What do you guys make of the new Westworld episode? It seems like all the big mysteries collided this week – Maeve's daughter and Ghost Nation, the Cradle and Ford, William and Grace... What questions do you want answered?

We'll see what sense we can make of it all, and get the video out around Thursday (:

When I saw the end of the episode my very first thought was “I have literally never been less surprised by anything in my entire life”

I was surprised, because I didn't think they would do something so unsurprising

Also in the “I have literally never been less surprised by anything in my entire life” category: William leaving Emily behind. Seriously. She did not see that coming?

ClassicsAbridged

A few thoughts: The fact that The Cradle contains an entire copy of Westworld (at least) means that every single scene is now in question. The week ahead could be happening inside The Cradle for all we know. Ford being alive wasn't too surprising but it means that "escape" from Westworld might not be truly possible. Maybe the only way out is in a robot body.

Where and when is Dolores testing the fidelity of Bernard? What are the implications of this?

Simon Lyall

If the thud that Elsie hears is really the train hitting The Mesa then it means that all the stories at The Mesa ( Elsie/Bernard, Dolores & friends, Stubbs/Charlotte/Commandos) are synchronized at the end of the episode. This seems to be confirmed by the E7 Tailer

I'd like you to dig into the dogs of Westworld more. The greyhound with young Ford, the story back at the beginning of S1, the dogs MIB sees in S1, and any others I may have missed. They seem to be signposts or guides.

Caroline Sinclair-Zuber

honestly, it's the first episode in a while that i've really enjoyed. I thought that the way that Maeve was exploring choice was a very interesting counterpoint to what Dolores was doing. Maeve accepted what the characters wanted, staying at the lake, but Dolores changed Teddy, and it didn't seem like it worked out the way that she had hoped. It still seemed like at times on the train, she was expecting some responses from him that she would have gotten if she didn't basically make him another person entirely. So.. even though she did what she wanted, she didn't really get everything either. I think that's a good point that is important in autonomy is that the choices we make have consequences, and I don't think dolores has really experience consequences for her own actions in a way that hits home to HER. Like yeah, she kills people when she wants, but they don't mean anything to her. Teddy, on the other hand, was kind a major part of her cornerstone. Dolores was able to blame the humans for Abernathy's decline, but she doesn't have anyone to blame for Teddy being not what she wanted besides herself. And, on another note, I think this is also exploring the idea of compromise for Dolores. We know in the real world that it's necessary to sometimes sacrifice things in order to have a good life or for some other reasons. Up until now, Dolores has been kind of operating under the assumption that she's just going to be going for everything that she wants, and not really caring about how she gets there. It isn't until two of those important things, teddy and her end goal, end up conflicting with each other that she realizes that maybe with this newfound freedom, she can't have everything after all

All the Cradle scenes we've seen have that distinct narrow aspect ratio - so I doubt whole chunks of the story are actually happening in the Cradle

Sable Lion

I did. But I thought every time aspect ratio changes - we get to see 30-years-old events. And everything from that moment, the last 30-something years of the park, is stored in Cradle now, and some hosts can access this data like BernArnold did.
