Robocop (1994) s01e15 Episode Script

1
- Get outta here, kid, get off me!
- Hey, push!
Your selection, please.
Fifty. On Italian army in
a Cyprus-Greek conflict.
The chairman is ready for your conference,
Mr. Trenton. You have 3 minutes.
Beginning now.
Good morning, Mr. Trenton.
Good morning, sir!
I was hoping we could have a
a face-to-face.
Yes, well, I'm a busy man. You have some thoughts
regarding gambling-related crime, Mr. Trenton?
Your selection, please.
Shit.
Let's get outta here!
Violence is rising
due to the Braga-Molotov
war for control
of illegal gambling
in Old Detroit, sir.
Gambling which significantly affects
the sale of OCP lotto tickets.
Now, as vice-president in charge
of the criminal think tank,
I have come up with what I am confident
is the only viable solution.
I want to reprogram Robocop.
Get rid of all his directives and
overwrite all of that namby-pamby stuff.
I want to make him as
ruthless as the criminals.
Now, I ran some numbers
Mr. Trenton, with
ideas like that
the only numbers that should concern
you are your remaining days with OCP.
Robocop is first and
foremost a police officer.
He will not break the
law to uphold the law.
Drop your weapons and
surrender, or there will be
- trouble.
- Dust him!
And most important, Robocop represents the
most positive aspects of this corporation.
Freeze! You're under arrest!
Wager data transmitted. All
bets cleared from memory.
I just dumped the evidence.
You've got nothing on me, robot.
Don't bet on it.
I expect better of you, Mr. Trenton. And
I expect it by the end of the week.
Buchanan Max, warden
Delvecchio, private line.
What is it, J. Michael?
Activate Tin Man.
You're joking? What about the glitches?
What about
I'll take that chance!
Activate him now!
Tin Man activation.
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.
Give us three minutes, and
we'll give you the world.
This is Media Break with Bo
Harlan and Rocky Crenshaw.
Rioting broke out at the national
scholastic decathlon in Las Vegas today,
when spectators accused this young
man, Elliott "Pukie" Feldman,
of throwing the match by failing to recognize
the molecular structure of silicon
and causing the odds on
favorite Mumford High to lose.
It was a frame-up! The
opposing team brought donuts.
I was hyped on sugar, I'm not
supposed to have sweets.
Ask my mom!
It's too bad. I had 5
bucks on that one.
Speaking of bucks
Treasury department officials declared
the 1 dollar Ronald Reagan coin,
affectionately known as
"the ronnie", a success,
saying that in a second year of minting the coin has
completely replaced the traditional paper greenback.
More after this.
Hi, my name is Milt Sever, and I won 10 million
bucks playing Commander Cash scratchers.
And you know what: It's
true what they say
money talks.
Commander Cash scratchers: It's
more than a game, it's easy money!
Odds of winning are 14500000:1.
- I need you to sign off on these.
- Did that this morning, Sarge.
- Those were this morning's memos, these are the afternoon batch.
- You're kidding me.
- Yeah.
- Oh, I should've known.
From the desk of Mr. J. Michael Trenton,
executive vice-president, criminal think tank.
Robocop, where are you off to?
I have a lead in one of
Reggie Braga's pitman games.
Not until you give me those arrest reports on the
junk food "shoot-em-up" you crashed this morning.
Done.
Hey, wait a minute, Robo.
Here's a memo about you.
"Arrest record down 2%
in the last quarter.
Please adjust circuits
accordingly."
Circuits? Give that
memo to Lippencot.
Hey look, just do what I do.
Don't read them,
just initial them.
This looks just like the machines
on the ice-cream trucks.
All done. Wanna give it a test?
Scratch off 6 Commander Cashes
and win 10 million big ones.
- Just costs a ronnie to play.
- Wow, 10 million big ones!
You know, Sarge won't let me buy
anything from those trucks.
- He says they're filled with junk food and vice.
- Hey-hey, I didn't authorize that thing!
Sorry, general.
OCP's put them in every
precinct, besides
you initialed the memo.
Gadget!
On days like this I wish I could buy a
boat and you and me could sail away.
Gambling in a police
station, can you believe it?
Next thing you know we'll be
getting liquor, dancing
10 million big ones could buy
Sarge a really big boat.
With a pool table and kitchen.
Gee, I lost.
- Come on!
- To the one in the red!
Yeah, come on!
Please, come on!
You know, it's a pleasure
doing business with
enterprising young Americans
who know when to play down.
Hey, where's the rest?
Wow, donuts! Thanks, Reggie!
- You're a good boy, Pukie.
- My name's Elliott
Stitch.
Don't call me Stitch!
Yes, sir!
Let's go.
Down him, down, come on!
Well, if it isn't Reggie Braga.
Molotov!
- Perhaps we can make a deal.
- Yeah, sure.
On your knees. Now.
Okay I can be a
reasonable man.
I won't hit your
trucks no more, okay?
- We can forget about all this.
- Yeah, we're gonna forget about it all right.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Hey boss, who's that?
Get down!
- Blow him away!
- Get him!
- Drop your weapons!
- The cops!
Malloy's rule number
one: There's nothing,
nothing better than being a cop.
Malloy?
Hello! I am talking bomb. I'm
set to explode in 15 seconds.
Have a nice day. 14 seconds.
13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8,
7, 6, 5, 4
- Get out!
- Move it, move it!
Hey, Robo!
Robo, wait up!
- Can I help you?
- Can you help me?
- Murphy, what's going on with you? You all right?
- Yes. Thank you for your concern.
- Robocop!
- Oh, thank goodness!
Hey, we lost track of you after that warehouse
explosion. What happened out there?
I will file a report. Excuse me.
Guess I'll read the report.
Sergeant, can you spare a ronnie for some
coffee? I seem to have misplaced all my change.
Oh yeah.
I'm outside the court room where the
Malloy trial took a dramatic turn today.
The jury heard damning testimony from Detroit police officer,
Timothy Malloy's rookie partner, officer Alex Murphy
that he attempted to stop Malloy
from striking the suspect
Robert Prince with
several brutal blows.
Watch, there's
officer Murphy now!
Just a few words, please!
Hey, thanks, partner, thanks a lot.
How do you feel now, huh?
It was your testimony
that's gonna put me away.
Do you know what they
do to cops in prison?
He was a dirt bag, Murph!
He was a bleep dirt bag!
Officer Murphy, how do you feel knowing it was your
your own testimony that put your partner in prison?
All I did was tell the truth.
He doesn't deserve this.
He's only going to prison because you
people turned this trial into a witch hunt.
I should've lied
Malloy's rule number two:
Good cop always plays by the rules.
Even when it hurts.
Beautiful just beautiful.
I love this guy!
He single-handedly takes out two of the
nation's most vicious crime gangs,
and he's as cool as vegetable.
Hey, no offense.
Oh, wait till the old man gets a
load of this guy's handiwork!
He's gonna love it!
We are talking bonus time
and maybe even a promotion.
- Sensors registered a glitch.
- A glitch? What kind of a glitch?
He hesitated. Again.
Who cares? He pulled it off!
You know, the CIA wasn't too pleased
when it happened during a real sanction.
Larry, Larry, Larry!
You worry too much.
You gotta take some chances in this life, you know,
put your butt on the line if you wanna get ahead.
Sometimes I wonder if he can even
comprehend what's happened to him.
Larry, you really need
a change of scenery.
You hang around this zombie long
enough, he'll give anybody the creeps.
Come on, I'll buy
you dinner, huh?
And we'll bring you
back a doggy bag.
- Do you have a tissue, Lisa?
- Sure do.
- Here you go.
- Thanks.
- You know what?
- What's up?
That new motorcycle you're
always talking about,
you're gonna get it real soon.
- Is that so?
- Yep, you just wait.
Sarge, you got a sec?
- That's about all I got. Hi.
- Hi.
Why would Murphy be so
interested in this Malloy guy?
It was his testimony
that convicted him.
He was a good cop, but
he had one bad day.
Thought he could clean up
this town all by himself.
Pressure caught up, he took it out
on a suspect, put him in a hospital.
They sure threw the book at him.
The media and the politicians made sure of that.
They were like sharks at the feeding frenzy.
Look at his prison
record, it's spotless.
App for parole 3 times,
turned down every time.
What? That can't be. I should've
been called as a character witness.
Damn.
Look who was warden then.
If it isn't our old pen pal, J.
Michael Trenton?
- You're saying Murphy was checking up on Malloy last night?
- Yep.
Do me a favor, keep
an eye on Murphy.
Sorry I took so long. There was a nasty
pileup on the information highway.
- What's up, Alex?
- I need a city-wide scan on a tag I made last night.
The vigilante, you tagged him?
- Yes.
- All right, something interesting for a change.
- I'm on my way.
- Diana!
Can you access Buchanan
Max parole records?
Sorry, Alex, they're
not part of my system.
- Why?
- Just curious.
What exactly are you driving at, Mr.
Trenton?
It's all in my latest
statistics, sir.
Gambling and related criminal
activity are down by more than 40%
since the vigilante
hit Braga's arena.
- And you're suggesting
- I am strongly suggesting, sir,
that we look the other way and let
vigilante do what he's been doing.
He has no affiliation with OCP,
his actions don't reflect on us,
and look at the results he gets.
So you think the
vigilante is positive?
Is that correct, Mr. Trenton?
- The figures don't lie, Mr. Chairman.
- Uh-huh, yes, yes.
Give me today's What's
On Your Mind, 55 to 60.
Umberto, there's a man out
there who's trying to kill us.
We are not criminals.
We are businessmen.
I sell healthy sandwiches to
hungry working men in Old Detroit.
And delicious Boffo The Clown
ice-cream to the little children.
The police out there are
doing nothing to protect us.
They don't care
about the children.
They don't care about
the hungry working men.
This is because we are foreigners. They want
us all to go back to where we came from.
They allow this
madman to stalk us.
So, if you can, Reggie
Braga, Vlad Molotov,
share with our viewers and
myself, Umberto Ortega,
what you have decided to
do about this injustice.
- We're merging our companies.
- Strength through unity!
Your vigilante has just created
the largest crime cartel
in Detroit's history.
Do you like figures, Mr.
Trenton?
Well, we estimate the resulting
rise in illegal gambling
is going to cost the OCP lotto
almost 2 billion in revenue.
What have you to say to that?
Buchanan Max, warden Delvecchio!
Private line!
J. Michael?
Tell Tin Man he's taking a meeting
with Boffo the Clown tonight
and nobody walks
away from this one!
Alex, I picked up a weak
signal from your tag.
He just passed a satellite dish
on a roof at 1040 Whittaker.
Thank you, Diana.
Boffo the Clown represent the
finest in illegal gambling.
The people trust Boffo the Clown. I
don't want you messing with that image.
I will think of it. You
got my word on it
- Stitch.
- I told you, nobody calls me Stitch!
Nobody! Do you hear that?
Nobody calls me Stitch!
Especially not you!
I want him dead! Kill him!
Guns, guns, guns! There you
go being stupid again.
The first rule of good business
is: Don't kill your partner!
I apologize for being too fascinated
by that big ugly scar in your face!
Blow him away!
Please clear the area!
Come on, let's get out of here!
Surrender, Malloy.
I don't want to hurt you.
Help me I don't
want to be like this.
Tim, what happened to you?
What am I going to do? There's
gonna be an investigation.
What if Malloy glitches?
They'll find out everything!
We have broken a ton of laws, Larry. It's
gonna get real nasty from here on in.
They could put us both away for
attempted murder at the very least!
And worse than that, the old man is getting
rid of me. It's all over the offices.
I'm out of the loop, Larry. I
can't protect you anymore.
You are on your own, baby.
Do what you have to.
I'll take care of Malloy.
Malloy.
Do you remember Alex Murphy?
I I
Murphy was killed.
Yes.
Check this out.
- Wow!
- Yeah.
- Pretty high-tech.
- Yeah, it's on par with Robocop system.
And look at this.
Jesus!
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
A fabric some sort of
unstable molecular weave,
absorbs up impact like a sponge.
This thing could take a bazooka
round and still keep a crease.
You're looking at the cutting edge of Security
Concepts experimental weapons division.
There's no way in the world that Malloy escaped prison
with this kind of firepower without somebody's help.
I'm gonna find that somebody.
Wait here a minute.
Robo, it's time.
- How is he?
- He is not himself.
- Prison can do that to a man.
- Not like this.
There is something else.
Look, Murphy, he
was a good cop
But he made a mistake
and he paid for it.
He paid too much.
Ah, one Delvecchio! Detective
Madigan, Metro South.
Hi! Could you come back in a
couple of hours? Tomorrow, maybe?
Oh, tomorrow's not good for me.
I'm on the Malloy case, I was hoping
you could answer a few questions.
- W-w-what kind of questions?
- Big ones.
Like, how did he escape a maximum security
prison without it being reported?
Gadg!
Are all those yours?
So this is where all
my change went.
But Gadg, I'm not
missing this much.
I I borrowed some.
When I win, I'm going to pay everyone back.
The grand prize is 10 million big ones!
I was gonna buy you your
boat, and Lisa a motorcycle.
And something for Robocop, I
don't know what but something
- Please don't be mad at me, okay?
- Hey, hey, come here.
I'm not mad.
Gadg, you fell for the
oldest hook in the book.
There's no easy
money in real life.
All these people here, they
work real hard for their money.
You don't see them looking for
the quick payoff now, do you?
What you did is no different than the
kids who get sucked into street gambling.
And you know that's
wrong, don't you?
Sure, but this is different.
It's legal.
Yeah, it's legal. But
you stole to play it.
And that's not legal. Now you
know what I want you to do?
I want you to go tell everyone that you
borrowed money from that you are sorry
and that you're gonna pay them back.
Okay?
- Okay.
- Do it.
- I love you, Sarge.
- I love you too.
Go do what I told you.
Hey, kid!
Howdy do, general?
Just here to empty
the money machine.
- Could I borrow this hammer?
- Help yourself, buddy.
Excuse me.
Hey-hey-hey!
What, are you crazy?
You keep your damn slot
machines out of my precinct
or you're gonna need a
proctologist to find the next one.
Malloy was part of a
weapons testing program?
Of course. Many of our
inmates volunteer.
The testing program is the main
source of Buchanan's funds.
- My predecessor's idea.
- J. Michael Trenton?
- That's right.
- Why didn't you report Malloy's escape?
I thought we could
handle it internally.
Avoid embarrassment. My mistake.
Tell me, why did you put a man with
a record of mental instability
in a weapons testing program?
- We took a chance.
- You took a chance
He was a cop, he had certain
training we needed.
Training? I've seen your guinea
pig ward man is a zombie.
He couldn't have done this on his own. He
sits and waits for orders like a robot.
Now what the hell
did you do to him?
I'm not clear to give
you that information.
Well then, you tell me who can.
Otherwise I'm gonna make damn sure that you
take full credit for this little project.
We're gonna have a lock on all
the gambling in Old Detroit.
This is gonna make the OCP lottery
look like a church bingo.
Which, by the way, is something
we are to look into.
I always thought the real
money was in religion.
I'll put in on the
board's agenda.
What do you want?
Who's going to visit us?
The vigilante escaped. And
he knows where you are.
Oh, I'd say you have about
15 minutes before he gets there.
- Who's this?
- Me. I'm just a friend.
There's a detective after me,
you've gotta help me out!
Sorry, Larr, no can do.
Got my pink disc.
I'm walking and none too soon.
This detective
linked me to Malloy.
- If she gets me, she'll get you too.
- You wanna bet?
I may have been the warden, but you were
the psychiatrist with the big ideas.
Emotional amputation, you said.
Turn a man into a
flesh-and-blood robot.
Oooh, CIA'd loved it.
Their funding put Buchanan
Max in the black,
got me this nifty office,
but hey where's
the paper trail?
Bu bu
My authorizations were verbal.
And you can bet that the CIA's
as clean as I am on this.
No, the only thing
linking me to Malloy
is Malloy.
And I took care of that loose end when
I broke him out of the prison bus.
And thanks to Braga and Molotov.
Tin Man is about to be toast.
So hasta la vista, Larry!
A wire? A wire?
That's right, a wire.
So, where's Malloy?
All units, all frequencies: Be on the
lookout for the suspect Timothy Malloy.
Suspect was broken out of a prison
bus by an unknown accomplice
while on route to Buchanan
maximum security penitentiary.
Approach with extreme caution. Malloy
is considered armed and dangerous.
And Malloy's rule number three:
You always look out for your partner.
Always.
Sorry, Alex. I scanned the whole
city, there's no sign of Malloy.
Somebody must've deactivated
the tag you put on him.
He needs my help.
I will find him.
Murphy!
Trenton just spilled his guts. He sent Malloy to
Molotov's warehouse on Lakeshore. It's a set-up.
I'm on my way.
Give him.
Come on! Forget the peashooters!
What is Malloy's
rule number one?
What is Malloy's
rule number one?
There's
nothing
better than being a cop.
Cop.
Thank you
partner.
Murphy? Murphy
What did they do to us, Murph?
Right there.
I'll cover you, Murphy!
There's nothing better
than being a cop!
Get him out (?)
Over there, he's over there!
Take them, Murph!
Fire!
Police, everybody freeze!
Get back, come on, everybody!
- Okay, here we go, okay.
- What did we do?
This is ridiculous! I'm
innocent, I didn't do anything!
- He's busted in, why don't you get him?
- Come on, can we do this other way?
- This is all your fault, Stitch!
- I told you, don't call me Stitch!
Murphy, are you all right?
Where's Malloy?
There.
Dispatch, send a search boat!
Malloy's rule number three:
Always look out
for your partner.
