Sinatra lost her son Dylan at a young age and never moved on. The show has repeated this many times, she’s completely devastated and haunted by his death.
she created (or implemented) Alex specifically to pull her son from a parallel universe and bring him into her own world.
Think Kingpin’s collider in Into the Spider-Verse or Wanda dreamwalking to grab her kids in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
After setting everything in motion, the one major obstacle to her plan was lack of enough gravity. To overcome it, she built this entire underground city — not just a bunker, but a massive, engineered environment. On the surface, it looked like a chance for humanity to restart after the failed world outside. But in reality, it was all for her: to create the perfect conditions with extreme gravity inside a controlled “curve” (spacetime curvature?) so Alex could successfully bring Dylan back.
That’s why, in Season 2 Episode 7, Dylan (Link) tells her: “You didn’t build anything you squeezed every last drop out of a planet that you and your friends destroyed at first place.” He sees through the humanitarian cover story. Everything she did the apocalypse-level destruction outside, the over-engineered bunker — was ultimately selfish, all to generate the gravity needed for the multiverse import.
When Dylan came for the negotiation, he demanded Alex because he wants to use it to go back to his original universe. He knows he’s been ripped out of his timeline, and he’s desperate to reverse it before the bleed effects (nosebleeds, instability) get worse or the realities fully collapse.
This would explain the “It worked” moment, the matching birthday, the nosebleeds as side effects of timeline displacement, and why Dylan is so determined to reach/destroy Alex once she send her back to his original universe…

Ok….I went down a Rabbit Hole reading Paradise theories on FB ( spoiler for after epi 7 and before 8) this is a pretty uniform thought on Alex……
