Hi guys, I recently formulated a theory about the identity of Control that seems plausible.

For those of you who have forgotten, Control is the mysterious superior that Locus and Felix are working for on Chorus. Control wants to clear the planet of its inhabitants and control over the planet. The first question is why? Chorus is a desolate hellhole that's been ravaged by war.

Felix answers this question when discussing how he's paid by the New Republic. They give him ancient alien weaponry, because the planet is littered with alien technology. He then claims he plans to sell the weapons for a fortune.

I believe he intends to sell them directly to Control, and that Control is interested in Chorus for the alien technology. If Felix is being paid by Control, it may be for the weapons as well as hsi services. This leads me to my next point on the identity of Control.

Back in Recreation, the Insurrectionist Leader posing as CT claims he has a superior he's working for while attempting to retrieve the Monitor in the ancient alien temple. Shortly before his death, when Tucker asks him who he's working for, the Leader simply tells Tucker that he''ll never know. That statement confirms that there is a superior who wanted the alien technology.

These two individuals are clearly interested in alien tech, and it's not out of the question to assume that they are in fact the same person. Control also seems aware that the Reds and Blues are a powerful fighting force as he/she used them to stir up violence on Chorus. Control may know this because he/she knows they defeated the Insurrectionist Leader in Sandtrap.

What do you think guys? Are Control and CT's mysterious benefactor the same person? Or am I just crazy?
