OK, so what the finale attempts is a "double-twist" (exactly like a
"double-cross"!).

This introduces problems.

To review (before the finale): Juliette has finally gotten her hands on
the hard-drive.

But, of course, Juliette gets captured. (Why she didn't immediately
make a beeline to the hidden area below the silo that George showed
her, to look for the "door", is never explained.) In fact, she is
captured by Bernard, who has been revealed to be the "him" pulling the
strings of the Silo. (It was neither Judge Meadows nor Robert Sims
(Common) - in fact, Sims is just Bernard's "shadow".)

So Bernard, it appears, knows everything(?) of what is really going on.

Bernard declares that Juliette has "asked to go outside" (she never
did!!) and Sims agrees. She tries to escape but is arrested. But Paul
Billing's "syndrome" allows Juliette to escape from arrest (with the
hard drive) again!

By escaping to Sims' place, where she holds Sims' wife and son captive,
Juliette manages to access a file that George Wilkins left for her.
Later, with the help of Patrick Kennedy (Rick Gomez) and a hacker dude,
she also accesses the "cleaning" file that shows that the outside of
the silo is beautiful. She even manages, with their help, to broadcast
the "beautiful outside" image to some of the screens in the lower
levels before Bernard manages to squash it (but not before everyone in
the "surveillance room" sees the images).

In the finale, Juliette manages to evade capture long enough to get
down to Walk (Harriet Walter) and tell her something before Juliette is
arrested. But she is arrested at Walk's and Bernard "destroys" the hard
drive. (Is this the real hard drive, or a fake cooked up by Juliette
and Walker?)

Bernard makes a deal with Juliette - if Juliette will go outside, he
will show her what really happened to George, and he won't punish
anyone else. (Which is a lie, as he punishes Lukas, the guy in the
cafeteria who was pretty much almost entirely innocent.) Bernard shows
her the footage which reveals(?) that George killed himself rather than
let himself be taken in by Judicial.

Here's problem #1: We know that they can manipulate footage - who is to
say that the George footage isn't just a big "deepfake"?!

Anyway, frustratingly, Juliette never negotiates to have Bernard tell
her everything he knows as part of the deal. This is asinine, as by
this point she clearly wants to know. The fact that she doesn't
negotiate for this is pure writer fiat.

Worse, Juliette cavalierly reveals the existence of the door at the
bottom of the silo to Bernard - Why would she assume he knows about it?!

Later, Bernard seems to retrieve the drive part of the hard drive - I
took this to mean that he realized that he had destroyed a
fake/duplicate; Wiki says it's because he wants to retrieve the file on
the door at the bottom.

Then we get to the big reveal.

Based on whatever Juliette said to Walk, Walk figures out that the
"heat tape" used for the protective suits for the "cleaners" was
defective (intentionally) leading to the fast deaths of people like
Allison and Holston Becker. Walk goes outside of her place(!!) to go to
her ex, in Supplies, to make sure the tape for Juliette's suit is good.

Juliette is put outside. She defiantly refuses to "clean", which
garners boos from the residents of the silo who are watching. She
stumbles exactly where the Beckers did, but this is the equivalent of a
"jump-scare", and is just for dramatic effect. [roll]

Juliette figures out that what she is seeing in her visor is *exactly*
the same as the footage from the hard drive. IOW, it's a fake. An
illusion. (Apparently, just to get people to clean.) We never do
confirm if the bodies are really outside like shown in the display,
though...

Her suit working properly to keep out the... (radiation? poison?),
Juliette makes it to the top of the "hill" surrounding the silo, as the
silo residents watch. But Bernard knows that Juliette has figured out
the illusion, and runs away from the viewers, apparently down to Level
18.

Juliette's visor reveals the true picture. The outside is actually
exactly like the displays show - the Earth is destroyed(?), and there
is a ruined city (Atlanta, maybe?) off in the distance. But more
importantly, the "crater" that surrounds the silo isn't the only one -
there are dozens(?) more craters, that all(?) apparently contain other
silos.

OK, so here are the big problems:

If Bernard knows all of this is true, then why not just "read Juliette"
in?! Just telling Juliette everything Bernard knows would likely have
prevented all of the chaos, and they could have made her part of the
"conspiracy".

Instead, what happens doesn't make any sense - the secret they were
keeping is that the world really has gone to hell, and going outside
really does kill you?! Why not just tell her?!!

Also, if it's been at least about 250 years (100 years to the
"rebellion" and 140 years since) since what ever killed earth, that
"dead" tree outside of the silo would be long gone!!

Some questions:

Bernard has a mysterious "key" that seems to be for Level 18. I assumed
that allows him to contact the other silos? But the hard drive was also
"18" - So maybe it's something else. (Wiki may have spoiled me on
what...)

What's the door at the bottom of the silo? Based on the ending, I'm
guessing these doors attach all of the other silos to each other,
perhaps?

Reading Wiki on the "Silo" books kind of spoiled me on what likely
happens next. But based on the ending, I think it's kind of obvious.

They were told to close their eyes and forget. So it doesn't count.
;-) The bigger question that wasn't answered is who *else* saw the
footage. We were never shown any other point of view.

That crossed my mind too. But for now, I'll assume it's real.

Why wouldn't she assume he knows? If he knows "everything" then he'd
know that too. It's not like he had a ton of time to think it over.

Here's a thought, outside is perfectly safe. The suit doesn't keep
anything out, on the outside. The people who die soon after going out
die because they are poisoned during decontamination. Exactly *why* do
you need to be "decontaminated" before going out into a poisonous
wasteland? However, if you happen to suit up using good tape, then the
poison can't penetrate the suit and you live once you're outside in the
nontoxic environment.

If he's telling the watchers to close their eyes then clearly the
secrets of the Silo aren't big enough for more than one or two people at
a time and she definitely isn't on that list. Plus then she wouldn't
get to go outside and set up season 2.

Don't read the Wiki!

Another question is Does Bernard know about the other silos. And is
there anyone left alive in them. Perhaps he does know about them and he
knows everyone in them died every time they read in someone like
Juliette instead of sending them out to clean.

Yes - that was definitely a flaw with that sequence.

Also, they never followed up on the people who saw the "beautiful
footage" in the cafeteria just before the power was cut to fix the
generator...

Yes, I also considered that it was "decontamination" that kills you.

I was frustrated Juliettel never took off her helmet to see if the
outside was OK.

But, if the outside is "safe", it's harder to explain why Bernard and
co. would kill people going outside - Better to let them leave, and see
if somewhere outside if "liveable" now!...

It still doesn't make any sense - Bernard likely causes far less
disruption if he just tells Juliette the truth, circa about episode #7.

But not telling Juliette, Bernard almost allowed her to cause a rebellion!
