Official West World Season 2 thread (SPOILERS)

So… looks like Dr. Ford is dead? I mean we saw maggots in his corpse.

Would/could maggots feed on a host? Not sure what they are made of but they don’t age or seem to decompose so I’m guessing it’s not organic. Thus, I presume his mortal body is dead. 2nd episode should be interesting. I think they are going to slip in a time lapse we are not expecting. I’m sure some theory on Reddit has spoilers for the whole season already.

Yeah he’s dead. Who thinks Bernard is on a loop and we are watching a second or third event? And now Bernard has multiple story lines!! And what about Bernard not being able to recognize faces. Bro is this even Bernard we are watching? Maybe they switched his brain…

Finally watched it last night. Now I have to watch it thrice more to understand what I saw.

Watched it a 2nd time last night. I have not read anything about it online but I think you are onto something rawraw. I also think Bernard is on two different timelines.

I can’t help but read, since it’s half the fun. But a couple key things to highlight that I find interesting after reading:

  1. Bernard finishes the guys sentence when they find him on the beach, as if he’s done this before. They didn’t get his glasses or offer any assistance despite it allegedly being two weeks. Theory is they are running him through loops to get Intel

  2. season 1 has a lot of allusions to the flood (even major character names are related to water). This seems to be important this season

  3. one of the side effects of Bernard conditions is that he can’t see faces. The trailer shows Charlotte with multiple copies of Bernard. Those people in the shelter may be Bernard’s

  4. haven’t seen it on reddit, but Dolores said doesn’t look like anything to me when leaving the people in the noose. Ford last season talked about humans not having free will and living on loops. Is she actually conscious?

  5. they emphasize how easy it is to switch minds of hosts. What we are watching may not actually be Bernard but another host posing as him.

  6. it makes us think Arnold is interrogating Delores, but it’s possible Delores is interrogating Bernard for reasons unknown

  7. the maze in the skull seems to indicate a different type of host. The Indians who worship the workers as gods from season 1 may be important. They are the most isolated hosts so likely most likely to awake without detection but may try to defend their gods

  8. teddy is dead in the water

Also some clues like the Delos website are changing after each episode, so reddit will figure stuff out first just because they are watching all the clues not in the show as well

I figured it out.
