We are in the middle of war.
I need your help to win it
Seems fairly idyllic for wartime, no one knows it's happened yet.
Or that it's already been lost.
Welcome back everyone it's Charlie bring yourself back online this is going to be my
Westworld season 3 episode 2 video if you're new to the channel be sure to
subscribe to get all the videos there's a bunch of Easter eggs couple big cameo
scenes too careful for spoilers if you have not seen the episode yet will do
top 10 and easter eggs as we go along starting with number 10
welcome to war world so the episode begins with me looking out on the world
world park scene it takes her a while to figure out what's going on but they
tried to play a lot of the season 1 season 2 tropes in really funny
different way this time a simulation within a simulation boom mind blown you
notice a lot of funny things during this first loop she's not sure why she knows
how to speak German but we know that she does have special powers but later when
she and Hector are running out and trying to escape the Germans she finds
out that her powers aren't working takes her a little while to find out why but
they explained it by the end of the episode even though this wound up being
a fake version of the part because it's artificial construct and them trying to
get information out of earth they were trying to base it on the real version of
war world so there is a real war world within the larger park system remember
there's many different parks we haven't seen them all yet we saw two new ones
during this episode number 9 welcome back to West world Bernard the funny
thing about the way he enters the park we finally get to see what it actually
looks like on the outside when someone physically travels to West world because
we've only seen them come in on the train before in the West World Park you
have to remember that it's actually a bunch of different islands within the
South China Sea so if you wondered why there was so much China stuff going on
in last week's episode that's because this is where the park is located within
the world we've seen them looking out over the coast but we never actually
seen the outer rim so you just see these giant breakers here with systems that'll
look like they're built to protect the park the place that he walks in through
though is also really important because this is the same town from the end of
season one where Dolores fully traversed the maze and achieved full consciousness
the town itself is built to be a replica of the original West world park from
years ago when Ford was first building the hosts and they were first trying to
figure out what West's world would be before they started building the other
parks there's still a lot of places that we haven't seen in the park yet but we
do go back to that place from season 1 where they store all the dead hosts this
is actually the original entryway where guests would arrive at
Westworld when they were first building the park just meant to be more Easter
eggs for the west-world movies if you haven't seen those movies in a while
number eight welcome back sighs more so maybe is still kind of going through her
first version of the loop figuring out that this is a fake reality construct
some of you may have figured out what was going on before they revealed it
within the episode because you start to notice some inconsistencies like why
didn't these old guards recognize her because this was the guard that helped
her last time what's going on here does he not like her anymore does he don't
wanna have anything to do with this you don't really notice this Sizemore is
fake until he starts laying it on real thick because he was famous for telling
really gaudy bad story so once they hit the forge that's when it becomes really
obvious but number seven Bernard finds Ashley in Fords secret lab he goes back
to the secret underground lair you see all the other copies of Bernard that we
saw last season when they revealed that he was the host but then you find out
that Ashley is also secretly been a host that is one of the big fan theories
that's been happening since season one dude because of the way they used the
character they kind of implied that he was a host last season but they never
fully officially answered the question until now so number six Ashley is a host
he reveals what his core programming was Ford created him to protect Bernard and
allow him to escape the park and then cover up all the evidence
then terminate himself so it was actually built into his programming that
he was supposed to destroy himself later they have that funny moment where
Bernard changes his programming again to protect him so new core programming he's
going to be going out into the real world as they try to stop Dolores if he needed
my help you could have just asked so it is funny that Ashley knows that he's
been reprogrammed Bernard also raises the question about why Dolores brought
him back he thinks it's because Dolores feels like she needs some checks and
balances so maybe she brought him back to keep her from crossing the line but
maybe it's part of some bigger plan that she has so number five Sizemore in the
forge are revealed as fakes as the reality slowly starts to crumble because
Maeve starts taxing him too much they explain this later when she gives them
the crazy math problem the version of Sizemore that they built for this
construct is only built to do a couple things so the more Maeve asks of him
more to question his reality the more the constructs starts to break down
so she's inside a fake reality because the west-world people or someone is
trying to examine her you don't find out to the end of the episode why she was
inside this construct but they do remind you that Dolores is the only person who
knows the coordinates of the forge all that information with the backups of the
hosts in the people that were stored that's where Dolores sent Eddie at the
end of last season so Dolores wants to keep that safe because she still does
care about Teddy once made figures out the size morphs fake she tells a couple
good jokes about him too like we know this is fake because Sizemore was only
obsessed with himself like look at all these pictures of me he would never
cared about me that much so number four mave breaks the matrix with math
basically she just gives them a really really difficult math problem to solve
that eventually starts compounding and acts like this sort of black hole of
processing power that just sucks in all the other fake texts from that reality
it gets pretty funny once they start the ball rolling and then she also puts all
the maps inside the hosts pockets before they go back for another loop so that
she can break the simulation even more by taxing its processing power we're all
traders number three was that big obvious Game of Thrones cameo scene.
These techs are just waiting see if they get laid off.
Got a buyer! What? It's a start up in
Costa Rica lucky hang at that because of Costa Rica.
Pieces man.

So I talked about this in
my last video it was highly publicized that the Game of Thrones producers Dan
and Dave would have a cameo during West world as techs. We just didn't know exactly
what it was going to happen the West world producers explained that what they
wanted to do is because this is meant to be medieval world that Bernard and
Ashley are walking through which is also from the West world movies but this is
like West world playing it as if their medieval world is based on the world of
A Song of Ice and Fire I'm sure within the world of West world
they paid millions and millions of license fees to the estate of George RR
Martin to get the rights to those the West world producers said the reason why
it was Dan and Dave the cameoed is west world Tex is because they wanted to use
the drogon character model so it's literally like they copy pasted it
drogon from Game of Thrones into West world it's the exact same character
model but because it's HBO. HBO technically owns those assets so it's
really easy for them to clear something like that if you listen really carefully
you can actually hear them talking to each other about finding a buyer off an
island in Costa Rica for the dragon that they created that's a big Jurassic Park
reference you could also think of it as a Jurassic world reference you don't
really get a good look at their names but they're actually credited as Dan and
Dave so within the world of West's world these two texts are named Dave and Dan
they created a dragon and they're going to be selling it to Richard Hammond
sometime soon Jurassic Park you all remember is also a Michael Crichton book
so Michael Crichton wrote Westworld he also wrote Jurassic Park so they're just
doing larger Michael Crichton Easter eggs here you guys can let me know
whether you like this or whether you didn't like it some people just felt
like it was really on the nose but obviously back when West world first
debuted a lot of people were like wouldn't it be cool if there was a game
of Thrones world but that was a couple of years ago so I haven't really thought
about that since then number two Maebh escapes the simulation within a
simulation by hacking another robot so the cool thing about this is that you
actually get to see through the robots perspective so it's almost like you're
playing some kind of video game just watching it assess threats as it just
rips into riot mode takes or cortex and just bust through all those guards
the way the robot goes out also answers some questions about what's going on
with that final scene when she meets Serac too. So number 1 obviously probably
one of the biggest parts of the episode Maeve meets Serac the creator of
Rehoboam sort of like an alternate version of Ford who created this giant
machine to lead humanity forward and literally create the future as he says
it is our job to create the future a prophet only predicts it we created you
all probably recognize vincent cassell i've never seen a movie or a TV show
with him in it where he doesn't play some really arrogant smart person who
just talks over people so it'll be interesting to see what happens to him
this season the way he's playing the character is that he seems like he wants
to help humanity but there's this really sinister overtone to it like he's
controlling humanity he knows what's best so he's going to use this machine
to help lead humanity forward the reason why I think he's able to freeze Maeve in
her tracks is because remember when we saw the robot go down and her cortex
just rolled into the grass Ciroc would have been the person to put her cortex
in a new physical body so he could have added special code to protect himself
into that body that he put her in so whatever he did to change her he now has
a fail-safe button to protect himself which does seem like it's prudent given
that she tries to kill him immediately but if you don't remember from last
week's episode the way they sort of established him inside the insight
company is that he's one of the founders kind of like Ford is one of the founders
of Westworld when his business partner died and left
his assets to his son who we met in last week's episode the person that Delores
was trying to pull a fast one on he locked Liam out so he's the only one
that has access to Rehoboam and he says that it's not working right anymore and
it's because of what Delores is doing but so far we don't really know what's
going on only that he says there will be no future if they continue on their path
in the whole thing about the Rehoboam system is that it's designed to analyze
the future based on predicting people's behaviors so it's sort of like the way
Doctor Strange was using the time stone during Avengers infinity war to analyze
millions and millions of different possible futures Rehoboam does that but
it's actually analyzing the potential actions of all the other people that
it's plugged into or connected to through their devices or through their
systems they use the last week's episode to show you how human
relies on insights software and systems so much that Rehoboam is literally
connected in governing all the people as if they themselves were hosts trapped
inside a simulation in Rehoboam is the thing that's giving them their marching
orders telling them what to do giving them suggestions maybe you should do
this instead of that so this why serach comes off as sort of a sinister figure
the same way that four does so I'll be interesting to see how they position him
in the series versus four because Ford actually seemed like he eventually
wanted to help everyone and really did want to make things better
so everyone post all your predictions in the comments below and let me know if
you think that Serac is going to wind up being an evil character or a good
character that will try to help them episode three will post next week so as
long as you have alerts enable for my channel you should see that video when I
post it every one click here for my West world episode one video and click here
for my brand new Marvel Deadpool 3 video thank you so much for watching everyone
