No, I think Ed Harris is a super rich, super nice guy outside of the park, and that this persona that he created in the park is the exact opposite of who he really is, or it's who he really is deep down but pretends to be someone else in real life. I don't think it has anything to do with the park itself as a potential share holder of the company, but I could be wrong.

Nah, he'll find an epic piece of loot, but it'll be no drop and priest only!

I didn't even realize HBO was making a Foundation series... mind blown. I was literally thinking the other day about how this Westworld show thus far has been one of the better screen adaptations of Crichton's work (nevermind that this is a screen to screen adaptation), and that it's too bad some of his other works couldn't have been done in a quality HBO-like series. He had so many great stories that were turned into horrible to average movies to try to make them palatable to the masses. That led me to thinking of how horrible iRobot the movie was, and why couldn't somebody make a quality series out of Foundation.

Not sure if I buy that the old church was buried. But Delores finding her own grave sometime in the past is significant. I guess her and Maeve have both been awakening/becoming aware for a long time while still being stuck in their loops and having their memories erased.

When the lady mentioned the board members descending soon, I immediately thought about them arriving on a different moon or planet where Westworld is located. That and the fact that the employees rotate in and out not unlike a military deployment lends me to believe this to be the case.
One thing I'm curious about is the mention of Orion's belt. Thor's brother mentions that there are three stars in Orion's belt rather than four. Is that a clue that they aren't on earth, so the sky is different? If so, is the security guy just thinking of the sky from earth when he makes the comment?
As far as Delores and the gun goes...she pulls it from the drawer and then closes it. When she reopens it, it's gone. Later she pulls it from the hay to shoot Trevor. I assumed that she remembered something and realized that keeping it in the drawer wasn't going to help much. She needed it out in the barn, so she hid it there.
As far as the rest, I have no idea, but I'm loving it.

I think it's interesting that Ford's new story line includes figurines and drawings of the men that come in and do the clean up after the hosts die. Not sure what the tie in is going to be, but it's almost like Ford is acknowledging that the awakening is happening and is either fostering it or attempting to squash it by using the story to manipulate the hosts.

Interesting to note that the hosts can hide things from humans (compartment underneath the floorboards).
Also, Thandie Newton is better in this than all her other acting roles combined. That is a goddamn miracle.

Ed Harris is obviously rich enough to go to a park for 30 years that charges 1.2 million per week. He runs a foundation that helps sick children. It saves some dude's sister's life.
...but now he's on vacay. And in Westworld, we don't help little kids, we murder them.

I'll have to watch the scene again but i dont think it was the same gun, i thought she grabbed the guys gun that was dragging her into the barn, he looked down at his holster when she pulled it.
