So, I got bored and asked myself: What would Fazbear Ent. have needed to have done to avoid their steady downfall? To me, that answer started like this:
Transcript from the current Fazbear Entertainment CEO (Ms. Teresa Ulysses) in a meeting with the current Head Technician (Mr. Kyle Franklins)
Documented on: 09/06/2017
K: Ms. Ulysses? You wanted to see me?
T: Yes, Kyle. Please, have a seat.
T: It's about the current state of this company. As you know, we have tried to bring animatronics back into the modern era.
K: Yeah, it's working like a charm!
T: sigh I'm going to be straight with you, Kyle; it isn't. Every attempt, every remodel, it always results in people remembering those… poor children.
T: I wish I could say your work is doing us some good, but… these animatronics are TOO tied to 1987, no matter what we do.

T: … As of today, the animatronics are going to be scrapped. Every single one under this company.
K: W-What?! But what about the brand? You can't suddenly pivot to-
T: I'M NOT… I'm not saying we leave Freddy and his friends. We just… go the media route. The endoskeletons and those circuit boards are getting melted down in two weeks. We switch to lightweight, safe costumes instead and pivot to indoor play centers.
K: …I see. But what about plans for a Mega Pizzaplex-
T: Scrapped. Completely. I'm personally shredding the plans tonight. That would cost too much money, resources, and it involves that damn code.
T: Thank you. I've already scheduled a meeting with some local arcade providers for Thursday. I'm deeply sorry that your-
K: No, I get it. We tried, we failed, and it was all because of… him. I'll see what I can do… and, hopefully, we don't burn down.
T: chuckles Hope not. You're free to go.
K: Thank you for your time, ma'am.
T: snickers Ma'am? I'm only 31.
