Westworld season 2 comes to an exciting conclusion this Sunday with Episode 210, “The Passenger.” All season long, Dr. Ford (Anthony Hopkins) has been guiding hosts and humans alike to a mysterious place known as “the Door” by some, “the Valley Beyond,” by others, and “the Forge” by those high up on the Delos ladder.
What will happen when all the players converge on this spot? Let’s check out HBO’s final crop of advance photos and see if we can uncover a clue or two.
First up, the Man in Black (Ed Harris). He’s played Ford’s game all season, and in the process of finding the “Door,” lost everything when he shot his own daughter Emily (Katja Herbers).
Just like MIB, Dolores has lost everything in her quest to get to the Valley Beyond. First, she had to mercy kill her own father, and just last episode, Teddy (James Marsden) ended his own life in front of her. When he was young, MIB fell in love with Dolores, an experience that sent him on a journey of self-discovery that turned him into the man he is today. If the two reunite, we doubt both will come out alive.
Bernard (Jeffrey Wright) is headed to the Forge as well. The seasons started with him coming upon a body of water full of dead hosts. Hopefully, “The Passenger” will fill in the blanks.
Maeve (Thandie Newton) is missing from these advance photos (she’s in the trailer, don’t worry), but her closest allies are front and center, including Akecheta (Zahn McClarnon), the star of the wonderful “Kiksuya.”
Maeve’s lover, Hector (Rodrigo Santoro), is armed and ready for anything:
And, where you find Hector, Armistice (Ingrid Bolso Berdal) is sure to be close by. Let’s hope she brought her dragon with her.
“The Passenger” was written by husband and wife co-creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, and was directed by Frederick E. O. Toye. He directed two episodes of season 1, but is best known for his work on another trippy show: Lost.
“The Passenger” airs this Sunday night, June 24, at 9 p.m. EST. It runs for 90 minutes. Prepare accordingly.
