Warning: The following contains full spoilers for the Westworld Season 4 episode "Generation Loss," which aired on July 17 on HBO.
To read our review of last week's Westworld episode, "Annees Folles," click here.
Westworld hurled us headlong into a horrific future in "Generation Loss," a wickedly exciting chapter filled with answers about Season 4's diabolical machinations, acting as a tableau that portrays a truly grim depiction of humanity as the scrappy remnants of our species fight to end global enslavement at the cruel hands of A.I. overlord Charlotte “Dolores” Hale.
So. Much. Happened.
So then… the weapon buried in the desert is Maeve, Caleb's now stuck in a horrific cycle of fidelity checks to see if his future copy is a faithful replication of his old self, and the "tower" that was spoken of (and drawn) in Christina's story turns out to be the giant controlling beacon that lords over all society. That means her storyline is als...
...the new present? (with Bernard's story)
...the future? (past Bernard's story)
...the Sublime
No, the "hosts" in The Golden Age park weren't actual humans, as pondered last week, but the humans of the future certainly are. And the guests of The Golden Age were filled with flies as part of Hale's bid to have the park be the "super-spreader event of the century." We'd learn later also that children would absorb the flies more easily, making full control over humanity take a generation to firmly grab hold, and that, as with every virus, some people were naturally resistant or immune (like Caleb's bloodline, apparently).
"Generation Loss" was sinister in all the right ways. Sure, some of the twists were spottable but satisfying will beat shocking any day of the week. The main goal is to give us a story that flows well, honors the characters, and gets our dander up. This was an infuriating episode, meant in the best way possible. With this being the Infinity War of the season -- or series, even -- the scope of Bernard's quest falls into place.
Bullets flew and explosions erupted in the strongest episode of the season (so far).
And why does James Marsden's new Teddy, who Christina had a very sweet date with, seem like he does know what's going on behind the veil? He claims to have been a "bounty hunter with a heart of gold," and says it in a knowing way, as if he half-expected Christina to know what he's talking about. Still, we got so many answers this week that any big ...
"Generation Loss" brought two big storylines together (while also tethering the third) in an action-packed, emotional ride filled with harrowing answers and harsh revelations. Love is still the background radiation here -- whether it's Maeve and Caleb or in Christina's story -- and that allows Westworld to not fully sink into a torrent of desolatio...
