I'm not sure I understand why Ford had Bernard shoot himself in the head in the first place. What did it accomplish, exactly?

Think the Man in Black will survive? Odds do not look too good for him, but seems early to off him. One broken arm and a bullet in the other, and the entire Sioux Nation bearing down on him, but maybe he pulls some next level badass.
I think he was trying to let Bernard know that he wasn't as free as he thought he was, and give him some more suffering to help keep him on his own path to the center of the maze. I don't think those hosts were Ghost Nation. I am still holding out for Elsie and Biff Thunderclap to be holed up with Ghost Nation at a remote station in the park. I think that was Maeve's army that she freed up from cold storage as part of Ford's final narrative. Remember the annoying guy that says '****' a lot found cold storage empty right at the end. Could be MiB just plays dead and the hosts run past him to storm the gala. They are just about zombie-ish.
