Good catch with the name. Last season she was suffering, this season she's giving out suffering.
To be fair, she says she has two minds in her head:
Dolores who sees the beauty in everything, and Wyatt who just wants to murder all humans. Arnold loaded two distinct personalities into one host at the same time, and they both seem to be active at once.
Anyway, I think the timelines are much simpler than people are making out. I think the opening scene wasn't a third timeline at all, its just Bernard talking to the voice in his bicameral mind just before when he wakes up on the beach.
So think its just two timelines 11 days apart, and they're not hiding when any of the action takes place.
(Then again, I fought the "multiple timelines" theory for a LONG time when watching season 1. Now when I re-watch season 1 it should have been obvious).
Nah, I do not think that scene was just a thought. I believe it is real but not from the past. It makes more sense considering that in season one, everything that Delores thought was a dream (even Maeve as well) was based on what happened in the past. Plus what he was describing was too specific. But we shall see. I still believe that's in the distant future. As for everything else. I agree. It is just three timelines and the only one that's non-linear is Bernard's. And it even explained why his was non-linear due to fractured memories.
