From what I get it, the fantasy/hallucination wss made by Batel for herself and Pike, because she knew they would never see again andshe (somehow, I guess that’s part of the Beholder superpower?) constructed a fake world so they could, in some way, live their life together. That’s why Pike didn’t suffer the accident, and that’s why Bayel thanks him on her deathbed and tells him to open the door. She got her life together with him, it was time to get back to reality and become the Guardian.
That’s also why the falling star happears in the planet, she told him she would follow everywhere in his heart, and a falling star happears (“here I am” she says in the fantasy life).
Yeah, I think you’re right - that’s the only anwer that makes any kind of sense. I was just thrown by the fact that Real Batel showed absolutely no awareness of, or interest in, what had happened when Pike snapped out of it. At least, that’s what I remember - I haven’t gone back to double-check.
The entire episode, while enjoyable, was prettt rushed, if it was split in a two-parts season finale they would probably fit in more explaination scenes, like at least an aknowledgement from Batel and some more explaining/exploration of what she was.
