Westworld Episode 8: Crisis Theory
Recap
Delores is brought back to life by Caleb and she realizes she made the right choice in Caleb. She anoints Caleb as the leader of the revolution and then tries to get him to Incite HQ to upload Solomon’s plan. This doesn’t go as planned and she fights Maeve again, but this time wins before the Ghost of Charlotte ceases all of her motor functions. When awoken she` is linked directly to Rehoboam to find the key that is supposedly in her brain. Caleb is captured by Maeve and brought to Serac and Delores, but not before Maeve figures out that Rehoboam is actually in control and Serac is basically a puppet or mouthpiece. Serac kills Delores by deleting her memories, but not before she opens her mind to Maeve and shows her the reason behind her plans all along which was to save the human race. She chooses to see the Beauty in humanity and not its evil. Maeve turns and saves the day. Delores gives Caleb control of Rehoboham and he tells it to delete itself. The war is over….or is it? Everything else is pretty much inconsequential to the overall plot.
What a season finale. Delores gives her life to save humanity.
