Bertha
Thanks for the heart attack. I believe I will go and send out a recon team.

I got a better idea. Why don't we just all have a seat. And relax. It'll all be over in a few minutes.
[draw pistol]
Zack
You son of a bitch.
Coontz
Hey watch the language, there's children present.
[has pistol]
Bertha
Drop it, Coontz. I'm not going to ask twice.
[aims pistol at Coontz from behind; Coontz drops pistol]

What do you mean about "it'll all be over in a few minutes"?

Get the kids out of here! Now!

Conflict Over Law Enforcement Orders
Paul McDaggett
Sergeant, we're taking Cadillac Heights. I'll need 50 of your men armed and in full body armor in one hour. Mr Johnson, tell the CEO the demolition crews will have total access at 0600 hours tomorrow morning.
Sgt. Warren Reed
Hey, we don't do that kind of work.
McDaggett
That was a direct order, Sergeant.
Reed
Driving people out of their homes is no work for a cop!
Donald Johnson
Now, Sergeant. Fifteen years on the force is quite an investment. Your job, your pension. Maybe instead of worrying about these squatters, you might think about your own family.
[tries to convince him]
Reed
I am. I'm thinking I have to go home and face them.
[removes his badge and drops it to the floor; walks out]
Johnson
You can't do this. Look, you are employees of OCP! Now remember that. You're jeopardizing your retirement benefits!!

Call to Action Against OCP's Exploitation
Dr Marie Lazarus
People of Detroit, this is an illegal broadcast. It may be cut off at any time. So listen to me. OCP is lying to you. They're destroying people's lives for big business. Those Rehabs you see on TV, they're mercenaries hired by OCP to throw people out of their homes. You've got to believe me. I'm speaking for all the homeless and jobless citizens of this city and every city like it run by heartless capitalist scumbags, OCP doesn't care about people. OCP cares about... Your neighborhood is next unless you fight back now. Time's running out. OCP's the enemy. I repeat. Time is running out. OCP is the enemy. Help us. Innocent people are dying.
[airing a message to the public using OCP security cameras, with Nikko Halloran's help]

Corporate Ambition Meets Unexpected Consequences
OCP CEO
Kanemitsu-san, I realize that it looks bad but maybe our plans were over-ambitious. Let's start a skoshy bit smaller. Let's gentrify this neighborhood. Build strip malls. Fast-food chains. Lots of popular entertainment. What do you think? What's he saying?
[Mr Kanemitsu says a rapid phrase and walks off. to translator, thinking Kanemitsu agreed with him]
Mr Kanemitsu's aide
He said, "You're fired.
OCP CEO
I got to hand it to you. What do they call you? Murphy, is it?
RoboCop
My friends call me Murphy. You can call me... RoboCop.

Power Management and Coordination in RoboCop 3
Dr Marie Lazarus
What I've done is programmed the command system to take its cues from your hard drive. I've also rigged it to work as an auxiliary power unit. So if you ever have a power drain like yesterday, just interface with the flight pack and recharge whether you fly or not. Nikko, see those resistors over there? Get them for me, will you?
Sgt Anne Lewis
Get them for me. Promise me.
[in monitors showing RoboCop's visual memories; repeats]
Bertha
What's going on?
RoboCop
Excuse me.
Bertha
Hey, Mac, where you going?
RoboCop
Unfinished business.
[to Bertha; leaves]
Dr Lazarus
It's okay. He'll be back. He needs us too.
Nikko Halloran
Where's he going?
Dr Lazarus
To keep a promise.
