Not exactly. I wasn't around for any of this, but the people in the previous round, they ended up...possessed by robots controlled by the showrunner. Then, one of them was in the third round with me, plus a different version of the robot, so when he tried to reach out to the previous robot on their robot network, he sort of activated Angus too.

[Maybe he's not best given to handing out explanations of technological nonsense!]

We didn't know that at the time. Scared everyone, though.
