    I'd be way more okay with that when reconciling with everything else, but it feels unnecessary when Arnold was already that and we didn't need his presence to portray it. I'd prefer something more simple, One path opens the door for a lot of convoluted and unnecessary bs.

    As far as themes go, spiritualism btfo by that Church scene with delusional people and the Michaelangelo bit. Love that AI stories center around humanist stuff. The suffering being salvation bit was put the most explicitly by Ford. The whole aspect of memory being the foundation of identity and removing Bernard or Maeve's cornerstone defined by the loss of their children would destroy them was neat. Especially considering Maeve's cprnerstone is what drove her to go against her programming and npt escape. Seems she finally reached sentience. Bernard had to forgo his grief for his son so idk how those ideas reconcile. The fact that MIB couldn't suffer made him less human than the hosts, a counterpoint if you will. Lots of stuff to unpack.

    legit gonna need to watch that episode another 2-3 times. the writing was pretty deep and i think to wrap my head around a bunch of what @Charlie Work just stated, and then some, it's gonna take a few spins. this show really was top notch. my greatest regret is opening a dialogue with a friend about a month ago who started to give me his "theories", which i later found he was regurgitating from reddit, which pissed me off because a couple of the big wtf moments were already in my head

    That was absolutely f---ing spectacular. Like GoT level brilliance. It's a pity the middle few episodes were a bit lackluster but that turnaround in the last few episodes was just perfect. Really hope the momentum is carried over into the next season, this could be something big if it's done right.

    2018. Gonna be a long wait. :sad1:

    Stubbs and Elsie we don't know about until then.

    William in Black finally got what he wanted, for the hosts to fight back.

    I wanted to see what Peter Abernathy was gonna do in the finale but I guess we'll wait until Season 2.

    Dolores finally activating the bicameral mind. :rejoice:

    "This world doesn't belong to them, it belongs to us"

    Armistice after the credits. :ohno:

    Ford is gone. :wow2: :mjcry:

    if you look real close when she says "your not one of us", he looks disappointed like "oh... d---"
