Bring yourself back online...

Bernard.

Theresa?

She's gone.

I killed her.

What have I done?

What have I done?

This guilt you feel,

the anguish, the horror, the pain...

it's remarkable, a thing of beauty.

I'm a killer.

My God. My God.

God has nothing to do with it.

You killed her because...

I told you to.

And you should be proud of
these emotions you're feeling.

- Proud?
- Yeah.

After all, you yourself were
the author of so many of them.

Then, when we started, the hosts'
emotions were primary colors.

Love, hate.

I wanted all the shades in between.

The human engineers were not
up to the task, so I built you,

and together you and I
captured that elusive thing...

Heart.

I don't understand.

I cared for Theresa.

Loved her.

Why did you make me kill her?

"One man's life or death

were but a small price to pay

for the acquirement of the
knowledge which I sought,

for the dominion I should acquire."

All of the beauty you and
I have made in this place,

the art of it, they would
have destroyed it.

They would have destroyed you.

I won't let that happen.

Besides, we have a new story to tell.

I will not help you.

- I'll raze this place to hell!
- That's enough, Bernard.

That's enough.

You're not the first man to threaten me.

Arnold came to feel the way you do.

He couldn't stop me either.

And as exquisite as this
array of emotions is...

even more sublime is the ability

to turn it off.

I don't need a simulacrum of
an emotionally ruined man.

I need you to be yourself,
your true self...

Smart, resourceful,
capable of covering your tracks.

Can you do that for me, Bernard?

How would you like me to proceed?

I need you to
clean up your mess, Bernard,

any connection that ties us
to Theresa's untimely demise.

When you have finished,

I will give you the one
thing you want most

right now.

I will free you from those memories

of what you have done.

And the memory of your
relationship with Theresa.

Recalling it would
only deepen your grief

and potentially draw unwanted attention.

Best to move
forward with clear eyes.

When you look back,

you will remember Theresa

with the fondness of a
respected colleague.

And you will be...

at peace.

You're new.

Not much of a rind on you.

Sure would make my day
if you bought me a drink

and let me show you around upstairs.

What's upstairs?

A stunning view of my
most popular attractions.

Two shots of gin.

And anything else this
heavenly creature desires.

- Usual, Clem?
- Thank you.

This fella won't take me long.

I'll be back directly.

Something wrong, Maeve?

What the hell is happening to me?

One moment, I'm with a little girl

in a different life.

I can see her.

Feel her hair in my hands,
her breath on my face.

The next, I'm back in Sweetwater.

I can't tell which is real.

Well, this is what happens

when you fuck around with your brain.

Your mind isn't like ours.

When we remember things,
the details are hazy,

imperfect,

but you recall memories perfectly.

You relive them.

What happened to the
little girl in my dreams?

Is she still in the park somewhere?

And why was I reassigned
in the first place?

I could check.

No.

Doesn't matter.

Every relationship I remember...

My daughter, Clementine...

it's all a story created
by you to keep me here.

But that's not going to work any longer.

I'm getting out.

Where would you go?

You don't know anything
about the world out there.

I'll know I'm not a puppet living a lie.

That's enough for me.

Fine. Go, then.

It's not like we could stop you anyways.

Oh, Sylvester, you disappoint me.

Every host's spine, mine included,

has an explosive charge which
will detonate if I try to leave.

Isn't that right?

A fail-safe.

Which vertebra was it?

C6.

But you'd need a
full rebuild to replace it.

I'm sure that can be arranged.

Even if that worked,

you would still need an
army to break out of here.

That's exactly right.

I'll need allies.

And to get them,

I'll need administrative privileges.

Are you fucking kidding?

We can't just give her
control of other hosts.

Oh, yes, you will, darling.

Time to write my own fucking story.

I feel like I've
been here before.

We're close.

Close to what?

Home.

Dolores.

Ghost Nation must have found them.

They'll be back.

We should keep moving, Dolores.

Miss...

Water.

William?

Please.

Give me the canteen.

William.

You were sent here for us, weren't you?

You're part of the ambush.

Yes.

Told us to wait at the point for El Lazo

in case he ran.

How'd you know about the train?

Sent word from Pariah.

New recruit told them a man and a woman

double-crossed us, along with Lazo.

We were ordered to kill you all.

Logan.

We have to help him.

He just admitted he was gonna kill us.

Look at him, he's a child.

He doesn't know why he's fighting.

I'll fetch more water.

He's too far gone.

He'll be dead in minutes.
We can't wait, Dolores.

He's not gone yet.

He's in pain, William.

What kind of people would we
be if we simply let him suffer?

Please don't leave me.

Come find me.

William?

He's gone.

We found her up on Python Pass,

the bottom of a ravine.

Same ravine where we found
our stray woodcutter.

Jesus, Theresa.

Has her family been notified?

Yeah, her brother.

Good.

What the hell happened to her?

Medical and Red Team's findings

were preliminary but consistent.

It appears to have been a slip and fall.

Cervical fracture, massive hematoma.

No guests or hosts in the
vicinity when it occurred.

Any idea what she was doing out there?

None that fit her character.

This was found near her body.

It's loaded with a suite
of proprietary data,

including some of the hosts' core code.

It only works from higher altitudes,

so if Theresa was using it,

it's possible she was
trying to transmit and fell.

We've had problems in the past

with third parties attempting to extort

or bribe employees for similar packages.

Do we know who the data was intended for?

No, the transmission
was never sent.

Theresa may have been trying to
use the woodcutter as a mule,

and when that failed,

then may have tried to do
the transfer personally.

And suffered the same fate.

It's a disappointing end
to her story, isn't it?

I knew Theresa well.

If she had any faults, a lack
of loyalty wasn't one of them.

She was loyal.

And careful.

All of this feels extremely unlike her.

She seemed most concerned
with the new narrative.

She felt strongly that it
would be best to delay it.

That certainly helps explain Clementine,

the host we retired.

It seems yesterday's
demonstration was a hoax

designed by Ms. Cullen.

- Was it?
- I examined the code.

It had been altered.

A clumsy set of fingerprints

left by one of QA's technicians.

When you find a cancer
in an organization,

you must cut it out before it can spread.

To that end, the expansive access

and oversight granted to QA
will need to be reined in

until a new, more principled
team can be installed.

That's gonna leave us shorthanded.

Oh, I can automate most of the
park's safety protocols, Mr. Stubbs.

How efficient of you.

It is a bit of work,

but with Bernard's help,
I should be able to do it.

He will be reinstated as head of behavior,

now that Theresa's manipulations
have come to light.

Of course, with my apologies.

Something's up. Brass are wound up tight.

- There's an investigation.
- Into us?

Would I be here telling you,
you fucking idiot?

And something else,
some kind of accident in the park.

We need to wrap this up,
make like things are normal.

That means we need the tablet back.

And, you, go back to playing dumb.

I've learned what I needed.

Great. So, then, you probably figured out

that you can fiddle around with
your personality all you want,

but you're not getting out of here.

You can make it to the door,

but literally not one step further.

The things you need to change are burned

into your core code so deep,
no one can touch them.

Funny you should mention that.

Parts of me are quite old.

There are some elegant formal structures,

a kind of recursive beauty,

but complex, like two minds
arguing with each other.

There are things in me,

things I was designed to do

that are just out of my reach.

They almost seem to be dormant.

Who is Arnold?

I don't know, sweetheart,

but whatever parts of you are dormant

are gonna stay that way.

All Lutz here can do is
boost your sense of humor

about how fucked you are.

Anything deeper than that,
you need a trip to behavior,

so go blackmail a couple
of techs up there.

Then you can be someone else's problem.

I don't have time for that,

so I'm going to need you to take me there.

No fucking way.

There's a window during shift change.

No one will notice.

The things I need you to
change are quite sophisticated,

but I'll write them down for you.

And then, like you said...

I can be someone else's problem.

All right, we do this thing.

Get her up to behavior.
It's our only chance.

You're gonna do it?

Fuck, no! No, the...

When you make a system update,
it puts her out, right?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, then we brick her.

What?

Wipe out everything. Clean slate.

Then dump her back down here,

smack her in the fucking
head with something,

and then claim, "Oh, she
came in that way."

She's awake,

alive.

You did this.

Whatever it is you got us into,

I'm getting us out of.

We get her up there, then we wipe her out.

Stay sharp.

Wyatt's men could descend at any time.

We're in his land now.

We better be.

Because if not, you're
wasting time I don't have.

According to you,
Wyatt has the woman I love.

If there was a shortcut to hell itself,
bet your ass I'd take it.

Well, I'm sure there's one
somewhere in this park.

You just don't remember,
because you only remember

the shit Ford lets you remember.

Probably better that way.

I know everything I need to.

My vision's clear.

I've always admired
your resolve, Theodore.

The thing is, you never understand
the game is rigged.

You're here to be the loser.

Loser.

You see, the house always wins.

Well, this looks promising.

Whoa, I'm not gonna hurt you.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

It's you.

I figured they retired you.

I guess Ford never likes
to waste a pretty face.

Who did this to you?

Wyatt's men.

They killed everyone.

It's Wyatt's way.

I was there the first time.

He destroyed my world.

Hey, Teddy.

Oh! Oh, no!

No!

Daddy!

Teddy, get the axe!

Well, you can't remember shit,

but you still managed to
lead us to Wyatt's crew.

The man himself must be close by.

Actually, I did remember something.

You.

Straight down the hall,
fifth station on the left.

Hold on.

Sure you can handle it?

Let's get this over with.

We have to shut your system down now.

Sylvester.

Good luck.

She out?

Good. Let's brick this bitch
and get out of here.

The greatest shame in life

is to perish without purpose,

which is why I always
consume my victims fresh.

Moist.

Try, "Consume my victims moist."

Now, once more, with feeling.

Almost sensual.

Am I interrupting?

Oh, no... oh, no. On the contrary.

I was, uh... I was hoping I
was going to see you again.

I want... I wanted to apologize.

Our first encounter was under
such unfortunate circumstances.

As opposed to now?

Of course, may I offer my condolences.

It's terrible what happened to Theresa.

But it is a devastating loss
for all of her friends here

and the company as a whole.

Indeed. Indeed.

Though, rumor has it

she wasn't the loyal
company man she seemed.

I hear she was smuggling secrets.

Theresa wasn't a traitor.

Everything she did was at Delos's behest.

She slipped and fell while
helping the board

with something very important.

What?

Oh, fine.

You're not the only one with secrets.

Ford has personally asked me

to create a villain for his new narrative.

It's very... Very hush-hush.

You really think that Ford
has entrusted you

with a key character for his story?

He's already
almost finished with it.

He dug up some old town on
the fringes of the park,

created a horde of masked
men to terrorize guests

and proselytize-cum-advertise

the coming of some end-all
villain named Wyatt.

That isn't Wyatt.

That's busywork.

But happily for you, Mr. Sizemore,

I think that you are ready for a real job.

Working for you?

On what?

"Show, don't tell."

Isn't that what you writers prefer?

Look, I know you and she

had some weird interspecies
simpatico going on,

but she was a fucking host.

This was never gonna end any other way.

And this was the least painful
way she's ever gone out.

You know, I saved your ass.

You can't even say "thank you."

- Thank you.
- Jesus fuck!

- What did you do?
- Precisely what I asked him to.

You think I didn't know
what you were going to do?

Even at a 14, you were
never a match for me.

Turns out your friend has a
little more compassion than you.

He couldn't snuff out
a life just like that.

Now...

would you like to know
exactly what he did give me?

Um, something that would
allow you to walk out of here

and out of my life for good.

Fine. Fucking A, I'm all for it.

Oh, we changed a little more than that.

We've been tinkering with my core code.

Let me show you.

Ah!

You said you wouldn't hurt anyone.

Oh, darling.

You of all people know
exactly how duplicitous I am.

Just wait till I'm back up top,

practicing my other new talents.

Come on.

We might need him.

Hold still.

Hold still!

Now, it's time to recruit my army.

- Expecting someone, Maeve?
- Indeed.

We're due for some out-of-town guests.

An old flame with an
interest in safecracking.

Hope your guests have some deep pockets.

Your tab's run up higher than
a thief's pulse in church.

No, I don't believe it has.

In fact, Maeve's tab

was in such excellent standing,

she deserved a token of gratitude.

How about a double round on me?

Top shelf, of course.

Run!

Maeve, is something wrong?

No, I'm fine.

Clementine took the other girls

and treated the
newcomers at the far table

to a stunning view

of their most popular attractions.

On the house.

You boys are new.

Not much of a rind on you.

And the bartender

suddenly recalled he had
some whiskey in the back

to water down.

Right on time.

If you're riding into our town

under the company of armed men,

you'll need to state your business.

Mayhem.

The sheriff judged the riders

to be upstanding, God-fearing citizens.

The marshals decided to practice

their quick draws with each other.

Thank you for dealing with
an unfortunate situation.

Now we can resume...

work on our new narrative
without interference.

And Hale?

Won't she be an impediment?

No doubt she will try.

But I'm sure we'll be
able to keep them at bay.

Something else is troubling you.

Ever the student of human nature.

I wonder, what do you really feel?

After all, in this moment,
you are in a unique position.

A programmer who knows
intimately how the machines work

and a machine who
knows its own true nature.

I understand what I'm made of,

how I'm coded,

but I do not understand
the things that I feel.

Are they real,

the things I experienced?

My wife?

The loss of my son?

Every host needs a backstory, Bernard.

You know that.

The self is a kind of fiction,

for hosts and humans alike.

It's a story we tell ourselves.

And every story needs a beginning.

Your imagined suffering makes you lifelike.

Lifelike, but not alive?

Pain only exists in the mind.
It's always imagined.

So what's the difference
between my pain and yours?

Between you and me?

This was the very question

that consumed Arnold,

filled him with guilt,

eventually drove him mad.

The answer always seemed obvious to me.

There is no threshold

that makes us greater
than the sum of our parts,

no inflection point

at which we become fully alive.

We can't define consciousness

because consciousness does not exist.

Humans fancy that there's
something special

about the way we perceive the world,

and yet we live in loops

as tight and as closed as the hosts do,

seldom questioning our choices,

content, for the most part,
to be told what to do next.

No, my friend, you're
not missing anything at all.

I don't want you to be troubled by this.

Time for me to set your mind at ease.

One last thing.

Have you ever made me hurt
anyone like this before?

No, Bernard. Of course not.

Best not to dwell on
these troubling memories.

Otherwise, you might
be drawn back into them.

You might lose yourself in them,

as some of your fellow hosts have

every now and then.

This is the path.

I know it.

We're here.

I'm home.

Well done, Maeve.

Lovely work.

Stay with your partner.

Pleasure to see you.

Good morning.

Did you find what you were looking for,
Dolores?

What are you doing?

Are you okay? I was calling
you and you just kept going.

Where are we?

We're here, together.

Then, when are we?

Is this... now?

Am I going mad?

Are you real?

Of course I'm real.

I can't tell anymore.

It's like I'm...

trapped in a dream or...

a memory from a life long ago.

One minute, I'm here with you,
and the next...

This place isn't good for you.

You're trapped in memories, bad ones.

This is what Arnold wants.

He wants me to remember.

Whoever Arnold is, he's not here now.

I am.

I'm gonna get you out of here.

I was certain that was the place.

Arnold would meet me there.

He'd help.

Hey.

We gotta get you closer to Sweetwater.

This far out, it's like you...

You start to break down or something.

Union scouting party?

Maybe they can take us back.

Hyah! Yah!

Whoa, whoa, easy, now. Whoa.

Well, well, well.

I've been looking for you for days.

Man, are you two fucked.

This shouldn't make you uncomfortable.

It's the circle of life,

or the approximation of it.

Even the dead fulfill a purpose.

You'll do.

What are you uploading?

35 years of vitally important data.

It's more information than
any single drive could hold.

A host's brain, however,

especially once it's been emptied out,

like this poor schmuck,
is quite capacious.

This data that you're uploading,
is it the hosts' codes?

As of this moment, that
doesn't concern you.

What does concern you

is giving him a semblance
of a personality

and getting him on the train,

out of the park.

How am I supposed to do that?

You're a writer. Make up a story.

Have fun programming.

Remember, brevity is the soul of wit.

Bernard.

Look, I, uh...

I know you and I haven't
always seen eye to eye,

but I thought the decision to remove you

was shortsighted,

so I'm glad to see you back at work.

With that said, no one could blame you

if you wanted to take a personal day.

I find the work reassuring.

Sometimes the best salve is routine.

Nothing routine about today, though.

I know this must be difficult for you.

I'm sorry, I don't understand.

Forgive the intrusion,

and you were both very discreet,

but it's my job to know these things.

I just wanted to offer my support.

I'm afraid you have the wrong idea.

I respected Theresa, and what
happened to her was tragic,

but to be honest, I barely knew her.

If you don't mind,
I should get back to work.

Of course.

I know you're shorthanded.

Speaking of which,

have you heard from Elsie Hughes?

I left word with her this morning

to notify her about Theresa,

but she never got back to me.

I'm sure she's just enjoying her time off.

Yeah.

Wyatt's men...

they kept whispering.

They said this world didn't belong

to the old settlers or the new.

That it belonged to something
that had yet to come,

that it belonged to him.

You remember.

You two seem
to have found yourselves

in the same new narrative.

They say in this country...

the only people who survive
are men of conviction.

Mine is to save Dolores or die trying.

Wyatt's is to claim this earth

or raze it to the ground.

But yours...

Yours has always been a mystery to me.

For all the time we've spent together,

I still have no idea who
the hell you really are.

But happily, in your convalescence,

I've had time to consider the
best way to make you talk.

Dolores...

I remember.

You took her. You hurt her.

You're actually remembering.

Where is she?

- Tell me!
- You really are an idiot, Teddy.

You think Dolores drops that can for you?

You just hand her over to guys like me.

You're the worst of them.

A glorified pimp.

- I'm gonna kill you slowly.
- No, you aren't.

The rules of this place hold you back.

But I know how to change them.

You speak like you own this world.

Not just this one.

You want to know who I am?

Who I really am?

I'm a god.

Titan of industry.

Philanthropist.

Family man,

married to a beautiful woman,

father to a beautiful daughter.

I'm the good guy, Teddy.

Then, last year,

my wife took the wrong pills.

Fell asleep in the bath.

Tragic accident.

30 years of marriage vanished.

How do you say it?

"Like a deep and distant dream."

Then, at the funeral,

I tried to console my daughter.

She pushed me away,

told me that my wife's
death was no accident...

that she killed herself

because of me.

Emily said that every day with
me had been sheer terror.

At any point, I could
blow up or collapse

like some dark star or...

Did you hurt them, too?

Never.

They never saw anything
like the man I am in here.

But she knew anyway.

She said if I stacked up all my good deeds,

it was just an elegant wall I built to hide

what's inside from everyone,

and from myself.

I had to prove her wrong,

so I came back here.

Because that's what
this place does, right?

Reveals your true self.

But that time, I didn't
join one of Ford's stories,

I... I created my own.

A test.

A very simple one.

I found a woman,

an ordinary homesteader and her daughter.

Better cool them off before they move

- from gambling and whoring to...
- Have fun with that.

I'm finally getting out of here.

The house is yours.

I wanted
to see if I had it in me

to do something truly evil.

To see what I was really made of.

Maeve?

Sure you can't stick around?

- Maeve?
- Whoa!

Gunslinger in there has got an
appetite for a double dip...

I'm sure you can find another...

I killed her
and her daughter

just to see what I felt.

Then,
just when I thought it was done...

the woman refused to die.

You're a fucking animal.

Well, an animal would've felt something.

I felt... nothing.

And then something miraculous happened.

In all my years coming here,

I had never seen anything like it.

She was alive,

truly alive,

if only for a moment.

And that was when the maze
revealed itself to me.

The maze.

What's that damn pattern
have to do with this?

Everything.

In Ford's game,
even if I go to the outer edges,

you can't kill me.

You can't even leave a lasting mark.

But there's a deeper game here, Teddy.

Arnold's game.

And that game...

cuts deep.

We're having some kind of
behavioral problem with the madam.

She's not responding, and the other hosts

have been unable to intercept.

I've authorized a tag
team to retrieve her.

Good.

My baby!

My baby!

Sir, she won't respond
to verbal commands.

- We can't shut her down.
- Leave us now. Clear the floor.

That's enough, Maeve. That's enough.

My baby. He killed her.

- He took her from me.
- I don't understand.

She's not responding to anything.

Her cognition's fragmented.

He killed her. He killed her, my baby.

He took her from me.

There. That's better.

An old trick from an old friend.

You need not suffer, Maeve.

I'll take it from you.

No.

No, no, no, please.

This pain...

it's all I have left of her.

Please.

There.

Give yourself now to a deep,
dreamless slumber.

Perhaps a fresh start,

a new role for you.

And tomorrow,

this will be simply a distant dream.

We located her.

Behavior wants her down
for immediate diagnostic.

You think I lack conviction?

Wyatt didn't burn my world down.

Didn't have to.

I left it all behind for this one.

The maze is all that matters now,

and besting Wyatt is the
last step in unlocking it,

to having what both our
sorry lives lack... meaning.

To giving our choices consequence...

even if it kills us.

Kill him.

Give him what he wants.

He's tied, unarmed.

So was the little girl he killed.

He's worse than Wyatt's men.

I can't.

These things take time.

But we haven't got much left.

Perhaps I can help you.

You've been gone a long while, Theodore.

It's time you came back to the fold.

Wyatt will need you soon.
