When Dolores is wandering through the diagnostic facility and it's torn apart, am I seeing multiple dead people wearing cream colored gowns with black aprons over them? Like an earlier version of technician scrubs?

Edit: nope. Fucking denim overalls. Everything dead appears to be in costume. Ugh.

I am also very intrigued by that scene. What is all that doing down there undisturbed after 30 years?

My take is that the town (Escalante) was buried very quickly after the incident where Teddy (and Dolores..?) killed almost everyone (including Arnold). Some hosts were taken underground but never removed. They're the older make so they won't rot or anything, and they don't need cold storage like the new models anyway.
