I don't think he was looking at Laura with longing but Salim. Salim was praying, worshiping a god that has many followers, a god that isn't struggling to maintain his power and won't soon be forgotten. Mad Sweeney is largely forgotten, no one prays to him, no one sets out altars for him. He has very little power.

I really thought he was looking at Laura as well...especially because he gave her a similar look right after her visit to her mom's house, when she got in the cab and lit a cigarette. It was a look of curiosity mixed with...IDK, longing, as the other comment said? And I think a big reason for this has to do with what we'll see in the next episode...

Spoiler

when we see his backstory with Essie Trogowan, who is the spitting image of Laura (and played by Emily Browning, no less).

Why do you think Teddy was "one of Arnold's?"

Oh, I don't know. I don't know anything really, which is why I posed it to the OP as to why he/she believes it's one of Arnold's backstories. I wasn't sure if maybe I missed something. We do know that Teddy's new backstory is rooted in truth, according to Ford, and it seems to tell a tale of two friends who ended up as enemies, and the way it's been shown so far (even if the memories are fake) that it was Wyatt who went nuts, not Teddy. If that's true, then Teddy is playing "Ford" in this narrative. But...we know Teddy is an unreliable as a narrator (including what he tells MiB about Wyatt), so I could see a twist in which Teddy is the one that initiated and led the massacre, and is the "Arnold" figure, not Wyatt.

What do you think?

In case anyone missed Bernard's pad, Dolores was one of the older model designed by Arnold.  

Well, the voices can only be heard by older model? Was the host that killed other hosts for revenge while drinking milk an older model too or was it a retcon?

So Theodore Flood was one of Arnold's in the past live.  I was more interested in following Teddy's backstory than the oodles of dumb people in this episode :P 

Or...Teddy is adopting one of Ford's, maybe? Was it said definitively that his backstory is either one of theirs?

Like others here have said, I didn't miss William and Dolores in this ep at all. This episode was really engaging and intense, and I loved it. If I'm being extra honest, I find the William/Dolores stuff to be kinda dull, actually. I can't put my finger on why...it's probably because I find them as characters kinda dull?? I'm way more interested in Maeve, Teddy, MiB and Ford these days.
