History Recap / WestworldS03E06Decoherence

* CloningBlues: Host Charlotte tells Dolores that she's worried about her family being targeted by Serac. Dolores tells her they're not really her family, but Host Charlotte is still conflicted. The Dolores that was Martin, likewise, admits that she and the real Dolores have drifted apart.

Maeve is brought back into Warworld and while waiting for her body to be rebuilt, she manages to restore Hector's memories. Then, she, Hector and Sizemore interrogate a copy of Dolores who initially resided in Martin's host body. Dolores refuses to answer Maeve's questions and tells her that she already planned ahead, revealing that Charlotte destroys Hector's pearl.

Charlotte's attempt to stop the Delos buyout fails and Serac orders all host data erased and their bodies burnt. Charlotte backs up the host data but is forced to flee when Serac outs her as a host because he knows that the real Charlotte doesn't care about her son. After Serac tells her that Dolores intends her to be expendable, Charlotte fights her way out of Delos's corporate headquarters. But before she goes, Charlotte destroys Hector's pearl, who along with several other hosts, are being rebuilt to aid Maeve in stopping Delores. But as Charlotte and her family escape in a car to flee the city, Serac has a bomb planted in the vehicle which exploded, killing her ex and son.

* BottomlessMagazines: When Host Charlotte takes a pistol out of the safe in her office she does not take any spare magazines. During her escape from Delos she fires, at a ''minimum'', 14 shots out of a pistol that has a magazine capacity of 13 rounds plus 1 in the chamber (which she must have had as she shot at the Serac hologram without racking the slide when she put the magazine back in the gun). The pistol should have locked open on the empty magazine when she shot one of the security guards as she finally got outside of the building, right before the riot control robot burst through the doors. Given the amount of shooting Host Charlotte did in her escape, she probably ran out of ammo several scenes before then.

* ThatsWhatIWouldDo: Connels!Dolores is not privy to the full scope of her prime self's plans, but they're similar enough that she guesses Dolores would have anticipated Maeve's interference and made contingency plans. Sure enough, Charlotte!Dolores shows up and tries to destroy Maeve's pearl, though she only gets as far as crushing Hector's before the guards drive her off.

After triggering people in his group therapy session with his nihilistic views on humanity, William is forced to participate in Augmented Reality therapy, with his past selves and James Delos. Confronted with his past selves, William is forced to confess that he was always a psychopath even as a child as he forced to admit to breaking another kid's arm and knocking out several of the child's teeth after the child called him and his father white trash. In response to being forced to admit that his wife was right about him having lied about being a poor, meek, bullied bookworm growing up and having used Logan and his sister's sympathy to worm his way into the Delos family and through them, power, William murders his past selves and vows to destroy Delores. Rescued by Bernard and Stubbs when the asylum is abandoned due to the chaos from the Incite leaks, William discovers that his blood had been spiked with nanites by Charlotte at some point in the past, so that when he was processed into the asylum, it would allow her access to the asylum's database to locate a particular facility. William vows to destroy every one of the hosts, including Bernard and Stubbs.

Charlotte's attempt to stop the Delos buyout fails and Serac orders all host data erased and their bodies burnt. Charlotte backs up the host data, but is forced to flee when a bit of out of character behavior (contacting her family to arrange for them to flee with her) is discovered and leads Serac to discover she is a host. Charlotte escapes from Delos's corporate headquarters as she realizes that Delores intends on leaving her to die. But before she goes, Charlotte destroys the pearl containing the mind of Hector, who along with several other hosts, are being rebuild to aid Maeve in stopping Delores. But as Charlotte and her family escape in a car to flee the city, Serac has a bomb planted in the vehicle explode, killing her ex and son.

As the world falls into chaos, Serac gains control of Delos, changing Charlotte's plan; Maeve gets one last chance to stop Dolores; William starts his therapy.

* TheBusCameBack: {{Zigzagged}}: the group therapy session with different versions of William from throughout his life allows for the return of Jimmi Simpson, who starred as Young!William in Season 1. However, since he and Ed Harris share the role, the character never left.

* TrojanHorse: Charlotte slipped a virus package into William's blood, designed to activate as soon as they scanned a sample. This allows her to locate the main processing facility and relay its location to Dolores.

* OneManArmy: Maeve takes out a whole squad of German soldiers.

* SpottingTheThread: Serac claims that the real Charlotte would never have cared so much for her family, although the real Charlotte's VideoWill seems to contradict this.

* GodivaHair: Used to keep Dolores' nakedness in check when she is interviewed by Maeve.

* ManBitesMan: William bites one of the orderlies' [[{{Fingore}} finger off]].

* YankTheDogsChain: After completing Dolores' mission of extracting the Host manufacturing data from Delos and narrowly escaping from Serac's men, Host!Charlotte leaves the city with her family but then her car explodes. She survives but her husband and son are killed by, presumably, one of Serac's men, leaving her in grief.
