Bernard And The Open Mesh Network.

Published May 21, 2018 · Updated July 6, 2022

Hey everyone,

I suppose any media content (trailers/sneak previews) is open to interpretation and how we map it to what we are currently experiencing in the show. In this case, I think I may have cracked what we are seeing when Bernard “remembers” previous memories.

Throughout this season, we have travelled with Bernard from waking up on the beach, his short time with Hale, and his raid on the Delos lab. We are meant to believe this is one Bernard, experiencing the past as he navigates the present. But what if the unveiling of this host open-mesh network is more pivotal than we think,

Per coming attractions, we are shown a snippet of multiple Bernard hosts. Screenshot below.

What if multiple Bernards have been navigating the park at the same time? What if because of the open mesh network, one host can seemingly experience the memories of his counterpart? This may also lead to the explanation of different outfits Bernard is seen is but also a difference in behavior. Bernard cannot answer direct questions regarding the days before because it was not him.

This leads credence to the capability of Maeve telepathically controlling other hosts. She has the ability to control others mentally because of her ability to better connect to the open mesh network and utilize her admin permission set of commands. I’m not a fan of her host mind trick and do believe they have jumped the shark with this, but I feel like we know very little of the capabilities this open mesh network provides.

What if down the line, the open mesh network allows all hosts to observe the recorded experiences of each other?

Thanks for the excellent podcast, see you in Delos soon
