The Raj Westworld

HBO

The Raj looks a lot more relaxing than Westworld.

The third episode of the second season of "Westworld," which aired Sunday night on HBO, opens somewhere we've never seen or heard about on the show.

The episode opens with two peacocks, palm trees, and an instrumental sitar version of The White Stripes hit "Seven Nation Army," indicating that this setting is a Delos Destination park.

A woman (Grace) and a man (Nicholas), characters we've never seen before, sit at an outdoor table in an Indian setting. There are temples and elephants. And until the hosts go haywire, nobody shoots or stabs anybody. So, it's quite the opposite of Westworld.

Guests seem to come to this park, called "The Raj," to hunt dangerous animals, including Bengals. "British Raj" refers to the period when India was under British rule from 1858-1947. The Bengal tiger, native to India, was seen washed up on the shore of Westworld in the season two premiere. As we see early in the episode, the hosts in this park (including the Bengal) go off the rails and start attacking guests.
