Throughout this video we’re gonna be breaking it down and also talking about theories about where things are gonna go. On our last video we talked about how Maries Aunt Pam called Cipher Dr Gold and we said how that sounded like Godolkin. Sounded like an idiot but we find out that Ciphers his son. There was actually a clue when we look at what Pam said and huge shoutouts to graymancharge. They pointed out that Godolkin is an anagram of kin o Gold. Gen V turns into UFC as The Blood Bender is forced to fight The Gender Bender. Can’t cancel me for saying that, it’s in the show! Up yours woke moralists. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gztJxEL610 But there’s a lot to break down and I dont wanna waste anymore of your time so lets just get into it right after you hit the thumbs up what So last week’s three episode premiere ended with Jordan Li telling the world that they were the one who hurt Cate. Not the Starlighters.

I got it. Cypher is just a body, like a zombie body for Tomas goldokin. Similar to how professor x needs a wheelchair, goldokin needs a body. And he can control the body like a puppet, as well as use that body to reach out and control others. Physic powers just like professor x. When he says “that’s my father” he means creator. Thats why he eats weird milk shakes, it’s the bare minimum to keep a human body healthy.

I wonder if Cipher's powers are connected Godolkin's lifeforce. Or that Goldokin is using Cipher's body to live on and continue perfecting the "master race"

I think Kate can grow her powers in the same way as Cipher because when she was in the hospital she possessed someone.

Wrote all of this before watching the video: I am convinced that the body in the chamber, Cipher's "father" is actually him and he is possessing Cipher as a body. Perhaps the body is burned and mangled after that flashback we saw which was maybe when he also got his powers, meaning he is actually Godolkin. His interest in Marie is because of her powerful she is, but I think he has Cate as his apprentice because they actually have the same power (like Victoria Neuman's interest in Marie). I also think Cate having to touch people to push is similar to Emma thinking she had to gorge/ purge to change sizes, likely linked to her trauma (touched her brother and told him to go and never come back) same way Emma's eating habits were trauma linked to her mother. I think Cate is a lot stronger than she realises which they have hinted at. Just remembered, this adds to why Cate couldn't read his mind even before her powers were on the fritz, because he is also telepathic. And how he knew about Odessa, or the camera recording them. To add: They have already set up that Cate doesn't need to touch others, she can hear thoughts and brought several people into her mind all without touching them.

cipher is just a body controlled by godolkin (the body in ciphers house) as the last time we saw godolkin he was burned in a fire which explains why he looks like tht now and since he cant move and is barely alive he uses cipher as a body, tht explains why cipher has powers and why he doesnt have compound v in his system it also explains wht his powers are, and i believe his powers are soo strong tht he can use his powers through cipher to control others, this also explains why cate couldn't read his mind b4 her powers got messed up, because cipher is just a husk

Cate can't read Cypher's mind because Cypher isn't the one thinking. It's Godolkin and she doesn't have the range.

Cypher just being a mind controlled proxy for Thomas Godolkin would explain why Cate hasn’t been able to read his mind.
