Tin Foil Theory

Published May 31, 2018 · Updated July 6, 2022

Hey Guys,

While I was listening to the deep dive I had a thought that is crazy even to me, but it is fun to think about it. What if Charlotte Hale actually IS Elsie? My original crazy thought was that Elsie is just an avatar that Hale is using. By that I mean Elsie is a host and Hale has either implanted her own consciousness into the Elsie body, or is controlling it remotely when it suits her.

Here’s a version of this theory that is easier to believe: If Bernard has been in the Core longer than we realize, perhaps Hale has been running simulations and interacting with him as herself, as Elsie, and who knows who else. OR, even less dramatic; perhaps somewhere along the way Hale simply rigged Bernard to see Elsie when he looks at Hale, because he will be more helpful to Elsie than to Hale. Let me know what you guys think! I love the podcast! It is refreshing to hear intelligent folks playing with the puzzle that is Westworld.
