Ford's new narrative is basically recreating what went down with Arnold into a narrative loop, isn't it?
- Wyatt's a big part of the new narrative, and had strange ideas about what "this place" was for. He kind of sounds like Arnold.
- Teddy felt like he was being controlled by the devil himself when he was shooting the soldiers/townspeople. That sounds a lot like the kind of control Arnold could exhibit - or (like we've seen Maeve do) a self aware host who knows some of the verbal commands. Maybe a self aware host who killed Arnold? Like, say, Delores?
- Logan's been promoted to a colonel or general or whatever (paraphrasing his words). Teddy killed a general in his flashback to Escalante. Maybe Teddy's acting as a placeholder in this narrative...for William? William and Delores going on a rampage killing hosts in Escalante before William kills Logan?
Not sure where Maeve and Hector fit into all of this. Based on how the loops seem to work in the show, I wouldn't be surprised if their awareness is somehow used as part of Ford's narrative, wiping out docile hosts and "escaping" their prison and creator only to have it all part of a cruel narrative loop that replays over and over for them.
What a great ride this season has been.
