are you based in CIS ? Just curious , from my experience alot of people from CIS share your view about splitlategame situations are annoyingboring <| sep |> I can ' t seem to figure out what the point of keeping me around Why do you think he ' s keeping you around ? <| sep |> I definitely agree that it would take something as big as Ford himself to convince William she was just going through her loop . But even if that were the case , wouldn ' t that make him suspect that Maeve is also on some sort of loop ? I would almost argue that what Maeve did isn ' t even that unique . She was programmed to be a mother , and she was protecting her daughter as any mother would . What was unique to MIB was that she survived through his attack and broke through her coding to be able to attack him , yet it wouldn ' t be so hard to believe that it was just a glitch . But either way , if he has already seen that Hosts like Dolores are able to either go off loop , or give the impression of going off loop , then why would he be impressed at all ? It seems to me that MIB is someone who has never encountered a Host like Dolores before for his statement to have as big an impact as it seems to have had on him .
