- Quotes
Dr. Robert Ford: A greyhound is a racing dog. Spends its life running in circles, chasing a bit of felt made up like a rabbit. One day, we took it to the park. Our dad had warned us how fast that dog was, but we couldn't resist. So, my brother took off the leash, and in that instant, the dog spotted a cat. I imagine it must have looked just like that piece of felt. He ran. Never saw a thing as beautiful as that old dog running. Until, at last, he finally caught it. And to the horror of everyone, he killed that little cat. Tore it to pieces. Then he just sat there, confused. That dog had spent its whole life trying to catch that... thing. Now it had no idea what to do.

Opening Theme Song
If this was indeed the episode in which the showrunners decided to take a big break and re-think the structure of the rest of the season, it showed. Not only was it paced incredibly well, but I honestly feel like this was the most important episode to date for Westworld. Plenty of clues as to who exactly the Man in Black is, as well as developments for Dolores and Maeve in their search for self-discovery. As Ford said, this whole season is really about self-discovery, not just with the hosts. William and The Man in Black (if they aren't actually the same person) are also on journeys of their own.
It's hard to review Westworld week to week because each episode don't give us show changing answers right away; we get little teases here and there as to the endgame, but I doubt we will truly know until last few episodes. With that said, I'm finding the directing, cinematography, writing, and acting all to be compelling enough to keep going. I mean let's face it, watching Anthony Hopkins and Ed Harris in that last scene together should be enough for anyone to be hooked.
