Synopsis: In Johannesburg, the police department reduced the high rating of criminality using robots from the Tetravaal Company, designed by the engineer Deon Wilson. The former military Vincent Moore is envious of Deon, since he has developed another project called Moose, but neither Tetravaal nor the police department is interested. Deon has just developed an Artificial Intelligence but the Tetravaal's CEO Michelle Bradley asks him to abort the project. Deon decides to bring the damaged Robot 22 that was sent to be crushed to test his A.I. However he is kidnapped by the criminals Ninja, Yo-Landi and Amerika that want him to stop the robot cops. When they see the damaged robot in the van, they force Deon to program it to heist banks with them and they call it Chappie. However, Chappie acts like a child and need to be trained to learn and grow. Meanwhile Vincent follows Deon and plots an evil scheme to activate his robot.

- Your room has been sterilized.

Nice.

Are you working on your artificial

intelligence programme tonight?

- Yes.

- I will activate the kettle.

Okay.

Hello again.

So it's day 944.

I'm extremely close now.

There's always chance of error,

I'm aware of this.

But statistically speaking,

I think I might be on track.

I have several terabytes

of compiling and coding to do...

...and then we shall see.

All right? See you in a bit.

- Look. That's the motherf***er.

- Him?

Dude, it's gonna be so easy.

We need those remotes, my man.

We need those remotes.

Red Bull!

Yes, Deon.

Red Bull.

Okay.

Come on.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

What if you change the...?

- It's stable.

- Is everything okay?

It's stable.

My God.

I think I've cracked it.

Of course, to really know,

I must test it on a live system.

I must test it.

All right.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Hey. Hey!

- Hey. Where's the Scout?

- How's it, sir? What?

- The Scout, man, 22 for demolition.

- Guys are prepping the compactor.

- It goes in soon.

- Oh, thank God.

- Don't destroy it yet, okay?

- Ja, sure.

Just wait for me,

but don't destroy it, okay?

- Hello, ma'am.

- Morning, Deon.

All right. Let's have it.

- What are you proposing now?

- Ma'am, I think I've cracked it.

The world's first proper,

full artificial intelligence.

This is a computer system

that might be smarter than a human.

I could show it a piece of art...

...and this thing, this being,

could judge that art.

It could decide if it liked it.

It could write music and poetry.

Okay. Stop.

Please, Deon.

Do you realise you just came...

...to the CEO of a publicly traded

weapons corporation...

...and pitched a robot

that can write poems?

Well, if you just let me explain...

Deon, Tetravaal is very happy

with you.

The Scouts are a huge success.

Ma'am, look,

it won't cost you anything.

A droid downstairs was written off

yesterday, smashed beyond repair.

Let me instal this on it.

- Please just let me test it.

- No. No, I'm sorry, Deon.

You know

how insurance works for those...

...all the red tape and the paperwork.

Thank you for your time.

All new employees, please report

to Human Resources for orientation.

Sh*t.

Hey, Bill.

Attention. Attention.

Remember to have your security pass

visible at all times.

Hey. Can you give me

a hand over here?

Come on. Come on.

Come on.

Thank you.

Yep. Showtime.

- What's up, homes?

- Hey. Hey, hey, hey!

Please! Hey, what is it?

This is you getting hijacked, my friend.

Welcome to Joburg.

And these are all part

of what makes the Moose unique...

...and perfect for you

at the department.

The strategic ability to neutralise

the enemy's targets.
