    I wonder if they will use the memory restoration thing on Dusk to find out something wild about Demerzel. A couple episodes ago they went into the memory database and realized that the original Cleon had vastly more memories at the end of his life than the rest of the Dusks. I’m not sure if they explained it, but does every knew Empire absorb the knowledge of the previous or do they re-learn all of that knowledge every time they are born? At any rate some kind of memory suppression or knowledge suppression thing must be going on in their brains. They likely have some kind of built-in brainwashing that lets Demerzel control their decisions when need be.

      I wonder that till the end of episode. Him meeting OG Cleon makes me think he might not survive to try. I’ve been wondering about how all the past Cleon’s nears the end had a similar amount of memories wiped. Dawn and Dusk just used the previous clones base line to compare their own and see if they were similar and not being too altered by Day. It’s like they tend to follow a preset life cycle and hit stages in their life where memories need to be erased. I wonder if Dusk naturally becomes curious about the memory erasure in this part of his life.

      Can’t wait till the next episode with Demerzel and hopefully get some answers.

        I’m hoping for some crazy robot (android) conspiracy where Demerzel has been creating a robot army for hundreds of years and is waiting to destroy all humans. 🤖

      What if they are actually killed a lot. By enemies of the imperium or Demerzel itself, and the memory back up always lost some before the assassination. They always talk about the clones and how they would be replaced for a clone.
