    The codes on the chalkboard are 6 digits, but when he types in the code at the vault, it beeps 4 times. you have to assume the code is 4 digits low and what's on the chalkboard is not related to the vault

      I think the first two digits are the same in all the numbers on the board. The last 4 digits were sequential resembling a year as in 2XXX. It could be the number of a year.

      I assumed they were combinations as some of the sets of 3 were circled, but yes - there are too many numbers and Solo didn't react when Juliette saw them.
      Maybe a red herring. Numbers were from around 551800 to 552894.

    So first of all, solo shared his story of growing up and going to school in silo 17 mentioning classmates. And it is apparent that solo's been there for many years. Plus he is no genius. So you can only conclude that solo is an original silo 17 occupant that was most likely a child left behind.

    • @Q-Dads

      That's the story he shared which he could have easily got from who he killed to gain entry into the silo. Or it could be just as easily made up.

    The theory doesn't hold much water IMO. The severe weather could cause faster decay. He knows way too much about silo 17 to not be from there. We can presume that the vault contains all the informaton about the outside world, otherwise how would Meadows know about planets and stars? Piano lessosn from a VR headset isn't far fetched now, Why would they should people revolting and going outside at the start of the season?His behavor is child-like which could mean he grew up watching catroons and kid stuff on vault screens without an adult to be his role model. I could go on and on about why this theory is super far fetched but these are just off the top of my head.

      But with his shifty behaviour, unwillingness to divulge information and also (even though you disagree) the decay of bodies.
      Don't get me wrong, I could be completely overthinking this and he could have grown up there as a young man (20-30 years ago) but it's worth a shot at a plausible theory 🤣

      the weather outside is artificially designed by people in silo 1 before they set the nukes off, theres a big bubble in a way around the area (outside the bubble is greenery but people dont know that until the drones are sent out which isnt in the tvshow yet) and the dust storms are nano bots killing the people outside and the toxic too. Silo 1 controls all the silo's and also the silo's were originally designed to be a cad facility for nuclear waste but the creator was tricked and cryo frozen in silo 1 and then the cadfac was made into the silo's. Every silo is the exact same, has staircases because thats how they keep population in control by gassing the staircase so it goes down all levels. Silo 1 does not have staircase it has a elevator so people cant gas it, it would take much longer. Could go on but it would ruin everything :) Read the book its intresting :)

      Also, the state of the bodies outside could be explained the mysterious "dust", which Solo mentioned. Since we don't know yet what the dust is, it not only could have killed the people suddenly, but also it could have caused the bodies to decompose faster, e.g. within weeks or months instead of decades or centuries.

    @117Derek Місяць тому +2

    I also have NOT read any of the books, so my theories are based on the episodes.
    I can accept your Solo is from Another Silo theory--broadly. I'm not sure if all of the details are what you're suggesting. But, yes: Solo could be from another silo. However, I believe this theory relies on Solo still having been in the Silo 17 vault, alone, for many, many years. Because he is obviously experiencing major mental decline--and that would have happened to him in Silo 17, after he was in the vault. More: his mental decline could be his mind's way of suppressing a painful memory--like killing Russell (and others?).
    Another hint about Solo's true character is he apparently does NOT know about/how to use the silo-to-silo communication system, that Bernard's actions (looking at the illuminating key) suggests exists. If Solo were either a Real IT Shadow, or spent extended time with Russell in the Vault, he would have learned of the communication system.
    Bottom Line, I think Solo will turn out to be both a source of information for Juliette, if he allows her inside the vault where all the secrets are kept; and, he will also be a danger to her--because he's definitely capable of violence.

    • @Q-Dads
      @Q-Dads  Місяць тому +1

      Absolutely, I think Solo has spent many years in silo 17 and more importantly in the vault to protect himself from others (those two outside the vault). We have to remember that we don't actually know what a vault is capable of and what other silos are communicating.
      Yeah, he is a danger but also the potential saviour

  • @leetod6659
    @leetod6659 Місяць тому

    First of all, 1:22 the people who went outside not because there was a rebellion and people wanted to flee, it was because the rebellion had won, they took over control of the silo, then they were, 'Okay, let’s go out then.' In fact, if you look closer, some bodies were piled up at the gate and heading inwards-some of these people were trying to get back in.
    1:28 Dead bodies don’t take that long to decay, they turn to bones really, really quickly, and even if they were there outside that long, it still isn’t proof that Solo was from outside. Btw if he was an outsider, how did he get in? The bodies at the gate means that people who were trying to get back to the silo couldn't do it or they died before they could, which means the gate was closed, if it wasn't, whatever toxic stuff that was outside should have gotten in, then Juliette should've died when she took off the suit. So how did Solo get in (the fact that Juliette could get in was purely for the plot in my opinion), and how did he get the key code to the vault, when people were all dead long before his arrival? (I'll talk about the blackboard later)
    He had those knowledge because there was a secret chamber inside the vault containing the Before Days knowledge, as far as I know, mostly books. 3:42 The piano theory doesn't contribute to the 'Solo was from outside' idea, he could've been taught in the same silo. Solo was able to play piano probably because he learned a little bit before the rebellion; when the rebellion happened, he was young but not a child, so he could have had some experience. In fact just a couple of years since he started to live in the vault, his beard had already gone out of control.
    4:28,(your main clue) The numbers on the board were six digits, and the key code to the vault was a four-digit code; you can hear it in the episode, four beeps. Even if the code is a six-digit code, the numbers on the board start with 5. Here is the fact about that door(not a spoiler): three wrong tries in a roll, the door is locked, and you have to try it the next day, which means just over 10000 tries in 10 years. By the time anyone gets to the number on the board, imagine how old they’ll have to be, even if someone can live for that long, I don't think they can remain sane for that long, having to do this for that long time.

    Solo could have been from 17 for all your theories to work. He could have been a descendant of survivors that didn't go out. I think he lived on that floor because passage was demolished and he was scared to cross it. If he had been from another silo who entered later, he would have had a system to cross.

    @GlasPthalocyanine 20 днів тому

    It's possible that Solo came from another silo. I don't see how he would have come alone, though. Maybe the collapse of silo 17 was an invasion.
    The character that I believe came from another silo is Judge Meadows. She seemed to have knowledge that didn't fit with the education in silo 18. She'd turned down the chance to shadow Barnard in IT. So, she hadn't seen the legacy? Another thing with Meadows is that she seemed to be wiser and more experienced than Barnard.

    • @Q-Dads

    • @GlasPthalocyanine
      @GlasPthalocyanine 19 днів тому

      ​@@Q-Dads I've just rewatched the first 4 episodes. Meadows had spent a little time in the vault. Both Meadows and Barnard were aware of someone in the vault in silo 17. One of them says "He won't leave". So they spoke to Solo? I don't think it's obvious how any other survivors in silo 17 died. Did they die of starvation? The vault seems to have it's own independent resources for the head of IT and maybe the shadow. It's interesting that Barnard reveals that he has his own suit ?? Does Solo have a suit, too? I'm wondering if Barnard or Meadows were guiding Solo through the instructions in "The Order". Presumably Solo has the same book. If Meadows was telling Solo which buttons to press to end the rebellion in silo 17, she would have been aware of how fragile his mental health was. That would account for her drinking and leaving IT.
