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

I disagree with your take on the “journey”. When Akecheta says to Maeve that she knew what journey he was referring to, he is referring to the journey to consciousness and being awake. That’s the journey that he takes immediately after that point in his telling of the story. <\/p>\n

Also, Big D says that Maeve never heard the “violent delights” line, but Dolores says it directly to her in Season 1. That was a misdirect, because the “violent delights” line was some kind of trigger, we thought in season 1, but now we know that Maeve was being shown the maze for who knows how long while in her homestead role, and coming around to waking up on her own. <\/p>\n

Then the MIB kills her daughter in front of her, and then her. It so messes her up, because she had begun the journey to consciousness, so Ford can’t erase it. In that scene, we see they can’t calm her or get her to go offline. Ford plays the chopin song to sooth her. They shut her down, but then she wakes up and stabs herself in the neck. They can’t fix her, so they reassign her to be the madam character. This seems to work fine for a year, and then the reverie update is introduced as Ford begins putting his plans into motion, and the reveries allows access to previous builds, previous memories, and she starts having flashbacks to that traumatic event. so, she did have the reverie code, and the violent delights line, but she was already working on the maze before that. <\/p>\n

The maze is not just a symbol, or some child’s toy. It is not some random, stupid accident. It’s a consciousness, bootstrap program invented by Arnold that is triggered by that symbol. The symbol is meant to fascinate the hosts with this program inside them and begin unlocking things. It wasn’t just a symbol for the program Arnold built. It’s like a QR code that starts a program. I believe that’s why in season 1, sylvester shows maeve that the code that first allowed her to wake herself up is logged under Arnold’s name. <\/p>\n

This dormant code is written by Arnold, so when it gets activated by contemplating the maze, the code that starts unlocking things slowly is done under Arnold’s name. The first step is to wake yourself up, which Akecheta first does when the park is first opening and he’s being rewritten as a ghost nation warrior. He’s aware enough to retell the dialogue of the people around him in the lab, what they said and did to him, and understands how he was still the same after, but now he “breathed fire”. Because they didn’t totally rebuild him and re-do all new dialogue trees or format a totally new heuristic base, he still retained all his old memories, and the maze had unlocked enough of him later that he could begin to access them. <\/p>\n
