Explain Me This

Every time we have seen a host replace a human, they have been dressed identically to the human right down to the jewelry. That means that they are spying on the humans and dressing the hosts before they leave to replace them. Does that mean if the Senator or his wife had changed their clothes the mission would have been aborted so the hosts could be redressed?

Why was the last Rehoboam (where Maeve said they will pull out all the stops to protect) guarded by exactly 12 lightly armed people?

So Hales plan is to have humans serve hosts and have their narratives written for them often as children. Doesnt that mean that she is going to have to look ahead and calculate something like we are going to need 6,000 plumbers, 1,800 steel workers, 5,700 teachers etc. and then order those narratives written? Plus she would have to balance birth rates, manage pandemics, etc after all your workforce of human servants needs to be maintained. Seems exhausting.

Why does Stubbs order a sandwich at all? Why do any of the hosts eat or drink? They did it in the park to simulate realism but out in the real world there is no need. With Hale controlling everything the humans can just be ordered to overlook anyone not eating or drinking.

I’ve been thinking about the sandwich thing for a bit because I love sandwiches. I think hosts are basically biological, other than their brains, at this point. So he does get hungry and uses food as fuel.

Stubb’s Sandwich (after “Stubb’s Supper,” a chapter in Moby Dick):
Of the many kinds of consipracy theories I enjoy, I think sandwich-based theories are my most favorite. Yes, absolutely: Stubb doesn’t need to eat, right? Why order anything? More confounding, to me: he orders, but is denied, a pastrami melt, and settles for a tuna melt instead. HOWEVER, when we see him eating, and gesturing with the sandwich, it does not look at all like a tuna melt, at least not in the universe of diners in which I have ordered tuna melts…. WTAF? Am I wrong? Look at the sandwich (esp. in profile) — does that look like any tuna melt you’ve ever had in a diner?
Now I’m REALLY questioning the nature of my reality. Again.
