What do we learn from these new images? In the header photo, we see Evan Rachel Wood's character Dolores sporting a new button-up shirt with that shiny "chestnut" gun, but who is she pointing it towards?
We see her with the same shirt, seated at a table with a few cards laid out before her. Is she gambling? Is someone reading her fortune?
This third shot of Dolores shows her with William, but she's wearing her more traditional Alice In Wonderland blue dress. Both William and Dolores don't seem too happy.
Logan isn't pictured sitting with Dolores or William, but he appears to be at the same establishment with a grin on his face.
And another shot of William at the same location, he looks deep in thought. Did Logan screw him over in some way?
Ed Harris as The Man in Black, looking across the table at... well, we know from the trailer for this episode that Anthony Hopkins' character Doctor Ford is seated at the other side of this table. What is this epic meeting about?
The most interesting image of the set has to be of this young boy host, who we first saw talking Doctor Ford in the canyon. Some people have theorized that the boy is a host version of young Ford, but for what purpose?
Westworld Episode 5 is titled "Contrapasso," which is an Italian word translating to "suffer the opposite," referring to the punishment of souls in Dante's Inferno, "by a process either resembling or contrasting with the sin itself."
