Tilikum Misses the Whistle, Explained：went south
A show session looks fine until a whistle bridge is missed on a perimeter pec wave. The whale finishes the behavior and gets nothing. "Things went south" marks the turn, and the quiet time that follows ends in a grab that "was anything but play."
あらすじ
At SeaWorld Orlando, a report says a six-ton killer whale has killed an experienced trainer. Voices then walk through video of Tilikum with Dawn. The main show was already a disaster. A later session starts well, a whistle on a perimeter pec wave is missed, he returns to no reward and an emptying bucket, and at the rocky ledge he grabs her arm and pulls her in.

There seemed to be a point in the session where things went south, so to speak.a modest preface to a judgment
And in my humble opinion, it was at that missed bridge-- whistle bridge, on the perimeter pec wave.that attempt counted as correct

He likes waving so much. That's beyond waving.continue doing it
That's all right. We're going to let him keep on waving.Ease off the t in didn't and enter hear at once.
My interpretation is that he didn't hear the whistle.a trained trick done exactly right Here behavior means a set trick, not conduct.

So not only did he not hear the bridge, then he went and did a perfect behavior and came back,give someone a clear signal
and what he got was what we call a three-second neutral response, which is just a way to let the animal know, "No, you didn't do the correct thing.receive a reward for it

What's really going on
What the voices reconstruct is a session that began in control and ended in a killing. Early on, "Tilikum is actually really with Dawn" and does "exactly what she asks him to do." The claimed break is a perimeter pec wave: a whistle bridge meant to say the job is done and food is coming, and "he missed that cue." He finishes the lap, does "a perfect behavior," and comes back to "a three-second neutral response" — no reward, then move on. The bucket is emptying, correct behaviors go unreinforced, and "he probably was frustrated towards the end." She lies down with him for "quiet time." The same sentence says the grab "may have started as play or frustration and clearly escalated to be very violent behavior" that "was anything but play." Someone had already been "expecting somebody to be killed by Tilikum." What the account leaves is a missed mark, an empty bucket, and a judgment that the violent part was not play.
Theme

このシーンについての質問
Why does someone say this killing was expected?
They say they had been expecting it since the second person was killed, and that they had been expecting somebody to be killed by Tilikum. The only surprise they name is that it took as long as it did.
What is a whistle bridge here?
A whistle blown as a bridge. In the session it tells the animal it has done a good job and should come back for food. On the perimeter pec wave, that cue is missed.
Why does the whale get no reward after going around the pool?
The interpretation in the scene is that he did not hear the whistle, finished a perfect behavior, and came back to a three-second neutral response: he had not done the correct thing, would not get rewarded, and the session would move on.
Why does the empty fish bucket matter in this telling?
Dawn is running out of food. The animals are said to sense the bottom of the bucket, the handfuls get smaller, and they know the session is ending. Correct behaviors are not getting reinforced.
Was the final grab treated as play?
Only as a possible start. The same remark says it may have started as play or frustration and clearly escalated to very violent behavior that was anything but play.
