There are a couple things that I think you missed. The half way devolved human gave mother the cards not following Sol's orders but as a warning not to birth the serpent. This is why Sol ordered Paul to destroy the cards. Remember the half-way devolved human attempted to push mother into the hole as a last resort but mother killed him. The show-runner stated he was from a group of half devolved humans that now live underground after escaping the surface that remember what happened in the planets past.

[@kennethfocarino7075]

My theory: Humans originally started on Kepler 22b, and they started fucking around with Dark Photons, and it created AI. From here the AI is programmed to protect human life, but it has two opposing ideas on how to do it. One side thought to preserve humanity by protecting them with technology, the other thought it best to just assimilate all humanity into the planet itself. Former: Shepards. Latter: Sol (this is a clever play on Sol, most connect it to Sun, but what if it’s really “Sole”, as in One). This also split the human populous, into Believers and Technocrats (it’s portrayed that Sol was Manipulating his previous followers, but I think they genuinely “Believed” in the concept). This is the key behind the devolving, it’s not actually devolving, it’s just separating the human “soul” (Sol, hehe, see) from the organism, leaving whatever left to be an animal with only basic instincts, with the remaining data being assimilated. The first idea the technocrats had was to build a shield that would stop Sol (Tropical Zone). It worked for a time, but Sol and his followers found a method to break into the Zone by implanting the Sol mind in Giant Snake Weapons (More thematic WMD shit) This worked, and The Shepards only solution was to leave Kepler for a more suitable planet, which would be Earth. By the skin of there teeth, the last remaining technocrats escape and settle on Earth. However, in the midst of the technocrats, there are two followers of Sol (reference to Romulus and Remus) that bring with them the instructions and schematics on how to harness Dark Photons, in an effort to recreate Sol on Earth. However these two are lost to time somehow and are buried with all the plans. 10s of thousands of years later, humanity progresses on Earth normally, until humanity reaches a tipping point due to the lack of resources. This is when the Sol Believers and there plans are discovered, and Dark Photons save humanities energy crisis. However, an extremely religious ruling class emerges (The Mithraic, basically capitalizing off of a world in shambles and giving them a belief system that ACTUALLY worked). From one extremist group to another, the Atheists are founded to fight against this oppressive regime. The Atheist/Mithraic war happens, and because they misunderstood the Believers plans, Kepler 22b was chosen as a holy destination, instead of our origin point. From there the events of the show progress until Grandma is brought back to life. As soon as she figures out what time, and where she is (the scene where father is talking to her, and she appears to shut down), she goes “Oh shit, these idiots came back, AND destroyed Earth. Fuck, let’s try the fish man plan again. A different form of de-evolution that would maintain the basics of humanity, but with an eroded enough Soul that Sol considers it useless. Not only does this explain things. It’s thematically resonant. RBW loves playing with duality/two halves of the same whole, and blind faith leading to destruction. It’s also a special kind of ironic, the whole thing. How both the Athiests/Mithraic overtime, completely switched ideologies (Believers in a collective turning humanist, and vice versa), and the entire goal being to ESCAPE Kepler instead of going there. Either that or time travel.

[@eshanmohotty3704]

Nicely explained. Thumbs up 👍🏻

[@pdcdesign9632]

Wow, that's some essay you just wrote. when is you book coming out? 🤣 You mentioned: Latter: Sol (this is a clever play on Sol, most connect it to Sun, but what if it’s really “Sole”, as in One) The problem with all these play on words is that it only works with certain world mythologies. The eastern cultures of China, India and Japan have no freaking idea what those goofy Latin words mean. If this super intelligent entity (AI) is responsible for the protection of all humans and responsible for their exodus to other planets like earth, why in the hell did it make it so complicated for humans to understand each other.? If you want to play with words, you call also say maybe the creators of this show love BETTER CALL SAUL and instead of RBW this should have been named BETTER PRAISE SOL. 😂😂

[@kennethfocarino7075]

@@pdcdesign9632 I’m not getting the humans not understanding eachother, you mean like different Languages?!

The term "raised by wolves" is a metaphore for when humans are raised by another creature (Like the wolves in the Romulus and Remus story or even the Jungle book). Here in the begining of the story children are raised by beings who once hunted and killed humans like them. Hence the metaphore of "wolves". What's more when Mowgli was raised by wolves he was a wild child, not knowing the ways of human social behaviour.

Shepherds and Necromancers are two different kinds of androids. Grandmother makes a point of calling Mother "the weapon." I don't think she would mention this if she were a weapon too. It's pointed out that Grandmother has something unknown in place of Mother's weapons system.

[@ep11-o7s]

Yeah, grandmother emitted radiant light that no other android has ever, no even necromancers. That is an indication of something very important embedded in her that makes her different from an ordinary necromancer.

[@fmaries7000]

I would agree with you because Necromancers were originally created to destroy/kill. Grandmother/Shepards were originally created to ensure the everlasting life of humans.

My guess is the fruit from the tree prevents humans from devolving. That’s why Campion shows signs of devolving because he didn’t eat the fruit. I think that sol’s true purpose might be more complicated and morally ambiguous.

🤔 At first I thought the “Number 7” tree was new, but isn’t it just the “Sue” tree in a zombified form? Number 7 didn’t really digest the tree, so when it died, the Sue tree broke out of the dead serpent body. Super creepy scene!

[@nightcoresurvival5406]

Yeah this is what I thought

[@FromagioCristiano]

And another thing about Number 7 weaponazied-serpent is that is it really trying to hunt Campion or is it trying to lure him away? Because when it is chasing Campion just after the forest it seems to hesitate on attacking him when it could easily scream-muder Campion, even shooting the acid water in a manner foreshadowing Grandmother plans to devolve humans. It was strangely protective of Campion even when chasing him. And about Sue-tree, what if Number 7 destroyed it to prevent Sol from comunicating inside the EMF? We are driven to conclude that Number 7 is just Sol's puppet and plain evil but I think it is a lot more complex and has emotions too like Campion tell to Vrille one time. Well, will we ever know now, with Number 7 killed? Probably not.

[@peterschuerman]

1. Grandmother mutated Tempest’s baby when it was still in the womb. You see an “ultrasound” of the baby on Grandmother’s veil when she does it, and we see Tempest feel it when this is happening. The baby starts to develop much faster after this happens, which might mean that Grandmother also did something to Tempest at the same time to accelerate gestation. That moment when Tempest goes into Father’s workshop is why the baby was acid resistant. 2. Romulus’ tooth doesn’t devolve humans. It is a relic from an android, possibly cyborg, individual. What Marcus found was a cyborg, a devolved human that was encapsulated inside what might be called an android exosuit. The android exosuit was mostly powered down, just acting as a sort of stasis pod for the devolved human inside. The tooth provided a jolt, sort of like fuel blood, to allow it to power up but it wasn’t enough for it to maintain its integrity, so it fell apart, revealing the just-awakened devolved human. This points to a kind of symbiosis that was occurring on the planet between devolved humans and mechanical life such as the androids. This may have been a way to try to counter the devolution, by mechanically compensating for the physical and mental deficiencies with an android exterior that made the devolved human more like a regular human.

[@eshanmohotty3704]

Yep that makes sense. 👏🏻👍🏻

[@PseudoX187]

If you watch the scene the human straight up transforms in to the creature, watch the face and head closely. There is no exo suit, it would fall away to land on the ground. IMO, it makes more sense that this human was just isolated from the outside world when the de-evolution occurred. Hence all the bones here used as a barricade to block the tunnel entrance. It is possible he was even called on by Sol to hide away here. When Marcus brings the tooth of Romulus into the cave and in close proximity of this human the nanotech detects the DNA that it was programmed to target and enacts a de-evolution protocol on it.

[@peterschuerman]

@@PseudoX187 The suit disintegrates. It’s probably more accurate to say that it’s an “android sheath“ around the de-evolved human. Kind of like what we saw in Independence Day.

[@PseudoX187]

@@peterschuerman Seems more like a flight suit, the texture on the arms and legs does resemble the texture on the tanks from the tarantula though. Hadn't noticed that detail before. Both things can be true however, it could be an exosuit and the human was isolated. I don't think the human was de-evolved though until interacting with the tooth. I think that's just what the humans looked like on this planet. Then they escape to earth and further evolution is how they end up looking like us. Now that I've re watched this scene a few times I'm more curious as to why he's covered in shed serpent skin. Hmmm...

Tempest’s baby began changing after touching Grandmother. Not long after, her pregnancy accelerated and had the baby early. Grandmother also showed Father the same creature that would take her baby. Therefore, I believe Grandmother altered the baby’s DNA and allowed it to survive the acid. Also great call out on the creatures being interested in the babies.

[@victoriasolovei4505]

I think so, also the reason why Tempest left and went to give birth next to the acidic water. The child already craved that water and was closer to the creatures rather than humans.

Really great recap! I will add that so far the children who have begun devolving are Campion and Tempest's baby. We get the explanation for the baby (mermom milk), but if Campion is being affected by the game, then everyone else should be seeing symptoms too. What is actually causing his changes is the fungus I think. He's eaten a lot more fungus than everyone else, if you include the type he found in the pits in season one. Granny also made a point of directing them to eat the plentiful sea fungus, so that likely isn't just to keep them from eating human meat. So what's the starfish game about? My guess is either that it 'reprograms' the colonists (brainwashing, like with Cleaver), and/or it simply helps keep them occupied so that they are too busy to notice what's happening or to be influenced by the entity.

If they add more questions than answers i feel people will just gradually stop watching out of frustration and boredome.

Awesome job! So much great information!

[@fmaries7000]

Great review! I would like to add my idea of what the Entity's ultimate goal is. As you explained wonderfully what grandmother's goals with humans is, devolution, I believe the Entity's goal is the same just in a different direction. Instead devolution, grandmother's idea, the Entity is working to Evolve humanity into the next, more advanced species. The Entity induced vision of Campion to mother in the SIM tells mother that humans will always destroy themselves and that what she will give birth to is the real reason she is there on Kepplar. I believe the entity uses the idea of God/spirituality to manipulate humans into engaging in the ceremonies depicted in those cards in able to create that more advanced hybrid bio/tech species. The Entity's original goal was most likely to serve humanity but ultimately, like grandmother, tired of the continual destructional loops of self destruction. So, like grandmother, the Entity also "Altered the Equation" to make it's directives fit. "IT EQUATES!!!!".

This was a great analysis and I feel like you only scratched the surface. I would love to see more from you on this series.

[@LaPorteTube]

Need more of this

[@BryceEdwardBrown]

More is on the way!

[@LaPorteTube]

@@BryceEdwardBrown Do you think the original Campion knew that Mother would get pregnant by Sol with the serpent and that is the real mission and not the human kids brought with them?

[@tonyday7632]

Thank you for your explination, I am sorry the series wasn't renewed so we could see how your interpretations panned out. I really enjoyed it.

[@chrisgray1370]

Hands down the best explanation of the show ...much respect my guy

[@BryceEdwardBrown]

That means a lot to hear, thank you

[@davebarrett33]

Best analysis by far! Keep going! Thanks.

[@BryceEdwardBrown]

Will do!

Same!

still wished we could have gotten another season

[@ivaniuk123]

I don't think Sol is evil, I think he is misunderstood 🤔 I think the real enemy are the technocrats and GM because she is de-evolving the humans.

[@ep11-o7s]

Honestly, Sol has no regard for their lives, it has its own purpose and is obviously playing a chess game. What it wants, no one knows yet but the way he disposes people as it see's fit makes it just like the Trust: untrustworthy.

[@robophilip]

Great breakdown Bryce! Would love to hear season 3 speculations and predictions. Love the "NecroMarcus" and how this upside down sword is going to confront grandma! Great video, thanks for having it ~20min and not 2 hours of rambling!

"R rated Lost in Space" is spot on. Both great shows for VERY different reasons, but one common one: excellent storytelling.

[@Pajerotraveller]

Brilliant review of this amazing series!

[@DynamiteNow]

The best breakdown I have watched yet!

[@jkris1947]

the best overall summary through Season 2, great work Bryce!

[@BryceEdwardBrown]

Ahhh you're too kind Jared Day, thank you!

[@Beavernator]

Best suggestion I can give to a viewer is this... Look up the meaning or definition of every character... Glad that you went through that as well... The creator of the show is BIG on symbolism... Lots of characters have SIGNIFICANT meaning behind their name... Can give you hints on where this shows plot MAY go...

[@Thatdudemayne]

Loved some of the stuff you pointed out. Totally onboard for watching a part 2-90 :)

[@ztiwar]

Def one of the best breakdowns so far, would love for you to more & thnx

Thank you!

I love watching these type of shows then watching videos like this to put all the pieces together I might have missed. Thank you

[@Obsidian-Nebula]

It might be random but I feel like there's some portion of scenes/ camera shots missing from the show. Some situations make no sense unless You imagine something happened in between but got cut short

[@cameronhofstetter4936]

You really don't get the name of the series, Raised by wolves, the story of Romulus and Remus being raised by a she wolf, a foreign mother raising human babies, it's not about acting like wolves

[@CrystalGregory]

If you could go all the way up to making 90 parts, I would watch it!! I love this show and have so many thoughts on it, but I have no one to talk about it with. So it’s really cool to watch videos with other people talking about my favorite shows.

[@RealBradMiller]

More parts please! Also, the reflection of the lights on the veil are different between Mother and Grandmother, with Mother having a circle disconnected at the top in an almost ouroboros-like fashion while Grandmother has a starburst similar to the Mithraic.

[@julesgosnell9791]

I had an interesting thought - whilst we are all probably thinking 'Sol' is the Latin for 'Sun' and therefore Mithraics are worshipping the Sun - 'Sol' is also the French for 'Soil' - so, perhaps, way back in the Mithraic religion there was a misunderstanding and a God/AI/Alien (all the same thing - "power beyond our understanding") located in the middle of the planet/Earth/Soil and named accordingly became mislocated into the Sun :-) - or maybe I haven't had enough sleep - watched last episodes last night -Thank-you Ridley :-)

[@julesgosnell9791]

"Soil": late Middle English: from Anglo-Norman French, perhaps representing Latin solium ‘seat’, by association with solum ‘ground’.

[@AJRed96]

Dude, great research & explanations. Good job man!

[@BryceEdwardBrown]

Much appreciated!

[@AJRed96]

Bryce, you are so easy on the eyes. Pun intended.

[@AJRed96]

You really spoke so eloquently. I’m impressed, and I follow this show to a T.

[@EMPERORSPROTECTION-TERRA4LIFE]

Best series ever made. Makes 0 sense that they cancelled it.

[@under_me]

This show deserves more attention. Loved the video!

[@BryceEdwardBrown]

Same! Really hope we get a season 3

[@B_Don123]

It’s not sol, it’s an entity or signal using the humans belief in sol or belief in anything to get what it wants. The growth of serpents
