• Bernard. We don't know how long he was there, maybe 11-14 days maybe 1-2 hours. Who knows. I'm not sure they were whisking him to some xecution camp. They are soldiers and had orders to kill all robots I suppose. He wasn't one as far as they knew and just kinda tagged along.
• I don't think his arm was in a sling or whatever by the finale - in the tuxedo at the party. But I could be wrong. Who knows maybe they have some special medical bone healing tech we did not see. TBD.
• The whole DNA ting seems like it's a big part of the season 2 plot - would not expect it all to be answered right away.
• Charlotte, Maeve and Delores... I think that's a big part of this seasons story and you are left not knowing intentionally.

lmao well no kidding. I wasn't using my overall plot questions as 'dings' against the episode. Sorry if that's how you interpreted my post. Wasn't my intention.

In the season finale last year, William was able to use his hand, but his arm was hanging limp. He was then shot in the other arm by Wyatt's army. That was the last we saw of him. Hopefully they will explain how he lived past an attack of 30 people with guns and bows when he has at the very least a dislocated right arm and a maimed left.

I'm betting that his scenes take place even later than Bernard being rescued by the boat.

Although I'm assuming the tools they use to work on the hosts works on humans too, so I could see recovering from those wounds not being that big of a deal anymore.

Except at the end the head guy said that the hundreds of guests still in the park are his top priority.

• Why were they taking guest's DNA?/How does that even work? I don't understand how guest dna would be acquired via a Hosts 'brain'? Unless i misinterpreted that scene.

I think this is a prequel to Altered Carbon

For what it's worth, the skyline in the those city shots is 100% Los Angeles. I don't know if they'll actually treat it as LA and not just a generic, "mainland" city, but it's intersting nonetheless.

---

Is it the main land real world or another park? My money is on another park.

---

My hope too. One park could be 2018 LA. That would be excellent.

---

I like this scenario more, 2018 LA or not, as it makes way more sense (as another part of the park). Everyone at that party freezes, something that was in the very first S2 trailer and had me scratching my head even then, if it was actually outside of the park.

Can we not give this particular plot thread time to breath? Good gosh.

Remaining Season 1 Questions:

- Who was behind trying to write Maeve to the mainland? I thought for a second we had that answer, and it was actually the group trying to steal the IP and DNA material, but it worked out that it was Abernathy they were trying to sneak off.

- Did Ford intend for himself to be murdered? You have to think yes, but then there was a bit of dialogue when they found his body about how he had "written" it only to have Bernard suggest that maybe Delores had done it of her own free will. That drew a scoff, but it's a interesting point. Delores killed Arnold because Arnold wrote it that way with the Wyatt program. Was there any wiggle room for Delores to decide not to kill Ford in the same manner? Could she have decided not to do it after all?

---

• I think it was clear that Ford wrote the code into Maeve as a distraction to Dolores' journey 'into the center of the maze' (aka - becoming conscious). The fact that Maeve went against her programming to get off the train was an unintended consequence of her becoming 'conscious.' Abernathy was always the goal; in the last episode of S1, Charlotte tells Sizemore (the ******y script writer) to go take care of 'something' and the next scene we see him is at the empty warehouse where Abernathy's host was being stored.

• Dolores killed Ford 100% as a choice of free will. She wasn't following any program at that point and was shown to be hearing 'her own voice' (which was the final step to becoming fully conscious). Bernard used the 'these violent delights have violent endings' as the 'kill code' when Dolores shot him. Ford didn't use that phrase specifically because he wanted Dolores to decide to shoot him.

• Delores mentions that she 'remembers everything' and hinted at some previoius knowledge of the outside world when questioned by Teddy. I definitely now believe that Dolores' outside the park encounter might have been part of some sales pitch to Delos. (thus why we see a young william and Logan appear in the trailers). I have a feeling that Anthony Hopkin's character used their display of human like interactions to perhaps pitch westworld? Not sure how those timelines match up.

---

Corrected above that Arnold used the phrase to trigger Dolores in his own killing. To add some confusion, just before Dolores kills Ford, Bernard utters the same phrase. Did it trigger her that time? I don't think so but it does instill a modicum of doubt.
