For once,Westworldis giving us more answers than questions.
Of course,WestworldbeingWestworld, all of this action still left us with a few head-scratchers.
Lets get started, shall we?
What is Fords grand scheme for the host clones?
Remember how William said the same thing again and again with James Delos to test his fidelity?
So thats anotherfan theoryconfirmed, but Fords motive is still not completely clear.
To what end was he creating copies?
Did he want a form of immortality for the rich and famous, like Delos?
Is this the same scheme as the 70sFutureworldsequel, in which politicians and leaders were being replaced by hosts?
Or is it something else entirely that we havent even considered yet?
What does the episodes title mean?
Perhaps because of how Charlotte almost literally takes apart Bernard to find Peter Abernathys location?
And Dolores taking apart her father to get whats inside his head?
How long will Ford stay inside Bernards mind?
But how long will Ford remain?
Its interesting that we dont see him in the scenes with Charlotte when she is waterboarding Bernard.
Has Ford left by then?
And if so, has someone else taken up space in Bernards head?
Why cant Maeve control every host?
Its intriguing that Lawrence cant be controlled by Maeve, either through her mind-control superpower or through verbal commands.
What happens to an awake host that prevents her from exerting control?
At least more than Lawrence was.
What is in the Valley Beyond, and how does it relate to Fords plan?
So, whats there and where is it?
And what will happen if everyone arrives there at once?
How many Bernard hosts were made?
The scene when Charlotte discovers the skeletons of defunct Bernards in his closet is awfully terrifying.
How many times has he been rebooted in a different host?
And why were so many of those previous Bernards damaged?
Is William dead?!
That cant be the end of the Man in Black, can it?
Gunned down by Lawrence in the desert?
And yet, he was most definitely shot.
What if William is a host already, a fabricated version of his real-world self?
Even if not, he could easily be made into one now.
Does the destruction of the Cradle mean every host is mortal?
If so, how does that affect Teddys future?
If the backups are gone for good, then the hosts cant be revived anymore.
Think about it: If Dolores did decide to kill Maeve, she would have literally never come back.
But whats the implication for the rest of the season?
Theres no Teddy backup to reboot him again.
Unless, of course, Ford put in a fail-safe to his fail-safe.
Would you put it past him?
