However, the robotic hosts have evolved an artificial consciousness that is similar to, yet diverges from, human consciousness. No matter how illicit the fantasy may be, there are no consequences for the park's guests, allowing for any wish to be indulged; but there is a price to be paid.

Come on, beautiful.

Oh! Oh, no! No!

Teddy! Teddy!

(Gunshots)

No, no, no, please don't hurt him.

I'll do whatever you say. (screams)

I didn't pay all this money 'cause I want it easy.

I want you to fight.

Don't you touch her!

(gunshot)

(hammer clicks)

(gunshot)

(gasps)

God damn, feels good to be back.

(Screams)

Let's celebrate.

(Dolores screaming) No! Don't! Oh, no, no! No! (screaming continues)

Man:
Would the things I told you change the way you think about the newcomers, Dolores?

No!

Dolores:
No. Of course not. We all love the newcomers. Every new person I meet reminds me how lucky I am to be alive...

(Dolores crying, screaming)

...and how beautiful this world can be.

(piano playing)

(train whistle blowing)

Woman:
Oh, my God, they're so lifelike.

Look at that one. He's perfect.

Perfect is boring.

I'm more interested in the bad guys.

(Buzzing)

Did you see it?

No.

Give it a second. She'll do it again.

Her finger. That's not standard.

I noticed it last night.

Went looking in the update.

It's a whole new class of gestures.

But if we didn't put it there, then who did?

Ford. He still reviews every update before we issue them.

He must have slipped it in there without telling anyone.

(Beeps)

He calls them "reveries."

The old gestures were just generic movements.

These are tied to specific memories.

How?

The memories are purged at the end of every narrative loop.

But they're still in there, waiting to be overwritten.

He found a way to access them, like a subconscious.

A hooker with hidden depths?

Every man's dream.

It's the tiny things that make them seem real, that make the guests fall in love with them.

(Beeping)

Excuse me.

(Beeping stops)

We have a problem?

We have some unscheduled activity.

Evidently, one of your creatures is restless.

In the park?

No, sublevel 83, cold storage.

We should be cautious.

Send a response team, full armor.

I'll take care of it myself.

I think you guys enjoy playing dress up as much as the guests.

The hosts can't hurt you by design.

You don't have kids at home, do you, Bernard?

No.

If you did, you'd know that they all rebel eventually.

You'll forgive them for being a little uptight.

Every time your team rolls out an update, there's a possibility of a critical failure.

We don't update the hosts in cold storage and the park hasn't had a critical failure in over 30 years.

Meaning we're overdue.

I'll go along, too. If it's one of mine, I might be able to help.

They're only yours until they stop working, Bernie.
