After watching the premiere of Westworld season 3, I’m sure you guys would be confused about some things that you saw in the episode. So I’m putting forward some theories or plausible explanations for your questions.

WHO’S CONTROL UNIT IS INSIDE CHARLOTTE HALES?

*Note: I just saw the new trailer for westworld and my first and forth assumptions have been debunked. Will write a blog about the trailer tomorrow

DOLORES(BUT THIS IS IN THE PAST)

We have seen the show jump between different points in time. So it won’t be surprising that they are showing us Dolores posing still as Charlotte and once she makes Delos start the reproduction of hosts, she stops posing as her and gets herself a new body. So maybe even the ending scene of season 2 was after this scene took place.

DOLORES(REPLICATED HER CONTROL UNIT PEARL)

We haven’t seen if it’s possible for hosts to replicate their control unit pearl, but I imagine this can be possible, if it is then Dolores replicated her control unit pearl and put it inside Charlotte’s host body to control Delos in her own interest. Also from the look of things Delos and Incite are not at the best of terms, so Dolores controlling Delos gives her an advantage over her war over Incite.

FORD

Since the start of season 1, Ford understood why Arnold did not want the park to be opened. Also he wanted the host to be free and was trying to either provide them an escape from the park to the real world or else into a host heaven which we saw at the end of season 2. Maybe Ford is still pulling the strings by getting into conscious of some other host or he puts a version of himself buried inside Dolores beforehand so even in death he’s in control. This would be a huge twist and they would have to pull it off in a realistic manner without it feeling over the top. But if someone can pull it off, it’s the creators of the show.

PETER ABERNATHY

Okay here me out, even though Peter Abernathy was a retired host, he was the key to everything in season 2. He was also the most valuable asset of Delos. Dolores was also in possession of Peter Abernathy’s control pearl in the past, so maybe she got it back before she left Westworld. We all know how attached she was to his dad and out of all the host she trust him the most.

WHO IS MARTIN CONNELLS AND WHICH HOST IS CONTROLLING HIM NOW?

Before he was killed and was replaced by a host. He was the fixer for Incite inc. He has been portrayed as he knows all the secrets about the company and is a trusted employee. He has been working for the company for a long time. During the premiere episode we heard Liam Dempsey Jr. say that if he tells anything about Rehoboam to Dolores, He’s a dead man like his father. Which implies his father was killed, and following this Martin interrupts them and threatens Liam. This just shows how much power Martin has in the company that he could get away with threatening the face of the company. Before this incident we heard that there’s a leak in Incite, so maybe Dolores has access to rehoboam and used it to predict the actions of Martin so she could replace him with a host.

About the host version of him, I don’t have an answer about who’s control pearl is inside him, but I have seen people argue that Teddy is inside him. But I would argue otherwise, first of all We saw that Dolores let Teddy conscious escape to the host heaven at the end of season 2. Even if she has a copy of Teddy with her, bringing him back would just ruin the goodbye Teddy got at the end. Even though Dolores corrupted him, he killed himself so he didn’t have to be like that anymore. Dolores realised at the core, Teddy was and would always remain pure of heart. So bringing him back would be an insult to his memory.

IS CALEB A HOST OR HUMAN?

I have evidence that either can be true, but according to the story I have an explanation why he should not be revealed as host. If you have seen the fandom wiki, over there Caleb is considered to be a human.

And Westworld has already pulled off this kind of twist of a host posing to be human with Bernard, so the creators doing the same storyline doesn’t make sense from a story perspective.

I think Caleb is more like a cyborg, he’s a merged version of host and human. We know he already has implants inside him, just don’t know the extent of the implants. He also has mentioned that he was shot in the head. I don’t think even in the world of Westworld they could save a person who’s been shot in the head. Maybe Caleb went under experimentation inside jail to reduce his jail time, this could also explain why his mother is reluctant to call him his son. Since he went under physical alteration.

WHAT DOES CALEB MEANS BY GETTING HIS SCORE UP?

If you pause the screen when Caleb is accepting the crime, you can see the screen mentions stats required to accept a crime.

Maybe when Caleb mentions he needs to increase his score, it was in the context of the app. So he could partake in crimes which require higher stats, and the stats are like a leveling up system.

WHO’S CHARLOTTE REFERRING TO WHEN SHE SAYS BERNARD MURDERED OUR FOUNDER?

Charlotte might be referring to James Delos himself. We saw that He and Elsie destroyed the facility that was holding the host version of James Delos. With the destruction of that facility maybe they lost the way to create another version of James Delos by losing his core programming. She might use this as an excuse to target Bernard, giving the Delos company more incentive to capture Bernard, if the reason of murdering of 113 individuals wasn’t enough for the Delos company.

WHO’S CHARLOTTE REPLACING AS THE INTERIM CEO?

Charlotte is most definitely replacing the man in black. SInce Charlotte was inside the park when most of the action took place. So this might have seemed like a good reason to make her CEO. She does have most knowledge about how to deal with the park situation, and is also more than capable of making hard choices.

WHY DOES DOLORES SAY SHE’S LAST OF HER KIND?

During the end of season 2, we see the only hosts that survived were Dolores and Bernard. She might not mean the last of her kind in a literal sense and actually mean only few of them are left to walk the face of earth.

WHAT GOING ON WITH BERNARD?

In the park, all the hosts had two personalities, one was where the act was normal and other was the Analysis mode. Maybe Bernard developed dual personalities for himself due to everything that happened with him and his memory being shuffled. So as a safety measure he developed this other personality which he can switch between whenever he wants with a use of a button. Maybe this other personality wasn’t developed by him, but instead by Dolores. Hear me out, in the episode he doesn’t seem to trust this other personality. Maybe he found out Dolores tampered with his code, so Bernard instead of removing the other personality he got in control of the other personality, he kept it for reasons unknown yet.
