Something about the intro music always sounded familiar to me and today I finally caught it! If you’re familiar with UK garage music, Artful Dodger have a song ft Lifford called ‘Please don’t turn me on’ that literally has the exact reference section 😃

To catch it you have to listen to the original, the remixes don’t have it included.

Is there a FAQ for this group?

Just watched the scene after the first saloon heist, when Elsie walks over to Dolores, who is hysterical because Teddy was shot during the heist. Before she shuts Dolores down, Elsie says "Soon this will all feel like a distant dream.." but Elsie knows better than anyone that the hosts get their memories wiped at the end of the day.. so she knows that wouldn't be the case. Dolores wouldn't remember any of it. Was this foreshadowing of her freedom?

Just a head up for my fellow fans, tubi is playing all episodes of westworld on their 'watchlist' channel. It's not available on demand, so the episodes are scheduled, like cable.. but if your like me and had to resort to watching YouTube clips ever since they took Westworld off Max, this is awesome.

Who is the actress? I'm not good with remembering names

I know I would have loved it a huge open world and you could do all the adventures they do in the show and maybe more backstory on things..... Would have been fun to fight Maeve, Dolores, or William as the Man In Black. I think that would have been fun.

You could start the game as normal as a park visitor and use the hosts just like people do on the show but after each visit they change till they become hostile, maybe on the 4th or 5th visit as it's a game to give you a time constraint.

Do you think this would have made for a great video game?

The story of season 2 is so.... "bizarre" with William during the whole season. I have a feeling in my "bones" that some stuff in season 2 with William are really season 2 (the aftermath the riot of hosts), and some are season 5 new Dolores simulation of westworld.

I believe the little girl (Lawrence's daughter) is Dolores talking to him.

I think the main plot of the whole show is to see if humanity is really bad if you give them a place where they can do everything wrong without consequences. This place made William mad and he turned into the nihilistic Man in Black.

I think Dolores is going to do MANY SIMULATIONS hoping that in one of them, MIB stay a white hat, which prove to her that humanity can be saved.
The simulation we see in season 2 are one of them , and the post credit scene is a failed one. Dolores took William's daughter apparence to do fidelity more and more , and she believe that at his core, William is good.

I even think the whole purpose of season 3 was when we saw William being "good" (in a ... strange way) by wanting to destroy Delos at the end and in the post credit. That's why Dolores put him in asylum. To reflect himself.

Season 3 even teased a very dark past for MIB (molested by his father? Like he wanted to escape reality, with books and then the parks).

I expect if Nolan really does the final season, that everything will "look like" season 1 with actors returning and even why not Aaron Paul in it.
I don't know if you saw Lost but they did that "redo" thing with season 1 and season 6 and the game was to check the differences.

I'm watching season 1 for the 10th time in 3 months. Every time I watch, it feels like I am watching it for the 1st time, especially when Ford comes on the screen.

The intro is a metaphor right? A metaphorisch for the mechanisation ans the slowly becoming concious of the ai thats why the piano doesent come to a Harmonic ending right? Because the host decides to stop but the programming still finishes the Song. Iam still in season 2 so pls no spoiler iam on Episode 1

Hello! I watched years ago and went back to rewatch and can’t believe it isnt on Max anymore, can someone please let me know where its streaming. I havent had much luck looking, thanks!

AND WOW this is the most amazong thing i habe ever seen in my life. Vant wait for season 2 hope it is as good as the first one

Did Ford plan all of this? Because the pieces are slowly Falling into place. And i have to ask is this all fords plan?

I was watching the extras on one of my disks they showed a scene of Bernard talking to Dolores and she was sitting but it was an older version of her and you could see all the wires and bits. Trying to work out where that is in the series because I don't remember it.

Spoilers all seasons.

This has been discussed here ad nauseum, but I need to repeat is just for the sake of rounding this out.

I think for all of season 2, William is in the future simulation Dolores creates. Relevant clues:

1. The season post credit scene where they tell us that

2. The numerous times robot-boy-Ford and Lawrence’s daughter break character to say “This game IS for you” “If you’re looking forward, you’re looking the wrong way” etc.

3. The way he goes insane at the end of the season, just like an awakened host questioning their reality

On that last point..we’re originally thought that human William has just lost his mind in response to killing Emily, and while that’s still possible, it doesn’t reconcile with points 1 and 2.

SO LET’S TALK ABOUT EMILY AND SEASON 5 (RIP) SIMULATION

At the end of season 4, Dolores states that she is recreating the park as a simulation in an attempt to steer both hosts and humanity in a different direction so they won’t destroy each other.

This sub has speculated that this goal would be helped if things had gone differently for William (and Arnold etc but let’s stick to William). William is an important part of both the park’s and the world’s future.

While I would have loved to return to young William and have Dolores make some adjustments at that stage of his life…

I also think we’re seeing the adjustments made by the Simulation to older William in season 2

See point 2 above. The other hosts are clearly trying to steer William in a different direction than the first time he went through all this.

Which brings me back to Emily.

Now that I think about it, it is really weird and coincidental that Emily would show up to the park and try to save her dad at that moment. William isn’t wrong about that. So I posit the following:

Emily wasn’t actually there the first time he went through this irl. She was added as an adjustment to William’s loop to see if it would change his ending. He fails in this loop of the sim because he kills her, and still ends up as a bad dude

Points against:

1. We see Emily at the Raj.
2. We see Emily with Stubbs after she got to Westworld when they were both kidnapped by the tribe

Counterpoints:

1. Why the FUCK would Emily go to one of Westworld’s parks after her mom killed herself over the footage of William’s depraved behavior in the parks? She has the footage. She’s seen it!

Like I know everyone grieves differently, but it’s just a WEIRD move for someone who claims to not have been to the parks in years because she hates them.

ALSO!! Emily could have coincidently been at a different park when everything went down, and she could have died there! Her escape was pretty unlikely in its self.

OR!! We see host’s fictional backstories all the time, played for the audience as if they’re really happening. Maybe this is just SimEmily’s backstory for being there.

2. There’s no reason other hosts in the sim wouldn’t come upon Simily. Stubb’s is also an unreliable narrator. He’s also a host. And it’s at

that point Emily’s motivation changes. She goes from “get me the fuck out of here” to “I don’t plan on going anywhere”… and she runs off to save her dad.

And my last point….

Emily claims to be at the park to save her dad from killing himself. She puts herself in a position of great danger to do this. And not just save him physically by begging him to go to the beaches to get rescued. They have this whole heart-to-heart, very much in an attempt to save him from his guilt.

Doesn’t that seem like the actions of a simulation who is trying to put William on a better path?

Was William ever concerned about serac going after his company? I remember him telling Charlotte that they gave him a taste of what Delos does & that he was coming for the rest. Did they ever meet?

Season 2 implied that she wanted to wipe out humanity, but in season 3 it’s revealed that she actually wanted to free them from Serac’s machine. It would have been interesting to actually see her change when it comes to humanity and it being worth saving

I mean our actual world. When you consider the in-world objectives of different characters within the show, which character(s) got their objective in our real world when it comes to this show: William or Arnold?

Since starting my rewatch one thing that has bugged me since the first time a little bit. The time jumps, Opening episode of season 2 has Bernard conversation with Dolores but what happened to all the people the robots killed at the end of season 1? Are there any series regulars that died as well? I know they jump around with time a lot here, and I noticed that the first time too and it bugged me even then, but is there a consistent timeline anywhere with events in order?

I’ve seen that like a lot of shows Westworld had a pretty mixed ending. Is it still worth watching? Or perhaps is it worth just watching the first two seasons?
