I'd like to know what kind of world this is set in. If there is the technology for these androids, wouldn't it make a lot more sense and money to use them for military, factories, sex slaves etc., than to use them in a Wild West Park? There must be something else going on, that this technology is only used in this park.

Who says they arent? This show focuses on the park...thats the device for the premise. That doesnt mean they wont touch on it later, though.

I prefer that they don't touch on it, I only want to see what's going on in the park not the rest of the world I prefer that to remain a mystery

I watched the original as a kid and loved it. Yul Brunner fucking shit up! Hope there will be an homage to that at some point...

Yul was gangster as fuck. Probably the only Soviet actor who became a beloved American movie star which was impressive considering the cold war propaganda at the time.

He's the only thing I remember about the movie, I don't remember the plot at all just remember his iconic face.

Well, it just seems weird for people to pay $40,000/day if the technology is everywhere. Kinda like Jurassic Park.

We dont know if its everywhere and what would it look like just killing androids on the way to work in the middle of Manhattan? The idea here is that you are basically in a real live game of Red Dead Redemption...where you cant DIE. Everything and anything goes...no rules. There are plenty of rules in the "real world".

Everywhere as in I buy a sex slave android for home. Or I have an android as a maid, etc. etc,. That's why I said this technology must be limited to the park, or maybe other parks (future world), just the reasoning behind limiting this amazing technology to the park is strange to me.

Great show I'm really into the universe & lore they've been hinting at so far.

I have a hard time sympathizing with the mcpoyle brother they cast as a "good guy" tho lol

Also I'm mad they went a whole episode without showing the monolith that came out of the ground in the previous episode.

So Ill have to watch it again, but can anyone tell me why those two techs are letting Maeve negotiate anything?
Why not just unplug her battery?
I am both fascinated and annoyed with that story tonight.

Yeah wtf? I didnt get the line of negotiation there at all. And how is Maeve not more freaked out by the discovery that she is what she is???

I think the asian tech is just baffled that this could even happen and the other dude gets played between wanting to fuck her, not wanting to lose his job and/or if he snitches, she'll play the game and shank him next time she wakes up.

Plus she did freak out and glitched out but dude fixed her.

was not expecting the bernard twist they got me with that one

That was the one thing I got right, just had that sense about him from the get go but they did a good job by having him bone the executive broad and have a relationship with her, as well as his back story of his dying child.

I didn't think he'd be such a sav though! Knocked that bitch out cold.

I also think Bernard is Arnold, or better put an Android version of Arnold than Ford created after his death.

There are so many other questions too.

Good news bad news - second season was picked up by HBO, but it won't return until 2018.

Thought it wasn't pretty clever by them on how they dropped the big realization moment that Bernard is a Host and it was set up by a previous episode. When we first saw Bernard at Ford's secret house, Ford seemed to appear out of no where and snuck up on Bernard. Then in this latest episode, we see how that was - Bernard was unable to perceive the door. Ford didn't simply appear out of the darkness, he came out of the door that Bernard was programmed not to see. So when the executive broad says What's in the door and Bernard says What Door, that's the moment we truly begin to know. And it was some nice trickery by the director (from Reddit thread):





Another little thing that I overlooked but saw in a recap, was any Host can and does record every conversation. Hector being a sex slave for the other executive broad was really Ford recording every single conversation they have, maybe he can even see it. That's how he knew about the "blood sacrifice" remark.

Some reddit theories here probably got the rest of rhe season down here, if anyone is interested, makes a lot of sense to me:
I truly think I've just figured out the rest of the season (SPOILERS) : westworld
