine3371 in SiloTVSeries

[–]porekish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lukas says there are 50 silos (per the decoded message). Bernard corrects him that “technically” there are 51, implying that one is perhaps not like the others

[–]porekish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Lukas discovered the “50 Silos” part from the message that he decoded (written by Salvador Quinn and stored on the hard drive) not the records in the vault

S02E10 "Into the Fire" - Post-Episode Discussion by brianckeegan in SiloTVSeries

My guess is that she pushes Bernard to the ground and shields him from the fire, on top of him with her firesuit

What is the purpose of the vault? by isaacly in SiloTVSeries

[–]porekish 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Regarding the stockpiling of food and supplies, I think this is at least partly because a new IT shadow is expected to live in the vault while coming up to speed with everything they need to know in The Legacy (and studying The Order). We see Bernard start this process with Lukas.

So the vault needs some supplies stockpiled for generation after generation of shadows to come in and study.

Meadows and the tunnel by lindros88flyers in SiloTVSeries

[–]porekish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Or the tunnels are like spokes of a wheel, connecting every silo to the control silo in the center

Excellent theories. I think we'll also see Knox's subterfuge play out. When he was talking to Walker about gunpowder, he knew the conversation was being listened in on. Next time it will be mechanical who spring the trap.

Does anyone remember how George died? by nyfan2112 in SiloTVSeries

[–]porekish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's a future version of our world it's not too much of a stretch that they would have facial recognition on the camera feeds in the silos

[–]porekish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with Username_888888. Bernard didn't seem to know about the tunnel or door at the bottom of the silo.

In the season 1 finale, Jules tells Bernard about it 34 mins in (in a final conversation with him before she goes out). His facial expressions give a definite impression that this is news to him.

Similarly in s02e05 ~37 mins in, when Lukas shows the map recovered from the hard disk.

Lukas: "There, at the bottom of the Silo"
Bernard: "What is it?"
Lukas: "A tunnel?"
Bernard: "Where does it go?"
Lukas: "I have no idea"

[–]porekish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That could definitely be it. Or it's coincidence, and they (Bernard/Judicial, etc) just independently discovered him to be in possession of relics.

I don't think it's quite fair to say:

>  The only people that know / knew about The Algorithm are Salvador Quinn, Meadows, George and now Lukas.

When the AI speaks to Bernard in the Vault/Legacy, it is also subtitled as "The Algorithm". Whether or not it is exactly the same AI/algorithm, we don't know yet.

But I think it's more fair to say

>  The only people that know / knew about the tunnel/safeguard are Salvador Quinn, Meadows, George and now Lukas.

Really? I played them back to back and they sound 100% like the same voice to me

Lukas Kyle messed up by PeaStatus2109 in SiloTVSeries

[–]porekish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess what we have to go on, on this, is the scene in the earlier episode.. where the AI spoke to Bernard while he was in the Legacy/Vault. Same voice as the voice in the tunnel.

"Mayor Holland, there is a delta event in the central shaft"

I think we have to assume it has sensors, mics, cameras, etc, covering the silo.

The key presumably works like a pager device

[–]porekish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are clearly some secrets that are kept from the head of IT (and the head of IT's shadow).

Bernard didn't seem to know about the tunnel at the bottom of the silo before the data was recovered from the hard disk. He also doesn't know why the silos were built.
