From the story: "Freshee's Frogurt" by Daniel H. Wilson: Based on the context, what does "tele-robbery" mean?
Vesna [10]

Answer and explanation:

This is the context in which the word "telerobbery" appears in the story:

<em>Nothing changes on its face or anything, but I get a pretty bad feeling right then. I mean, an even worse feeling. And, sure enough, I hear the servos in the thing’s arm start to grind. Now it turns and swings me to the left, smashing the side of my head into the door of the pie fridge hard enough to crack the glass. The whole right side of my head feels cold and then warm. Then the side of my face and neck and arm all start to feel really warm, too. Blood’s shooting out of me like a [...] fire hydrant. </em>

<em>Jesus, I’m crying. And that’s when… uh. That’s when Felipe shows up. </em>

<em>Do you give the domestic robot money from the register? </em>

<em>What? It doesn’t ask for money. It never asked for money. It doesn’t say a word. What went down wasn’t a telerobbery, man. I don’t even know if it was being remote controlled, Officer … </em>

<em>What do you think it wants? </em>

<em>It wants to kill me. That’s all.</em>

<em />

From this passage, we can understand a man has been attacked by his robot. The officer who is asking the questions to understand the reasons for the attack asks if the robot wanted money. The man then answers that what took place was not a telerobbery, that he doesn't even know if the robot was being remote controlled. <u>From those clues, we can safely assume telerobbery is a robbery performed by a robot that is being controlled by someone or something that is not present.</u>
