The series of scientific drama comes again to complete the story of the first season which achieves a great success. The first season ends up with a huge massacre of the hosts, who begin to hunt down the human survivors, and the park employees are struggling to get their control over the park. There is no safety as there is no price for humans souls.
The flashback-heavy worldbuilding had the hint of fan service, but in centering the episode on William... "Reunion" turned what could have been a boring infodump into something a little more oblique.
Something that got said a lot during the lead-up to Season 2 was that the women of the show would truly come to own their power. Two episodes in, and it's a promise kept.
"Reunion" doesn't... feature anything from the military cleanup part of the timeline. But it certainly feeds into [it], bringing in extra goals and stakes for several characters.
"Reunion" jolts us awake with flashbacks that provide some much-needed context, and Dolores attempting to jolt her fellow hosts awake ... all while having developed a serious god complex.
It's a timely storyline, coming right at the time that online services like Facebook are facing more public scrutiny than ever. And no doubt that's exactly what Joy and Nolan are aiming for.
Without a doubt, Dolores and Maeve are Westworld's two most interesting and high-quality characters. What is most compelling about them is the different ideologies they represent, as we've touched upon before.
