The newest “Westworld” episode aired Sunday night on HBO, and it was incredible.

WARNING: THERE ARE GOING TO BE SPOILERS BELOW. DO NOT KEEP READING IF YOU AREN’T CAUGHT UP. CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED.

We all knew going into “Decoherence” that it was likely going to be a wild time. Folks, it didn’t disappoint one bit, and now we have the stage set for the final two episodes of season three. (REVIEW: Dolores’ Plan Is Revealed In Outstanding New ‘Westworld’ Episode ‘Genre’)

First, let’s start with William. Finally, the MiB is getting some serious screen time, and it was awesome. William is still in the mental hospital, and he’s forced to undergo a hallucination in an attempt to find out what demons are haunting him.

In one of the coolest scenes in “Westworld” history, he has a conversation with all the different versions of himself over time.

It’s in this moment we learn there’s been a darkness in him since he was a young child. He kills off his old versions, and Bernard and Stubbs arrive to rescue him.

Finally, William understands his true purpose. He must now save the world from Dolores. After decades of time in the park with her, he must now carry the responsibility of the monster he helped create.

William is the good guy, and he states as much. Despite the fact we didn’t see much of him early, this episode was incredible with him, and now we know what lays ahead for him over the final two episodes. Remember when I said unlikely alliances may be forming?

Well, that leads me to Dolores and Maeve. In case there was any doubt these two were going to have an epic fight, they are all gone after “Decoherence.”

In order to stop Maeve from building an army, Charlotte’s version of Dolores crushes Hector’s brain ball, and he drops dead right in front of the love of her life.

Once again, Hector has been taken from Maeve. Before she’s able to crush our favorite woman in the show, Dolores is rushed out of the building.

In the closing moments, Charlotte survives a car bomb from Serac and Maeve emerges rebuilt. The showdown is here!

Dolores has stolen Hector from Maeve, the MiB understands his true calling, and Charlotte has her “family” taken from her by Serac.

Just an unbelievable episode all the way around! It took a long time to get William back, but it was worth it. Every second he was on screen tonight was chilling.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
