Ep.80: Westworld - 302 - Instacast

Was "Westworld" Season 3, Episode 2 a thrilling mind-bender or a "Rick and Morty" ripoff? "The Winter Line" took as back to the park and some familiar faces, including ... Drogon? 

Maeve dropped a math bomb; Big D got on the Aaron Paul Train; and Gene Lyons thinks he's smarter than everyone else. 

In this instant reaction episode, we drool over an "assed-up" Stubbs; discuss Bernard's flashbacks; learn the difference between Greg, Gary, and Jerrry; and preview Ash's upcoming lesson on Althusser.

Westworld Episode 2 Summary: "The Winter Line"
Bernard returns to Westworld and discovers the Ashley host is still functioning. With Ashley's help, they find the Maeve host, but it is lacking its "pearl" and that it is no longer in the park. Bernard uses the systems there to verify that Dolores had not contaminated his code, and discovers Dolores targeted several prior park guests including Liam. He reprograms Ashley to help protect him as they return to the mainland. Maeve is rescued from Warworld by Hector but realizes this is another narrative and kills herself to come to in Operations, discovering Lee is alive and wants to help get her to the Forge. However, Maeve soon realizes that this is all a virtual simulation, and after testing its bounds, is able to break her pearl free from its real-world location, but guards stop the attempt. She wakes in a real-world host body and meets Serac, who, after initially thinking she was the major disruption on the system he built, wants her help to stop Dolores.
