I see Delores starting to move through Westworld like Neo in the Matrix. She can now see what is about to happen before it happens and easily defeat other hosts. Will she harm guests is my question? I think, yes.

How did creepy host wake up when he was getting his head sawed off? And why was he cutting his head off?

I took her "glitches" as more Groundhog Day than some demi god.

IIRC when they get too damaged they just shove their head on a new body.Greeze06 said:

Excellent analogy. And I love Groundhog Day.Quote:

So when should we expect the hot air balloon to land in the town with a man named Henry Gale inside of it?Centerpole90 said:
Ford says the second thing that Arnold did not account for in his original programming was 'the other group who considered their thoughts to be the voices of the Gods.' Bernard answers "lunatics" and then Ford replies...
"Indeed. We abandoned the approach. The only vestiges that remain are the voice commands we use to control them."
I think there are more vestiges remaining.

Not sure if the second episode tl;dw was posted, but here it is anyways.

Here's my favorite of the lot:

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.

SIAP. I thought old bill looked familiar. Michael Wincott.
Top Dollar from the Crow.
Guy of Gisborne from Prince of Thieves.
It didn't really "attack him" though in the sense that that is was sort of self defense. That's why I think this scene is interesting. The host probably could have killed him, but didn't, it just climbed out of the hole. And when it tried to attack someone its core code kicked in and it couldn't.LHIOB said:
I saw someone make a prediction that Stubbs in a Host. he has made some jokes about his programming and the Host attacked him while it would not attack Elsie.
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.bobinator said:

I need to rewatch this one again, but it certainly looks like Delores' "mind" is shifting between timelines and she can't control it.

The Wild West had double action revolvers starting around 1877 or so, when Colt introduced them. They weren't considered as accurate when firing double action because of the heavier trigger pull needed to work the action. But certainly if it's supposed to be set in the 1880s or so, a DA revolver would not at all be out of place.civilized05 said:I was honestly waiting for that to happen.proc said:When Teddy was trying to teach her to shoot, she had her thumbs on the same sides as her index fingers. Had she fired it, that hand cannon would have flown right back into her chin.OldArmy71 said:
Speaking of Delores shooting the revolver, I wonder what time period in the Old West this is supposed to be? Everyone seems to have single action revolvers, which means she would have had to cock the gun to shoot it. She does not cock it, yet it fires.

He says they aren't real, but they seem to be pretty real to the hosts.MW03 said:
I think that's the point of the interaction between Dr. Ford and the tech that had covered up the host. Dr. Ford would tell you exactly that their feelings aren't real within the narratives because "they only feel what we tell them to feel" or whatever he said.
With regards to Delores, there were a few times where there would be a "glitch" in the screen and then something would change. I initially thought it was letting the viewer know that the timeline was changing or something, but then I wasn't quite sure.bobinator said:

Like someone else already said, I think the one committing suicide was its core code saying it couldn't kill a human and overriding whatever part of the code was going haywire.
A few things that jumped out at me:
The part that I was thrown by was the flies around the bodies. Do the bodies actually decompose?
When Rebus said "your boyfriend isn't here to protect you this time," or something to that effect, he was referencing the meeting in the street from earlier in the day, but it seemed to trigger Delores realizing she's gone through this many times before. I just thought that was weird.
I didn't pay enough attention, but I wonder if in regards to Wyatt's men, if only guests can shoot them. I couldn't tell if the girl with them hit any of them or not, but that would be an interesting narrative twist in the park if the hosts could only help you up to a certain point, then you're on your own.
Ford says that after the first year, their hosts were passing turing tests. so, if a human being can't tell the emotions aren't real, who's to say they aren't?bobinator said:He says they aren't real, but they seem to be pretty real to the hosts.MW03 said:
