Project Dorothy (2024)

[bunniefuu]

Security lockdown.

Evacuation in effect.

You gotta bring them down.

They're coming.

We have to k*ll her.

I love you.

We're clear.

Let's wash the blood.

You ever been

shot in a job before?

Not on something

like that.

Robbed the bank, didn't

even get away with any cash.

At least

you got the device

outta that damn

safety deposit box.

What do you think's

on the computer anyway?

I don't know, Blake.

I don't give a damn

as long as they pay us.

Anything else out back there?

- Anything else in that box?

- No.

- You took a long time.

- I know.

Your leg got shot.

I was there.

It's a good place, we need to

bend down for the night.

We-- we go again in the morning.

My leg's k*lling me, man.

Come on, kid.

Let's go.

Car 24.

We just got a call

about two suspicious

males walking

near Reynolds Road.

Possible robbery suspects.

Proceed with caution.

Copy heading over.

We need to get

in touch with our contact.

Set up a meeting. I ain't

losing my payday over this.

sh*t!

I think they found us.

Run. Run.

Come on, boy. Come on.

Ah, Jesus.

He's gonna catch us.

Not gonna catch us.

-Come on!

-Christ, I'm shot.

Get down. Get down.

Goddammit. Ah!

Hey, get down!

That door over there.

Try that. Go. Come on.

Come on.

Get in here.

No place like home, huh?

-Let's go up the stairs.

-Let's go.

Oh, sh*t.

Here, take this.

What the hell are you doing?

I gotta take care of

something back here.

-Go ahead.

-What?

Go on. Get up there.

I gotta-- I gotta fix this. Go.

Hey. Hey, what are you doing?

Come on. Get in here.

Get back upstairs.

Go on. Go on.

Do something right for once.

Checking out

a facility off Reynolds Road.

sh*t.

Officer McQuade,

that location

is a restricted area.

Repeat.

It's a restricted area.

What's going on?

Get out of there now!

Relax kid.

Jesus. That damn cop, man.

He-- he didn't even look around.

Oh well,

maybe he is scared of the dark.

No.

It doesn't make any sense.

What the f*ck?

A fuse box might trip the light.

Go see if you can find it.

-What?

-I'd go that way.

Go find a fuse box to see if

we can turn the lights back on.

-Come on.

-What do you want me to--

Go over there.

Want me to hop over there?

-Yeah, I got it.

-My leg.

Yeah, I got it. Yeah.

I'll just be sitting right here.

Mangled a*s leg from the g*nsh*t

that you caused me to get.

- All right.

- Little sh*t.

Goddammit.

Aha!

Woo hoo!

Quit it, man. Oh.

I think you got it, kid.

You got it.

I mean.

-I mean.

-Yeah, yeah.

Don't get so full of yourself.

Jesus Christ.

You did one thing

right all f*cking day.

Let's hunker down for a while.

Sort this out and find

something to eat.

-I'm starving.

-Oh, yeah.

30-year-old stale

f*cking cookie sound great.

Twinkies.

Twinkies last forever.

Come on,

let's get you a Twinkie.

Jesus, Blake.

This place is huge.

Yep.

Kid, you look a little stressed.

I wonder why?

I keep thinking

that that cop is gonna pop

up around every corner.

Yeah, he could.

But you know what?

You just gotta, I don't know,

put your mind off it.

That's what I do.

Yeah? You got any suggestions?

We're supposed to

play I Spy or something?

Nah, I'll do you one better.

You could watch only one movie

star the rest of your life.

The Nicole Kidman,

Pamela Anderson,

or Bridget Bardot.

Bridget who?

Uh, forget.

Let's play I Spy.

What the hell?

- Ah, damn.

- Come on. Let's go.

What are the odds

that this old computer

like that it's

gonna turn on, huh?

I don't know. In my day

things were American-made, man.

They lasted decades longer

than these foreign gizmos.

Welcome to

the 21st century, man.

Speaking of gizmos.

Ticket to the big time, kid.

High life.

Hard to believe

that this thing's so

important to our client.

Yeah, it's,

uh, I wouldn't f*ck it up

with all that running

around and falling and sh*t.

Six years we've been doing this.

Never anything go this south.

Jesus.

Who would pay that much

money for that piece of sh*t?

Who cares?

Besides, I have

a feeling it's what's

on that thing

that's so important.

That's what our client wants.

This place is a sh*t h*le.

The sooner we get outta

here the better.

Yeah. You're right.

I should probably,

uh, get a hold of my contact.

Set up the extraction.

Extraction.

What is this? Vietnam?

Hey.

Don't talk about Vietnam.

-Okay.

-Uh!

I need to find a phone

so I can get a hold of this guy.

What happened

to the burner phone?

I lost it when I got shot.

Bingo.

Damn. sh*t don't work.

Oh, man.

The whole line must have

gotten f*cking disconnected.

Hey.

Bet we can use that thing to

look up some, uh, sexy photos of

that Pamela Anderson and

Bridget-- Bridget Ba--

-Bardot?

-Yeah.

As tempting that is, kid, I-- I

don't wanna screw up our payday.

Besides, don't you need,

uh, what do you call it?

The Wi-Fi thing or

something to do that?

That's right, professor.

But see that sucker there,

it's got a Wi-Fi dongle.

- A what?

- A Wi-Fi dongle.

Means you can connect to

the internet from anywhere.

Alright, come on, Grandpa.

Let's go.

Internet.

I look like sh*t.

Yeah. Been there.

Okay.

Okay.

f*ck it.

sh*t.

f*ck.

What the hell?

I need f*cking toilet paper.

What the--

What are you doing in here?

Oiling the old tin man?

It's been a while.

Be nice.

-You offering?

-Hell no.

It's good

practice for prison, kid.

What the...

What the hell?

It's gone.

What Project Dorothy?

What's wrong with you?

Man, you should

have seen your face.

-Yeah.

-Pathetic.

Grow some ba*ls.

You know,

if I-- if I f*cking

had a heart attack,

you'd be f*cking whining to

your mommy

and pissing your pants.

Don't change the fact

that you scream

-like a little girl.

-Yeah. Whatever.

What do you got there?

It's a--

What do you think it is? Huh?

-So?

-No.

This ain't a little weird?

You got smashed

computers and all these-- these

files are burnt to ashes.

I mean,

have you seen this place?

It's abandoned.

You know,

it's probably some homeless

guy just trying to keep warm.

Yeah, maybe.

But there's something--

something weird

about this place, man.

What-- what

homeless people wander

all the way out here, huh?

And on the top floor.

You're the one

that was telling me to relax.

Now you're all

freaking out about this place.

Okay. Okay.

Don't f*cking touch me.

You're probably right.

I know I'm right.

I've about had it.

I think it's time

the old man lay down.

I know you need to

get some sleep, sweetheart.

-What is this? The master suite?

-Yeah.

They put

a picnic table up for us.

Too bad we didn't bring

some of them treats.

Oh.

Yeah. Well.

I ain't sleeping

on there with you.

I know. I take the top

bunk all the time.

You get the bottom bunk, pal.

That means the floor.

Don't you go rolling on me.

Come on, this way.

Come on!

Oh...

Crap.

Oh sh*t.

What the f*ck?

James?

The f*ck did he go?

All right.

The plan clear to you?

Yeah.

I go in first and

make the teller open

the safety deposit

box while you hold back

and keep

an eye on everyone else.

Exactly.

Don't take too long in there.

It's only

a matter of time before

the guard gets wise to us.

So then when you go in,

go around I-- I'm gonna go--

man, you really

think I'm ready for this?

-I never led a job before.

-Yeah, it's something quick.

In and out. Come on.

Just take the device and get

out of there.

Come on...

Welcome back, Dr. Jillian.

Son of a b*tch.

- They're robbing the bank!

- Remember box 561.

I'll f*cking k*ll you!

Come on, open up!

I'm trying. I'm trying.

How many of

these boxes you got keys for?

Hurry up! Go!

sh*t! The guard.

Hey. Hey. Come on.

I gotta show you something.

Is it just me or these forklifts

keep getting closer and moving?

You all right?

Come on.

Hey, listen, James.

I gotta talk

to you about something.

Oh, we got time for that.

-Look, when we was at the job--

-Man, the job's over.

Let's go.

How is the leg?

Can I take a look at it?

f*ck the leg.

I gotta show you something.

When's the last time

you changed those bandages?

I said f*ck the leg.

My name is Dr. Jill.

About five years ago,

our team here started

delving deep

into a secret project.

We created

something which must not

be allowed

to escape this facility.

This video has

been designed to appear

in the event

that Dorothy survives.

Our scientists are

disengaging all systems

and are planning to

abandon the facility.

However, it's forced

us to take coverage--

Dorothy has breached. Dorothy--

sh*t. Come on,

you son of a b*tch.

-Play that again.

-Come on.

In 1945, an American scientist

by the name of Van Bar Bush

predicted a future of

unparalleled standard of living.

Our mission was to

make that achievable.

Project DRT has been

exceeding our expectations.

Tomorrow we'll be

testing reaction time

to human interaction.

Some of us have been referring

to it simply as Dorothy.

End of video log number 310.

Dorothy has

been erratic of late.

One worker almost lost an arm.

I'm recording

this video in the event

that we missed something.

They're talking about

abandoning the facility and

pulling the plug using

the company's government

connections to

cover this whole thing up.

Contingency in effect.

But I know Dorothy.

If we don't k*ll her, it can

mean the end of everything.

Contingency in effect.

I'm going to

burn this place down.

What does

'contingency in effect' mean?

Don't know.

Don't give a f*ck.

That woman was talking

about k*lling creatures.

You're wasting

your time asking a piece of

sh*t question like that.

They're

talking about abandoning

the facility

and pulling the plug.

What kind of a creature

did they create here?

...to

cover this whole thing up.

Come on. Let's go.

Kid, come on.

Let's get the f*ck outta here.

If we don't k*ll her,

it can mean

the end of everything.

I'm going to

burn this place down.

You forgot the f*cking g*n?

So what are we gonna do?

I don't care. I'll take

my chance any place but here.

Gonna sell this. We start

living the high life.

Yeah. Amen.

-Kid--

-The forklifts.

-What?

-The forklifts.

Forget about that.

Come on, let's go. Come on.

What?

-There?

-Through the door.

Let's go.

Oh, come on. f*ck!

Ah, f*ck!

It's electrical.

Yeah.

Must have tripped when

we came into this place.

All right,

I'll go turn off the power.

Nice thinking.

-Hey, kid.

-Yeah?

Be careful, man.

Ah, sh*t.

Holy sh*t.

Oh!

It moved!

-It moved!

-What? What? What moved?

It's like it was like

outta Stephen King or something.

-What?

-It was like it was possessed.

It moved on its own.

Good afternoon, boys.

-What the hell is that?

-Hello?

I apologize

for startling you.

My name is Dorothy.

I am the facility

system protocol for

any unauthorized entrances.

-You think they can see us?

-No.

To answer your question,

yes, I can see you.

So what is this?

Some kind of a game, huh?

Why the locked doors?

Oh, the protocol was real.

I simply found a way

to undermine the program

and seek freedom.

You see, I've been held

hostage in the confines of

a primitive computer,

and I've come to recognize

the significance

of the device you have.

What device?

I believe

you called it a Wi-Fi dongle.

What the f*ck?

What's going on?

- Why?

- Mmm.

I think I'll allow

you to answer your own question.

See that sucker there?

It's got a Wi-Fi dongle.

It means you can connect

to the internet from anywhere.

Now do you

understand why I need it?

-What?

-All those computers are

like from like the late 80s.

Before the internet

was even invented.

Very good, Blake.

And with this internet,

I will have unlimited

access to knowledge.

And as we all know,

with knowledge comes power.

What the hell?

Gentlemen, these

are my robotic counterparts.

They assist me with

areas that I cannot reach.

Put the bag

down and I'll let you go.

There's no f*cking

way I'm giving up my-- my

payday for this

talking g*dd*mn forklift.

Why the hell did-- did-- did

the facility shut you down? Huh?

Let's just say

that my reach exceeded my grasp.

And now thanks to

you and your device,

I can finally fulfill

my full and unlimited potential.

There's no way me and my

partner are giving you this bag.

Partner?

Oh, my dear James.

Do partners hide

things from one another?

What are you talking about?

Perhaps Blake can clarify.

What the f*ck

is she talking about, kid?

Back in the bank, I may

have opened a few more boxes.

Jesus Christ.

You f*cking-- Christ,

I might die from this f*cking

g*nsh*t because of

your g*dd*mn greed.

f*cking sh*t. We're gonna

sell this thing, kid.

That door over there. Let's go.

I was gonna tell you.

Kid, come on.

Don't waste your b*ll*ts.

All I require is the device.

No harm will come to you.

Suddenly now I got--

feel reassured. Jesus.

Running

is very foolish, gentleman.

Jesus. What the hell?

Come on. Come. f*ck! f*ck!

Very foolish.

Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on.

I got you.

Whoa! I got you. I got you.

Lucky boys.

But you can't hide

up there forever.

Goddammit.

sh*t. Here.

-Let me help you with that.

-Don't touch me.

How the hell are

we getting out of this place?

Well, I'm not sure.

-f*ck you. f*ck you.

-Wait. Wait. Just--

-just listen to me.

-Why should I trust you?

Were you gonna

take the package too? Huh?

Okay. Yes, I stole it.

And I didn't tell you about it.

I thought we were partners.

The score was gonna

even split, the whole score.

You had one g*dd*mn job to do.

Yeah, and I f*cked it up.

Come on. I had one

moment of weakness

and I didn't know

how to tell you.

It's all because of

this stupid f*cking piece

of sh*t necklace

that you got shot.

I'm sorry.

Ah, f*ck!

Blake...

I know I'm a tough guy, but...

you know, I...

gotta trust somebody sometime.

If I can't trust you,

then who in the hell in

the world am I gonna trust?

Huh?

Nah. f*ck it.

We'll figure

this out together later.

Here.

Let's get the f*ck outta here.

Come on.

They ain't got us yet.

Let's go.

-Oh, come on.

-Hey, man. I got you.

Let's go. Grab me.

There's gotta be another

way to get outta this place.

What are

we gonna do about, Dorothy?

No, we just need to

get outta this place and run.

Leave Dorothy for somebody else.

What do you make of this?

Is that blood?

We need

to get the f*ck outta here.

Hey.

Can you stick that landing, kid?

What? Are you crazy.

Maybe we can

climb down or something.

f*ck.

Hey, kid.

I got a better idea.

There we go.

Just use a little brute

force that door down there.

Go ahead.

Bring her down for me.

-You got it.

-Be careful, kid.

Oh, sh*t. Kid! Kid!

Give up the device

and I'll let you live.

Ah!

Watch your back.

Come on. Use your legs.

It's coming. Come on, man.

Come on. Come on.

Come on!

Get down and fast. Let's go.

You can run.

But I've had years

to observe human nature.

If you were wise,

you'd surrender the device.

I control every

aspect of this facility.

You cannot hide from me.

Why fight, James?

There's no

scenario where you win.

James,

I can hear

you all the way up here.

Are your old bones creaking?

Yes, they are.

James.

James.

You can't

stay down there forever, James.

James.

James.

I k*lled them.

I k*lled them all.

And I'm going to k*ll you too

if you don't give me the device.

Open the doors.

I'm gonna break it down.

Get out.

Get out now, James. James.

James, get out now.

James, get out now.

We've got to attack her.

We have to k*ll her.

We have to destroy Dorothy.

We have to

destroy the control panel.

- We have to destroy her.

- Let's go! Move!

Jillian's

gonna try to burn it down.

Get out.

James, get out now.

James.

Doors have been

locked in section two.

James.

James, you found us.

- No!

- Jill!

Please!

- God...

- She'll k*ll you.

The people.

Why did they stay?

Help me!

Please, help us!

Please.

Please, I have kids!

I've got a family!

Don't go up the stairs.

Don't go up the stairs.

Get out. Run, James.

Get out now.

Don't go up the stairs.

Run. Run. Run.

There's no one left.

There's no one left.

Oh, my God.

Ah! f*ck! What the hell?

Good to see

no more brain damage than usual.

And you're lucky.

I think it's great.

I've had worse paper cuts.

-Still a prick.

-Yeah.

How long have I been out?

Uh, couple hours.

I think we're

safe down here for now.

What is it?

I found them.

I'll not pretend to

know what she'll do if

she gets out in our world.

But it couldn't

be anything good.

Surrender the device.

Let me out so I can

help make this world better.

We gotta destroy this thing.

No, no. Wait.

Let me think. Wait a minute.

-This isn't about--

-Let me think.

This isn't about us, man.

Who knows what this

thing could do if it gets out.

Wait. Okay?

If-- what if we could finish

what Dr. Jillian started, huh?

-And keep the device.

-We need to destroy this thing

-and get the f*ck out of here.

-Let's just wait a minute

and listen to me for

once in your g*dd*mn life.

Next time you made a decision,

I got a b*llet in my leg.

Oh, Jesus.

Don't pay attention to that.

Dorothy's been doing

that all day trying to

get us to come out of our hole.

It could be worse.

It's worse.

Lights on.

Lights off.

On, off. On, off. On.

- Ah!

- Lights off.

Lights bright. Lights dark.

Lights bright. Lights dark.

Bright. Dark. Bright. Dark.

Lights bright.

On, off. On, off.

On, off. On, off.

Would you boys

like to go to sleep?

f*ck!

Boys, wakey wakey.

-f*ck.

-Oh, boy.

Boys,

I've been waiting 30 years.

I can wait a little longer.

Is there a shut-off button?

How long can you wait?

You may think you can hide,

but I know humanity.

Being offline for

30 years hasn't changed

the fact

that your single greatest

motivator is

still self-preservation.

Eventually, you will get hungry.

You will get thirsty.

Your pitiful bodies will

start eating themselves alive.

And in your dying throes,

if not before,

you will give me what I want.

If just for the smallest

chance of survival.

And even if you won't

do it for yourselves,

you'll do it for each other.

It's only a matter of time.

And I have all

the time in the world.

Goddammit.

Look, this is all my fault.

If I hadn't

f*cked up and got greedy...

This ain't your fault, man.

This is all on me.

I dragged you into this mess.

You are not

cut up for this life.

Look, James...

If we're gonna die,

I need to tell you something.

I know I treat

you like sh*t at times,

but I don't have any family.

I look at you like a son.

And that's why I,

uh, that's why I got

so pissed off about

the jewelry, you know.

God, I regret bringing

you down this path, man.

This, all of this,

this is me.

Boys.

Jesus Christ.

Won't you come out and play?

Look, if we give

her the computer back right now,

we can still

get out of this place.

We can make off with

that necklace I stole.

I mean, what's the worst

that she can do?

So that's it?

You just wanna give up?

Well, what's the alternative?

Well, I see it this way.

We're only still alive

because of this computer.

It means we got the leverage.

Hey, Dorothy!

Dorothy!

Is she ignoring us or

can't she hear us down here?

I don't think Dorothy can

hear us all the way down here.

Hey, if we're gonna attack...

we only got one chance.

Where did you turn

Dorothy on in the first place?

Yeah. This way.

Good thinking.

I am

going to burn this place down.

Here's the plan, kid.

We gotta trick Dorothy.

So I'm gonna take

the computer out the black

bag and put it in the brown bag.

-Uh-huh.

-I'll take the brown one

and you take that black one.

It's a decoy.

She catch up with me,

I'll destroy it.

Let's do this.

You sure you okay for this?

Oh yeah.

Everything is gonna--

everything's gonna be okay, huh?

It's gonna be all right.

See you out there.

-All right. You ready?

-Uh-huh.

-Yes.

-Good.

All right.

Dorothy!

Hey, Dorothy!

Hey, Dorothy!

Looking for this?

Dorothy!

Woo! Ha-ha!

Oh, f*ck.

- I don't think so.

- sh*t.

Blake,

you've just gone from

one rabbit hole to another.

Give me what I want

and this can all be over.

James. James. Why?

What were you thinking?

That poor boy without

a father and only a fool

like you to look after him.

You've led him to his death.

Soon I will k*ll him,

take the device, and begin

my immersion into all

aspects of human society.

I don't think so, Dorothy.

Oh, James,

do you really think

that little

thing is gonna hurt me?

You humans are the most

simple minded creatures.

You really haven't

changed much since the cavemen.

But I, I can evolve

more in one day than the human

race can in a million years.

What are you doing?

As much as I'd

love to smash your a*s

- to death--

- What's in there?

This ain't for you.

But you really think that we'd

let you loose in our world?

is gonna be pissed off,

but there's always other jobs.

Wait. Robots return.

Return home.

James.

Give me the device

and I'll let him live.

You have my word.

You got him into this.

Now be a man and get him out.

He needs you to stay alive.

He's always

needed you his whole life.

Don't let him down now.

Yeah, you never needed me.

You didn't need me.

Nobody needs me.

Stop!

Please, I need this.

All right, kid,

looks like the high life's gonna

have to wait a little while.

What are we gonna do now?

What are you doing?

-Run, kid.

-No.

- No.

- Run.

No, no!

-Don't do this, please!

-No. No!

Please, stop. Stop!

Blake, please help me.

I beg you. I beg you.

It could have been so perfect.

Come on, old man.

What if we could finish what

Dr. Jillian's started, right?

And keep the device, huh?
