Summary

It's quiet. Too quiet.

"Westworld" Season 4 kicked off with William up to some dastardly deeds, but things quickly became muted as the story seemed to parallel parts Season 1 and parts "The Matrix Resurrections."

We also got some elements of Caleb playing Hawkeye (I've gotta leave my family to protect them) in a season premiere that felt unlike any "Westworld" Episode 1 we've ever seen. Hear a sneak preview of what we'll be covering in Tuesday's Deep Dive, and help us spot the Easter eggs littered around "The Auguries."

my favorite. But regarding this episode, so you know, one word, right? It was quiet.

1:04.0

Like it feels quiet in a way that like didn't feel revolutionary. And yes, I know we have like

ever. That's, you know, been contracted afterwards to help kill people like Barry. Like we had all

along like recap or one of those like one offs that they make for just the fans that like catch you
