Westworld “Akane no Mai” In Westworld, Dolores questions what to do with Teddy. She concludes that he is a decent person but his decency makes him a liability and has him reprogrammed against his will. At the edge of the park, Maeve’s party is captured and escorted into a shogunate-themed park designed to be more extreme than Westworld called Shogunworld. They are taken to a nearby town where they meet Akane, a geisha who plays a similar role to Maeve. Akane is negotiating with a local shogun, but when she kills the shogun’s emissary, he retaliates by sending ninjas to kidnap her daughter Sakura and samurai to subjugate the town. During the attack, Maeve forces a ninja to kill himself without voicing a command. Maeve, Akane and Lee infiltrate the shogun’s camp to rescue Sakura and find the shogun is damaged and unstable. Akane kills the shogun after he kills Sakura and Maeve wordlessly forces his samurai to turn on one another. She, Akane and Lee regroup as the shogun’s army attack the camp.

Westworld Episode 5 Theories: “Akane no Mai” Where did the Man in Black actually start? Where did William end? Can techs adjust “woke” hosts’ settings?

Hey Guys, A little late but did anyone freeze frame on the scene where all the host where piled up and in the beginning of the episode. Did any one catch a glimpse of dead Teddy and Hector ? Irene Archuleta
Hi gang, A couple quick thoughts after this episode: -Is Charlotte a rouge agent or possibly tied to someone else within Delos but running outside normal operations? Strand said they lost a 1/3 of the IP, granted related to a number of bodies that they found so it may or...
Also: Ford is drinking with “Old Bill” in the storage locker and mentions that he was the second host built. If Dolores was the first and “BILL” ahem WILLIAM was the second – then they were the first pair. A la Adam and Eve, maybe? If you watch S1 credits...
Hey Guys, I was re watching this week’s episode and Maeve’s mind control trick reminded me of Ford and his ability to control vast number of hosts with a word or the simple movement of a finger. Now that we know about the mesh network it would seem logical to...
Hey hosts, This might be a little out there but I think it’s another way of thinking about something we’ve assumed as fact. The now flooded area that the man in Black refered to as his biggest mistake might not be the end result of a plan hatched by Dolores....
What timeline is Maeve in? I’ve been a loyal listener and fan of the podcast since the beginning of Westworld and just had never written in. But this topic with Maeve has been driving me crazy. When is Maeve’s story taking place? Episode 1 – Maeve runs into Sizemore in...
