The Robot: Boogie Machine of Doom

Part III

CHRIS: Not long. Once I'm in this'll be a piece of cake.

A popup on the screen pops up, showing the download progress. Some music plays while it's downloading, and CHRIS is violently hitting the keys on the keyboard. Camera gets a closeup of CHRIS'S forehead, where there is a bead of sweat. This is crazy, bro. The progress bar reaches 100%, and CHRIS wipes the sweat off of his brow.

CHRIS: I'm in.

Everyone claps.- "hooray." The robot jolts to life, and a screen of codes/commands pops up.

ROBOT [in a robot voice]: Ro-Bot.

CHRIS types in "robot tell truth" in the command box, and hits enter.

CHRIS: Who are you?

ROBOT: Robotron-5000.

CHRIS: I mean who were you before you got turned into a robot.

ROBOT: I don't remember.

CHRIS: Why are you trying to attack people? What's your goal here.

ROBOT: I don't know. I'm just programmed to attack. That's all I know.

CHRIS looks at the code and finds the word "attack." He deletes it and replaces it with "help."

ROBOT: Thank you, much better.

CHRIS: Now that you're on our side, you're gonna have to tell us how to defeat the robots and save the world.

ROBOT: I'm afraid I can't tell you that.

CHRIS inputs the command "tell how to save world" and hits enter.

ROBOT: Okay. Okay. You will have to play music better than the robots. The robots run on music, and they will take over the world unless someone can play better than them. But it's no use trying, they're robots, they play perfectly every time. There's no way you can beat them.

CHRIS: But we have something they don't have: soul.

CHRIS dials up BRAD on his cellular phone.

BRAD: Yo dude, what's good?

CHRIS: Long story short, we need you on guitar to save the world.

BRAD: What are you talking about bro?

CHRIS: The robots are taking over the world, bro, and the only way to beat them is by outplaying them.

BRAD: That sounds hella tight man, when is this?

CHRIS: As soon as possible, are you down?

BRAD: Yeah bro, come pick me up?

CHRIS: Yeah we will be there soon.

BRAD: Sounds like a plan, man.

CHRIS hangs up, and they all go to the car, and the robot takes a little extra to get there cause he is big and chunky and slow. In the car, ERIKA pulls out a CD, and pops it in. The band's music starts playing, and CHRIS smiles and drives off. They arrive at BRAD'S house, and they knock on the door.

SCENE 14 -

CHRIS: Hello? Brad! Are you in here? Haha come out!

BRAD opens the door.

BRAD: Hello! It's Chris!

CHRIS: That's me.

BRAD: Jesus H Christ! ROBOT!

CHRIS: It's okay, Brad, I rewired the mainframe and reprogrammed his code and now he's on our side.

BRAD: Wow Chris, you're so smart. Come on in, I gotta grab my guitar. Can I get you guys something to drink?
