In an emergency, everyone is pushing toward the same door, thousands and thousands of pounds pushing them along in a very confined space.”Security experts note that movie theater operators have been asking how to better protect their locations ever since Aurora.

The 'bots include Tom Servo, Crow T. Robot, Gypsy (who is in charge of running the satellite's operations) and Cambot, the silent recorder of the experiments.

Crow and Servo join the human as they watch the film in the Satellite's theater, and to keep from going mad, the trio frequently comment and wisecrack atop it, a process known as .
