RoboCop Page #7

where law enforcement

is not only efficient,

but incorruptible.

Thank you, Alex,

for all you've done.

And for all that you are.

Detective Murphy is currently

in critical condition.

Our doctors

are working ceaselessly

but, at this time, it is

unclear if he will survive.

Ms. Kline,

how do you think the attempt

on Detective

Alex Murphy's life

will affect tomorrow's vote

for the Dreyfus Act?

At this time,

Omnicorp's sole concern

is the full recovery

of Detective Murphy.

How many times

does Detective Murphy

have to give his life

for his country?

I sincerely hope the Senate

makes the right vote tomorrow

so that Alex Murphy's sacrifices

will not have been in vain.

Senator Dreyfus is my friend.

He has been

my mentor and my strength

in times of difficulty

on this floor.

But despite all that,

I work for the state of Ohio,

and the safety of its citizens

is my top priority.

So I vote yes.

The Dreyfus Act

must be repealed.

That's us ahead,

39 to 10.

I spoke to the Senate liaison and

it looks like it's in the bag,

but we still have to tread

carefully with the politicians.

We're here live

at DPD headquarters

where moments ago, Clara Murphy

made a shocking statement.

What the hell?

Omnicorp has denied me and my

son access to Alex for weeks.

I demand to know why.

This treatment is inhuman and somebody

needs to be held accountable.

Oh, we're f***ed.

No, we only need 12 votes.

She shouldn't make

much difference.

Yeah, but what about

after the vote?

I mean, those two should

not be allowed contact.

If she starts

putting ideas in his head...

Bring her in.

I'll handle the explanation.

And what about Alex?

You know, unfortunately,

we can'tjust keep him on ice.

The shooting at the station

spooked some of the politicians.

They're our clients.

We have to take care of them.

They're fine when a machine

is lowering the murder rate,

but when a man is investigating

city politics, they get nervous.

All right. First off,

it's not a man, okay?

It's property of Omnicorp.

And politics are

the least of your concern.

I mean, this thing

solved its own murder.

How long till it realizes you

haven't been on the level with it?

If that happens,

every journalist in this country

is dying to speak to him.

I mean, we created a hero.

What happens

when he opens his mouth?

What's bigger than a hero?

Dead hero.

Get me Dr. Norton.

What is this, Raymond?

You have Mattox spying on me and now this

bullshit about a "critical condition"?

You know and I know

Alex is fine!

Calm down.

Bennett.

Your work is so good,

I don't...

Well, now,

this is not about my work!

You saw the woman on TV!

This has to stop!

You're right.

But let me

ask you something, Dennett.

What kind of life have we

really given Alex Murphy?

He's never gonna be a normal

man, a father, a husband.

By the time we put the other units

on the street, he's just...

Bennett.

Let's face it.

We failed him.

We failed Alex Murphy.

But I want you to think

about the bigger picture

because that's what

we're talking about.

The work you've done with him is

gonna be studied for decades.

You've changed

the face of history, Dennett.

No policeman is ever going to

die in the line of duty again

because of you.

You think about that.

I want that family

taken care of

beyond their wildest dreams.

We owe them that.

I agree.

I want full funding.

Ten years.

New staff, all my own people.

Fantastic.

Deal.

Hey. What's going on?

Security's here.

They're clearing everyone out.

They're not waking him up.

Whatever you do,

don't leave him alone.

What do you mean

they're not waking him up?

The voting period has ended.

The clerks have

tabulated the results.

The yeas are 63.

The nays are 22.

A majority of senators have

voted in the affirmative.

The Dreyfus Act has been

repealed by Congress.

God, you guys are slow,

like a bunch of girls.

This is Mattox.

Dennett's on board.

It's about time.

Call it.

Get it done.

My pleasure.

Mrs. Murphy... You can come

here as much as you want.

You can threaten me. You can sue me.

You can take my home.

But I am not gonna stop till I see

my husband. Do you understand that?

Mr. Sellars would

very much like to see you.

Is Alex okay?

He has important information to share

with you. Will you accompany me?

David.

We gotta go.

Can you grab your coat?

Hey!

I'm in the

elevator, on my way down.

I need access to the lab.

That's insane.

They're still here.

Distract them.

Okay.

I cannot...

There's a

lady in here going hysterical.

She will not let us in. She's

got the codes for the door.

I repeat,

she will not let us in.

Lady, you need to let us in there now.

We have to get in there.

Are you not understanding

what I'm saying?

Do you wanna be responsible for the

deaths of everyone in this building?

Hey! Stop!

Don't shoot!

Step outside.

Unlock the transmitter!

Transmitter

unlocked!

Send in Mrs. Murphy, please.

Right away, sir.

Wake him up!

Alex! Alex!

Alex, it's Dr. Norton,

you have to wake up!

Alex, can you hear me?

These men are here

to kill us.

They're here to kill us,

for chrissakes!

Mrs. Murphy, last night,

Alex had a psychotic break.

He killed an unarmed colleague

and later suffered a seizure.

We did everything,

everything, we could, but the

doctors couldn't save him.

Very sorry, Mrs. Murphy.

We're going to be making

the announcement shortly.

You shut me down. I was

about to get a confession.

Mattox shut you down.

I've removed your transmitter

so he won't do it again.

Sellars can't afford

to wake you up.

He sent these guys

to pull the plug.

He wants you dead, Alex.

Do you understand?

Sorry. If there's

anything we can do

for you and David,

we'll do it.

I want nothing from you.

I understand.

You stay out of our lives.

You and your company.

If that's what

you think is best.

There's one more thing.

I think it would be to the benefit

of everyone, especially David

if we kept

this matter private.

We don't wanna

damage Alex's legacy.

DR. NORTON'.

Alex! Alex!

I can fix this!

You lied to me.

You lied to my wife.

You're working for the people

that are trying to kill me.

You want me

to trust you, Doctor?

Alex, I can go to the press!

Alex, I can tell them

the whole story!

Alex!

Listen to me, please!

Alex! Alex!

What the hell?

Keep all our systems

at green light,

and for chrissakes,

get Sellars on the phone.

Roger that.

Damn, damn, damn, damn, damn!

Look at this city.

So beautiful.

It's become so peaceful.

I Wish

I had some good news

for Detroit.

I have very sad news.

Despite our best efforts

to save him,

Alex Murphy passed away

just hours ago.

Alex Murphy was...

Mr. Sellars.

What is it?

Mattox just called.

We need you to

come with us now.

Ma'am, I need you to turn around

and go the other way, please.

What are you talking about? We

have a security situation here.

I need you to turn around
