Robocop (1994) s01e03 Episode Script

1
It's not open yet.
- Mom, it's closed!
- Then open it!
Right!
One, two, three!
Stop him!
Great tracker to meet!
Step out of the car, please
I said step out of the car.
I'm sorry, Murphy
I don't know what happened
I'm sorry
Go ahead and shock the
flatline, then let's quit.
Okay, everybody, clear!
Officer Alex Murphy shot to
death in a line of duty.
Legally he's dead. We can
pretty much do what we want.
There's a new guy in town.
His name's Robocop.
Murphy, it is you.
Wow!
Come on, let's burn that fat!
Just a little faster now!
Faster, faster! Come
on now, you can do it!
Come on, faster, faster!
Faster! Just a
little faster now!
You can do it!
Why kill yourself to take off
what you just going
to put back on?
There's only one way to
lose weight - stop eating.
Easier said than done.
That's why to shed
those excess pounds
9 out of 10 doctors
at Omnimediplex
recommend the new
No-Gain tablets
with a miracle of a
virilium mutens narcosa,
or as we call it, VMN.
Nature's own
appetite suppressed.
Try it! See for yourself!
With No-Gain, there's
no strain, no pain,
and, best of all, no gain!
A new report released
today shows homicide
on the downswing in Old Detroit.
Right, Bo?
Right, Rocky. Last month police
in Old Detroit were called in
to investigate only 312 murders,
down whooping 5% from
this time last year.
Nice going, Old Detroit!
But it's not all good news
on the ground front. Rocky?
For the second straight day,
Delta City has been rocked
by a wave of violence that has city
officials scratching their heads.
Martina Marx has more.
Oh, yes, scratching their
heads indeed, Rocky.
One of these is doctor Gene Julius
of the Omni-Research Institute;
And, Dr. Julius, what's
especially troubling
is that this violence is taking
place right here in Delta City
and not in Old Detroit where, well,
quite frankly, it might be expected.
That's right, Martina. The usual
suspects are not involved.
According to police records,
most of the people arrested
are ordinary citizens
with no criminal past
and no affinity for
violence, up to now.
So what's happening, I mean,
we're all going crazy?
Ha-ha-ha, not quite.
But there's a kind of
collective madness
that wells up in societies when stress
level reach their breaking point.
Those most affected are, of course,
those with the most at stake,
the affluent white collar set,
the middle class.
In a word, or in five words,
to be exact, the
people of Delta City.
- What, there's more?
- Delta Central is swamped.
- They asked if we's take the overflow.
- What do we do with them?
Pitch tents in the parking lot? There's
no room, Wilcox, there's no room.
- I know, Sarge, but
- But what?
- I don't know, Sarge.
- Oh, what next.
- Sergeant Parks. Sergeant Parks.
- What?
What are you doing here, Madigan,
it's your day-off, right?
- Hey Sarge!
- In a minute!
Detective Madigan
is under arrest.
- What for?
- Speeding. Reckless driving.
Evading arrest.
Endangering the public.
- Possession of an impounded vehicle
- Okay, okay, okay
Go on into my office. Go on.
Madigan
Madigan?
Um It's like I told Murphy,
I was just at home and
suddenly I had to get out,
just drive, you know, somewhere, just
had to be doing something, anything.
The car was in the garage,
so I go to the impound lot.
And I knew what I was doing but I didn't
care. I didn't care about anything.
Well until we get this cleared
up, you're on suspension.
I've got no choice
here, Madigan.
We'll have to hold you tonight.
Whatever.
Is she on something?
Did you scan her?
No illegal substance
was indicated.
Hey, Sergeant! Excuse me.
- Now, is this the latest?
- Where did you get them?
- Data control.
- Then you got them.
All right Excuse me.
Have you ever noticed how guys like that
always show up at times like these?
- He is in corporate headquarters.
- That's what I mean.
- What are you doing there?
- Nothing.
Oh yeah? Well, listen you little pipsqueak,
why don't you take a hike, okay?
- I live here, you know.
- What, are you a hamster or something?
- Come on, out, out, out
- Okay, okay, okay.
Shouldn't you be
playing or something!
Oh, thank you, that's pleasant.
That's really nice.
Come on, beat it!
She lives here
Ladies and gentlemen,
we have got a hit!
No-Gain is the biggest
thing in pharmaceutical
since codeine candy, bigger.
And here's the man of the hour!
The figures are in, Frosh,
Chadaman here came along from
distribution with the news.
One week of test
marketing in Delta City,
and No-Gain shattered every
sales record in the book!
- Congratulations!
- Well, thank you very much, sir
Well, you know I
think we still need
to finetune the
campaign a little bit,
especially before
we go nation-wide.
Perhaps even withdraw the
product temporarily
Withdraw No-Gain?
The public won't stand for it.
Oh, come, come, Frosh.
Sometimes we just have to take the
old pig skin and run with it.
After all, it was your initiative that
allowed us to get to market so quickly!
- That miracle drug from Arizona
- Amazon, sir
- Amazon.
- And it's not a drug.
It's actually, sir; VMN is extracted
from the sap of the Orchida's vine
- Whatever, the point is, it's natural!
- Oh yes.
- We don't have to concoct it!
- Oh no.
No! We don't have to submit it to those
busy-body bureaucrats at the FDA!
- No-no, sir
- Test, test, test!
- It's all they think about over there.
- And we did test it, sir.
Of course we did! And then
we shipped it right out.
That's the American way,
that's the OCP way!
Yes!
Congratulations!
Chadaman! Chadaman!
Terminate the distribution of No-Gain
now until the further notice!
- What? You heard the chairman
- You're taking orders from me now, remember?
- But I can't, I can't
- Just do what you're told, Chadaman,
or you'll be back in that little rat hole
you crawled out from, is that understood?
Are you all right?
Yeah, fine.
Night lockup gives you the whole
new perspective on Metro South.
If there's anything I can do
Look, Murphy, you're a
good guy alright, but
you know, don't feel sorry for me, alright?
I'm a big girl. No excuses.
- Something is missing?
- No, just
Here it is.
- Lisa?
- Hi, Nance
Um You know Robocop, right?
Yes. Hello.
I love you very much.
Nancy is going to give
me a ride at home.
Excuse me, I have to go.
Somewhere there is
a crime happening.
Um Nancy, are you all right?
Um Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
Attention, people.
Over here for a minute, please.
We have a new issue from
OCP Security Concepts,
- the people who signed your paychecks.
- What's it do, spray away crime?
Very funny, Wilcox.
It's called Isoflow,
as you can see.
It's a silicon concentrate and
when released into the air,
it forms a foamy mass that
reduces traction to 0%.
- You mean it's slippery?
- Exactly.
OCP's tests show that
it is impossible
to maintain footing on
Isoflow enhanced surface.
Now, this I have in my hand
is designed for individual
confrontations,
and this is for crowd control
with optional
range-enhancing nozzle.
How do the officers stay up?
An excellent question, Sergeant.
These boot-sleaves are treated
to resist all
anti-traction effects.
Believe me, OCP has
thought of everything.
- Yeah? For who's benefit?
- For your benefit, Wilcox.
And you'll find it out the next time
you face a howling mob out there.
And you'll be out there
with us, right, Lippencot?
Well in spirit, as always.
I will I'm always
Ah, Robocop.
Do you have your Isoflow?
What's eating him?
Life, what else?
Oh yeah, oh boy
that is blind
Oh, my little lotus flower,
now would you just turn
around and let me see
Mallardo!
Put that toy away,
you've got a visitor.
- Alas.
- Get up! Get up!
I hope you realize how lucky you are I've
even let you have this holographic thingy.
A lot of guys down here
wouldn't be so nice to you.
Yes, yes, which is why this
is such a privilege for me
to contribute to your
personal pension fund, yes.
Forgive the medieval
security arrangements,
they've been touchy since
Pudface took his leave.
Cut the crap, Mallardo! We've
got trouble with a capital T!
Trouble, you say? T, you say?
I'm sorry am I
missing something?
You didn't miss a thing. You knew
this was gonna happen all along!
You knew what VMN would do with
those people, you knew, Mallardo!
Well, if it's the fact that VMN
has a mild de-inhibitive
effect, that's to be expected.
De-inhibitive? It's turning
people into homicidal maniacs!
- And A-bonus: It's addictive!
- Slightly, perhaps, yes
I've been running data from the precinct,
every single person in Delta City
in the past two days is taking
No-Gain, every single one!
How are their appetites? You
know, it really does work.
Jesus Look, what I don't understand is why
it didn't this show up when we tested it?
Well, see, we didn't
test it much, did we?
OCP never does, and
then, of course,
what was provided
for the tests
well, that wasn't exactly
what's been going into No-Gain.
- What?
- What can I say?
Mea culpa, mea culpa.
I'm a bad man, Frosh.
I'm a very bad man, and you
should never have trusted me.
Oh my God, oh my God
Why did I trust you, what
the hell was I thinking of?
You were thinking career, you were thinking
promotion, you were thinking bonus
Yes, yes, and yes! But you
were a partner in this, too.
You told me you needed
money for your lawyers.
Money? For my lawyers, indeed!
I have to laugh.
Would you excuse me,
I do I have excuse me, I
have to laugh, I think I
ha-ha-ha!
Have you any idea who I am?
Can you have any notion at all
as to the range of my genius?
That's a rhetorical question,
no need to answer.
I tower, Frosh.
I loom, I stand like a colossus.
What gifts I could
bestow upon the world
crying out for a
savior, and yet
where am I?
I'm languishing, ignored
in a boneyard
full of castaways and crooks.
So, someone must pay.
- Revenge?
- Yes!
The most profound
satisfaction a man can know.
And, thanks to you and OCP,
Delta City is
self-destructing even now.
And that is only the beginning,
it's only the beginning.
Today - Delta City, tomorrow
You are insane!
That's what they tell me, Frosh.
That's what they tell me.
You're so rough
Go on, go on, go on, go on
It's just as we expected.
Leave it to me.
Lisa, wait!
They say you're not a
detective anymore.
Oh, that's just for now.
But you didn't do nothing wrong!
I know it.
Gadget, listen.
Sometimes people do
things, you know,
that they not mean,
stupid things
But you wouldn't.
I didn't think so
either, but I did.
- I have to face up to that now.
- It's not true!
I don't believe you!
- You okay?
- Yeah.
This is so weird I can't
believe this is happening to me.
You've been under a
lot of pressure.
How are those things?
Um, they work. I've
lost three pounds.
Two more, and I can fit in
that dress you gave me.
Two more pounds and
you'll disappear
Look, Lisa, I know it's
none of my business, but
I know how much that promotion
to detective meant to you.
What, you think I'm trying
to hard to live up to it?
I don't know.
I do know that something like that
happened to me, after Alex died.
I was trying so hard to be strong
and ended up denying my own grief.
I drove myself crazy.
And then, when I started to
get over it, I felt guilty.
You know what's taking me even now from even
thinking about having social life again?
Dating me imagine.
Eavesdropping?
Detective Madigan is in trouble.
Oh, the fact that your wife's with
her has nothing to do with it.
- No.
- Okay, okay,
you know me, I was
poking my nose in
I know how much you miss
your old life, Murphy.
Me? It's different,
I never had a life.
If only you could experience
the world as a woman.
That is unlikely.
You never know
- Listen Alex, I didn't mean
- You're correct.
About what?
I was eavesdropping.
Hey, you're only human.
You ignored my instructions, Chadaman! I
told you I want in all orders terminated!
- I told you I couldn't. We have commitments.
- Screw the commitments! No-Gain is history.
Look, a release goes
out today, okay?
Due to report, a malicious
tempering by unknown persons
allright, every single pack of
No-Gain is being withdrawn.
No fuss, no muss, no
scandal, get it, Chadaman?
No, you get it, Frosh.
- Right between the eyes.
- What, are you nuts or something?
Oh, wait a minute, Chadaman,
I was just a little upset.
You know me, I don't
really mean what I say.
- Say your prayers, pighead!
- No, no, no!
Damn!
- Where did he go?
- That way, Mr. Chadaman.
Sorry, sir.
Drop the box, let's
go, let's go!
That man does not get
out of here alive!
He's trapped! Seal
off the exits!
You, you, come with me!
That corporate dweeb does not
leave here alive. Let's go.
It's time for.
Commander Cash!
Darn this pollution!
Don't be upset, citizens!
You look at this pond has
seen only pollution.
I see a natural bi-product
to prosperity in progress.
Factories, laboratories,
corporations employing
millions of men and women!
And what about the empty
pollution industry?
Where would they be
without pollution? Mmm?
You know, Bobby,
he's right again!
Now that's a real American hero!
Convicting killer William
Ray 'Pudface' Morgan
remains at large one
month after his escape
from the Henry Ford centre
for the morally challenged.
Police are baffled by
disappearance of the
- stop!
- You let go! I saw it first!
- I did!
- I did!
Stop that!
- I'll be back!
- Cut it out!
Stop it!
Stop it at once! Stop!
- Tell him to stop!
- Tell her to stop!
Stop! Aaaa!
Defenceless woman, will you?
No, I'm warning you!
- What seems to be the trouble?
- Help me!
They're destroying my store!
People! The good citizen always
respects the property of others.
- Give me, that's mine!
- No, it's mine! Mine!
Those are diet pills. I
kept them in the stock.
- That's the last one.
- What are you gonna do with it?
Evidence.
Hey! Now, how often have I told
you not to run around in here,
this is not a playground
most of the time
I'm sorry, I won't do it again.
- All right then, just make sure.
- Bye.
Hey! Hey!
Come on!
- Who is it?
- It's me! Let me in!
Hi Gadget, listen, this is
really not a good time
It wasn't your fault.
It's those diet pills.
They changed you. They
changed everybody. Look.
That guy who was
sneaking on the station,
he knew about it, but
he didn't tell anyone.
The pills are poison. See?
My God
I knew you wouldn't do nothing wrong.
I told you.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
What are you gonna do?
I am gonna start to act like
a police officer. Come on.
No-Gain! No-Gain! No-Gain!
No-Gain!
Keep back!
Any further assaults on this
vehicle will be met by force!
Okay, let's do it!
Put shields in, flush!
Fix nozzles!
Up!
Ready? Aim!
Spray!
This stuff really works!
Wilcox?
Stay where you are.
This truck and its contents
have been impounded.
Any questions?
Now that's crowd control.
- You called, sir?
- Yes.
What are these damn
papers you sent me?
Your man Frosh compiled them.
Are you telling me that
No-Gain did all this?
Looks that way to me, Mr.
Chairman.
- Get me Frosh. Get me the spin team.
- Yes, sir.
And turn off that damn sign!
- Okay. Who's out there?
- I don't know what you're talking
Don't play games with me! It's a trap,
isn't it? They're waiting outside?
Actually, Frosh we're
waiting on the inside.
Look, Chadaman, please
don't hurt me, okay?
I'll do anything you
want, anything you say!
I know you will, Frosh.
You both will.
Good job, Robo.
How did you find out about No-Gain?
The order just went out.
I added 2 and 2, Sergeant.
Well, you always
were good at math.
Come on, you're needed.
A cop, detective, no less, huh?
From Metro South.
That's my favorite precinct.
No-Gain didn't sell too
well down your way.
I guess street people don't
worry about losing weight, huh?
It's only for those rich cats
in Delta City to worry about,
you know, spending their complete
fortune on exercising machines,
sweating and
torturing themselves
just so they can look like
"the pretty people on TV".
Hmph women
spending all their
time in health clubs
so that hubby won't run-around
with a bimbo secretary, huh?
That's the beauty of No-Gain.
Get it? OCP sticking
it to itself.
- Not for long.
- You wanna bet?
You've only seen the
first act, sister.
The punchline comes
in the second act.
That's when Mallardo
and I take over.
- Mallardo? Is he involved in this?
- Oh yeah,
he's helped out. Isn't
that right, Frosh?
Frosh? You don't look so well.
You want a drink?
Here, let me give you
some of this swill.
Come on.
Down the hatch.
It's
A taste of his own medicine,
the very pure form of it.
Just multiply this
by a few millions,
and you've got the
beauty of No-Gain.
- What are you talking about?
- Oh, I don't know
What do you think might happen
if somebody drops, say,
couple of tons of
that stuff into, say,
the Delta City reservoir?
Reservoir? Think of all
those innocent people!
Nobody's innocent.
Heh, here comes the cavalry.
Right on cue
I got him. I've got him!
Who?
The guy who did this to me.
Pudface Morgan?
Who else, huh?
In California, the controversial
Beverly Hills Wall
continues to rise
despite protests.
City officials say that their
new poverty-free environment
will not be discriminatory
since access to the city
will remain open to anyone
who can pass the means test.
This just in. The chairman
of OCP has announced
the immediate recall of
all packets of No-Gain,
the company's popular new
appetite suppressant.
For more, we go to Martina Marx.
Dr. Julius,
this announcement caught
us all by surprise.
True, Martina,
but I am sure that
there is nothing
for No-Gain consumers
to be worried about.
This recall is a
precautionary move,
standing from an
unconfirmed report
that No-Gain packet may,
I repeat, may have
been tampered with.
- So it's probably just a false alarm?
- Exactly.
Still, the chairman of OCP
has decided to put
the public first.
If only more corporations
were as caring as OCP,
the world would be a safer
place to live for all of us.
Return fire!
Be gentle with that stuff!
Hey, follow me!
Take cover!
Let go of me, you scumbag!
- Detective Madigan is in there.
- What?
She can't be, she's suspended.
Robo, go back, it's a trap!
Say goodnight, Robowhimp!
Come on, Murphy.
Get in there!
Somebody up there loves me!
Right down Broadway!
Face down on the floor!
I said don't move!
Get them out of here.
- Robo
- whimp?
Hey, can't you take a joke?
Where's your sense of humour?
- Right here.
- Not the face! Not the face!
Are you all right?
Place that under arrest,
Detective Madigan.
