Detailed plot analysis:

================ Demei Kalai Wiring ===============

The Luoboan system detected a predicted divergence event in "Jakarta" where Sato is located;

Sato is having a small round table meeting. His position mentioned here? Does it mean William or Serak?

At the same time, Sato arranged for his men to send a metal box to a friend. What's in it?

Sato received a call from Hale, and Hale informed Sato that she had defected.

Plot analysis:
Hale's personality is independent, and the German girl is in the civil war. My previous analysis did speculate that it would proceed like this. But the current plot arrangement is indeed a bit abrupt, lacking the process of black girl's thought change. In the previous episode, his family was bombed by Serak, and when he turned around, he stood with Serak and betrayed German girl? Betray yourself?
When Demei copied the clone, she should have the consciousness of going to death. Just like Connors, he had installed an explosive device under his desk for a long time, so he judged that one day he would blew up to cover up his identity.
But Hale's performance seems to be ignorant of this. Even if it is completely substituted for Hale's personality setting, at least this kind of hatred should be facing Serak, right? Why are you facing Demei? Does Hale think that the bomb was installed by Demei? Or do you think that all these killings are caused by Demei? There is no sign of Hale's change of thought in the play, and suddenly there is an unpredictable mutiny.

Maeve's two good helpers cut off Sato's head directly and extracted the consciousness ball to understand all the plans of Demei.

At the same time, Demei and Caleb have already flown to Sonora, Mexico, which is the secret research institute of Serak.

Demei gave Caleb a shot and pushed Kaleb to the position of leader of the revolution.

Demei took out the black technology drone sniper rifle and directly knocked down all the security personnel of the secret research center.

After the two entered the secret research institute, Kaleb recalled his past here.

This was originally the predecessor of the Roboan system, where the Solomon system was placed. (Solomon is Lobo Anta.) Because Solomon’s AI logic is affected by the schizophrenia of Brother Serak’s schizophrenia, there is a factor of instability, and he is locked in this secret research institute. At the same time, there is a military EMP installed beside it, which can be used at any time. Destroy the Solomon system.

Caleb recalled the whole thing:
Kaleb participated in the Russian Civil War in Crimea, and once again the team was wiped out except for his teammate Francis. After this incident, the two retired and returned to China, but the nature of the World Destroyer made them restless, and they would take over work on hacked software to make money. The hacking software is made by Serak, specifically for hacking software. (Guessed in the analysis of the first episode) The black engineering software is to let these world destroyers take the black work, and then eliminate other unstable factors.
In the next black job, the target is the world destroyer judged by the system. Caleb and Francis kidnapped him to an abandoned factory. When Francis went out to see the situation, the kidnapped told Caleb his identity and the truth about your being used by the system, and told Francis that he must have received the order to kill you.
In fact, when Francis was about to kill Caleb, Caleb shot Francis in advance.
The Serak Behavior Correction Center brainwashed Kaleb repeatedly with AR+ drugs, tampering with his memory, making him think that his companion had died on the battlefield. In this way, Caleb was reinvested in society as a successful trial for correction.

The success rate of this correction is only 10%, and the other 90% are marked as "missing" or dead. Either he was really dead, or he was frozen by Serak in this secret research institute.

Among them, the people who were frozen included Serak’s brother, Shangmi. According to Serak, because these people are factors of social instability, they can only be placed here and wait for better gene therapy in the future before they can be treated.

This can be seen in Serak’s message to his brother.

Plot analysis: It can be seen from this that Serak's approach is relatively mild, at least not all of them are directly killed when frozen. Although the so-called treatment in the future is also an anti-human treatment of modifying personality.

Demei asked Solomon's system to call out the assassination strategy formulated by Chaumet before freezing and adjust it to the plan that is currently being executed. The executor is Caleb.

Plot analysis: It was when Liam's father came to the institute in the 5th episode of Serak's memories, Serak said that his brother had developed a strategy to assassinate Liam's father. In short, no matter who this assassination strategy is aimed at, Demei requires the system to be adjusted to the plan to assassinate Serak.

At this time, the tool person Maeve learned of Demei's plan based on the content in the Sato Consciousness Ball, so he rushed to the institute by plane. However, it was Maeve alone who arrived here. His secret research institute was attacked, and Serakdor did not send a single soldier. Serak, how great is your experience?

After an awkward chat, the two began to fight.

Plot analysis: The screenwriter has always wanted to give Maeve a reason to be hostile to De Sister, but so far, these reasons are too pale. It can only be said that Maeve exists as a hostile tool attribute of De Sister in this season.

When Maeve and Demei couldn't deal with each other, the Solomon system finally adjusted the strategy and passed it to the memory.

Plot analysis: The Solomon system not only stores the strategy on the pen drive, but also copies itself into it. The equivalent is that the Solomon system escaped the control of the institute.

Maeve cut off Demei's arm, Demei fled back to Solomon's system, and saw that the system had transmitted the information, so she turned on EMP directly, and the two fell to the ground at the same time.

Plot analysis: Demei saw that the strategy has been passed, and only then turned on EMP and Maeve died together.

The Solomon system began to instruct Caleb on how to execute the strategy. Kaleb saw the German girl in the end, and was outraged.

Plot analysis: The voice that communicates with Caleb is the Solomon system, which means that Solomon has been stored on the pen drive.

================ William Bernard Line ===============

He turned his attention to the mental hospital where William was.

Bernard informed Hale about the effects of injecting the virus in William's body.

Plot analysis:
The analysis in the previous episode said that William’s hospital site and Serak’s Secret Research Institute seem to be different, but Demei’s plan still seems to refer to the same place. This episode finally gives an answer, the two are really not the same place. But they should all belong to Serak’s property.
After the virus in William's blood invaded the system of the mental hospital, he found the location of Serak's Secret Research Center, so Demei and Kaleb knew the location and rushed past.
The location of the mental hospital was informed by Connors to Bernard at the time. The purpose should be to let him download all the anomalous information.
Plot analysis: Bernard also investigated how Serak treated the outliers who could not be cured.

After the complete awakening of the first episode, William said that he was to be a good person, and then what he thought was the standard for a good person was to kill all the receptionists.

Plot analysis: Isn't this the return of the man in black in the Western World? How is it different from the original logic? What about awakening?

The screenwriter used Bernard's mouth to add settings to Demei. After slaughtering a German girl who didn't know how many humans were in the paradise, she suddenly had a "will not destroy humans" setting, and she forcibly added a drama to Kaleb.

Plot analysis:
The prediction of the first episode is to judge Caleb's humanity to let Demei feel the beauty of human beings and prevent Demei from destroying humanity. Now the finale is directly transferred back, and the German girl wants to destroy the world through the hands of Kaleb. I am also helpless.

Bernard took William out of the mental hospital, and William took advantage of their carelessness to take the gun and threatened Bernard.

Plot analysis:
William said he was going to kill the receptionist, but he probably wouldn't do it. Otherwise, Bernard's line would be meaningless. The goals of William and Bernard are the same in a sense. William wants to kill the receptionist, and Bernard wants to stop the German sister. Okay, let's wait for the two to join forces in the next episode.

Plot summary:

Demei line progress:

Demei’s plan has been going well so far. Even if the loss of 3 clones did not affect her to reach the final goal, she got the strategy of assassinating Serak and destroying the world from the Solomon system and released the Solomon system.

There is another consciousness ball that Demei didn't use, or that the current Demei is only a clone, and Demei's real body has been hidden behind the scenes .

In the finale, the plan implemented by German girl and Caleb is Solomon's strategy, so it is estimated that German girl was tortured and Caleb was subdued from the trailer, etc., are probably part of Solomon's strategy.

Solomon may have been stored in the German Sister Consciousness Sphere. When the Luoboan system is ready to extract the content of the German Sister Consciousness Sphere, the Solomon system directly seizes the Sheroboan system to control everything. When Serak was triumphant, it was the time of its demise.

However, once Solomon, an artificial intelligence with the nature of schizophrenia, gains power, will he join forces with Demei to destroy mankind, or it may be possible to even eliminate Demei, because the idea of ​​schizophrenia is difficult to predict.

Bernard progress:

The Bernard line has always been babbling, and it is an important part of Demei's plan. But what exactly does it do? Can't guess it so far. Is it to release William, and then work with William to prevent German sister from destroying the world?

Final summary:

Maybe it's because there are too few episodes this season. I saw that the screenwriter wanted to discuss some content, but they were all superficial and not in-depth, and a large amount of space was devoted to martial arts that they were not good at. The core of the Western World itself is a bit of deep philosophical thinking, and the third season compromised for the market, and it began to gradually change its direction like popcorn.

The reaction expected in the first episode did not see the resistance of the people from the bottom to the top after waking up. What they saw was the anarchy after the world was in chaos. The expected changes in the personality of the German girl did not reflect much. Hale's transformation. With strong tool attributes, Demei has not changed her mind from beginning to end.

Seeing the news that Westworld has renewed the fourth season, I hope the screenwriter and director can calm down. Even if it is not made into the second season, the timeline recorded messy brain-burning drama, at least the topic can be discussed more deeply. Some.

Next week will usher in the finale of the season. I hope that there will be fewer fireworks and more controversy.
