Great episode. Every step of the way you knew what was coming but it was fascinating to see it happen. They were telegraphing that as William's daughter throughout, interesting that they didn't make us wait longer to see their meeting up. Its the kind of carrot writers usually dangle in front of you and make you wait longer to see. Didn't miss Delores.. cool to see Elsie back teaming up with crazy Bernard.

Guess we won't see Logan back.

Well that was one of the best episodes hands down. Didn't want it to stop. It made the last three episodes look really weak.

Finally an episode worth calling "Good". The prologue kind of gave away a lot of what was unfolding and answered some questions before they needed to be, but overall pretty great. If the Lazarus thing wasn't the "weapon" that Delores was talking about, not sure what it is. Though the longer this goes on the more I think that it's something super fucked up like humanity is all dead and everyone is hosts etc. etc.. Hopefully that's not the case.

That was an excellent episode. It actually cleared up stuff and created some interesting questions. While William seems to have soured over time on the Immortality Project. Delos the company clearly has not. Whatever Ford is doing means he did embrace it to some degree. Since he can appear in seemingly any host he wants. Like his comment before Dolores killed him last season, "we just become music."

Who do you think the Human Host mind that Bernard copied belongs to?

so like maybe a week or less. I'd think she'd eat 2 or 3 bars the first day, then day 2 she'd think oh shit, i'm really here on a rock and chained up and eat 1 bar a day and then maybe none, w/ zero water in the fucking desert in a cave she should gone crazy in 3 days, but she seems fine.

Now we gotta ask why does Ford suddenly have a softspot for humans? he ordered Bernard to kill Theresa w/ seemingly zero remorse, he ordered Bernard to goto this secret cave, get some superbrain and kill the all lab techs (humans) inside, and he doesn't mind letting all his toys kills guests for funzies so he can advance his story.

But he spares Elsie?

We can say, maybe it was Bernard subconsciencely saving Elsie, she does seem to be extremely talented and she musta been one of Bernards direct reports

Never watched but was on a list of things I might like. Know what options to watch this without torrenting are? Don't think I have HBO access with my xfinity. (Wifes the tv watcher) On amazon prime by any chance? Been thinking about trying that since netflix keeps sucking and yanking things from my list and otherwise being a bunch of faggy sjw's.

Call Xfinity and tell them you're cancelling unless they can give you first year perks (aka free HBO). Or get HBO Now. Or just pay to add HBO since it's worth it.

So Thanos and Gamora are off for the Soul Stone. Bet that works out well. Also Bernard wants the Soul Stone to become Human again ala Pinocchio. And only Hannibal Lector could create Soul Stones.

Acting is great though. Especially the Death scene. Conflict is so derivative it’s otherwise be a moronic change from the original premise. This is JJ Abrams and company using Crichtons work as a spring board for their normal Lost plotlines.

Seems that William was actively sabotaging Delos' host by telling him his real body was dead. It always seemed that he was completely functional until he got that information. So basically your uploaded mind, no matter how sophisticated, cannot handle the reality of knowing you are dead and are now inside a robot. And perhaps that's the explanation for why Bernard is malfunctioning while all the hosts that didn't have a human consciousness implanted in them seem to be fine with their self awareness. That's an interesting take on it. Physically this "robot cloning" works, psychologically it does not.

I would agree with that except the fact that Delos was twitching and having a hard time pouring cream into his coffee before William would show up. That got progressively better. At first, he poured it over the side of the cup, and by the last go around, he was able to pour it normally into his coffee. That was before any discussions took place.

Good episode though. If I had to watch Delores and her garbage one more time I was just about to throw the towel in.

The worst thing in this show so far was the S2E3 battle. Hopefully they'll somehow make sense of it later on, otherwise oh well. It's hard to make a flawless show.

Last night's episode was fantastic.

Also, I hate to add any fuel to the fire for our ridiculous nitpickers since I love this show, but why isn't MiB's arm broken?

He pulled that medkit out of the wall and fixed himself. When Hector asked what he was doing he said technically cheating.

I went with HBO now. Easier to cancel and reactivate without doing the haggling BS with the cable company.

Elsie.

Also in regards to the souring, etc.
I think this episodes, "looking forward, playing the wrong game, need to look back" is obviously important here too.
Being parents, and having children, and passing the torch was clearly a theme.

I'm a bastard, I dont deserve immortality, my daughter hates me(and is right to do so..)

but needs to look back. at what? Arnold presumably? something else?

Because I don't trust anything in this show until it's been 100% confirmed. And that is a bit of a leap.

That is deeply personal but only to William. Since this whole thing has so far been a very clear construct of Ford's it would make very little sense why Elsie was in a cloned host CPU.

That was for his gunshot wound to the other arm, I believe. Remember Clementine shot him last season, and I think he's been grazed a few times this season as well. Maybe his arm was just dislocated last season? Looked like a straight-up compound fracture to me though.
