– But I say we ditch Akane and make a run for Snow Lake. Why should we all get killed over a literal sex machine? Present company excluded, of course. – That machine’s name is Sakura.
It was a good episode tonight even if there were a lot of gut punches. Jeffrey Wright’s performance in particular was great, and they didn’t even give him a Big Moment or anything but he killed it.
– Emily’s fate sucked and I wished it had gone differently. She existed for character development for William and deserved better than that.
– Elsie is left in the middle of god damn nowhere and that sucks. But also being offscreen is probably the safest spot she could be. But also I want to see her in the story. Conflicted.
– Bernard knocking Ford out of him was great but brings up even more questions about what is happening with him(?) in the future.
– I would like Maeve back fully on screen soon. She was the most entertaining person and part of the show this season, so having her just lay there in pain is
– Clementine is back yay! Clementine was turned into a walking robot bomb Nay!
– Teddy’s fate was inevitable. He would never hurt Delores but what she did to him was unforgivable. He was too quiet and conflicted these past few episodes so it makes sense he went out. At least he told her why before doing it, so she knew the repercussions of things. Wondering what will happen next.
william and dolores: kill hosts and humans indiscriminately and say so loudly without giving a fuck. want hosts to wake up but want things their way. are resentful and violent about westworld and struggle about whether to stay or leave
them: ford made them this way
bernard and maeve: help hosts and humans alike. let them choose. just want to get the fuck out of westworld to survive
them: maybe? they’re? the? real? villains?
There are people who read Bernard as a villain????
I know like half my blog now is me lamenting the Westworld
subreddit, which I’m aware is a pathetically hopeless and irrelevant enterprise,
but if I don’t vent I’ll snap and start dropping f-bombs and invective and get
banned. So you have to endure me.
I am peeling my own eyelids off my face at some of the—I kid
you not—“Oh man, I don’t like what they did with the Man in Black, now he
really is a psychotic irredeemable murderous toxic nightmare”—are you

There is still a small but regrettably vocal subset of people
bitching that he and his ilk are not really “bad guys” because the hosts are “just
robots” and—
you know, if they’re not going to listen to me and the 7,000 words
I’ve typed on the guy being a malignant narcissist from day one—not just
face-heel-turn Man in Black, but William, sweet William, who reduced Dolores to
his own narrative prop from the moment she swooned into his arms,DAY ONE WILLIAM—at
least listen to the show, which spent an hour last night telling you he was like this all along. Which is
great. I love that the show is Going There.
What possibly produces this level of dissonance I have no
idea, but if male gamers ages 18-35 are indeed an over-represented demographic
in this community, there’s my prime suspect.
Oh yeah, you laugh. Enjoy whatever dream you think you’re living in. When this is all done, I’m gonna expose your research project, along with you. Everything you are, everything you’ve done, it’s gonna come to light. I’m gonna make sure of it. And when it does, I’m gonna lock you up.
