Spoiler!

My question would be how come the gun didn't affect the Man in Black when he was shot? I guess we have never seen host on host violence, but it would create the need to explain why when a "newcomer" wields a weapon there are results, but not a host. They would then have to explain why the Man in Black's weapon kills hosts. Maybe he got his hands on a newcomer's gun, and only those guns kill hosts? That'll be interesting to see play out.

Also, I wonder if the "maze" is the exit from Westworld. The deeper level of games he desires could be inflicting his sadistic games upon a wider, less predictive population of victims.

I don't remember the character's name, but I got the feeling the head developer (the guy always talking to Anthony Hopkins) has some involvement in the development of this glitch. His interaction with Deloris was extremely odd, especially where he said he found her new behaviors fascinating, but others may disagree. Is he giving them more cognizant capabilities and telling no one what he is doing?
