I'm guessing that's where Ed Harris lives. He loves the large moon experience.

Kind of on the fence about this myself. The first time we see MiB in episode 1, he seems quite content to revel in Dolores' suffering. Not sure if this is just a ruse though. Hope we find out next week.

Uh, no. She uncovered a memory of Bernard that happened BEFORE the "violent delights" event & IMMEDIATELY AFTER her Cornerstone Memory event.
The event where she met Arnold and Ford happened IMMEDIATELY after and was tied to her cornerstone memory, which is why she remembered it. We don't see Maeve recalling anything…

Sounds legit

So you're saying a host, with the help of some lowly techs can miraculously bump up her security clearance to Ford's level because.. she's very smart?

I'll repeat it again; Maeve only began remembering her "unconscious" experiences AFTER Dolores spoke the trigger phrase to her ("These violent delights have violent ends"). At this point she also began remembering her cornerstone memory, which we find out is normal. This is the ONLY thing that is supported by the…

I understand the need for rational people like yourself to try and fill in the gaps, but there's no shame in acknowledging that the show has left those gaps. Just because it's a "smarter show" doesn't mean it's beyond those flaws.

Glad you have it all figured out, champ.

We're using voice recognition now? So how exactly do you propose Maeve acquired the same level security clearance as Ford? I guess her intelligence went up to 30, so that explains everything.

Maeve was offline in that scene. She had not become sentient back then and could not control her code. Even if by some chance she was able to remember beyond her traumatic cornerstone memory (which has not been shown to be true so far), there is absolutely no plausible way for her to remember that scene.
But let's go…

There are only certain ways to do this. It would seem plausible to have the faces of all host hard-coded into them for this purpose. They wouldn't be able to "smell" each other or sense each other. We're told they're made almost identical to the real thing so they wouldn't be able to differentiate based on appearance…

You are welcome to try but I very much doubt you'll be able to find a definitive answer to your question. To me it seems as though they've worked out the twists and turns, story and character arcs but neglected a lot of the small cogs and details that drive the story from A to B. As I pointed out above these…

How would that work exactly? If the host is not directly looking at the command giver, has his back turned for example or isn't the only host in the room, how would the host be able to distinguish who the command was given to?

We do. Dolores is talking to the real Arnold in episode 3. Rewatch and it will become clearer.

In episode 3, the conversations Dolores is having in that room we saw her come back to this week weren't actually with Bernard, but the REAL Arnold. Re-watching those two critical scenes, it becomes clear that this is the point where Arnold intentionally experimented with Dolores' consciousness before ultimately…

Am I the only one who thinks this show is a convoluted mess? It reminds me a little of Hannibal; it's a sensual experience that's all about the flashiness of what its presenting onscreen at the expense of everything else. Realistically, you neglect the code or don't use it for its intended purpose and that little…

Don't remember the last time I raped or scalped a humanoid at a LARP event..

It's not just about murder. Heated exchanges and fist fights would be rampant and impossible to control or police. Violence and role play don't just stop when all the hosts are dead.

I wouldn't classify the standoff William and Logan had as a heated encounter. Their friendship and dynamic make them all too playful.

Neither the story nor the characters are compelling enough at this point to gauge the attention of viewers. When both are lacking, there is nothing to distract us from nitpicking the faults of the show. I've outlined my objections in older posts (specifically below and in second week's comments) and you are welcome to…
