"The Bicameral Mind"[]
On the Monorail platform in Westworld Mesa Hub the hosts are lined up waiting, dressed in black. Charlotte Hale watches from the floor above. Lee Sizemore joins her and says Peter Abernathy is ready. He guesses that Ford is retiring that day and wants the job of Park Director. She promises him the job, says he can have it, do whatever he wants as long as he keeps it simple. An announcer welcomes the Delos Board of Directors, they go down the escalator to greet the board.
Later, in Ford's office, the piano player is playing as Ford works. He stops the music as Hale comes in. She's there to tell him he has to retire, after announcing his new narrative. She tells him that the Hosts will be simplified, and that she's not worried about him destroying anything as he goes. Ford delivered his final speech introducing his new Narrative. Hale noticed Dolores Abernathy walked up behind Ford before expressing an emotional look. After wishing everyone to enjoy his final Narrative, Dolores followed her programming and shoots Ford in the back of his head, killing him. Charlotte and the rest of the Delos Board fled from their seats to find any sort of cover from Dolores continuing to fire at the Guests.
