hey guys do you like breakdowns of your
favorite shows check out our new show
watch club where we break down shows
like West world and some of your other
favorites enjoy
welcome to mojo talks and this is watch
club the show where we break down the
biggest shows on TV I am your host Matt
and this is Phoebe and we’re gonna talk
about Westworld season 2 episode 2 which
was titled reunion
directed by vit directed I should say by
vincenzo natali and written by Carly Rae
and Jonathan Nolan so I mean let’s just
jump into our favorite moments Phoebe so
how about how about you start things off
okay no problem
this was a great episode I really really
enjoyed it I think I’d have to say that
my favorite part was were the flashbacks
that the rice was having so the episode
opens with her and Arnold in the city
and she’s looking over like the
cityscape and she’s like completely
dumbfounded by the beauty of it all so I
thought that that was really interesting
to see her character outside of West
world and sort of in the real world yeah
exactly and it’s also really cool to see
how she’s sort of cognizant of all the
things that have happened to her she’s
slowly remembering these things that
have happened to her mm-hmm and she
remembers what the outside world looks
like she even says in the episode like
I’ve been there yeah that was really
cool they weren’t exactly just like
random flashbacks they always drew back
to the main story exactly and these were
like you said the the information that
she retains so that was exactly yeah
that was really really cool um I also
really liked when Dolores and Maeve
finally met up yes I was a little bit
disappointed I realized they have
differing ideologies when I come to the
revolution or whatever but I really
wanted them to sort of be like you know
two ladies like killing it in the rebel
yeah it didn’t work out that way but I
thought that their encounter was really
really interesting yeah you can tell
that there was like tension too it’s
just there’s the moment when may was
just like well if you’re just looking
for justice and stuff like that then
then that means you could just let me
pass and that’s fine and you can tell
that like Horace was a little annoyed
with that and it’s funny it’s like I
don’t know if you felt the same way but
it almost seemed like it was like a
crossover event you know obviously
they’re in the same show but when they
finally got together
it just felt like two worlds colliding
it was like really different storylines
and sort of again different should
trajectory for their ideology so I
thought that that was really cool and
it’s true that it sort of felt like a
crossover within the same yeah you know
world which was really really cool yeah
on my end my favorite moments flashbacks
were a big one because we saw two
returning characters that might not have
a very big prominent role this season
because it all happened in the past but
Logan came back and is like much of a
douche bag character he was I always
loved seeing him and on seeing him on
screen so when he came back I was super
stoked and we even found out that like
his last name is Delos which is pretty
crazy when that happened I was like what
yeah okay this took a little bit of a
different shift here so my favorite part
was just like the whole West world pitch
you know he goes to the restaurant and
he sees like the first robot and then
they go to this private party and just
like wait a minute
this isn’t a private event like look at
all these people like take a little
closer look so I thought that was really
awesome and basically I just love all
the pitch scenes because Jimmy Simpsons
character makes a return as well and
there’s a scene when he’s talking to
Logan’s dad who’s gonna be like the main
investor in all this and he’s just
saying oh if you don’t see like the
potential in this then you’re not the
business man that I thought you were you
know it’s pretty cheeky yeah exactly
and it shows just how dark his character
can be to you yeah I really liked the
sort of dichotomy before between like
the first season William and like this
sort of darker William right like him
becoming the man in black yeah I which I
thought was really cool because like
Jimmy Simpson who’s one of my favorite
actors like he’s so underrated it’s
great like completely again it was
really like you know he was very creepy
and there was a scene where his wife had
you know pulled their child away from
Dolores so I guess that she knows that
he sort of had a love affair with this
you know host and he you know he’s like
very bitter about it and and he wakes
her up in the lab and he’s like kind of
giving her shit you know like saying
like oh you’re nothing you’re not a
thing and yeah it’s like she remembers
all of it so it’s so it’s make just
makes it so much yeah and he tries to be
like so demoralizing to
the fact that she’s completely naked is
like when when Bernard talks to her
she’s always dressed you know he treats
her with respect so yeah yeah that was
pretty interesting and it’s fun that you
mentioned that whole Delores piano scene
I think you you’ll you’ll talk about
that a little bit in though what you
missed section which is actually coming
up next
[Music]
all right so this is a segment we call
what you missed
and it’s basically at self explanatory
it’s what you might have missed when you
were watching the show so if he was
gonna get us started off there a couple
things she wanted to make sure that you
guys caught wind of so yeah so basically
I don’t know if anybody else noticed I
certainly did and I think that you did
as well perhaps um in the scene where
Logan is being introduced well not
really introduced he’s having the demo
with we’re yeah you know in the room
with the people at the party and there’s
someone on the piano when he walks by
the piano we see a character and he’s
staring at him trying to figure out
whether or not he’s a host and the guy’s
kind of like looking back at him giving
him a bit of like a dirty look yeah that
was really cool
yeah later in the episode we meet this
character again when Dolores approaches
the Confederate oohs and they’re all
eating dinner together he’s actually the
main spokesperson on behalf of this
group so that was really interesting I
don’t know what the link is there but I
think that that is a very interesting
new character I have a little link
that’s associated with that but I’ll let
you get to your second what she missed
and then I’m gonna I’m gonna jump in my
second one I missed is a little bit
different so in the first season we know
that Abernathy finds a photo of a woman
and it sort of makes him go crazy yeah
um so this photo was actually a Getty
stock photo that the show used as a pro
pet in the first season the woman who
was in the stock photo did not know that
you know this photo was being used in
such an amazing show when she found out
she was super flattered she was really
excited to be a part of it and they
actually asked her to come back for the
second season and being in the show as
an actress
her name is Claire Naevia sorry if I’m
not pronouncing that right she actually
plays Williams wife in this episode so
as we said earlier she sort of yells at
her daughter to come back from talking
to Dolores yeah so that’s a really
interesting tidbit of information it’s
interesting I did not catch on to that
that has like a lot of layers to it
that’s very lot of layers so there’s a
couple of things I think that the
audience missed and you touched upon it
briefly is the the guy who was like
standing next to the
and when like he’s kind of scouting him
out he was obviously at the that’s that
that table where they’re eating dinner
and stuff he’s a leader of the
Confederate oohs but as we enter as
Dolores enters and her group it’s like a
nice wide shot of this long table and I
don’t know if you guys noticed but it
looks eerily similar to a famous
painting by Leonardo da Vinci called the
Last Supper so I don’t know if you guys
mentioned or if you notice that I should
say and like what does it symbolize is
it just like a cool kind of biblical
shot does it symbolize a resurrection I
think it does and I also have a theory /
prediction about that for later but I’m
gonna tease you guys with that I’m not
gonna tell you exactly what it is just
yet and the second what you missed is
mister Kanye West who’s been kind of all
over the news lately and he’s been in
West world too
season one it’s no secret that West Road
likes kind of putting together acoustic
piano versions of popular songs they
didn’t would like Radiohead they did it
with the Rolling Stones and they did it
with Kanye West this time with the song
runaway great song and there’s even a
quote where who says it again yes Logan
he’s just like that’s when he’s like by
the water and he’s just like here’s to
the assholes and it’s just like nice
little reference to that yeah yeah not
sure if you guys caught on to those but
we’re letting you know so keep those in
mind moving forward they could come into
play later so I guess we’re gonna jump
into our predictions next
if he wants to get to glory he’s going
to have to listen to me Laurie Ali
beyond
[Music]
like everyone’s got a different name for
it and they’re all bound for the same
destination so I had talked about
Resurrection before at the whole kind of
Last Supper scene and my prediction is
basically or you remember the scene it
was actually one of my favorite scenes
of the episode is when the man in black
meets el Lazo and he’s trying to
convince him and his people to join his
cause to go to the Great Valley beyond
whatever they call it and basically he
says you know no I don’t want to do it
and he has all of his men turned the
guns on their own heads and they all
kill themselves and before he kills
himself he says I’ll see you in the
valley beyond William and then he takes
it he takes a man in blacks gun and
shoots himself so I think and we’ve seen
this even in like Episode one where like
William is or not William sorry Robert
Robert Ford is talking to him through
like these characters he talked him
through the little kid I think that’s
him talking through him through L Lazo
and the fact that he says I’ll see you
in the valley beyond makes me think that
the valley beyond is this other kind of
lab where they collect all of the guests
DNA and stuff like that I talked about
that previously in the last episode as
well so I think this is like the main
place where they harvest all of that
stuff and obviously super rich super
important people go to this West world
and I think they harvest their DNA and
it’s possible that some of these people
maybe even die in the park but they
recreate them as robots and put them
back into the real world so that’s my
prediction that’s it’s a pretty big one
maybe it doesn’t happen maybe it does
but I’m hoping it does it’s a pretty
bold prediction on my part I think there
were a lot of clues in this episode that
the valley beyond is sort of like
literal and figurative yeah and I think
that’s a really really interesting sort
of tidbit yeah but I really liked in
this episode and what I think will
happen possibly in the next episode or
episodes to follow we talked about this
last week where we see you know the
great body of water that has all of
these hosts floating in it yes so this
episode season 2 episode 2 we see that
Dolores has the capacity essentially to
raise these hosts from the dead
yes giving me total zombie vibes and I’m
here for it I’m obsessed it’s creepy
right I love it yeah I love it when they
raise the Confederate oh and he’s like
he his face is all bloody and his eyes
are weird it’s really really cool yeah
um so anyway I think that maybe we’re
seeing from the first episode when
Bernard and the Delos agents yeah are
looking over into the water seeing all
of these dead hosts it’s really
disturbing right I think that like I
said last week it’s a trap and I think
that showing that Dolores has the
capacity to raise these hosts from the
dead essentially is just like gonna be
her army and she’s just gonna go yeah
that’s crazy yeah I think that would be
so cool I didn’t even think of that but
I think that might happen yeah that’s
crazy cuz all of the agents are there
oh man that that’s like Game of Thrones
night king guys or he just break oh my
god that is crazy
yeah all right so that basically wraps
it up guys thanks so much for watching

welcome to mojo talks and this is watch

biggest shows on TV I am your host Matt
and this is Phoebe and we’re gonna talk
about Westworld season 2 episode 2 which
was titled reunion
directed by vit directed I should say by
vincenzo natali and written by Carly Rae
and Jonathan Nolan so I mean let’s just
jump into our favorite moments Phoebe so
how about how about you start things off
okay no problem
this was a great episode I really really
enjoyed it I think I’d have to say that
my favorite part was were the flashbacks
that the rice was having so the episode
opens with her and Arnold in the city
and she’s looking over like the
cityscape and she’s like completely
dumbfounded by the beauty of it all so I
thought that that was really interesting
to see her character outside of West
world and sort of in the real world yeah
exactly and it’s also really cool to see
how she’s sort of cognizant of all the
things that have happened to her she’s
slowly remembering these things that
have happened to her mm-hmm and she
remembers what the outside world looks
like she even says in the episode like
I’ve been there yeah that was really
cool they weren’t exactly just like
random flashbacks they always drew back
to the main story exactly and these were
like you said the the information that
she retains so that was exactly yeah
that was really really cool um I also
really liked when Dolores and Maeve
finally met up yes I was a little bit
disappointed I realized they have
differing ideologies when I come to the
revolution or whatever but I really
wanted them to sort of be like you know
two ladies like killing it in the rebel
yeah it didn’t work out that way but I
thought that their encounter was really
really interesting yeah you can tell
that there was like tension too it’s
just there’s the moment when may was
just like well if you’re just looking
for justice and stuff like that then
then that means you could just let me
pass and that’s fine and you can tell
that like Horace was a little annoyed
with that and it’s funny it’s like I
don’t know if you felt the same way but
it almost seemed like it was like a
crossover event you know obviously
they’re in the same show but when they
finally got together
it just felt like two worlds colliding
it was like really different storylines
and sort of again different should
trajectory for their ideology so I
thought that that was really cool and
it’s true that it sort of felt like a
crossover within the same yeah you know
world which was really really cool yeah
on my end my favorite moments flashbacks
were a big one because we saw two
returning characters that might not have
a very big prominent role this season
because it all happened in the past but
Logan came back and is like much of a
douche bag character he was I always
loved seeing him and on seeing him on
screen so when he came back I was super
stoked and we even found out that like
his last name is Delos which is pretty
crazy when that happened I was like what
yeah okay this took a little bit of a
different shift here so my favorite part
was just like the whole West world pitch
you know he goes to the restaurant and
he sees like the first robot and then
they go to this private party and just
like wait a minute
this isn’t a private event like look at
all these people like take a little
closer look so I thought that was really
awesome and basically I just love all
the pitch scenes because Jimmy Simpsons
character makes a return as well and
there’s a scene when he’s talking to
Logan’s dad who’s gonna be like the main
investor in all this and he’s just
saying oh if you don’t see like the
potential in this then you’re not the
business man that I thought you were you
know it’s pretty cheeky yeah exactly
and it shows just how dark his character
can be to you yeah I really liked the
sort of dichotomy before between like
the first season William and like this
sort of darker William right like him
becoming the man in black yeah I which I
thought was really cool because like
Jimmy Simpson who’s one of my favorite
actors like he’s so underrated it’s
great like completely again it was
really like you know he was very creepy
and there was a scene where his wife had
you know pulled their child away from
Dolores so I guess that she knows that
he sort of had a love affair with this
you know host and he you know he’s like
very bitter about it and and he wakes
her up in the lab and he’s like kind of
giving her shit you know like saying
like oh you’re nothing you’re not a
thing and yeah it’s like she remembers
all of it so it’s so it’s make just
makes it so much yeah and he tries to be
like so demoralizing to
the fact that she’s completely naked is
like when when Bernard talks to her
she’s always dressed you know he treats
her with respect so yeah yeah that was
pretty interesting and it’s fun that you
mentioned that whole Delores piano scene
I think you you’ll you’ll talk about
that a little bit in though what you
missed section which is actually coming
up next
[Music]
all right so this is a segment we call
what you missed
and it’s basically at self explanatory
it’s what you might have missed when you
were watching the show so if he was
gonna get us started off there a couple
things she wanted to make sure that you
guys caught wind of so yeah so basically
I don’t know if anybody else noticed I
certainly did and I think that you did
as well perhaps um in the scene where
Logan is being introduced well not
really introduced he’s having the demo
with we’re yeah you know in the room
with the people at the party and there’s
someone on the piano when he walks by
the piano we see a character and he’s
staring at him trying to figure out
whether or not he’s a host and the guy’s
kind of like looking back at him giving
him a bit of like a dirty look yeah that
was really cool
yeah later in the episode we meet this
character again when Dolores approaches
the Confederate oohs and they’re all
eating dinner together he’s actually the
main spokesperson on behalf of this
group so that was really interesting I
don’t know what the link is there but I
think that that is a very interesting
new character I have a little link
that’s associated with that but I’ll let
you get to your second what she missed
and then I’m gonna I’m gonna jump in my
second one I missed is a little bit
different so in the first season we know
that Abernathy finds a photo of a woman
and it sort of makes him go crazy yeah
um so this photo was actually a Getty
stock photo that the show used as a pro
pet in the first season the woman who
was in the stock photo did not know that
you know this photo was being used in
such an amazing show when she found out
she was super flattered she was really
excited to be a part of it and they
actually asked her to come back for the
second season and being in the show as
an actress
her name is Claire Naevia sorry if I’m
not pronouncing that right she actually
plays Williams wife in this episode so
as we said earlier she sort of yells at
her daughter to come back from talking
to Dolores yeah so that’s a really
interesting tidbit of information it’s
interesting I did not catch on to that
that has like a lot of layers to it
that’s very lot of layers so there’s a
couple of things I think that the
audience missed and you touched upon it
briefly is the the guy who was like

looks eerily similar to a famous
painting by Leonardo da Vinci called the
Last Supper so I don’t know if you guys

it just like a cool kind of biblical

the assholes and it’s just like nice
little reference to that yeah yeah not
sure if you guys caught on to those but
we’re letting you know so keep those in
mind moving forward they could come into
play later so I guess we’re gonna jump
into our predictions next
if he wants to get to glory he’s going
to have to listen to me Laurie Ali
beyond
[Music]
like everyone’s got a different name for
it and they’re all bound for the same
destination so I had talked about
Resurrection before at the whole kind of
Last Supper scene and my prediction is
basically or you remember the scene it
was actually one of my favorite scenes

this episode and what I think will
happen possibly in the next episode or
episodes to follow we talked about this
last week where we see you know the
great body of water that has all of
these hosts floating in it yes so this
episode season 2 episode 2 we see that
Dolores has the capacity essentially to
raise these hosts from the dead
yes giving me total zombie vibes and I’m
here for it I’m obsessed it’s creepy
right I love it yeah I love it when they
raise the Confederate oh and he’s like
he his face is all bloody and his eyes
are weird it’s really really cool yeah

Bernard and the Delos agents yeah are

said last week it’s a trap and I think
that showing that Dolores has the
capacity to raise these hosts from the
dead essentially is just like gonna be
her army and she’s just gonna go yeah
that’s crazy yeah I think that would be
so cool I didn’t even think of that but
I think that might happen yeah that’s
crazy cuz all of the agents are there
oh man that that’s like Game of Thrones
night king guys or he just break oh my
god that is crazy
