Ladies and Gentlemen, we have officially reached the center of the maze!

The season finale of Westworld packed quite a punch, giving viewers the narrative equivalent of whiplash as we tried to keep up with the twists and turns of this climactic loop. Arnold’s tragic demise, Ford’s final vengeful story and the Man in Black’s true identity were all expertly revealed by Nolan and Joy in the last few precious moments of the season. But there are still so many questions left unanswered. What will happen to Dolores and the rebel hosts? Will the Man in Black survive the assault on Escalante? What the heck happened to Elsie and Stubbs?

Join Lee, Caleb and Josh as they debate Ford’s true motives over the past 35 years, theorize about where Season 2 of Westworld will take us, and praise the incredible narrative loop we’ve traveled over the past 10 episodes.

Thanks for hanging with us listeners! See you next year!!
