HBO's sci-fi brain teaser 'Westworld' sixth episode "The Adversary" mystified viewers around the world with its interesting characters and storyline, among which is Maeve's search for consciousness moving her closer to taking full control of the realm, while Elsie's inquisitiveness may have gotten the best of her as the Man in Black sits back to watch Teddy show him the ways of the gun.

Evan Rachel Wood told Variety that when she met with showrunners Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan for the first time, they told her they wanted 'Westworld' to be "the greatest show of all time." On Sunday night, the show brought its first wonderful episode on television.

The robot revolution amazes everyone. 'Westworld' sixth episode "The Adversary" features the hunt for Arnold, Felix's coding, and Ford's fake family. However, most fans were appalled by the nudity in 'Westworld' sixth episode "The Adversary." Some think it is unnecessary and they feel sorry for the actress being naked for so long. The knowledge that the robots are really actual human beings made the viewers feel bad for the display of nude bodies of actresses.

Elsie and Bernard digging into park mysteries is another plot and as a result gets devastating for Elsie. She went to a spooky haunted house and was seized by an unseen force. It became more of a classic comic relief, rather than an actual horror-suspense story. 

Bernard also discovered Ford's robot family. It is a recreation of the real blood relatives of Ford, only made from rubber and metal. It is a short narrative but it shows the complexity of the characters and how it weaves with the totality of 'Westworld' sixth episode "The Adversary."

Characters are darkly funny and engaging. Plots move at an unexpected pace and tease ambiguities without being unclear. It was truly a great episode for most viewers.
