==Plot==
===Westworld Awakening===
===="Rabbit's Snare"====
Following his loop, Hank breaks into the Biltmore Manor and kills Eric Rockwell just before Kate Wesson comes over to collect her inheritance. After some chase, he stabs her fatally with a hook to avenge his family's death.
In another host rotation, the chase repeats, but this time two guests intervene and shoot Hank fatally just as he's about to kill Kate again.
In the next host rotation, after Aaron Lyle boosts his bullet resistance, Hank again finds Kate who is accompanied by Mr. Larson. The guests quickly flees as the bullets don't seem to do much, so Kate has to run. She may topple bookcases and lock the doors to hinder him, but that'll stop Hank only temporarily. Hank chases her, whistling, and accidentally drops a key on the floor. After Kate picks it up and opens the next closed door to proceed further, he grabs her only to be shoved in a window by her out of the manor. However, he catches up with Kate at the manor's attic, and kills her with an axe.
===="Critical Incident"====
After Kate Wesson uses the breaker box to cut the electricity to activate an elevator, she hears a familiar whistle. Hank appears briefly and is preparing to chase Kate just as a door closes on him. He starts to bang on the door when Brannon orders terrified Kate to find some hosts to distract him with. Kate takes right and finds couple of rooms with hosts. In the very last one, she finds two people whom she recognizes - a bounty hunter Houston Hart and a town preacher Emmett Garson. Kate is frightened by the fact they're frozen and Brannon tells her to scan them.
Kate changes their emotion levels under Brannon's suggestions. They fight and emit enough noise. Satisfied with the result, Brannon orders Kate to leave since Hank's going to come for the sound. Kate, terrified by what she's done, leaves.
Kate again uses her tablet to find the way out. She finds a room with big pipes and squeezes through them. Another locked door, another utility key to be found. In process, Kate asks Brannon where does she know Hank from, but the technician tells her it's not important now. When Kate opens the final door, white smoke comes down and spreads fast. Kate coughs, which reveals her location to Hank. Hank is equipped with an axe and will swing it if he catches up with Kate, laughing and whistling in process. The chase eventually leads to the elevator, which is closed due to electricity loss. Kate has to find couple of switches, which she can scan, and utility keys to open and activate the elevator while being haunted by Hank. The tablet may be used to find the location of the switches, highlighted with yellow color, or the location of Hank, highlighted with red. If Kate runs, her location will be revealed from any place of the map. If Kate walks normally, she will draw Hank's attention only in his near proximity. If Kate crawls, she won't be spotted by Hank.
When both levers are pulled, the elevator becomes active and Kate can enter it. After she's inside, the cabin gets banged on, and Hank's axe is seen between the doors.
