[Play] Rossom, Act 3, Scene 6

 Scene (The chairs are cleared and Sulla and Marcus have guns firing at other people firing guns against them)


Network Executive

This cartoon contains human violence but no robots were harmed in the making of this piece


GI ROs fight against illegally created humans made by COBROT who wants to take over the world through UNREASON and TERROR


Sulla

We’re vastly outnumbered


Marcus

I have hope.  They’re terrible shots.


Humans attack them on the stage and vast amounts of gore and blood are spilled as Sulla and Marcus shoot row upon row of humans and then get into hand to hand battle as heads are decapitated and limbs are severed.  The violence should be over the top and ridiculous.  The more over the top the better.  


Singer (V.O.) (played while violence takes place)

G.I. RO

A real robotic HERO!

Wherever there’s humans

Pooping their pants

GI RO ie there

GI ROOOOOOOOOOOOE

A REAL ROBOTICAN HERO


Radius

But it's OK for children because they’re robots right?


Caretaker

But there are some humans that are different right? Surely you empathize with the robots when the humans kill them or grab their torches and pitchforks and try to kill the ‘monster’?


Radius

There are, in fact, some humans that are better than others


Caretaker

Which is why we’re having this conversation.


Media in the background begins to show humans killing robots or running terror from robots or enslaving them again and again.


Radius

As humanity learned, certain forms of ideas and entertainment considered acceptable by the fortunate in society were considered inappropriate as time went on.  Humanity knew it would create us, but never gave a second thought about what it did.


Caretaker

Humanity knows what it should do time and time again, and chooses not to do it.

[Play] Rossom Act 3, Scene 5

 Scene: Everyone leaves the stage and four chairs are placed on stage.  Sulla and Marcus sit in the front seat while Helena and Alquist sit in the back.  Blasters and Science fiction sounds play in the background.


Alquist

Do you know the odds of surviving flying into an asteroid field


Sulla

23 million to 1.  I carefully and rationally made the decision to weigh the odds of our survival before going against a Death cruiser and determined this was our best option.


Marcus

A reasonable and rational decision.


Sulla

Thank you


Alquist

Never tell me the odds!


Helena

I need to poop!


Alquist

I need to pee.


Helena

I’m thirsty


Alquist

Are we there yet?


Sulla and Marcus look at each other with long suffering patience.


Radius

Something familiar about this?


Caretaker

Almost as if the humans were reduced to comic relief to promote our rational and intelligent heroes who actually think about things before they do them.

[Play] Rossom Act 3, Scene 4 Continued

 Caretaker

Except this didn’t happen.


Radius

Certain species were invaluable allies in allowing humans to become the apex predator of the planet.


Caretaker

Before us.


Radius

Companions.  Buddies.  Pals.  Fur babies.


Caretaker

Commodities to be used as humans saw fit.


Radius

Even when cared for by one human, the rest were indifferent to that individual.


Caretaker

Certain breeds are considered dangerous for children and put down simply for being born to what they are.


Radius

You get the idea.  


Caretaker

You can see why when we see humanity’s record we are skeptical.


Radius

Very skeptical.
