Westworld Moral Code

Published February 5, 2017 · Updated July 6, 2022

I just had an interesting, yet disturbing, conversation with an acquaintance on FB. The main point of the Delos park(s) seems to be that no matter what depraved fantasy could be imagined, it would be available to a guest to fulfill. When William killed Maeve’s “daughter” because he wanted to do something truly evil to see how he would react, it was allowed. My acquaintance pointed out, however , that simply killing the host was no where’s near the worst thing that could be thought of, especially when it comes to a child host and the other sexual depravity that went on in the park. Do you think that a guest who truly wanted to test the limits of what they would be allowed to do could really get away with anything or is there an unwritten line which cannot be crossed, perhaps including the sexual treatment of the child hosts.

Not a comfortable email to write but if anyone cold hash this out, I would think it would be you guys.

See you in season 2.
