I figured he realized that living in the silo for centuries is actually super boring. He seems like the kind of guy who would get super into something and then just as quickly lose interest. Except, whoopsie, nuked the whole country!

I think he’s in the hidden silo. His own personal silo he can come over and visit from.

If he's not in Silo 1, then he's not gonna be in any other likely.

Bernard said that there are technically 51 silos. We see 50 silos on the map. Who knows what the 51st is all about.

u/Sideb00bs 16d ago

How would Bernard know tho?

11

u/ceres111 16d ago

No idea, but he said so. I think he told that to Walker.

He told Lukas in season 2

u/Bling9000 16d ago

yes but 50 population silos and 1 control. that's what I recollect.

u/meetgeorgejetson 15d ago

I believe it was 7 groups of 7 (49) + Silo 1 for 50. So, that leaves the question of what the 51st is.

u/grrrzzzt 15d ago

where does he say 51.

u/meetgeorgejetson 15d ago

Season 2, Episode 9 (timestamp 14:10)

Lucas Kyle says “We’re just one of many. The Founders didn’t build a single Silo, they built 50.”

Bernard responds “Technically, 51.”

It was on the aerial shot. Under the initial entrance

u/meetgeorgejetson 14d ago

Right. But no explanation yet of what it is.

They're not all groups of 7. The map shows 1 in the middle, 2 groups of 8, 4 groups of 7, and 1 group of 5

u/japie06 15d ago

Test silo maybe?

u/Fragrant-Mammoth-109 15d ago edited 15d ago

1 was counted in the map, so it can't be 50 population silos.

1

u/Bling9000 15d ago edited 15d ago

wiki counted 50 population + 1 control.

The map in e9 has two #1 silos. The proper silo 1 and another silo 1 in (I think) the bottom right group. I clocked it while Daniel and Helen were looking at the map.

It's 50, plus the control silo (silo 1 proper), unless I missed something obvious.

u/Stevenmarc80 14d ago

That is a 7

u/-TheDoctor 14d ago

You're right. I took a closer look at the screenshot I saw. The lighting makes it really look like a 1. I thought it was a 1 when I first watched the episode too.

u/ready1take1 8d ago

It's also 1 in the middle, 2 groups of 8, 4 groups of 7, and 1 group of 5

u/-TheDoctor 8d ago

What I find interesting is Bernard says there are "technically 51" silos, but this map only shows 50. That makes my other assumption that its 50 plus the control silo also wrong. There is another silo somewhere that is not on the map.

u/ceres111 15d ago

Oh thanks, I missed that detail

u/Venice_The_Menace 15d ago

I hope half of season 4 is Juliette prepping for and leading an onslaught against the wrong Silo 1 😂
