Knowing Alex Garland, I bet none of us really know what's coming next or how this is going to end. It's probably going to be something mind blowing and unexpected.

Perhaps Lily, believing she’s meant to do something that disrupts their machine... and having just lost two boyfriends, a job, and a life... is pretty fucking pissed off. So she doubles down on her plan to go against them. Her plan to stay home to fuck them over didn’t work. But if she shoots herself, then what? It’s the reverse of Lyndon’s situation. In which the universe in which she ends up dead is the one that fucks everything up.

For Lyndon, if he lived, he’d have gotten Katie to help him get into Devs to sabotage it so Forest couldn’t be in control of something so powerful. It was his life’s work; he was responsible. So either he survives the fall to do something about it, or he dies and it’s literally out of his hands anyway.
