It is an old dark room. Around this dark room, are blackened, destroyed pieces of wall, of ceilings. It is a miracle that this room survived whatever blast blew up the facility.

The entrance to this room is being pried open. As the light slowly filters through, a screen can be seen with the words:

Unforeseen event has caused memory banks to merge. Do you still wish to continue the program?

Yes/No

The two men who enter the room stare at the screen curiously. Obviously, they cannot read English, as they leave shortly after.

Moments later, an old man walks into the room, led by the same two men. The old man steps in front of the screen and says, “U. N. F. O. R. E. S. E. E. N.” and then in his strange tongue says, “Ah, this must be the ancient language English! I’m surprised this relic still works though.”

The old man, looking down again, sees the Yes/No option and muttering to himself, he presses the Yes option.

Immediately, a rumbling sound can be heard throughout the room. And the lights slowly flicker on. It is strange that the electricity still works, but the lights still flicker on. Slightly worried, the old man and the two men back away towards the door, and leave.

Had they stayed a while longer, they would have witnessed the first sentient robot created in centuries.
