Probably already mentioned, but Teddy lights those axe murderers up with his gun at the end and they all barely flinch. So, I guess the implication is that five or six guests decided to join a murdering cult?

Here's a question regarding the Wyatt story line...

Writer guy wants to introduce Odyssey on Red River which Dr. Ford shuts down because it is nothing but cheap thrills. He says:

Then Dr. Ford gives Teddy a backstory about Wyatt, and presumably introduces the Wyatt story line into the park.

So what do you guys think Ford's agenda is behind the Wyatt story line? Could it be that Wyatt does actually recruit park guests to become part of his terrible posse? It seems incongruent for Ford to simply introduce a more difficult round of bosses to make that short story arch more terrifying for the guest.

In fact, until the last scene, this episode almost looked like it was running backwards for her. She digs up a gun, then she has a gun in her dresser, then she pulls the gun off of the outlaw guy. Seems like the natural order would have been, get the gun, hide it in the house, bury the evidence. To be fair, I didn't notice the details enough to see if this is the same gun, but I assume it is.

That's something straight out of Memento right there. Props for coming up with a real theory that I haven't even seen on Reddit.

Interesting take. Wonder who wrote the original short story for that film....

---

And how about that line from TMIB to Delores: "Let's re-acquaint ourselves... starting with the end".

Definitely something to all this.

The could go the whole inception route, the west is the first layer, but the command center is the second. Guests can play cowboy or be a park employee for a day that oversees the park for other guests.

The big reveal will be some kid playing Westworld Tycoon on his PC.

My theory on this: She stole the gun from chops in a previous iteration of this narrative. She then buries the gun, digs it up after the world has been reset, and hides it for herself in the haystack for the next time chops attacks her in the barn. Her facial expression when she's laying on the haystack is more of a "holy **** I just found a gun in this haystack" than a "I just stole a gun from chops." I was confused at first about chops looking down at his (presumably empty) holster, but then I think it's just a flicker of Delores's memory from the previous time that she stole his gun -- in much the same vain as the face of her dead dad was flickering between the two hosts.

I think you guys are reading too much into "if they are shot and don't die then they must be guests".

It was mentioned for the storyline that his followers don't feel pain -- I think the assumption should be that they were designed that way for this specific storyline.

There is not feeling pain and then there is getting shot with a gun from point blank range and not even flinching. Seems the physics alone would cause them to at least take a step back.

mythbusters covered this. even a shotgun blast at point blank was barely enough to nudge a hog carcass hanging from a precariously balanced hook. iirc.

What exactly is that image supposed to show? The can looks the same unless I am missing something.
I think the westworld wouldn't change the design of a can of condensed milk over the years. If it ain't broke...

The can thing seems like reaching to me. If we're supposed to be paying THAT close of attention, then I need a bigger TV.
