After the "Riddle of the Sphinx" episode, I thought that peak Westworld was reached and - in my case - this was true. Then came this episode. At first it seemed to be a filler episode and I started to get frustrated. Man, was I wrong. Ake's journey - while heartbreaking and traumatizing - revealed what the awakening process really feels like. Just amazing. And the acting. Just great. Thank you for the episode.
