So, through 7 episodes this season is everything right back where we started?
Maeve and Lee started out at the Mesa, with Maeve determined to find her daughter somewhere in the park(s)! Now, at the end of episode 7, the only difference is now Maeve is shot up, but otherwise, back at the Mesa, Maeve still determined to find her daughter somewhere in the park(s)!
In the first episode, Dolores and Teddy are on a mission to get to the valley beyond. Seven episodes later, and they're still on their mission to the valley beyond! Teddy has been 'upgraded' to a killing machine, but other than that, not much has changed.
William starts out shot and left for dead... now he is shot more and more left for dead.
Episode 1, Charlotte cares only about the company, to hell with everyone else! All that matter is recovering the data in Abernathy's head. End of episode 7, right back to the same spot.
Bernard starts out confused, missing memories, stumbling around... yup, that's where he's at again.
We even begin this season not knowing what has become of Elsie, Felix, Sylvester, Armistice or Hector. Hey, it's the end of episode 7 and all of these characters are missing or abandoned again!
Three episodes to go this season and the plot has barely moved. Other than the great episode with James Delos and young William, this season has been pretty disappointing to me.
