Warning: Spoilers ahead for Sunday's episode of "Westworld." 

The newest episode of HBO's "Westworld" brought back several beloved characters from the first season, and introduced important new faces. From new revelations about the early days of Westworld to yet more modern music covered on the piano, we're here to break it all down.

Keep reading for a look at seven details you might have overlooked.

During the cold open flashback, we learn that Arnold's son Charlie was still alive when the park and hosts were first being built.

Previously, we only knew that Ford had described Arnold's life as being "marked by tragedy," but there was no specific context for when or how Charlie's death happened.

Thanks to the flashback, we have a stronger sense of the chronology within "Westworld." Charlie was alive when Arnold first built Dolores and the other hosts. The death of his son clearly affected Arnold's relationship to the hosts in a more tragic way than was previously understood.

As we see later in the episode, that opening scene took place just before Logan was pitched Westworld as an investment.

Seeing Angela and another host named Akecheta pitch the Westworld park to Logan was illuminating for several reasons. First, it put more events into sharper focus. We know now that Logan was making investments on his father's company's behalf, and Westworld was one of them.

Again, you can see the events laid out chronologically in our timeline here.



The "private demonstration" was also a special look at the original set of hosts Arnold built.

HBO

We learned in the first season that only 37 hosts still in the park during present day on the show were built by Arnold. 

Dolores, Teddy, Angela, Armistice, and Peter Abernathy are all part of that original set. And the flashback showed more important hosts belonging to that first generation, including Clementine.
