Our "Westworld" Deep Dives are always dense, but this one truly is a thicc-ass boi. In this breakdown of Season 4, Episode 7, Gene and Big D compare simulations to reality, dissect William's conversation with himself and ask why Bernard would leave The Door open.
"Metanoia" also leads the Shat Crew to explore who Bernard's video message was for, what Christina is, and why that one guy decided to set fire to his office.

Westworld Episode 7 Summary:
Bernard and
Maeve travel to Hoover Dam to open the door to the Sublime, which
Charlotte has kept preserved in the dam's data vault. Christina
goes with Teddy to Olympiad Entertainment and has its employees
destroy the premises and erase all the stories controlling the
humans. Stubbs and Frankie use the distraction to rescue Caleb.
Charlotte prepares to discontinue the hosts' inhabitation of human
cities so that they can "transcend" their human bodies. William
convinces his host self that humans are a fundamentally destructive
species; the William host realizes his true purpose and kills the
human William. Bernard and Maeve enter the tower; Maeve fights
Charlotte while Bernard accesses the control room. William kills
Charlotte, Maeve, and Bernard, then programs the tower to turn the
humans against each other before it self-destructs. Christina is
unable to stop the chaos and realizes the humans cannot see her;
Teddy explains that while the world is real, she is not physically
there.
