    Even if she was credited, she's probably be listed as 'Patient' or summat. Nothing concrete.

    CSI's dead. NCIS however, is not. But it might be, in about 5 years or so.

    If there even is an actual implant, that is (Greer implied they didn't put any chips in her anyway). If it's doable, it could probably generate a view like the Sonar Vision in TDK, I suppose.

    The Machine's called Harold 'Father' before. Should I be upset the one with Root's voice didn't call him 'Daddy'?

    Knew the kid was Reese, cause of the press release & set pictures/casting calls. Didn't think much about the street guy, cause neither of 'em match with Fusco & Shaw, look/career wise (Lionel was probably in a blue collar family, & we know how Shaw's dad died).

    I'm not biased to that, tbh.

    White box turns to Yellow.

    In the death montage near the beginning, we see an old woman (if I'm correct) in a hospital bed in her last moments, whose hand 'The Machine' cups. Do you think that could be Root's Mom? They did reference Finch's father & Grace, & showed Reese's dad's funeral, so I suppose that's a possibility. Or it's just a random

    Damn you Marlowe.

    And one of conceits of Westworld, involves robots being killed off & returning with different personalities. Dude probably had way too much fun with this.

    SLOW CLAP…

    There's a nod to all 3 of Nolan's Batman flicks in this episode.

    That 1x03 line was actually written for the Pilot. Goes right to the beginning, actually.

    More than Oliver Queen has for Starling City.

    Take it I'll see you guys on the Westworld reviews (& eventually, the Foundation ones as well).

    Oh, absolutely. Like a cyberpunk take of the hallucination episode last season.

    The show was on a production hiatus when 5x11 was shot, if I remember correctly. Combine that with having the guy on payroll, & it's a lot easier. Much like how Lance Reddick did The Life & Death of Jeremy Bentham in S5 of Lost, when he was a regular on Fringe.

    He is. Plays the best friend to a guy called Logan, there. Cheeky.

    Hope The Leftovers has it the same way for their final batch early next year. Their S2 one was perfect (& could very well have been a series ender), but glad they got more.

    And for Greer's days in MI6 as well. Satellite footage is more than enough for digital reconstruction by an ASI, I suppose.
