Wow, these last two episodes have been killing it! Newton and Wood got to show off their acting skills last time around and now Wood and Wright show off their superb acting skills.

After all this waiting, it is so great to finally see Elsie back, and she's as entertaining as ever. Felt she and Bernard had great chemistry together. Although we all saw it coming that Delos was trying to create immortality, I thought the fidelity testing sequences were well done, both sympathetic and creepy at times. The drone massacre and the big fight with James Delos have to be some of the most memorable action sequences on the show.

Although William's story-line was less flashy, It was interesting to see his morality slowly shift based on a lifetime of regrets. I loved the brief bits of imagery of his wife's suicide allowing us to infer. Also, the big gunfight at the end didn't hurt things any.

With a mystery human host out there, William's daughter meeting him, and Elsie and Bernard teaming up, I'm looking forward to what comes next.
