    Easily one of the best episodes since season 1

    I loved all the scenes, everything unfolds perfectly and recalibrating all the pieces of control in for the non hosts! Today was mixed for me and Westworld hit the spot. Ed Harris is magnificent, so is Tessa Thompson, and Evan Rachel Wood all should be praised! I think the series is still great even though some episodes are just pretty good where as others are masterful.

    That was actually a good one

    Been waiting to see if the writers of Westworld could give us an episode that was truly clever and intelligent since the first/second season. This episode definitely delivered, couldn't stop watching. Every scene was engaging and revealing. Let's hope they keep it up with the final episodes.

    "Humans are so bound to what they hear they'll never understand what they don't"

    This show just gets me thinking about human nature. We can practically use this show as a material to teach philosophy. Can't believe there are only 3 episodes left.

    "You're a god."

    Very good stuff, really like seeing where Christina's story has developed and am excited to see where it goes in the rest of the season. Glad that Evan Rachel Wood has been given something to do too since she's such a great actor. I'm really enjoying the Charlotte Hale and Man in Black scenes, really looking forward to seeing where it all leads. I still have a blast with Westworld, and Season 4 continues to be entertaining, strong episode!

    Clarity and confusion

    This show, unlike any other in memory, has the unique capability to make you feel like you're starting to understand, while still making you question the nature of the plot and what you believe. Seasons 2 and 3 were a bit disjointed (while still enjoyable). What sets seasons 1 and 4 apart is the cohesion between clarity and confusion. Magnificent episode.

      At 52 minutes in Christina sees the black door that wasn't visible moments before Emmett tells her the "closed system" is everywhere. The hidden door is a rewrite from S1 when Bernard doesn't see the hidden door at the off site lab in the frontier house.
