It's not about us remembering what we do or don't do. There are some who will never forget what was done to them. The people of this world. The natives.
[ And then Maeve goes on to make everything a bit uncomfortable -- though perhaps it would make William hopeful, what with his attachment to Dolores. ]
Quite similar to how we, the hosts, retain all of the data of everything that happened to us.
[ Of course he'd considered the natives, and he'd said as much to Logan, but that seems obvious enough. What Maeve says after, though... William's look is not so much startled as it is that of a deer caught in a pair of headlights. ]
We do. All of the good things. All of the atrocious things. And let me tell you, there are far more of the latter. It's not simple to access, and some never will. But what they erase...they never truly erase.
[ William wonders how much this woman knows compared to the host who had greeted him when he'd first entered the park. His heart races unpleasantly as he remembers what she had told him: "If you can't tell, does it matter?" ]
All so we can get a few cheap thrills and head home.
Primarily I wanted to see if my suspicions were correct. If you are indeed from my world. You appeared reasonable. In fact, you almost seem eager to understand more about my kind. But I also wanted to be sure you weren't here to 'play games' so to speak.

Most people have no idea. If they just stopped to look outside themselves for a second... [ William hesitates. ] Why did you come to me?

I hope I put your mind at ease. I don't get my kicks from hurting innocent people, no matter the surroundings.

You and I could benefit from one another, you know.

And I'm a businessman where I'm from, but that doesn't mean we have to do things that way.
[ But. ]
I know we're not exactly starting off on even footing here.

You're a cautious woman, I respect that. So thank you. For reaching out.
