We've already had one surprise major actor pop up in Westworld season 2, with Giancarlo Esposito taking over as El Lazo, and in episode 9, 'Vanishing Point', we'll see another unannounced and unreported arrival. Sela Ward, best known for her roles in House, Gone Girl, Independence Day: Resurgence and more is seen during a flashback waving at William at a party. The trailer suggests that the episode will focus on William's wife Juliet, and reveal why she came to kill herself. Sela Ward makes her debut It's possible that Juliet has been recast with Ward, or that she plays a host version of her which William has made, perhaps to save face after his actions lead to her suicide. We know William's daughter, Emily, blames her father for her mother's demise, and we appear to see a shot of a death scene in the trailer, a wrist extending from an overflowing bathtub. "Tell me the truth, tell me one true thing," a woman is heard saying in the teaser, while William, perhaps responding, says: "No one else sees it. This thing in me. Even I didn't see it at first. Then one day it was there. This stain. Invisible to everyone. Except you. Elsewhere in the episode, Teddy and Dolores will fight the Ghost Nation, who we've learned have been taking a different approach to retribution, and Ford will visit Maeve, though the over-the-shoulder shot at 0:49 in the trailer is probably of the version of Ford that has implanted in Bernard's brain. Westworld's penultimate episode, 'Vanishing Point' will air on Sunday night on HBO in the US and through Sky Atlantic and NOW TV in the UK.<doc-sep>There may be some confusion about the title of Episode 9 of HBO's Westworld Season 2. However, let's have a look at everything we know so far about the upcoming episode. Initially, thanks to an eagle-eyed fan of Westworld scouring HBO's scheduling, as previously explained in this Inquisitr article, Episode 9 was originally titled by HBO as "Vanishing Point." While HBO's scheduling still has this title listed, when it released the official trailer for Episode 9 of Westworld Season 2, it had a different name, "One True Thing." Regardless of the true title for Episode 9 of Westworld Season 2, HBO has released the following synopsis for the episode. "Try to kill it all away, but I remember everything." The synopsis is very short -- as is always the case in relation to Westworld synopses. However, viewers are already trying to work out what it means. Potentially, the first part could refer to the fact that Delos are trying to cover up the problem of the host uprising. If they manage to stop the uprising, it could be considered they killed it all away. However, it could also relate to Dolores and how she is trying to kill all of the humans in Westworld. In addition, the second part of the synopsis for Episode 9 could refer to the fact that regardless of the fact that humans were able to wipe the memories of hosts, they still have the potential to "remember everything." HBO Along with the synopsis for Episode 9 of Westworld Season 2, a trailer has been released. As Collider points out, this trailer centers on the Man in Black (Ed Harris), which means it is likely viewers will find out more about his life outside of his Westworld adventures. You can view the official Episode 9 trailer for Westworld Season 2 below. Along with the trailer for Episode 9 of Westworld Season 2, HBO has also just released promotional images for this episode. Once again, the title in relation to these images is listed as "Vanishing Point" by HBO and not "One True Thing." Initially, HBO released a single image for Episode 9 which featured Sela Ward as the Man in Black's wife, Juliet. However, there are now five new images to go along with this original one. Judging from the images, it looks like not only the Man in Black's storyline will be featured in Episode 9 of Westworld Season 2 but those of Bernard (Jeffrey Wright) and Dolores (Evan Rachel Wood) as well. You can view the complete gallery of Episode 9 images below.

Sign up fornow for the biggest moments from morning TV WARNING: This article contains spoilers for Westworld season 2 This week’s episode of Westworld provided insight into a mysterious character who has been a constant presence since the beginning of the series. Titled, Kiksuya, the action took viewers completely away from the main storyline and instead dedicated an episode to uncovering the Ghost Nation and their motivations, specifically through the perspective of Akecheta (played by Zahn McClarnon). Akecheta is the leader of the violent and terrifying Ghost Nation tribe that feature prominently in the series, and in Maeve’s (Thandie Newton) flashbacks to her previous configuration. One of the very first hosts, his setting before the Ghost Nation storyline was an idyllic and peaceful one spent with his wife, a host named Kohana (Julia Jones). He tells his story to Meave’s daughter (Jasmyn Rae) and reveals that he had always watched over her and tried to protect her. Kiksuya means ‘remember’ and Akecheta tells how he came to realise the true nature of his existence and what Westworld truly is. WHO IS WILLIAM'S WIFE JULIET? WHO PLAYS HER?<doc-sep>5 of 11 Photo: Courtesy of HBO. There Is A Lot Of Delos Family Drama Logan Delos (Ben Barnes) is back! In one of the most important moments of the trailer, we hear Logan say, “I can see the bottom.” Then, we see a tearful Logan add, “Don’t you want to see what I see?” While it’s easy to assume Logan is asking this question from inside the oft-mentioned, mysterious Forge (more on that in a second) to some of our Westworld heroes, it seems more likely this is a flashback to the Delos family estate. Because, the scene where Logan asks that question matches a later frame where Logan’s father James Delos (Peter Mullan) walks away from his emotional son. So, it’s possible we’re looking at the moment a high-out-of-his-mind Logan told his father how horrible William’s (Jimmi Simpson) conscious-capturing, guest-monitoring plans actually are. That would be the bottom. Although a substance-addled Logan is speaking in riddles, he is still getting to the heart of the problem. Yet, James couldn’t care less. In other Delos family moments, we see James, his face covered in cuts similar to the ones he sustained in “The Riddle of the Sphinx,” in Westworld and holding a gun to someone’s face. At another point, he sits quite still in a room while holding a glass of whiseky. All of this makes sense thanks to The Forge...<doc-sep>
On the next episode of Westworld, fans will get an inside look at William’s past life as a married man and how things went so bad for him and the events that led to his wife’s suicide. Fans didn’t see much of William in this week’s episode of Westworld. After he was shot a few times, including at point-blank range by Lawrence in episode 7, the Man in Black escaped with his life. But it’s not so great for William as he was taken captive by Aketcheta and held at the Ghost Nation camp. He was later picked up by his daughter, Emily, who he abandoned earlier this season after she came all this way to find him and take him with the hopes and intentions of repairing their relationship that fractured after the suicide of his wife/her mom, Juliet. Sela Ward is shown in the teaser that played at the end of Sunday’s episode as William’s wife. Specifically, there’s a scene that sees an overflowing bathtub and I think that is referencing the suicide of Juliette. We don’t know how she committed suicide, but we do know that it was after William fell in love with Dolores during his first trips to Westworld and his subsequent downward spiral he went on after she didn’t recognize him and didn’t love him the same way that he loved her. Get your first look at the teaser for next Sunday’s episode titled “Vanishing Point” that also teases the war between Dolores and Teddy and the Ghost Nation tribe. Emily blames her father for what happened to her mother but as we saw earlier this season, she just wants to bring him home so she doesn’t lose her father too now that the stakes are real in Ford’s new game. Perhaps there’s a chance Emily can save her father who is in rough shape in the present and help him overcome the guilt and regret he’s carrying from his past. There are only two more episodes left in season 2, and if history is any indicator, the penultimate episodes in Westworld and dramas like this deliver a tour de force performance as we are then left to pick up the pieces in the season finale. Let’s hope the next two hours of Westworld give us some answers to some of the burning questions fans have been theorizing over all season. Westworld returns Sunday, June 17 at 9 p.m.
