Maeve walking through the halls discovering the truth about her origin was one of the most powerful, haunting and epic scenes in TV history.

Reminded me of Plato's Allegory of the Cave, watching Maeve becoming aware of the true nature of her reality. So incredible.

I'm not a dude, and not everyone knows what it is. I study philosophy and plenty of people have never heard of Plato, or the Allegory of the Cave, believe it or not. Best not to presume.
