2. Who Is Grace?

The opening of the episode introduces us to two new characters: Grace and Nicholas, played by Katja Herbers and Neil Jackson respectively. While the latter is swiftly dispatched, the former could be very important.

That's not just down to the fact she survives and makes it to Westworld (though that obviously means we'll be seeing a lot more of her), but her actions in the episode. She's someone who has a disdain for hosts, but also is very familiar with the park, knowing exactly where to run to so that she should be safe. She also has a notebook, which includes a mysterious hexagonal image similar to one we saw inside the Delos labs earlier in the season.

This is Westworld after all, so - assuming she really isn't a host - then who is Grace, and just how important is she going to be?
