Episode 6 of Silo Season 3 shows that no one trust in no one and Im really enjoying this season, except for the past scenes from where everything started because to be honest is not as interesting as living in the Silo, its kinda the same old conspiracy story and the difference is that the Silo is its own silent character within the series, so its mostly each one of them are making their own rule, follow their own needs and face different realities. Inside Silo 18 everything feels urgent, personal and dangerous while the Before Times scenes just keep asking for patience without giving enough back yet, at times feel empty and flat even when a self driving car kidnap you. Juliette is the key for all of this, she has her memory back enough to understand what she needs and what she needs to reach Silo 17. Now she is not quite, she challenge Camille and neither of her can simply received order from the other. Camille is the one with authority but Juliette is the person with enough influence and information that ignoring her can create another problem, just imagine for how long she has been collecting Silo data since the times of the hard drive in Season 1. Now the one that works around the algorithm is Juliette not only Camille, she is aware that every option or path take it can affect Silo 18 and it will be judge and any plan she brings out can still be rejected if he risk is too high, for that reason she needs to be smarter and never give all the information at once, being in constant change with her approaches and work in a way that the algorithm can't really understand completely what she really wants. For Juliette that is a dangerous move, so it is really interesting how now the people in Silo 18 will start make their moves just because trust no longer exist, Juliette needs Silo 17, Camille doesn't trust her neither her husband and the algorithm start thinking in Juliette as a future problem, people is taking their sides and the way he play their cards will marked the difference.

Juliette Plays the Algorithm to Reach Silo 17
At this point the series is taking some speed as things start happening faster in Silo 18 since Juliette has her memory back but she is willing to lose her memories again only for the sake of the children of Silo 17, she request them to be safe and she will make that sacrifice, in that moment Bernard enter in scene and mention that for that mission she will need his two best engineers Shirley and Knox, they basically accept on the spot, Knox spoke with Shirley and told her that she is not coming that he will go but is going someone else to go with him, but if you have seen at least this season from the start you already know she is stubborn and convinced Knox that she is the only one that can complete that mission with him, so he accepted. Well is so understanding why Knox doesn't her to go, she is pregnant so if she go out of the safety place that is Silo 18 well she and the baby will be danger. At the end the ones that are going to rescue the children to Silo 17 is Patrick and Lukas but Juliette now needs to play this smart because she doesn't has the approval from the algorithm yet and still send them, before she goes to talk to it, she has an argument with Camille that is not happy for the decisions that Juliette is making, everything if fuck up between those two women. At the end Juliette talk with algorithm asking for Shirley and Knox to go to Silo 17 but it was denied and she knew that will the result and for that reason she has a back up plan that was Patrick and Lukas and the algorithm accept and after she left, Camille was in shock for the approval but here the episode give us something really important, no matter what the damn algorithm says or wants, nobody is safe and why I mention that, because after Juliette left the algorithm room, it told Camille that Patrick and Lukas are not going to complete that mission, so here I realized that no matter who you are or with who you are aligned no one is safe, the algorithm only wants control and Camille is there to follow every word.
Billings Stops Playing Sheriff
Talking about another line of event that I think it is important, we have Billings. Billings is the sheriff of this place he supposed to have the authority to make changes, create rules, guide the people but he has nothing, it seems that he is only there to fulfil an empty space, a position but that is doing nothing for him. People ignore his authority, the changes he is supposed to be making are not really happening and the cameras he expected to be removed are still recording the Silo, everyone is taking him for a fool but Im sure that at some point he is just going to snap. At least the investigation that he was following finally gives him a reason to stop trusting the systems he is supposed to represent. The episode show step by step how Billings decided that following the law is going to give him nothing, I he mostly realize this when he was talking with Hank, he told him that the Silo instead of having 70 years of light only has 2 more years due to the light bulbs theft, Billings is upset because needs to finds answers and decided that needs to start with the dead of Orla, so he went to visit Mark Chambers, who guide to Knox but he ended demanding Emerson to watch the cameras footage, she lied to him saying that it doesn't work but he knew that she was lying so at the end he couldn't find anything about Orla but now the focus of attention was on Glenda Harwood, because she appeared in one place first and 10 minutes prior was in another, and it was impossible, Billings passed from frustration to confront a new mystery, how people on the mines move to fast in the Silo. I really like how Billings just open his eyes and start really pay attention to what is happening, also how he decided that he is not longer playing to be sheriff, almost like he got upgraded with a new purpose and no matter what he needs to go through to get the answer he is looking for.
Camille and Sims No Longer Trust Each Other
The conflict between a Camille and Sims is real and something that I bet nobody expected to be so ambigous because even though Camille should send Sims to clean, she just cant because of two things and thats his position at the Silo and the fact that he is the father of their only child, but they no longer trust each other and for being husband and wife things are going to be more difficult for both of them, starting with Sims knowing about Juliette, Bernard and the people working against Camille, while she can tell that he is keeping something from her. Camille on the other hand is changing in every aspect and all because of the pressure of running IT and knowing what can really happen to the silo, while Sims is more open to work against her if she turn into a menace and go to far with her decisions, Camille is desperate to maintain control in the silo and she is already moving in that direction because by her own she decided to place the Vitamin D+ with the approval of algorithm, she doesn't care about anyone neither her family although she says the opposite, she basically puts in a balance either they kill us or we forget, she is so focus in her terrible choice because she is so confident and has put so much trust into the algorithm who seem to have that same amount of confidence in her and she is doing this mostly because she believes control is safer than letting Juliette keep building support. She doesn't care about the people that is going to lose their memory, just imagined Knox and Shirley are pregnant imaging the scene that they drink the water with the Vitamin D+ and they forgot totally about that baby or Shirley wakes up not knowing who the father is or why and when she got pregnant, thats why their history tells how many people throw themself to the void of the Silo becuase their lifes even though they were already sad, had no meaning for them anymore, how that is going to the affect the baby or that Billings don't remember that is only 2 years of light and the supplies are also suffering. Is going to be very interesting see how this is going to be a reset for the silo and how is going to affect everyone.
## The Before Times Finally Move Toward the SilosThis episode has been a great trip but end with a scene from the past that didnt have anything interesting at least for now, with Helen and Daniel. They are inside a car driving through the highway when suddenly Daniel can't no longer control his car, someone or something taking them to a place and they can't resist. While that is happening Helen confess why her carrier ends, she has big news but one of her source was discovered so she didn't hesitated and decided to damaged her own career and protect that person, that's all or maybe it is how the episode wants us to believe, probably the end of her carrier has something planned to prepare her for what was coming and that also with his brother. After that talk, the car was lead to a hangar where the Senator Rosalind Thurman appears and offers Daniel and Helen a role in stopping what is coming, this is first time in a while that their section feels like it is moving directly toward the creation of the silos instead of giving another small clue. There's more to discover with Helen and Daniel and the role that they are going to take in this important task that is save the world but at the moment I want to know how everything in Silo 18 is going to continue working because they are more enemies than allies, well at least until the past scenes get more interesting, they will at some point.
Rating: 70/100
