Two years ago, the worst day in the history of Delos
began with no obvious signs that anything would go wrong.
The robots were behaving as programmed.
And although there was some evidence of circuit malfunction,
it was well within the normal parameters.
Mr. Dyffy, are you saying that despite your sophisticated sensors,
- What the hell are you doing here? - you had absolutely no indication about it?
- Later. - None at all.
Then quite suddenly,
one of our most complicated robot gunslingers
began to act in a most vicious manner.
For the first time in our history,
a robot actually killed a guest.
Within a few moments
Delos was in turmoil.
I thought your only problem was in Westworld?
No, thanks to your Mr. Browning,
Westworld got the brunt of the bad publicity,
but the breakdown occured throughout the resort.
Mr. Duffy, I don't quite understand
why you didn't shut off the power supply to your robots.
We did.
But they ran on reserve long enough to do a great deal of damage.
- How many guests were killed? - More than 50.
And of course, many of our own technicians also died.
In fact, by the time we regained control,
95 members of our technical and maintenance staff
had either been killed or wounded.
Aside from the human loss,
it was a financial and public relations disaster of the first magnitude.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, those of us who have devoted our lives
to creating Delos, were stunned by the events I've just shown you.
