Got Milk?

Published November 19, 2016 · Updated July 6, 2022

Really enjoying the show especially the audience interaction.Maybe you could score the theories.

I’m writing this after watching episode 7 but came up with thisidea after episode 4.

My theory

In the opening credits, we are shown the hosts being created In vats of white liquid. I believe it’s milk ,at the Abernathy farm the bandits says “all they got is milk” and when Walter goes off script and is killing hosts says “drink your milk you’re a growing boy ”

In Jurassic park to make the dinosaurs they use frog DNA to fill in gaps. In this scenario, the use cow DNA say 0.01% to make them docile and follow routines. So they non-humans getting around legal and moral issues. Dairy cows get milked twice a day,all you have to do is open the gates and they walk in to get milked sort of their loop.

Delores makes the Judas cow reference that cow will follow each other or lead cow.

Peter Abernathy original story line was the Professor , the leader of a cult who were cannibals. He has a fit and acts demented then is sent to cold storage. The is a disease in cows is called B.S.E Bovine spongiform encephalopathy )

commonly known as mad cow disease ,which they get if they eat cow or sheep brain or spinal tissue.

I think the original cult was Peter Abernathy ,Lucas, and the Sheriff. All the hosts in cold storage will get infected and become zombie-like. Wyatt storyline seems to be a clue to this and Armistice saying her horses eats flesh.

The disease takes years to show any symptoms.

We keep seeing the symbol of the maze which is a modern concept with a prize at the center. My idea is that it is a labyrinth:

The entire park stopping the hosts escaping
The loop keeping the hosts going round in circles.

The most famous labyrinth being the Minotaurs half bull half man fed human sacrifices to stay alive trapped in the labyrinth designed by Daedalus or Arnold in this idea.

Also, there is that scene of Delores repeatedly dropping her can of maiden brand condensed milk.
