Chappie Page #4

Synopsis: In Johannesburg, the police department reduced the high rating of criminality using robots from the Tetravaal Company, designed by the engineer Deon Wilson. The former military Vincent Moore is envious of Deon, since he has developed another project called Moose, but neither Tetravaal nor the police department is interested. Deon has just developed an Artificial Intelligence but the Tetravaal's CEO Michelle Bradley asks him to abort the project. Deon decides to bring the damaged Robot 22 that was sent to be crushed to test his A.I. However he is kidnapped by the criminals Ninja, Yo-Landi and Amerika that want him to stop the robot cops. When they see the damaged robot in the van, they force Deon to program it to heist banks with them and they call it Chappie. However, Chappie acts like a child and need to be trained to learn and grow. Meanwhile Vincent follows Deon and plots an evil scheme to activate his robot.

- I can work with this.

All right, let's pound it out.

Like this.

Go bloop!

Boom, Chappie, go boom.

Bloop!

You hear that? Somebody's here.

- Who's here, Mommy?

- I don't know.

Hello?

It's the nerd.

What? No.

Hello.

- You shouldn't be here. Go.

- I'm here to see my...

No. He's coming back soon.

You're lucky to be alive.

- I'm just gonna say hello, if...

- What is that stuff?

I'm here to teach him.

Like we agreed. Yeah?

You're gonna catch a bullet

hanging around here, nerd.

Hello, my little one.

Hello.

Have we learnt this word yet?

Hey.

What's up, f*** mother?

How's sh*t?

Where did you learn that?

- These guys?

- Hey, hey, hey.

Watch your mouth.

Before you get yourself shanked.

Better watch your mouth.

You're gonna get yourself shanked.

Chappie, please, have respect for me.

I'm your maker.

Please. If I could just have

a moment with him.

Excuse me?

You know, surely you can go and count

your narcotics in another room.

You come in here, tell me where to go,

where to do my work?

- I don't mean to impose.

- Shut your mouth.

- I'll cut your tongue out.

- I'm sorry.

Okay, Amerika, Amerika, Amerika.

Don't count drugs in front of the kid.

I gotta get this sh*t done.

By the time I finish,

you'd better be gone.

Okay. Absolutely.

Chappie.

Listen to me, I'm your maker.

I brought you into this world, okay?

This is serious. Mustn't engage

in these people's lifestyle choices.

- What?

- No offence, okay?

No counting narcotics,

no robberies, no crimes.

- Chappie, no crimes.

- Okay. And you've gotta promise me.

What is promise?

It's that you promise me that you'll

never do any of those things, all right?

You can't break a promise, Chappie.

- Chappie promise.

- Good! Yes! Yes.

Hey! Hey, stop lecturing him.

Come on.

You said you'd teach him stuff.

Yeah, sure. Okay. Come.

Chappie, sit here. Come on.

I brought you things

to help nurture your mind...

...and develop your abilities.

It's important to use your mind, okay?

Here we go.

- What's that?

- That's a book.

It has stories, you see? Look.

Chappie wants it.

That's about a black sheep.

- Chappie's book?

- Yeah, it's yours.

Chappie's got stories.

Chappie's got a book.

Come, Chappie. I'll show you this.

- See, this is a easel.

- Easel.

These are your paints. Look at this.

See that?

- Blue.

- Yeah, like the sky.

Blue like the sky.

Listen, Chappie, in life, lots of people

will try to tell you what you can't do.

And you must never listen.

If you wanna paint, you can.

You can do anything in your life.

Chappie wants to paint.

Don't let people take away

your potential.

I'm not stopping him painting.

Go. Paint, Chappie.

Paint your colours on here,

like this. See?

- Yeah.

- Let's have fun.

- Yeah, I want it.

- Yeah.

Give. Give it to Chappie. Give.

What's the word?

Please,

may I have the paintings, Deon?

What in the name of the Lord?

That's it. Put your paint in there.

Put it on the board.

There's the Guard Key.

- Chappie is painting.

- Yeah!

Chappie, I'm so proud of you!

Good boy!

You just made a big mistake,

my friend.

Looks nice, doesn't it?

There you go. Go on.

Okay. Go on. Don't be shy.

You painted that car.

- Car.

- Well done!

- It's a car, Mommy.

- That's good, Chappie!

Paint more?

Chappie.

- Are you serious?

- We were just paint...

I need a killing machine!

- He's not here to paint!

- Don't! Just leave him!

- Stop it!

- We were just teaching him.

- I'm sorry. I'm very sorry.

- No!

What are you doing?!

He was just teaching him to paint!

He was just teaching Chappie!

- Yeah, to be a poes!

- He's mine!

I'll call the police on you

for mistreating him!

And tell them what?

You stole a police robot!

You're a filthy person.

You're a terrible, shitty person.

What's wrong with you?

He needs to be taught.

He's just a kid.

He's already smarter

than you'll ever be, philistine!

Chappie, don't let this barbarian ruin

your creativity!

Nurture your creativity, Chappie.

Maybe he's more than just

a stupid robot who shoots people.

Just let him do his stuff.

He is a kid. Don't you understand?

Yo-Landi, we said

we're doing this heist...

...because it's the only way to get us

out of sh*t before Hippo kills us!

What part of "dead"

don't you understand?

The only way we'll pull it off

is with Chappie.

- What's up, man?

- Am I right?

When? Hold on. Hold on.

- Yo-Landi, am I right?

- Yes.

- Hey, yo, yo, yo. It's Raymond.

- Oh, yeah.

He says there's a cash-move

day after tomorrow. How much?

Six hundred million.

Heading south on the N1, 7 a.m.

Okay, south, N1, 7 a.m.

Yeah.

King. Let's call the King.

We're gonna need a shaped charge.

Tell him we can do the usual.

And get the van.

- The van?

- Now. Yeah.

Yo-Landi.

I'm gonna get us out of this.

I promise.

Hey, what you doing there, little guy?

Paintings.

Oh, that's nice.

- Chappie, you see the house?

- Chappie's house?

Yeah. To help you understand

how nice it is...

...to live here

with Mommy and Daddy...

...I'll take you

to go see the real world...

...to show you how not nice it is.

Okay, you know what?

I got a fun idea.

- Chappie, you like cars, eh?

- Yes, yes.

So why don't we go for a drive

in a real car to see the real world.

I want to come.

Chappie wants to come with.

So, come, let's do it, Chappie.

Let's go for a ride.

Come on. Leave that. Leave that.

Come. Say bye to Mommy.

There you go, Chappie.

Jump into the seat.

- There you go. Sit there.

- What's up, man?

- Chappie's in the car.

- I'll tell you later.

You're sitting nice.

Who's a good boy, Chappie?

Bye, Mommy!

- The real world is very big.

- You like the real world, huh?

What is the Internet?

It's a thing in a computer.

Lets you look up sh*t you don't know.

I want it! I want that Internet.

Hey, yo.

How's he gonna find

his way back, huh?

He's a big smart robot.

Aren't you, Chappie?

Ja, Chappie's smart.

Chappie has GPS.

You sure about this?

When you get back in,

start paying rent, right?

What is this, Amerika?

- Hey, Chappie, come. Jump out.

- Chappie doesn't want to.

Come, Chappie. Come.

Come, come, come.

- It's a cop!

- Hey, I'm going to go.

- Welcome to the real world.

- Guys, watch it.

- I don't like this real world.

- It's all f***ed up.

We gotta toughen you up for the heist.

- Chappie wants to get in.

- Sorry.

Please! Please can I go in the car?!

I want to go back in the car.

Amerika? Please, no!

- It's a hell of a first day of school, eh?

- Please come back!

Please, no!

"Please, no"?

What the hell?

Don't get too close.

- What is that?

- Watch it, man.

Don't trust these f***ers.

- Hello. I'm Chappie.

- He's a pig!

Why you throwing me?

Please, may you not?

This is not a cop, man!

- He's scared!

- Check this out.

Why you do this?

Why you do this?

- "Why you do this?"

- Why you do this?

- It sounds funny.

- Chappie doesn't like it.

Chappie!

No, no! Please! Chappie...

Chappie...
