This almost positively is a move by Michelle of defiance. Who else would that woman be? What would someone other than Michelle’s motives be (unless they are her underling, on assignment)?
According to the emails, she is responsible for things going off course, and Samson seems to be the enforcer. Maybe Michelle was the creative (mind) force behind ASCENSION (the production). The production that is being put on by members of the COA- a division of the Institute (a conglomerate).
The corporate side of the Institute – OSDM – seems to have given Michelle (a non-believer) the task of managing the event: Ascension.
(BUSINESS) OSDM needs (Spiritual) COA membership/commitment up so they tell (business) Michelle to come up with a gimmick, so they can mine our data- allowing them to easily identify and select their prey/victims.
Maybe Michelle hired Sabrina (the actress) to be a part of the event: Ascension.
The (spiritual) COA and the OOA collude to overtake the event: Ascension via gatekeeper 4, 3, and 2.
Sabrina is brainwashed by the helmet and begins to lose her sense of self. She starts to become her character slowly, until she believes she is Addison- then the Overseer. She flees with the sacred text.
The OSDM regain control of the event: Ascension by kidnapping (as seen on THE ONE periscope)- trying to bring it back to their original goal- probably something involving fraud/identity theft.
Ascension, the event, begins under the OSDM control and with rebel groups consistently undermining them.
Addison starts to glitch and reveals her true identity as Sabrina Kern, causing the lines to blur even further.
The COA/OOA, OSDM, and Clockmakers can’t seem to agree on what is truth (about Anoch), and what was the lie.
Which came first? Ancoh or the business of Anoch? Did the faith spur the business or was the religion the means of business?
