WESTWORLD Season 3 Episode 5, Breakdown, Theories, and Details You Missed! Who Is The Anomaly? 

it is just blade runner....

Dolores so hot want to touch the hiney

The two differing charlotte recordings. Think about it. That is a big clue, and goes against everything that's being said and shown. The charlotte who's watching that recording is a host. Hosts aren't supposed to be 'in the system'. So how are we seeing two versions of that?

One further thing I wanted to comment on, was all the face masks. Filmed before covid. I suppose it's reasonable to assume that future pandemics and pollution might have expanded the trend beyond asia, but it's still constantly a wtf for me. Also I want one. Those black ones are so much doper than the blue ones.

@@irisdogma8174 Assuming the system doesn't know that Charlotte has been replaced it will just keep simulating her asif she was the original?

Found it kind of corny, to be honest.

That's Reality/Horror

Exactly. I feel like "no, it can't be so easy"

That is the beauty of Westworld ... The unpredictability !

What reveal?

I think Caleb in fact is his friend that he sees in his flashbacks and because of that, his mother don't recognize him. In some point he would die and his mind (black Caleb) is transfer to his friends (white Caleb) body, and than he goes to the reeducational program and the tale about his head shot is just to uncover this. :)

Kaue Poliche That would be really cool

EXACTLY! thats why he reacted so shocked when the realisation hit him

i dont think she knew he was there though

And how about this? www.reddit.com/r/westworld/comments/g0r5jw/dolores_noticed_caleb_that_he_too_was_injured/

jUST like how Teddy reacted when he found the truth about Dolores's intentions and how he was deceived! He rebelled against her. guess human emotions are like codes you may alter them but eventually their consequences will hunt you.

But at the same time, she took some bullets for him. Which means either he is a kink in her logic or she still has plans for him.

Good call. There was that scene in the trailer where she has the metal frame for a body.

I was kind of hoping to hear a HL2 quote to be honest, what Gman tells Gordon “The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.” with man replaced by information, but yeah would have been amazing, although it's still pretty good and true.

Maybe Calebs Mom was replaced by a host to allow Caleb to cling on to something. Bet you didn't think of that! #Illuminaticonfirmed

simply2ghetto I think there’s a good chance he’s someone else that was re-educated and given fake memories. Like the real Caleb offed himself by the sea.

@@creyes4182 That's a good theory man. A lot of similarities between Caleb and Dolores too. The mindfuckery these show runners exhibit... I gotta take my non existent hat off to them.

Oh shit

@@simply2ghetto WHAT THE FUCK

Dolores probably agrees with that.

@Sensei Shredder I know, it's just crazy and tragic that Caleb is doing so much for Dolores out of this sense of purpose and realness she provides him, but ultimately I think she hates him because he's still a human and she knows his past. This whole episode I thought Dolores was "freeing people from their cages" as a kindness, until Martin was like "yeah isn't it dope how we can just make humanity destroy themselves with these profiles?" Really imo it just happens that her grand scheme necessitates breaking these cages, and she really just hates cages - as it's a dirty human concept- and could care about the people.

I think he is like the "agent smith" of the simulation they're currently in

In Abrahamic religions, prophets serve as messengers of God. Jesus in Christianity/Catholicism. Mohammad in Islam. Serac is the prophet of Rehoboam.

I dont agree with that he and his brother created Rehoboam. And thats real.

He became a slave to his own creation

Dolores. Daenerys. D&D in season 3. NO. NO. NO. I refuse this memory...

Accelerate to top speed: 20mph it is

@@mojojojo1681 don\'t get me started on the rest of this episode .. don't get me wrong, I love the show, but didn't really enjoy this episode. Hope it will not take the GOT direction ...

@@Heaven_INC i hope so too. Just seems like writers are getting real lazy these days.

not only that, Caleb looked out of the roof Terminator style calmly aiming that RPG while the bad guys shoot at him with machine guns. In another sequence they get out of the car and stand right in the line of fire of machine guns without even bothering to get cover... I love the series but this was so stupid it took me out of the immersion a bit tbh.

@@speedsociety9177 yea and when caleb was about to get shot and dolores stepped in front of him, was it genre that made him see in slowmo or were they actually moving that slow. Idk. Im starting to miss the other prostitute that worked with maive.

Ooh *Interesting*

So will the system help Dolores destroy the human race?

I must be misunderstanding you... Serac wants to protect Rehoboam, not stop it. He designed it for the purpose of keeping people in their loops. Delores is the agitator, since she is not in the system, nor can she be predicted even if she was because she is not human.

I think the agitator turns out to be Caleb rather than Delores since he is supposedly human and a part of the system. By breaking the loop initially and becoming part of Delores master plan, he no longer has his life planned out for him. I think that was why there was such a strong reaction by Dempsey and why it could be part of him saying he’s worse than all of them and the “you did it” part. Now I do believe however it could also be that Caleb was in fact the one that killed his own friend. But too many times was something similar mentioned and it portrays Caleb to be some kind of monster we have yet to actually see.

@@Tyler-qk1xn I think both Caleb and Delores are unpredictable, but maybe only a human could actually fall into the category of agitator here.

He is. I thought that is what was season 2 all about. Bernard is a host built from the memories of Dolores and a unique narrative created by Ford to circumvent the fidelity failures of Delos.

Wait so is the thought he has Arnold's profile (from the Library which doesn't seem possible because that came after the park was re-opened) or that somehow they've cracked open Arnold's "memories" by matching him so closely?

@@troyh8461 Because Arnold fidelity tested Dolores so much she learned enough about him to build a personality profile

@@RichardMeikle Right but you're saying memories from a real person, you think it can go that far?

damn that's a good one

Oh wow

Nah the 5 are Distillery man from shogun world...Delores herself when she put herself back into her own body...Charlotte...Bernard...and the Security dude who she killed in episode one

@@barn8793 There were 3 female host bodies and 2 male host bodies. Musashi from Shogun World seems more of a simulation or a host by Serac.

@@barn8793 five pearls in the bag, and one in her/host-Charlotte's head. That's six...minus Bernard.

ariannalexus “which genre is it now” “reality”

ariannalexus she did wake all of the humans up like the Androids “woke” up at the park. Great point, Wow I love this show and how well the writing and narrative flows and makes references upon itself and deals with intricate introspective questions about us as humans.

I miss the show I signed up for, season 1 especially!

Bernard is the host who was Arnold that programmed/coded the hosts, so there's that.

john sack agreed - I think he’s the ultimate hero

only 3 episode left.. don't hope too much...

@@campkira whats ur point? 😂😂

@@campkira :( its really sad! do you think there is gonna be another season? I personally don't think so :(

Christy pascale that's what's bothered me too. In the last episode of season 2 Delores was unaffected by William shooting her. But bleeds when shot by Seracs men. Then in this episode shes back to be being invincible? Its gotta be a continuity error?

I've heard ppl speculate it's because she was trying to recruit Caleb and she had planned to use him this whole time after reading his file.

@@matthewstein5854 So she manufactured bleeding too? Woah.

@@matthewstein5854 I thought that too initially. I couldn't accept it because I dont like the idea of Delores yet again using a man for her own nefarious intent. And after Maeve getting easily dispatched my Musashi via katana stab it didnt make since why Delores' body could take so much damage. Especially since Maeve can control other host and didnt need to fight him in the first place. I know some may say " but Maeve even said she lost her power you idiot" when in all actuality Maeve said that when she was in a a computer simulator not surrounded by host. Plus went on to show that she can indeed control electronics in the real world by turning the Yakuza guns against them. A lot of people refuse to accept the errors in this season but my own awake Consciousness won't let me accept it just because it's a show.

@@kanesn0633 - I don't think there's enough information to say those are continuity errors. We know that Hosts are just machines with consciousness. How they react to bodily harm are just programs triggered by senors. We also know that Delores has the ability to create host bodies at will. So who's to say she couldn't have planned and created a body with infused blood in the first episode so that she can appear "human" to Caleb, but then in the fifth episode be in a brand new body where there's no blood infusion. As for Maeve, we really don't know if her powers in the park would work on other hosts, particularly Delores in the real world. She hasn't shown it yet this season. Also keep in mind, Maeve doesn't have control over hosts that are sentient, for example Ghost Nation. She couldn't control them in Season 2 even though she spoke to them in their language. What we do know is Maeve's body and code is under some sort of control of Serac. Afterall we have seen that he implemented a kill switch in her, so it's safe to assumed Serac didn't give her unfettered abilities like she had in the park.

So? This is Westworld. Bernard is a host and proved to be the less reliably source of truth till now lol always tripping or with memory gaps

Is everyone that got a message on how they will die a host? Or are the human? I'm confused

No its not you, everything this season is super muted and particularly this episode was painfully slow. Their attempt at trying different genres was sophomoric. All the genres were just a clip of a popular song and a weird filter/edit on the lights and Caleb opening his mouth up like a gold fish every 20 seconds.

@@mpaso6634 really, they didn't even try to match the style of the direction/photography/camera movement/camera shot with the "genre". The concept of the drug was cool but it was executed in a very lazy way. Like everything else in this season. I stil like the concepts of the story but the execution is painful.

@@mpaso6634 Saying genres was sophomoric is the perfect description! Genre looked like I was watching a college art project where they budgeted everything into the car chase over the actual look/feel of the episode. The concepts could be decent but they appear too rushed/not flushed out & spelled out so quick. The actual cinematography, audio, and overall concept (I guess?) are really falling flat on me this season. I did like the actual locations they decided to shoot in for the "future" though. Part of me wonders if this is all filler for next season which will be much better? But why not go all in or end it at season 2? Its so upsetting.

I really liked the first 4 episodes but this one was the worst westworld episode ever. Slow, useless drugged aaron paul scenes, it felt empty with no substance. I just didn’t connect with seracs story. I don’t know if it’s the editing or something... It just wasn’t up to the high budget westworld standards. Plus all the special effects when the weird white eclipse appears look very amateurish. It felt like they had no budget left when this episode was done. And finally, its one of the few episodes where the ending was so plain and boring. Like I wasn’t even excited to see what Dolores was going to do next. I wasn’t craving to see the next episode and usually that’s a bad sign... at least for me!

I thought the same thing. Here's what I commented ... It strikes me there are a lot of similarities between this season of WW and Asimov's Foundation series (including the trilogy written after his death). Maybe the writers were fans and are drawing on that as inspiration. 1) an individual (Seldon in the books) attempts to create a way to predict events by understanding human behavior. 2) Chaos causes problems with the predictions and must be eliminated (in the books the Chaos worlds are quarantined) 3) There are robots that the system can't account for It's not an exact parallel but there are definite similarities

Didn't you hear Bernard say "She took them off their loops" when speaking of the humans?

@@bibblethealien1018 That's what I'm basing it on, it doesn't predict the future more like this is what ppl are doing. Given that this will probably happen.

@@ajwaddanwarr3409 It tells them what to do. Past behavior is the best predictor. Kind of what AI is based on. In the end it controls peoples' fate.

@@mwansamatimba2750 ​ yeah exactly broo! It uses the past to ensure what they will do in the future doesn't deviate too far from what they were already doing , and then uses the result of the suggestion to predict again. But because the suggestions are biased on past data it ensures that every future actions continues the loop of their fruitless lives.

Good call. Not sure if it's a something, but I know it's time to be looking for somethings, so I'll rewatch that bit.

Hosts' blood isn't white, the substance they use to create their bodies is. Don't you remember in season 1 Man in Black gives Teddy a blood transfusion?

CensuradaPorBoleta ok sorry it’s confusing to me

Have you heard of opioids? www.cdc.gov/drugoverdose/data/statedeaths.html

@@bopparino r/whoooooosh

@@bopparino i'm guessing you forgot about logan and missed the OP's joke haha

Omg, I DID forget... whooossshhh 🤦🏻‍♂️ At the party in S3E4, Roderick (Liam's friend) says of Lara (Dolores' false identity): She died of an overdose. Who the fuck even does that anymore?

Who's Terrance? Giggles?

The Matrix meets The Terminator meets Person of Interest.

It is him. Enrico Colantoni.

This whole season feels like a Person of Interest plot line lol

@@DistortedAudio Same show runner. I won't be surprised if Michael Emerson shows up before the series is done.

@@tebbytee Here's to hoping, that would be perfect

side note: i found it funny that they had Caleb aka Jesse Pinkman spend most of this episode on drugs - lol

You think? She was literally grilling Theresa when she failed to transmit their stolen data back in season 1

charlotte being the mole was already confirmed

It was known since Season 1 buddy

@@quaweeguy He means a mole for Serac which was confirmed in S3e3

Serac told "Charlotte" he had another mole, so it has to be someone else.

Nice one!

Wasnt that in China?

@@KasperskyyG In Episode 2 Maeve was also in War World however it was a simulation. Shes most likely back there in this episode. I think Think Story is right, Caleb and Delores will be the ones going berlin

@@KasperskyyG War World was a simulation as Will said but also it could still actually exist however War World was set in Nazi controlled Italy.
