Ramin Djawadi is up with Hans Zimmer in GOAT status to me. I feel like running through a brick wall right now.


Edit to add the link.

Wow. Maybe the best 10 minutes of TV this year at the end.
Just, wow.

So it's Delores Mk1, Delores Mk2 mod1, Delores Mk2 mod 2, Delores Mk 3, Delores Mk 4 versus the world.

And the mirror imagery from Ep 3 was pointing to copies the whole time. Glad we got an awesome reveal in at the halfway point.

And Maeve vs. Sato would make it appear that this is in the real world and not a simulation.

Yup. And Serac referring to the nuke in Paris confirmed it as well, IMO.

Alt Shift X with a livestream if you can't get enough -

Thanks for posting and saying the city name. 4 m/o started screaming during that scene.

That was great. Loved the way they set a mystery they could have dragged out the whole season, and were just "nope her it is let's move on"

My only question is if Maeve is playing the long game. In season one she got her powers by getting killed and having the techs power her up. Maybe she lost on purpose so Serac would have to give her more power. (Or maybe Delores did kick her ass, but the result is the same and she gets a full in terminator body for next episode)

Dolores must've had a hell of a head start to get Sato/Musashi to make it all the way to a mob boss of the Yakazi.

So we've got:
1. Dolores presumably with the pearl from Halores
2. Charlotte with a Dolores pearl
3. Connels with a Dolores pearl
4. Sato/Musashi with a Dolores pearl
5. Bernard with the red pearl
6. ?

So we've got one other pearl out there (Halores left with 5 and had the one in Hale).

Also, why is Stubbs drinking beer and Maeve drinking sherry? Do hosts get drunk?

Karate is a lazy plot device. Hope they don't do that all season.

She must have the Abernathy pearl. It's got the encryption key. And that file was to big to carry in her own head without getting ****ed up.

So why would the yakuza boss look exactly like the host from shogun world?

Did Delos hold a contest where the winners would have a host modeled after them and placed in the park?

What is the pin in the neck for - did I miss that? Hale put it in Ed Harris and it's referenced in next week's episode with Aaron Paul.

Another implant that lets Delores access their minds? Maybe William wasn't hallucinating at the end. Maybe he really was talking to Delores.

There is clearly some super network that Maeve was tapping into to control machines. Maybe Delores can do the same to control people.

If it's the same purpose of getting the banking guy's blood she needs his blood for a step of authentication to access accounts. That said, Dolores took a lot more just to have 20 minutes to access Dempsey's bank account.

Oh and why did the Hale body have such a hard time meshing with the Delores clone pearl? The other bodies seemed ok, and that body was already Delores before?

I only have one question...

HOW IS THIS SHOW SO DAMN GOOD???!!!

Four episodes in, and I feel like I've watched four incredible movie-quality sci-fi films.

Just... wow.

We're halfway done, and this is on pace to be one of my favorite seasons of television ever.

Also a timeline question. We've already seen Hale telling the board she wants to take the company private and having Williams votes from an AI proxy.

So was everything in tonight's episode before that?

It implies that she can't manufacture pearls, not that she can't copy host programming *to* a pearl.

Either way, bet accepted. In the age of social distancing, we can still handshake virtually, right?



Oh, and...

The "you belong to me" line is what made me think she copied her pearl and what steered me away from Abernathy and Teddy. If that theory is right it'll be interesting to see how they handle the actual reveal.
Looks like they handled the reveal pretty damn well...and quick!

I think the order is the same as it was presented in the show:

Hales says to take company private, AI agrees.
Assistant figures out that the minority shares are one big conglomerate share.
Hales then goes to get the real Man in Black on board to get remaining minority holders on their side.

No. Taking the company private is no longer an option. That ended upon the discovery that Serac bought a majority of shares. So Charlotte needed to have William committed in order to take over his shares. Now that she has control, I'm assuming the plan shifts to somehow convincing the board to take on Serac, though I'm not quite sure how.

I'll tell you this much... I love the twist. And that this story is going to be about what makes up an identity. If you can just copy Delores over and over, then there is no humanity to Delores. But, if you take Delores, then go place her in other bodies handling other events and experiences, do they develop into new people separate and distinct from THE Delores? If so, then are the real?

Fascinating. Can't wait for a Delores copy to double cross THE Delores.

But she was actually there to send him to the loony bin. The board meeting was a ruse to get him in the car.

Exactly. Very nature vs. nurture. Such a cool direction to take it. This is literally and figuratively the mother of all character arcs.
