"Metanoia" Trivia Quiz

Answer: The Sublime

Bernard and Maeve proceed to the Hoover Dam, exit their vehicle, and head out on foot with weapons in hand. Everyone assumed that the dam was purchased as an energy source specifically for the Delos parks, but it was never as it seemed. Dolores needed the hydroelectric server farm built inside to house the infinite-- the Sublime. That said, Hale was never able to access the Sublime without the key, and that's in Bernard's head. He initiates the process of opening the door and pours Maeve a glass of sherry.

Maeve realizes that there's both a lot at stake and also very little. While the fate of the Sublime is in their hands, both herself and Bernard are merely copies; their actual selves are already inside the Sublime. Bernard doesn't understate his exhaustion. After searching every possibility for the solution to their problem, each one ends in extinction for both humanity and the hosts. There is no avoiding the inevitable.

Answer: Destroy the tower

There is a small solution to save both Bernard and Maeve, and that involves finding the actual versions of themselves in the real world and uploading them to the Sublime directly. It would mean Bernard can rest and Maeve can be with her daughter. Maeve realizes that Bernard is, once again, playing God and expecting people to faithfully and blindly follow his lead. The truth is that Maeve, as she asserts, would probably normally abandon his cause if given the time to think on it.

In the Sublime, Akecheta reminds Bernard of where everything is leading. He sees where it all ends.

In another version of the events, Bernard and Maeve are attacked by a robot guard and Maeve quickly dispatches it. Instead of pouring Maeve a glass of sherry, Bernard tells her to keep her wits about her; there's more to be done and they need full attention. They can save humanity by destroying the tower. Maeve forces Bernard to promise he will upload her to the Sublime when they're through. As they depart for New York City, the door remains open behind them.

Answer: Charlotte

Christina awakens in her bed with a start to find that Teddy has spent the night watching her sleep. She still doesn't believe that she could have it in her to have control over humanity, but Teddy is there to reassure her and remind her of what she is-- a permutation of the original version of herself, of which there are many. Charlotte Hale is yet another of those permutations.

She refuses to believe she is Dolores or Hale or anyone else, but as she stares into her own reflection in the bathroom she wonders. Drawing a bath, she sinks beneath the surface and attempts to drown herself in the water, finding she can't.

Answer: Shut humanity down

In Olympiad Entertainment, a new copy of Caleb cries out and bangs against his cell. Charlotte demands a conversation with him as she tends to his wounds. If he doesn't chat, he can say goodbye to any chance of seeing his daughter again. Outside, William waits with a loaded gun. Charlotte recounts that back in Westworld, when a host broke down, it was sent to cold storage as an empty body. She's revising her plans and shutting down the cities. It will be humanity who gets placed in cold storage in the evening. He'll be bait for Frankie to join those being shut down.

When Charlotte leaves Caleb behind, she tells William it will be nice to have some quiet in the cities. He's surprised to hear the seriousness of her plan, but she insists it was necessary; more hosts have died in the past few days than have in the past several decades.

Answer: Olympiad Entertainment

In the park, Stubbs and Frankie prepare their weapons while they wait for Bernard and Maeve. Frankie apologizes to Odina for locking her away and the two share a moment before the hosts return. They head out, knowing Hale could send reinforcements.

The group makes it to New York without issue. While Frankie makes her way to Olympiad with Stubbs to locate her father, planning to head to Red Hook after to rendezvous and secure an escape boat, Bernard and Maeve head directly to the tower to fight Hale. Before they split off, Bernard regrets to tell Stubbs that he won't make it out alive, but he does tell him to 'go left at the fork'. As usual, he'll know when he gets there.

Charlotte, overseeing New York City from the tower, records a message for the people of the world to let them know that it is the final day for humanity in the cities, both as beings and in image; even the hosts will be required to leave behind their sentimental forms. It is the way in which they will ascend into the beings they were meant to become.

Answer: Host William

Host William returns to the cryogenics room to speak to his human self once again, thawing him out to complain that Hale wants to take his world away. It's her world, however, and William suggests to his host that it's hers to lord over. He tells his host that Hale effectively neutered him; his host forgot who he was.

The problem is that when humanity dies, everything else will as well. No one is there to transcend; they're there to destroy. William would destroy the world if given a chance, but it doesn't matter; there's a piece of him inside his host and that piece is infecting him.

There doesn't need to be two of him-- only one needs to be around to do what needs to be done. The host of William stabs his human form in the chest, killing him before departing.

Answer: Christina has all doors in the Olympiad building opened

As Christina and Teddy walk through Times Square, Christina admits she's not the person she thought she was. It's with that that the pair head to Olympiad Entertainment, where it all started for Christina. She instructs the guards to leave and controls the other workers in the building, narrating that they either depart or erase their narratives. Nothing in the office will remain when they're done.

En route to Olympiad themselves, Frankie and Stubbs contemplate how to get past the guards only to find the building being evacuated. They slip inside without notice.

Christina and Teddy, continuing into the labs of Olympiad, instruct the guards to open all doors in the building, in turn freeing Caleb from his cell.

Stubbs and Frankie ascend the building to find the cryo room. There, they come across the body of William, and while Frankie tries to help the man down, Stubbs is a little more hesitant. After all, William is the reason behind everything. They continue on, turning left at the fork in the corridors per Bernard's suggestion, and that's how they find the cells.

When Stubbs and Frankie reach the special project cells they find them empty but are attacked almost instantly by Caleb who, fearing them to be hostile, locks Stubbs away and pins Frankie to the wall. She reveals who she is and remarks on her father's agelessness before he calms himself.

Answer: True

Bernard and Maeve walk from the shore to the tower unimpeded, especially since Bernard has the encryption codes to shut down the riot control guards. Bernard reminds Maeve that there's no time to second guess; he has to get up to the control room while Maeve creates a distraction. She says it will all be worth it when Bernard has her reunited with her daughter, but he reveals the truth he couldn't say earlier-- no matter what they do, they can't win. There's no way to save this world, but they can save one tiny part of it, and that might be enough. The choice has to be Maeve's as to whether or not she continues.

In the control room, Charlotte watches as she has hosts transferred into their new forms. Taking her seat in front of her empty unit, she declares that she is ready for her own transfer, but she's interrupted by Maeve, who enters to start her distraction.

Answer: William

As Charlotte picks up a surgical device and prepares to fight, Maeve draws a knife and comments on the fact that no other hosts seem interested in the plan for transcendence. Charlotte isn't worried, however, as she left the Sublime open for a reason; the hosts will come to the realization that they, too, can inherit the world she's created. Maeve notes that Charlotte has kept her scars all these years, continuing to inhabit the traumatic loop that was not only kept for her, but that she kept insisting upon herself, but the words are only the precursor to a fight.

Though Maeve gets the upper hand, Charlotte receives support from one of her blank hosts and subdues her. Charlotte asks what she hopes to achieve, and Maeve admits that they never came to the city to win. Instead, they came to survive. What they do to stop Charlotte could save whoever comes next. The admission is stopped short when William, standing next to the fight, shoots Maeve unceremoniously in the back of the head. He tells Charlotte that it's now time to play his game-- Survival of the Fittest-- before shooting her in the head as well.

Answer: True

In the control room, Bernard records one last video, saying that if the recipient chooses to play one last game, they can't miss. He tells the listener to reach with their left hand before William arrives to interrupt, greeting Arnold's ghost. William wastes little time in shooting Bernard several times, letting him know he spent so long looking for meaning that he never remembered what it took to survive. It's all known to Bernard, however, as he understood since his discussion with Akecheta in the Sublime that he could only take a path to a particular ending. In every scenario, he knew he would die.

As William activates the frequency of the tower to start a battle royale amongst those under its control, he tells Bernard that the final game has begun. All that will remain when the dust settles are the cockroaches. As Bernard takes a bullet to the head, he passes through the door.

Stubbs, Frankie, and Caleb head into the city when the frequency sounds and all Hell breaks loose. As humans and hosts alike battle to the death, they continue with the plan. Frankie is shot, but the three manage to get to a safer path.

Christina and Teddy proceed as well and Christina finds that her powers of suggestion and narrative are overridden by the frequency from the tower. She tries to call out to people to stop, but Teddy needs to tell her the truth; they can't see her. The world around them is real, but she is not.

Donning his black hat and a revolver, William leaves the tower as it overcharges and explodes behind him.
