How will that end? And will the result hearken back to the story Dolores told Teddy about her father’s infected herd? In that allegory, Dolores sided with the decision to burn the herd Akecheta would surely try to save it, and hopefully in the season finale, we’ll find out which method is truly righteous. The conflict with Dolores’s army wiped out much of Ghost Nation, but we are still yet to see the troops’ leaders come face to face. He is also the only one who innately understands that, as Teddy put it just before offing himself last episode, there’s no “use in surviving if we become just as bad as them.” The second season of Westworld, among way too many other things, has been about a clash between humans and hosts, but it feels like it will end with a clash between good hosts (Akecheta and Maeve) and an evil host (Dolores/Wyatt). He may be the only one who actually wants to lead them to freedom. He - not Dolores - is the host best equipped to lead the others to freedom. (It’s amazing how beneficial it can be to put emotional weight into a character’s backstory!) Not only is he interesting, complex, and easy to empathize with, but he may also be an important catalyst for the show’s future direction. How will the Akecheta story come to a close?Īndrew Gruttadaro : After “Kiksuya” - but even more so after the profound drudgery of “Vanishing Point” - it has become extremely clear to me that Akecheta is Westworld’s most redeeming quality. In the meantime, give me Westeros World, or give me death. Westworld showrunners Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy have the next few seasons already planned out, so let’s just assume that whatever awaits in the Valley Beyond, the Forge, and all the other cheesily named finale destinations won’t lead to hosts making it out into the real world - at least not yet.
#WESTWORLD SEASON 1 FINALE SERIES#
(If you’re not excited by robot samurai and Bengal tigers, what is wrong with you?!)ĭelos is supposed to have six murder-inclined getaways, and I’d love a glimpse of a fourth park on Sunday night - if only for the series to goad me into checking out the third season. And as derivative and listless as this second season has been, the brief detours to Shogun World and the Raj were a refreshing change of pace. For a show whose ostensibly shocking machinations were pretty much anticipated by Reddit since the second episode - the finale finally revealed that William was the Man in Black in an earlier timeline, while the internet had unanimously agreed on this for more than a month - knowing there was a samurai-themed world to explore opened up an exciting array of possibilities. Miles Surrey : The most pleasant surprise from Westworld’s Season 1 finale was its Shogun World tease. Mars get it in the third season, possibly by implanting Teddy’s body with Ford’s consciousness and making him deliver baroque monologues while doing a bizarro Anthony Hopkins impression. I hope the answer is “no,” and that the Westworld creators can really let J. Kate Knibbs : At first I was going to say that I’d like to know what Charlotte Hale’s whole deal is, but actually I have a more pressing question: Will I ever see my beloved bland-handsome cowboy Ken doll darling James Marsden on Westworld again? For storytelling purposes, it’d be a cop-out if Teddy’s death turned out to be temporary - but does that mean we have to say farewell to Marsden? If the series is going to provide some answers, the last show of the season is the time to do it, right? Here are the questions our staffers hope that Sunday’s episode will answer:
After a season of mystery, reveals, and twists, we still have some questions heading into the Westworld Season 2 finale.
