"Westworld" Season 3: HBO Gets Viewers Up-to-Speed with Seasons 1 & 2 Recaps [VIDEO]

With Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's Westworld returning to HBO this Sunday, March 15, the cable giant has been doing everything it can (no spoilers) to get viewers psyched for what is a game-changing third season. But then they realized that maybe some of you procrastinated and didn't binge the first two seasons in time – but if you're one of those people, no worries!

What follows are recaps of the first two seasons, covering everying from The Man in Black's (Ed Harris) journey of discovery to Bernard's (Jeffrey Wright) connection to Maeve's (Thandie Newton) escape to what lead Dolores (Evan Rachel Wood) to becoming this season's vengeful "god" looking to rain down her wrath upon humanity.

So with still one more day to go, here's a little Westworld "homework" to get you up-to-speed:

Here's a look at the episode titles and descriptions for the third season's first four chapters (the second-half will consist of eight episodes) as well preview images from the series' return:

In the following "corporate video" for Incite, Inc. – a data-collecting company that is clearly looking to achieve god-like status within the Westworld universe – we see that they're more than happy to make our lives "better. From whether to butter your toast to whether the U.S. should nuke another country, Incite believes that the solutions to those problems exists in each and every one of us – we just don't know it… yet.

ABOUT US: The world can feel chaotic: big problems, no solutions, no one to lead the way. Global issues may seem so complex that untangling the answers feels impossible. Here at Incite, we want to make "impossible" a thing of the past. Chaos is merely a pattern waiting to be uncovered. You can help us chart a better future.

Powered by our revolutionary strategy engine, we are able to calculate sophisticated solutions to problems large and small, from global climate change to personal career growth. We believe we have a personal responsibility to make the world a better place, starting at home. Here at Incite, your data doesn't work for us — we work for you.

Now we're getting a sense of what happens when a god-like system runs head-long into we're assuming Dolores – creating a "critical event" that starts to unfold on March 15.
