Plot summary
Two weeks after Dolores initiates the hosts' revolt, Delos security forces led by Karl Strand arrive to exterminate any hosts they come across. They find Bernard among a number of massacred hosts and request his help in their task. Bernard, hiding the fact he is a host, helps them, including recovering a memory that Dolores was behind the massacre. Bernard has a flashback to events immediately after Dr. Ford's death.
In the park, Dolores leads her hosts to hunt down the guests. Teddy, who is still on his narrative loop, begs Dolores to run away with him, but she refuses, and states that Westworld and the human world can no longer co-exist. Angela tells Dolores she found what they were looking for. They set out, with Dolores intending to reveal the hosts' true nature to themselves. William, elated that the park now poses a real threat, evades the hosts. He finds the "young Dr. Ford" host, who tells him that there is a new game Dr. Ford programmed just for him: to find "the door" to allow him to escape the maze. William kills the host.
Within the Westworld control center, Maeve stops a rogue host from killing Lee. Lee offers to help find Maeve's daughter.
