In the world of “Silo,” where secrets are currency and intrigue runs deeper than the very depths of their underground labyrinth, one character stands out as a wild card—Kennedy. It’s utterly absurd to think about letting this man in on any vital information, especially when he’s notorious for spouting conspiracy theories that, while often outrageous, manage to lure followers with their charismatic allure. Speaking of the cosmos, what does the current alignment of the stars say about Kennedy’s never-ending quest for the limelight? Could it be that a push from the planets has his ego soaring higher than the silo’s ceilings? As we delve deeper into the latest episode—acclaimed with a 4 out of 5 stars—let’s unpack the twists and turns that keep us on the edge of our seats, and perhaps reflect on how lunar influences might shape our perceptions of truth and trust in “Silo.” LEARN MORE
The idea of letting Kennedy know anything is ludicrous on Silo.
This is a man who is constantly spreading his conspiracy theories, and he’s convincing enough to get people to follow him.
He doesn’t even need to be liked, which happens all the time with leaders. All they need is to be charismatic and convincing enough, and people will end up following.

He’s also a man who doesn’t quite know how to keep his mouth shut, so the idea of him knowing about the safeguard and that Bernard is still alive just seems wild.
At the same time, poor Hank is dealing with a lot of secrets about how the people in the silo are going to die. Now, he is a man who can keep a secret, and I’m impressed.
While we all wanted to see Bernard as the villain on Silo, it was always clear he was taking orders from someone above him.
His actions have always been to protect the people of the silo, and he proves that yet again during Silo Season 3 Episode 6.

As Juliette recalls and discusses the safeguard, Bernard shares what he knows.
Nobody has to force him to do this. He knows that it’s the right thing to do.
In fact, it’s the only thing to do.
Even later, as Juliette figures out a way to save the children from Silo 17, Bernard is quick to share what he knows from The Order.
It’s clear that he has never been told everything, and why would he be?

This safeguard is in place to ensure all silos follow through on the orders from the Algorithm.
If the Head of IT knew exactly what the safeguard was and where the pipe led, wouldn’t they end up finding a way to block it, as Silo 17 did?
The best way to avoid this is to make sure something is kept secret, so that the safeguard remains the threat.
But Bernard doesn’t want the safeguard to be a threat.
After years of following directions and finding that it didn’t matter when it came to him being ousted, he wants to act in a way that will do what he always tried — to save the silo.

His telling Juliette that she needs to send the best engineers out to get the kids from Silo 17 and block the pipe isn’t the best way to remove a couple of threats.
They’re no longer threats to him. They would have killed him by now if they were. He knows that they are all on the same side, and so does Juliette.
I do have to say that I adored Juliette’s comments about what is outside.
It’s easy to overlook that there would be thousands of bodies from the centuries they’ve been underground and what that would do to a person.
Yes, Shirley and Knox are the best two for the job — not just in terms of being the best engineers but also their ability to look past the dead bodies — and they’ll do it because of what they’ll lose if they don’t.

Camille should have remembered who she was dealing with!
With Juliette remembering that she needs to save the children and Solo from Silo 17 and block the safeguard pipe, she realizes that she needs to make a deal.
That means making Camille and the Algorithm think that she will play by the Algorithm’s rules.
It’s clear why the Algorithm doesn’t want the children to come to the silo. That leads to questions about where they’ve come from and how they’re alive.
I’m not sure how stripping Juliette and the children of their memories will help anything, since there will be plenty of questions from others in the silo.

It makes me think that the Algorithm also has some sort of plan, and I suspect Juliette has figured that out.
She doesn’t take things at face value, and now that she has her memories back, she’s the Juliette we all know and love.
Camille will need to watch out throughout the rest of Silo!
She’s now got her husband working against her and a pesky former sheriff (and now mayor) who is more than willing to work in the shadows and work with her former enemies.
Camille was right that Juliette has something up her sleeve, but the audacity of being angry that someone is lying to her is absurd.

I’m so glad Juliette put her in her place. Camille literally drugged and lied to Juliette for months, and now she’s all butt-hurt that Juliette is lying to her?
Give me a break!
While I don’t view Camille as the true villain, she’s acting way too dumb to get the Head of IT position. That really should have gone to Sims.
Sheriff Billings has a bigger issue on his hands, and the only person he can trust with the information is Hank.

I feel sorry for Hank. He’s holding so many life-ending secrets at the moment.
Not only does he know some of what Juliette has remembered, but now he’s learned that Silo 18 really only has two years left.
Thanks to the Critical Supply thief, there aren’t enough resources to keep the food growing.
The silo was supposed to last 70 years, which I’m assuming is when whoever created it thought the world would be safe to go outside in again.
Now, it doesn’t matter if the safeguard pipe is even blocked. There isn’t much time left for the people of Silo 18.

Billings needs to tell other people.
We’ve seen Sims, Walker, and Carla try to keep the information about the safeguard a secret, and eventually, it had to spill.
Carla never seemed all that bothered by it, and that’s probably because she knew there was a bigger problem to solve anyway.
In the end, these two storylines are sure to merge.
Either Hank or Carla will reveal the truth about Critical Supply, or there will be a way to combine Silo 17 and Silo 18 — or even figure out that somewhere in the world isn’t as toxic as the land around the silos.

We just need to see people actually trusting each other.
Just not Kennedy! I still can’t see that man keeping Bernard being alive a secret at all.
If he wants to get to the bottom of it, though, Billings will need to figure out how he’s going to command respect.
People are walking all over him.
Part of that is due to his wife’s actions, but another part is because they all know he didn’t quite earn his spot as sheriff when everyone came after Juliette and when the original sheriff went outside.

As a side note, though, I’m still frustrated by the past storyline. We get a story about Daniel and Helen, stuck in a car controlled by a computer.
The one thing this does is show us just how far technology has come in this world, creating realism around the silo set-up, but it takes away from the tensions within the present day.
Each time I was in the car with them, I just wanted to get back to Silo 18, and that shouldn’t be the case.
This should be a thrilling mystery, just like it started out as during the first couple of episodes. I hope the next episode picks things up.
