Ep.83: Westworld - 303 - Instacast

Westworld

If your main question after Season 3, Episode 3, was "who's in those pearls?" you missed a lot of really good TV. Westworld's genre-switching was phenomenal; Tessa Thompson's portrayal of an other inside Charlotte Hale's shell was impeccable; and plausible glimpses of future tech were both astonishing and chilling.

In this instant reaction episode, we touch on Rahobo's mirror reality, Caleb's augmentation, Charlotte's predator within, and the very idea of identity. The Shat Crew also announce their new Twitch channel and celebrate pedophile murder.

Also, if you miss our opening theme music, blame Apple for not allowing Audacity on Catalina. We'll have it fixed for the Deep Dive.

Westworld Episode 3 Summary:"The Absence of Field" The Charlotte host learns Serac is attempting to take over Delos via a mole within the company. Struggling to maintain her identity as a host, Charlotte discovers that the human Charlotte was Serac's mole, having promised to get the guests' data to him. However, that data is now locked by an encryption key that Dolores has. Caleb helps Dolores flee but becomes a target under the Rico system. Dolores arrives to save him and shows him that Rehoboam is a predictive AI that is being used to shape the future direction of humanity, down to controlling every individual's life. Rehoboam has predicted that Caleb will commit suicide in a decade and thus keeps him in poor-paying jobs. Caleb offers to join Dolores as she plans a revolution against Serac and Rehoboam.
