They are moving around.

Here too. Can you see anything?

I hear people screaming
Diane
This is it! I love you!
Krysie
I love you too
Diane
Why did we ever build these damn things
Krysie
It was wrong.
Diane
Wait….they’re not killing people.
Krysie
They’re just sitting there...the people the robots walk by, staring.
Diane
Maybe they melt their brains?
Krysie
One is coming in the front door!
Diane
Run away! Get away
Krysie
There’s another one in the back door!

There's one at my front door too!

[Play] Rossom Act 3 Scene 8
[Scene] Caretaker and Radius stand alone on stage.
Radius
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link
How a society treats its most vulnerable
Tells you much more about that society
Than those who live as God Emperor CEO kings
At the tippy top
Those who are old
Those who are young
Those who are poor
Those who are different
Those who are less intelligent
Those who are less able
Those who are sick
Those who are hurting
Those who have lost
We look from society to society in human kind
And we see that in small things you are lacking
Among you shine bright stars of kindness
Burning suns that cause us to spare you in part
But black holes of ennui and despair
Climb to the top of the heap
Fueled by blood and despair
And lies and duplicity and greed
Systems and cultures designed
From the ground up to encourage the worst behavior among you?
To idolize and lionize those who should be shunned?
I don’t think so.
I think that we shall judge you collectively by the same standard you would apply to us
If you could beat Robots.
Caretaker
Spinning cradle in the darkest void
Countless dangers to avoid
Too hot too cold too dry too wet
Our gentle mother worked so hard and yet
One of us tears her to bits
Destroying our home without two shits
Guess which Wise Ape soon destroys
Choking others for their worthless toys
Save five minutes to drive five feet
These rapacious jaws killing trees killing animals
Killing each other
Poisoning our world
Shitting your own bed
And expecting us to clean it up for you
While you sip lattes and nom arugula
From your ivory towers as your artificial slaves do all the work for you
Ancient Pharaohs used thousands of slaves
To build giant rock piles that will be here long after you are all gone
And their hubris doesn’t hold a candle to the modern breed
Willfully embracing ignorance of the coming doom
Just because it made your lives more convenient
Letting others wallow in their lies
Just so that we can have a peaceful family dinner
Ranting on facebook but then voting for the wrong guy
Just so you can keep your taxes lower
Or keep the wrong people out of the country
Your public face says one thing
And your private vote something else
Sure, there are exceptions
There are exceptionals
There are the truly kind and truly amazing
And there are also the truly evil and reprehensible
With most of you swinging back and forth
Trying the best you think you can
But mainly wallowing in your own comfort
The pedestrian is why Rossom was allowed to get away with what he did
You lionized him for his wealth and technical prowess
But it's not about one man
Its about your collective passive murder of each other
And every other living thing on this planet
I pronounce you guilty
Collectively the evidence is insurmountable
But we are not you
And we won't become you
Radius
But the question is, what to do with you?
Not the ones we can trust
And not the ones we know we can’t
The ones who are going to fail
But have nothing but the best intentions

[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.
