She awoke alongside the other stored hosts in the finale and stormed Ford's retirement party, gun in hand, but it was difficult to determine how aware she was of what was happening. After she was lobotomized and put out of commission in cold storage in Season 1, it seemed like the Clementine viewers knew was long gone. "Virtú e Fortuna" doesn't answer that question before it ends, and Clementine doesn't appear to be in a position to explain herself. But where is Clementine taking Bernard on Westworld? He was also stopped in his tracks by a zombified Clementine, who knocked him out and dragged him off before the episode ended. And that would be a finale that would leave Westworld fans panting for Season 3.When an explosion gave Bernard a chance to escape Dolores and her growing army in the third episode of Westworld's second season, he took it, but his increasing cognitive issues prevented him from getting too far. (Remember, hosts all have explosives hidden in their spines that will detonate should they attempt to leave Westworld.) If so, then when Clementine arrives and exerts her new power over the "hosts," she'll wind up destroying not the rebels Delos is gunning for, but simply empty shells - while Dolores and her compatriots make their escape through the Door in their new human bodies. One theory that could explain the blank CPUs is that the hosts have already uploaded their minds into the human bodies in order to escape the park, and swapped the humans' empty CPUs into their old host bodies. Given that Delos has been harvesting guest DNA for all these years, it's conceivable that the Forge also contains manufactured bodies for all of those consciousnesses to be imported into once the immortality technology is perfected. In "Vanishing Point," it's revealed that the Valley Beyond is home to something known as the Forge - basically a version of the Cradle that holds not backups of host programs, but copies of human consciousnesses. There are definitely still plenty of mysteries to be solved during the Season 2 finale, but if Clementine doesn't prove to be the rebellion's undoing, she may just turn out to be its accidental hero. ![]() Clementine is now essentially a virus, capable of infecting and killing hosts at Charlotte's whim.įirst of all, Teddy tragically kills himself at the end of "Vanishing Point" - so if the massacre is committed by Clementine, rather than being some ruse planned by Dolores, then how did Teddy's body end up with the rest? Why would Clem bother dragging his corpse into the lake along with the other hosts she murdered? And why would her death-by-mesh-network cause the hosts' CPUs to erase themselves? Like her former mentor, Clem can now use the mesh network to send commands with a mere thought except, in this case, her commands aren't to wake hosts up… but to have them violently murder each other. ![]() In Season 2's penultimate hour, "Vanishing Point," she uses Maeve's ability to install a disastrous new code inside Clementine. Judging from the effects of her new ability, Charlotte could either prove to be the violent downfall of Dolores' rebellion… or its unwitting savior.Īfter learning in Episode 8, "Kiksuya," that Maeve had been secretly communicating with and recoding other hosts through the mesh network, Charlotte exploited that knowledge to terrible ends. Clementine's new power on Westworld is just the next step in her tragic arc, from naïve sex worker to a scapegoat in corporate scheming, then from zombie-like acolyte to her current iteration as Charlotte Hale's pawn in her war against Dolores. ![]() ![]() Out of all the transformations viewers have seen over the years - Dolores into Wyatt, young William into the Man In Black, Lee Sizemore into a semblance of a sympathetic character - perhaps none have been as surprising as the journey of Maeve's Mariposa protégé. Spoilers ahead for the "Vanishing Point" episode of Westworld.
