I&#8217;m sure somebody has thought of this, but I don&#8217;t recall hearing it. Could it be that MiB is a host a key to the maze himself? Gene&#8217;s comments on the fact that MiB&#8217;s backstory did not make sense, sparked a thought. Could that story be part of a narrative Ford wrote or at least been planted in MiB if he were a host? <\/p>\n<p>We know he is looking for the maze, but perhaps he is needed to get Teddy to the center of the maze. It is interesting that when MiB comes in contact with hosts, they seem to later have an awakening soon thereafter. <\/p>\n<p>Another interaction I find curious is that when MiB and Ford have their convo in the cantina, Ford says he wouldn&#8217;t stand in the way of a journey of self-discovery. Given that we now know that Ford has a higher opinion of hosts than of humans, could this be a clue to MiB&#8217;s being a host? It just seems that Ford knows everything that goes on in WestWorld. <\/p>\n<p>Lastly, when the host stabs Teddy at the end of the last episode, and she says we&#8217;ll get you back in the fold, is this a way to try and get Teddy back in his loop? Maybe we are watching a game of chess between Arnold and Ford and other , (Delores,Teddy, MiB, etc.) are pieces on the board. Just a thought I had.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks,<\/p>\n<p>-Anthony M<br \/>\nMankato, MN<p><strong>Subscribe Now<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Android:\u00a0<a title=\"Android\" href=\"https:\/\/shatpod.com\/tv\/westworld-android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/shatpod.com\/tv\/westworld-android<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Apple\/iTunes:\u00a0<\/em><a title=\"iTunes\" href=\"https:\/\/shatpod.com\/tv\/westworld-itunes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>https:\/\/shatpod.com\/tv\/westworld-itunes<\/em><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Help Support the Podcast<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Contact Us: <a href=\"\/contact\/\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/contact<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Commission Movie: <a href=\"\/support\/\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/support<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Support with Paypal: <a href=\"\/paypal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/paypal<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Support With Venmo: <a href=\"\/venmo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/venmo<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Shop Merchandise: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/shop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/shop<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Shop Amazon With Our Affiliate Link &#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/?tag=shatmovies-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/?tag=shatmovies-20<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Theme Song &#8211;\u00a0<a title=\"The Ecstasy Of Gold\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/album\/hip-hop-feat.-western-fistful\/id383104544\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8220;The Ecstasy Of Gold&#8221; (Hip Hop Instrumental Version)<\/a> \u00a0by\u00a0<a title=\"Dj 2 Bad\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/artist\/dj-2-bad\/id380839995\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dj 2 Bad<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Outro Music &#8211; By <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/simonsteric\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Simon Eric Haywood<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Morning Guys, I just had a thought cross my mind.
