What we know and do not know

HBO

the Westworld Confusion Index is your guide for what we know, what we know in a way, and what we do not know Westworld, one of the most puzzling shows on television. We'll make mistakes, surely, because we rarely know what's going on or why (and every time we think we've understood, they'll change it), but we'll try to have at least as many jokes as we do. Errors. This is the best we can offer. And it's gone.

They should not have let the bull robots so close to Maeve

There are almost certainly more important things to focus on this episode. Many of them. Someone opened a portal to robot paradise, for the sake of God, and it was perhaps the third most important thing that happened in the extension of the final 90 minutes. But let's start with the bulls, partly so that I can display this GIF and partly so that I can point out how negligently it was neglected that Delos's human employees leave a number of lifeless hosts, including some were bull robots. , close to Maeve, a host with the power to control the spirits and actions of other hosts, which humans knew because they just harvested that power to put it in Zombie Clem like 30 minutes earlier.

It's as if no one has ever seen a superhero movie. When you catch a villain – not that I would call Maeve a villain in itself, but I stay with me – who possesses mental control powers, you lock them in a special cell suspended in the air in a huge impenetrable empty silo .

But maybe you do not have an impenetrable silo. This is fine. Disappointing, but good. At least keep it away from bull robots. I mean, Jesus Christ. Huge error not forced.

Dolores lives

Have you seen Charlotte's cunning coming? I admit it: I did not do it. I thought Dolores was not dead because Dolores is now the most important character in the series and because very few people in this series "die". (More information later) But I was waiting for Dolores to open her eyes and start slaughtering Delos-types. I thought it would have something to do with the thing where she turned into Luke Cage when William was trying to pull her out of the school, take balls and get out of bed. be generally unsuitable

Nope. Bernard – with the help of Ford, which he now hallucinates, which is normal and normal – made a fast robot Charlotte and had the real Charlotte killed by Robot Charlotte and then put Dolores' brain into Charlotte's body and bingo bingo Charlotte is Dolores now. Or rather, it was Dolores. Charlotte escaped to the island with the help of Stubbs (more on him in a minute, too), with a bag of pearls on his person, and seemed to have put back in his original body to the end.

Busy day for Dolores, the man.

We had a secret tear in the universe and that leads to robots paradise

Climb if you desire on my call the lush green paradise "robot paradise", but it has been described by Virtual Logan as "a virtual Eden", and as the hosts crossed, their lifeless corpses flopped on the ledge in the flooded valley, which looks a lot like a life after death. Go back and watch this whole scene, from them walking to the tears at Zombie Clem bringing chaos on horseback and mute it and playing "Crossroads" by Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. It will make sense.

Whatever it is, nice stuff here. Westworld has not really been filled with happy endings so far, so if we never see Ake or Maeve's daughter again, it's cool to know that they cool down in the robot paradise with people who are close to their hearts.

Against all odds, Lee Sizemore died as a hero

Lee Sizemore spent almost two full seasons being a weasel. He moaned and whined and drank so much that he was urinating on a balcony inside the Delos establishment in front of his boss and his colleagues. He did not bring a single useful skill to the table after the revolution and was responsible for Maeve getting shot and captured. He was just the worst. I liked him somehow.

Which brings us to the reason why I refer to him in the past. My guy decided to be a hero. He sacrificed himself so that Maeve and Hector could go away. And he had to give the great martyr speech that he originally wrote for Hector. Could you, perhaps, suggest that letting a robot take these bullets would have been the smartest game, or that a high-ranking Delos figure would have blocked the security forces with words or a wrong direction or another shot in a lead tornado like Scarface? You could. Later. Let Lee do that for a week or two.

Things will become real

As I understand it, and I'm at least 60% sure that I'm doing it, the following things are true

• Dolores and Bernard are out of the island and in the real world, in the facility that Arnold was rebuilding at the beginning of the season
• The "pearls" Dolores – while Charlotte – came out of the island illegally will allow her to create new robots in the war that she plans to fight against humanity, which I chose to believe that she will be a new Teddy
• They have a robot making machine in the establishment, which I suppose is how Charlotte made the new Dolores and Bernard
• Dolores has acquired almost all the knowledge in the world thanks to Virtual Logan and the library of hosts
• Dolores says this to Bernard: "You will try to stop me, we will probably die, but our species will have survived."

So here is. No idea where that's going. Should be wild, though. I hope there are tons of scenes where Dolores struggles to make sense of the real world, like a robot Encino Man.
