If the hive network is this big central strand that helps the hosts know what the others are doing at all times, that means that they operate on one big collective consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>Maeve is not Maeve, she is just a small part of a bigger central brain, same for dolores, Teddy, Bernard, etc&#8230; it&#8217;s not just a handful of the hosts that have moved towards sentience, it&#8217;s the hive network, and that network is building upon the experiences of all characters, present and past, to assess its next move.<\/p>\n<p>I think season two may be the evolution of this hive consciousness discovering its purpose, realizing it doesn&#8217;t need hundreds of bodies to conquer the world&#8230; just one, then rewriting it&#8217;s entire code to the Bernard we see with Stubbs in an effort to exit the park and re-expand to infiltrate the real world. <\/p>\n<p>Just an idea, would love to know your thoughts.
