It's an impossible equation, and if you want your calculator to divide by zero error, punch it in and watch what happens. That's part of the premise of this episode, which returns us to Westworld, excuse me Naziworld. Or actually French resistance world. We know that BernArnold was going to go back to Westworld, this episode gives us a clear picture on what reentry into the Park would look like. At least if you are going to sneak back and go to the old cabin where Ford had you kill Theresa. And where all of your previous host bodies are stored...
Including one host that we discover is a host that we never knew was a host, but we suspected it from the last episode of season two, as Dolores was using a host shaped like Charlotte Hale to escape, while smuggling out about five or six other host control units. Some of the people who worked at Westworld have cameos in this episode...
And of course Maeve is in the new "war world", which actually doesn't exist, or does it? So when you are trying to figure out what is real or not, that's when you punch in "The square root of -1" to bug up the works. Sidenote: "the square root of negative one" refers to imaginary numbers used in rectangular to polar coordinate conversions, which are basically used in electronics to design crossover filters for speaker cabinets, but it can be used for many other things. It's basically a way to represent an electronica circuit on an XY axis where there are both negative and positive numbers. Isn't that fun? (actually, it is...)
This whole episode is a conundrum. This is why I loved season two, but the level of insanity has been trebled in season three. Meanwhile, Rehoboam is keeping tabs on anomalies in the world, and guess where this episode's anomaly occurs? We get a possible physical location of where Westworld is. I wonder if I could look it up on Google earth? I'm not even finished watching the episode, I had to stop and react. This is why Maeve has always been my favorite host. And she gets to reconnect with Lee Sizemore, of a sort. More to come, maybe...
Look for a reference to Game of Thrones, a big reference, although not as big as it was in the last episode of that series....
