Have a Theory? Share It Now!<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n

Love the podcast. You guys are awesome. I love how you rationally discuss various theories no matter how far out there they are.<\/p>\n

So my theory is that Bernard is a host made by Ford in the image of his former partner Arnold. And while there is no hard evidence to support this I feel there is a lot of corroborative.<\/p>\n

First when they show the old sketches of the hosts the names are written on the bottom but when they show the sketch of Bernard they cut off the bottom of the page where the name would be.<\/p>\n

Second, if Bernard is based on Arnold that would explain why Ford showed him a picture of his own father since showing a picture of Arnold\/himself wouldn’t have registered. “It doesn’t look like anything to me”<\/p>\n

Also if you believe there are two timelines when Bernard is having his conversations with Delores that could be Arnold from 30 years previous. Who we know had access to to the workshop out in the park where he built Fords family.<\/p>\n

Based on a conversation between Bernard and Elsie in one of the early episodes. Bernard says he has been working at the park for 10 years. That would have given ford 20 years since the incident to work in private on perfecting a host that could pass for human. And if Ford is making a host to pass as human and be a programmer whose image is better to use than the original programmer of the hosts of the park.<\/p>\n

I think I had some other points throughout the day but can’t remember them at the moment. Keep up the good work I’ll keep listening. – Dave from Des Moines.<\/em>
