They are told that the outside world is infected by poisonous gas.It became unfit for human habitation, and the remaining survivors took refuge in the bunker and formulated rules to maintain the operation of the new society in the bunker.
A revolution broke out in Silo 17, and the residents inside the silo fled to the outside world.At this moment, Juliet stepped into the abandoned silo, and her footsteps shuttled among the bodies scattered outside the entrance.She explored upwards layer by layer and found that the upper floors were empty, while the lower floors were mercilessly swallowed by floods.Faced with the fact that the bridge leading to the IT department was in ruins, Juliet decided to build a temporary bridge on her own.However, when she carefully stepped on the fragile bridge, it collapsed under the weight.

He knew that the price of revolution was heavy, and hoped to try his best to avoid war and protect his people from harm.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Bernard gave a speech. He claimed that the IT department had produced a new tape that would allow Juliet's life to continue, but at the same time he insisted that Juliet was no longer alive.During his speech, Meadows expressed support for Bernard.While most Silo residents were receptive to this explanation, Shirley remained skeptical.
When Juliet learns of the existence of dozens of silos, she realizes that her actions could spark a revolution within the silos.Zoro tried to communicate with her, not only providing her with food, but also suggesting that she put on a fireman's uniform and leave quietly.At first, Solo was determined not to give up the vault, but at the moment Juliet was about to leave, he changed his mind.Seeing this, Juliet offers to help him get to the upper level.
