Monolith (2016) Movie Script

From the very beginning,
cars were designed to be
as powerful and
safe as possible.
And yet, the automobile
remains the most dangerous
vehicle on Earth.
With the Monolith we introduced
a whole new way of thinking.
A car as a completely
safe environment.
Adamantine nanotech body armor,
ultra thin bullet proof windows.
25 different state of the
art anti-hazard sensors.
Our brand new
exclusive vault mode.
Cars are a place where
most robberies happen.
Where women are subject
to harassment.
So we decided to finally
build the Monolith,
allowing our drivers to
utterly eliminate any risk.
Our Monolith will feature
interactive artificial
intelligence, a live driving
companion and security manager.
Her name is Lilith, you'll
love to get to know her.
All these features make
Monolith quite simply
the safest car ever built,
and the safest place for
you and your family.
- Okay, let's find some
music for you, okay.
- Good evening, how can I help?
- David, look, we
have a talking car.
- We haven't met.
My name is Lilith.
What would you like
me to call you?
- I guess just Sandra is fine.
- Justsandra, did I
pronounce that correctly.
- No, there's just,
my name is Sandra.
- Sandra, did I pronounce
that correctly?
- Yes, considering you're a car.
- Hi little human
in the backseat,
what's your name?
- How do you know there's
a baby in the car?
- According to US
demographics, 30 pound person
is most usually a baby.
- Wow, I'm impressed.
That's David.
- Hello David.
- Hey, Lilith, do you know
how much I weigh too?
- 122.4 pounds.
- Okay, I got it's
that's enough.
- Lilith, do you store
that information
about the weight?
- Of course, for safety
and comfort reasons,
I customize and continuously
improve my interface.
- Have there ever been other
people with different weights
in this car?
- Displaying latest
available data.
- Okay, so, that must be Carl.
Then, that's T. Wayne, and
I guess his girlfriend.
Who's this starving bitch?
- Sandra, I can't understand.
Incoming call, Carl.
- Look who it is.
- Hey buddy.
- Daddy.
- Oh I miss you.
- So I called you about
a half hour ago.
Guess your phone was
off or something.
- Yeah, my batter died.
I forgot my charger.
- Sandra.
- Shh, sweetie,
mom's on the phone.
- Turtle.
- Okay, you want to
play with turtle?
Here's turtle. Play
with turtle, okay.
So how was your flight?
- It was alright. A
lot of turbulence.
They made us keep
our belts buckled
til we got to LA, and
there was this woman.
- Where are you?
Are staying at the hotel
near the airport again?
- I like planes, you're the
one that's afraid of them.
- You like stewardesses.
- Can we talk about the
elephant in the room here?
How's the new car,
do you like it?
- Yeah, I mean the
car is fantastic.
It's just I don't know, I
wasn't really expecting
an armored super car.
I feel like one of your rappers.
- Anything to keep
my little man safe.
I installed the Monolith
app on your phone.
It can control every
function in the car.
Have you tried it?
- I haven't really
tried it much.
My little co-pilot won't let me.
- You really shouldn't let
him use your phone, baby.
- It's easy for you to
say when you're hundreds
of miles away.
- Look, I'm really sorry
baby, I gotta go.
- Sorry Carl, it's just, it
just doesn't feel right.
You being so far
away all the time.
- They're waiting for me at
the studio to finish the
mix, so I'll call you
when I get done, alright.
- Don't even worry about it.
I'll be asleep by the
time you get home.
- Where are you going?
- Your parents house.
- Poopy, yeah.
- I love you, you
know that right?
- I know.
Please, please, baby, please.
Shh, it's okay, I'm almost done.
I know, I know.
It's good okay.
- So, you end up going
out last night.
- I should have not have
gone out last night.
- Where did you wonder off?
- I didn't even get
that drunk though.
- I can't deal with you.
- Yeah, where'd you go?
- I hung out with that
guy I came there with,
what do you mean?
- The guy, the for the...
- Yeah, the guy.
- Did you get it done?
- Yes you did.
- Okay, fine, wait.
I'll show you.
- What does that say,
is that his name?
- You guys.
- Do you have any more?
- No, it's not his name.
- Do we have to check your body?
- No, I'm fine, it's ridiculous.
Let's go. Harassment.
- God, mommy misses Venice.
But mommy loves her
little boy, yes she does,
yes she does.
Okay, sweetie, this is the last
time before grandmas, okay.
Come on, one, two, three.
Oh.
Uh, see what you want.
- It's my marble.
- What?
- It's my marbles.
- You want the marbles?
They're kind of
dangerous, sweetie.
Yeah.
- Yes.
- Okay.
What do you say?
- Thank you.
- Thank you, yes.
Thank you, momma.
Who am I?
- Sandra.
I want this.
- This?
- Yes.
- Okay, cute, let's go.
Hi.
- Hey, how you doing?
Good, just these, and this.
- Your autograph.
- Thank you so much.
- You're welcome.
- Hey, babe, let's go.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- My friend says she knows you.
- I really don't think so.
- You from LA?
- I was.
Now, I live here.
Why am I even telling you this.
- I knew I recognized you.
Your hair looks different.
You're a singer.
- I was a singer, yes.
- Hipstars, right?
- You got me.
- No way.
How's that song go,
the bicycle song?
- Oh, please don't.
- Hipstars, sing with me.
On a bicycle made for two.
- Okay, okay.
- You know what, you should
come party with us tonight.
Amazing place.
Airport One.
What's wrong, are you
here with someone?
- Yeah, my man.
- Uh hmm.
- In the bear suit.
That's my little man.
- You have a kid?
- Uh hmm.
- So he's the one who
shut down Hipstars huh?
- No, I did.
- Guess that's it then.
Later, Hipstars.
- Bye.
Alright, David, let's go.
David?
David?
Have you seen my son.
- No, I haven't.
- David?
David?
David, David?
Oh boy, David?
David, are you in here?
David, David, stop.
David, David?
David, David.
Oh, sweetie.
- There she is, there's mom.
- Hi, sweetie.
- You have got such a cute kid.
- Come here, come here.
Hey, sweetie, you
can't run off, okay.
What did mommy tell you?
You can't go anywhere
like that, okay.
- He's okay, he's a
tough little buddy.
- You guys heard me
screaming, why didn't you
say something?
- Relax, nothing happened to
your child, thanks to us.
- Yeah, you're welcome.
- God, you guys saw me freaking out.
Are you stupid?
- Yeah, you're welcome.
- Are you freaking stupid,
leaving your child?
- What is she doing?
- He's apparently hating
where you're taking him.
- Bye, mommy.
- Have a great day,
dealing with your child.
You should have been
riled up when your child
was running off.
Unfit mother.
- David, shut up.
It's okay.
- Hey, Hipstar.
- She didn't even say thank you.
- Hey, Hipstar.
- Got to be fucking kidding me.
- All secure. Welcome
back, Sandra.
David.
- Hey, that ain't cool.
- Run.
Hipstar sucks.
- What the fuck is Hipstar?
You guys are insane.
What is that?
- Would you like me
to drive, Sandra?
- No.
We were number four on the
top 100, you know that?
We got lots of radio play.
Your mom was good.
Yeah, even though she had to do
all those silly dance moves.
Yeah.
That wasn't bad at all.
Thanks to that song,
I met your dad.
He had another wife,
but he chose me.
I don't regret a thing.
Love's in the
air, oh oh oh
Love's in the
air, yeah ah
Cold in the winter,
sunny on the inside
What are you laughing at?
Lilith, call Jessa.
Hey, stranger.
- I don't believe it.
What on Earth?
- Oh cut it out, you know
what my life is like now.
Oh, actually you don't but.
- Yeah, sorry.
- Hey, guess what?
I just met these kids in
the middle of nowhere
who remember us.
It brought back some memories.
- Are you having
second thoughts?
- No, don't worry.
So how's the record
coming along?
- Amazing, actually.
Carl saved our asses.
- Carl?
- Don't sweat it.
He just gave us the
name of a guy who does
the arrangements,
fucking genius.
I couldn't even believe it.
I'll have to figure
out a way to thank
your husband properly.
What are you doing?
- Jesus, Jess, my
son is in the car.
- Oh my god.
Sorry, someone here has
some unfinished business.
Jesus, stop it.
- You have reached
your destination.
- Are you there.
- Yeah.
Hey, how much do you weigh?
- What kind of a
question is that?
- No thanks, sorry,
I was just kidding.
So, who's gonna do lead vocals?
- Who do you think?
Moi. I mean someone
had to replace you
and it's better me than
some random chick, right?
- Where are you?
- Why?
- Who are you with?
- Why do you care?
- Is it Carl?
- Are you out of your mind?
- Answer me, Jessa, is it Carl?
- No, it's not
fucking Carl, Jesus.
- I know you Jessa,
I know how you are.
You think you can just steal
my life just like that.
- Look, I have to go.
And for the record, I'm not the
one screwing your husband.
- What do you mean?
What the fuck do
you mean, Jessa?
Who's screwing Carl?
Jessa, bitch.
- Hi, you've reached
Carl Jenkins.
- Fuck, David,
stop, David, stop.
- I'm locked in the studio.
I'll call you back,
just leave a message.
- Okay, sweetheart,
everything's fine.
Sorry, fucking marbles,
I wasn't thinking.
Okay.
New destination set.
Calculating route for
new destination.
- Daddy.
- Okay, let's try daddy again.
Pick up for fuck sake.
- Daddy.
- I get it.
- Hi, you've reached
Carl Jenkins.
- Okay, there's no daddy.
- I just purposely sent your
call to your voicemail.
Just kidding.
- Play with turtle, okay.
- I'm locked in the studio.
I'll call you back,
leave a message.
- Hang in there, sweetie.
Daddy's gonna be really
surprised to see us.
- There's an accident
on the freeway.
Delays to be expected.
- No, no, no. I don't want
to get stuck on the freeway.
- Would you like to
change the itinerary?
- Let's just take
the quickest route.
- Left turn, 1,000 feet.
- Are you sure that's
the right road?
- This is the shortest
route to avoid
traffic jam.
We will resume the
freeway in 50 miles.
Relax and enjoy the view.
Don't forget Sandra, I can
drive when you are tired.
- Lilith, thank you, but
I think I can do this
on my own.
Oh, finally a sign of life.
Maybe we can stop and
get some drinks.
Never mind.
Sorry sweetie, mommy's
just really nervous.
What is going on?
- Warning, smoke detected.
Park safely, and
please evacuate.
- Fuck.
Gotta be kidding me.
- Warning, smoke detected.
- Yeah, because I'm smoking.
Can you make the noise stop?
- Sandra, I can't understand.
- Turn off that noise.
- Do you want to
switch to full manual?
- Yes.
- This will turn off
all assisted features.
Do you wish to continue?
- It's just a stupid cigarette
and I opened the window.
- Sandra, I can't under...
- Shit.
Happy now, Lilith?
Sweetie, I'm sorry.
Mommy knows it's bad to smoke.
Today, she just
really needed it.
I'll never do it again, okay.
Are you okay? Are you
hurt, are you hurt?
Okay good.
Come on, no, sweetie, okay.
You want turtle?
- Yeah.
- Where is it?
I'll get it for you.
Oh please don't cry baby, please,
don't cry, please, please.
Okay, it's okay.
Here look, look
it's turtle, okay.
Play with turtle.
Okay.
I'm gonna go check outside
okay, just give me a minute.
And then we'll get going.
Okay, alright.
Holy shit, oh my god.
Don't be scared,
baby, mommy's here.
Just play with turtle, okay.
Give me a break.
No, no, no, no, no.
Ah, ah.
Oh god, no, no.

Don't, don't, don't.

Sweetie, you just have to
listen to what I say, okay.
Take your finger and

Sleep well, baby, it'll
all be over tomorrow.
Stay calm, stay calm.
It's all gonna be okay.
Carl's gonna come find us.
I mean, he must have
called home by now.
Although I did tell him not to.
He'll call anyway.
He'll be worried about us and
he'll come looking for us.
I mean, he has to.
Or maybe he won't.
This might be the perfect
way to get rid of us.
David, look.
It's a shooting star.
I wish.
Oh.
It's just a plane.
Of course it is.
Airport One.
Oh my god, there's

Can you unzip your
suit a little bit.
Sweetie, your bear suit,
try to unzip, please.
Just try, David.
It's okay, it's okay,
everything's okay.
I fucked up again.
Mommy has a gift for fucking up.
But I know what
I'm gonna do now.
There's an airport
nearby and I'm sure
there's someone there
that can help us.
Okay.
Oh god.
Okay.

I get the phone.
- There's no use, just
stay still, please.
- I get the phone.
- I know you're scared
in there all alone.
I know it's tough but
you've got to be a big boy.
You've got to be brave,
you've got to be strong.
Oh god.
You're gonna have a story to
tell when all this is done.
All your friends when you go
to kindergarten are gonna
think you're so cool 'cause you
spent a night in the desert.
Oh my god.
I need water.
Okay.
If I'd been a fucking girl
scout, I'd know how to get
water in the desert.
When you're older, I'm gonna
make sure you go to boy scouts.
When you're old enough.
When you're old enough.
Water.

Oh my god.
Oh my god, oh my god.

Go to hell.
David.
My love.

- It was a mistake.
- Get up.

and you know when.
- I was just trying
to keep him safe.
Just wanted to stay calm.
- You know why he's gone?
- I just wanted a cigarette.
I was going crazy that
day because of you.
This is all your fault.
- Really, Sandra?
My fault.
You know what happened here.
And if there's anyone to blame,
it's you.
- I didn't do this.
- Yes you did.
- It isn't my fault.
I didn't want this.
- This is all your
fault, you took my boy.
You killed him.
- I didn't want this,
no, I didn't want this.
- Say it.
David, David.
David.
I wanted you so badly.
It's not your fault I
messed everything up.
I'm going to hell,

You're an angel.

You couldn't see me,
but I was there.
Please forgive me.
