Recap

It sure looks like Mr. Delos is alive well into the future. Fifteen years if Delos is remembering things right.

We even get to see him jacking off.

Ah. William shows up to his place. He's there to establish a baseline. This is hinky. Delos can't pour his coffee right. Something is up.

William hands Delos a piece of paper.

When William is Bill, he comes across a bunch of railroad builders using humans to continue the railroad when they run out of pieces for it.

Bernard finds Elsie who is alive and has been held captive. Bernard tells her he has a cognitive lock, and hands her the pad he's carrying. It says cognitive lock. She attempts to fix him.

Bernard wakes and can see things from his other life? that allows him to do miraculous things.

Bernard and Elsie are in the lab where he and Charlotte Hale were previously. He recalls being there.

Grace is with a bunch of other captives, including Stubbs. He says he can try to get her out of there when ... but she's not looking to get out of there.

When Bill arrives at Lawrence's hometown, the bartender is already shaking. It's because Craddock is there and he takes Bill and Lawrence into the church where he's holding others, including Lawrence's family.

Delos is dancing, doing pretty much the same thing he did the last time. Except this time William is older. It's almost line for line the same conversation. The paper William hands to Delos is a a transcript of their previous conversation.

He made it to day seven before glitching out.

Bill watches Craddock put a glass onto the bartender's hand and make him walk with it after Craddock notices his unsteady hand. When the man makes it 15 paces and turns around, Craddock blows off his hand, a gesture so cruel it even makes Bill wince.

Back at the indians, Grace gets away and an indian threatens Stubbs.

Bernard's memories aren't addressed, so he has no idea whether they come before or after the others.

Bernard knows they are not making hosts in that lab. The code is similar, but the code is not code at all.

Elsie believes whatever they were making is behind a locked door and tries to get in. Bernard warns her not to go there.

The next time William visits Delos, he's Bill. Delos still didn't pour the cream with a steady hand. That must be why he was eventually kicked out of the company. His inability to fully recognize life after death.

Delos' mind rejects reality, rejects itself every time. He's been rebuilt 149 times and only lasted 35 days at the longest.

This time, Bill tells Delos everyone is dead. His wife, his daughter, his long-time second hand. The man goes nuts and Bill suggests they continue observing him. The information might be useful.

Elsie finally gets inside. The record is playing and the place is trashed. The kid who was helping is dead on the floor. Delos is riding his bike as usual. His face is cut to shreds and he's holding a piece of glass in his hand. He starts toward Elsie.

Elsie incinerates the place. Bernard knows why Ford sent him. He had him print a control unit for someone else. Another human.

Just as Elsie decides to trust Bernard, he recalls what he did in that room issuing the kill code for everyone in it and ensuring nobody lived to know what he had taken.

For all the times Bill had killed Lawrence's wife, this time he saved her and killed everyone else.

Still, Lawrence's daughter tells him one good deed won't wipe away his entire past. He said he's just playing the game they want him to play. She says if he's still looking forward, he's still not playing the game right.

Out in the plains, Grace rides up to Bill. Hi, dad.

Bernard: Is this now?
Elsie: You have extensive cortical damage. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you shot yourself.

You rotated out. Where did you go when you rotated out? You have a family. You have a wife. You have a ... backstory.

Elsie
