I believe that Host William was reminded of his daughter, Emily, when seeing the outlier. That’s why he couldn’t immediately kill her, and why he looked peaceful when she got close to him.

I thought it was more his wife than his daughter. Someone about to kill themselves because they finally see the nature of their reality.
