I think this is Dr. Hemlock's lab, and he wants to capture Omega to use as leverage to get Nala Se to do what he wants. So there are a lot of possible directions they go with this. Most of them involve Crosshair being brainwashed into a "believer", and used to capture Omega in some way.
Ohhh, nice theory! It’s only been a week and I already forgot about the “capturing Omega” plotline 🤣 This is why I wish the show didn’t bounce around so much. But that would definitely make for a great way to have the two storylines intersect!
