We are here to help. silo Season 2 ended on a major cliffhanger, with a lot to discover and understand.
The biggest question left behind silo The season was answered and not answered as well. This question is: What is behind the giant door?
We will give you a more complete answer and explanation of the mystery silo The giant door in this article. Don't worry, we'll also give you a big warning before we get into any major spoilers silo Next season.
Spoiler-free section to start.
How the silo revealed the door
Lucas Kyle (Avi Nash), IT's ever-curious new shadow, discovers the giant door. He was led to the door by following a series of codes and clues left behind by a notorious figure from the silo's past, a man named Salvador Quin.
The door is hidden deep beneath the silo, in an area where the abandoned drilling equipment that first excavated the silo has been left to rot in what appears to be an underground lake of water. No one could swim in the silo, so of the few who made it there, almost none of them bothered to explore the lake.
Lucas bets that the lake is not as deep as it appears and boldly jumps in, proving his hypothesis that it is only waist deep. He heads to the other side, where he discovers a large door, a giant door guarded by what looks like some sort of computerized guardian.
What does the door say lucas kyle
The voice speaks to Lucas and tells him that if he tells anyone what he learned there, the protection will be activated. This protection will kill everyone in his hermitage. We later learn that the deadly thing is poison.
Is there toxic gas hiding behind the door? The door seems a bit large for use only as a poison gas dispenser, and there are no giant doors in Hugh Howey's books. silo The broadcast series is based on.
At present, the exact nature of the door remains unknown. We know that the voice behind the door is listening and watching everything. If Lucas tells anyone about this secret, the poison he controls will be released, and everyone inside his silo will die.
We learn that it may be possible to stop the door guard from unleashing his deadly poison, thanks to the work of Sulu's parents (Steve Zahn) in a nearby silo. But why do these silos contain tubes full of poison, ready for distribution, at all? Why would anyone set up something like this? this The thing Season 2 of Silo doesn't answer, and that answer is more terrible than you probably imagined.
From now on, we'll be diving into spoilers silo Season 3. Don't go any further if you don't want to know.
Why The warranty exists and how to overcome it
the silo The Season 2 finale hints at where things are going when it goes back in time and shows us a meeting between a young senator and a reporter.
Those scenes in the past will become a dominant part in the next season of the show as we begin to learn the truth about who built the silos and why. The secrets to creating silos have already been revealed in books, and we'll use that source material to guide you to the secret background hidden within. Apple TV displays.
From books we know that there are 50 silos. Juliet's (Rebecca Ferguson) original silo is Silo 18. Solo's silo is Silo 17. They're all the same, except for Silo 1. Silo 1 is the control silo, and uses cryogenics to keep the founders of the Silo system alive and working shifts to manage all 50.
The poison tubes, ostensibly located behind the giant door Lucas discovered, serve two purposes.
The first goal is to control potential rebellions. If a rebellion breaks out, poison will be released to wipe out the offending silo's inhabitants.
You may have assumed that the people of Silo 17 died because they got out. If you stop and think about it, you'll realize that this doesn't make any sense. Opening the outer door would only kill the first few of them who came out, and then the rest would see these pioneers die and close the door.
What actually happened in Silo 17 was that poison was released, and the people of the silo tried to escape. They found themselves trapped between the poison rising from the depths of the silo and the toxic air outside the outer door. The result was the mass death we saw when Juliet crawled over the corpses of residents to gain entry to Silo 17.
However, eliminating rebellious silos is only a secondary goal of the poison. The true purpose of poison, as explained in Hugh Howey's books, is to execute the unworthy.
The Silo System's plan is to wait until it is safe to go out and then choose the Silo they believe is most worthy of surviving in the new world. The people of Cielo will be released from their underground city to populate the surface of the Earth. Everyone remaining in the other silos will be killed.
What is behind the large hermitage door?
What about the door? Although we know there is a poison protection system, we don't know for sure whether or not the door is just a giant cover for the poison dispenser. The poison might come from somewhere else, and if so, what's behind the giant door?
We're just guessing here, but the giant door might be a path to another silo. While there is no giant door in… Wool wrote, at some point, The residents of Silo 18 are digging a tunnel to connect their silo to a neighboring silo. It is possible that the series is planning to simply open this door rather than go to all the trouble of digging a new tunnel.
Or maybe it's actually a giant tube filled with poison.
You'll probably have to stay there silo Season 3 to find out. While you wait, go get a copy of Hugh Hui Wall's books. It's worth a read, whether you've already watched the show or not.
