ROBOBABY WATCH 2k18

I knew she was Emily.

Also, I said to Rob while watching; the goal of the Maze is for hosts to gain a soul, the goal of the Door is for William to gain one.

[Psychotic]

Yeah, despite his protestations to Creepy Villager Girl afterwards, William clearly had some sense of empathy to Lawrence and his family and that's the first thing he's felt for any host since OG Dolores.

A really good episode, maybe the best yet. That was like some Black Mirror trout that they did with JD, nice take on immortality through tech. Good to have Elsie back, and smurf knows what is happening with Bernard.

I think part of why William was sympathetic to Lawrence is that Lawrence REMEMBERED him. In this adventure, William has never mentioned a daughter. But Lawrence remembered that he'd told him about Emily at some point.

Yeah, I really enjoyed seeing Elsie again. Other than that it was just an uncomfortable watch. I completely agree with the Black Mirror parallel. The scene with Ed Harris in the bar was just fantastic. Most of everything else didn’t sit well with me. I don’t think I’m as invested as I was with the first season. I kinda like having someone to root for and I’m not really rooting for anyone at the minute. Maybe Maeve... and now Elsie.

[Jinx]

I thought this episode was great, at this season is finally starting to pick up a real narrative (as I knew it would). I'm okay with not rooting for anyone, personally, and that's not really what this show is about. I AM rooting for Maeve, though, even though I think her story is going to end in heartbreak.

[Bubba]

Oh I know that’s not what the show is about. Like I said, I just kinda like to root for someone. There are still some amazing characters in the show. The majority have got multiple levels to their personalities which can be difficult to achieve. The characterisation is fantastic.

Was just able to watch it last night. I knew it was Emily!

And yeah I think he helped and had empathy for Lawrence because yeah he remembered. It makes me wonder how many adventures Lawrence has gone on with him, really.

Elsie being back is great. I was like "YEAH! IT'S ELSIE!" I loved her character. Also Stubbs was captured at one point with emily? What happened with him to get him to the beach? Where is elsie in the future timeline? SO MANY QUESTIONS

[Psychotic]

How long was Elsie out there? She looked pretty damn well!

[Jinx]

How long was Elsie out there? She looked pretty damn well!

Probably only a few days, yeah? The first season only takes place over maybe a week, probably less, it just seems like longer because of how it's laid out. I doubt she's been out there for longer than 5 days.

[Bubba]

I actually googled-image searched... “Westworld Elsie with a long, grey beard”

Disappointing

Read somewhere where someone noticed the dates in the first series vs this one, first season was only 14 days. And the two time lines here are another 14 days apart (right after the shooting of the board and the beach scene)

[Del Murder]

Why did he keep remaking the old man? Who would want to help that guy live forever? Also if you were going to make yourself into a robot, why not make yourself look younger?

This episode was interesting, but it didn't make a lot of sense to me.
