Well, that didn't answer a whole lot. Still a good, eerie episode, but I'm dying for conclusive answers.
Another shot of the old logo when Bernard goes down to the basement and logs onto the old computer.
I can actually see why the asian morgue guy was sucked up in his fascination of her being awake, but what I don't get is this company that clearly has a ton of money and security, HOW ON EARTH did he walk around with her through the levels without getting caught?And I dunno, this was first episode that made me think the show may have jumped the shark. Why the hell are these techs letting a host tell them what to do. Just power it off and secure erase its memory, or just report it to QA and let them do it. When in doubt, restart. If that dont work reformat! I'm as curious as the next nerd, but there is something truly pathetic about a nerd letting a machine tell it what to do because its naked. lol Having a WTF is going on conversation with the host is one thing, but when it starts bossing you around and threatens to shank someone its time to pull the plug.
They commented that doing a full wipe would be too expensive so you would have to assume doing a format like that would be beyond their control or easily found out and get them in trouble especially for a important character it seems in the "storylines" they have running.It actually seems like this TV show is an actual sequel to the movie. I'm pretty sure the Yul Byrnner model was in the background in the office of the abandoned floor Bernard was in looking for anomalies. Maybe I should watch Futureworld and Beyond Westworld.

I was wondering about that when the Main in Black discussed with Ford about having thwarted Arnold's plan to take down the park. To be clear, I haven't seen the original movie, so I can't be truly certain. However, I assume that the robot uprising in the original was quelled somehow, and if there was human involvement, the current Man in Black would be part of that. I don't know if the movie revealed why it happened, but if not, they could easily retcon that Arnold did it. (Obviously, whether Arnold existed in the movie, I don't know.)
I think you guys are trying too much to over complicate matters. When the hosts are talking to the employees, it is just during maintenance down times when they've stepped away from the customers (e.g. everyone goes to sleep, and host gets up and walks to the offices for maintenance/chat time). They seem to play a little fast and loose with the showing repeated loops and the variations in the middle of what we know are single loops for other hosts currently associating with guests, but they could just as easily say "all hosts not currently in a separate narrative with a guest or group of guests repeat their groundhog day opening loop for [reasons]"
Its possibly too expensive to do it every time a host needs to be serviced, but this is completely different. How can they get in trouble for reporting this? Hey, this host woke up and starting talking when it should be shutdown. Somethings wrong with it. Needs to be fixed. You dont need to say any more than that. He can leave out of the part where he is learning to program on the bird and/or screwing the hosts. And if they absolutely had to preserve the memories, I'm sure there is some fancy version control system to roll her back to a previous state.
One thing that slipped my mind, there were five episodes of a Westworld TV show.
is that supposed to be one guy with three different haircuts?
