He locates the home of his widow and son and begins watching them until she brings litigation against OCP, but when she meets him face-to-face and is responsive to him, RoboCop claims not to know her and that her husband is dead. OCP attempts to develop a "RoboCop 2" using the brains of <a href="/wiki/Legal_death" title="Legal death">legally-dead</a> police officers, intending to mass produce them to replace human officers. However, all subjects kill themselves upon activation. Psychologist Juliette Faxx suggests that the error is the test subjects, and that Murphy was a success because of his strict Catholic upbringing and moral code, preventing him from committing suicide and reinforcing his devotion to his duty. Faxx begins screening suitable candidates for the project, but instead of police officers she secretly considers <a href="/wiki/Death_row" title="Death row">death row</a> inmates who desire power and immortality. </p><p>RoboCop raids a construction sight used by Cain's gang, but he is ambushed and dismembered, and the pieces dumped in front of the precinct. RoboCop is repaired, but Faxx intentionally reprograms him with more than 300 new directives that severely impede his ability to perform his duties so that her project can be selected. RoboCop eventually clears these by shocking himself with a high-voltage transformer and rebooting his system. He convinces the police to aid him in raiding Cain's hideout, and Cain is heavily wounded and arrested and put in hospital care. Cain's lieutenant, a prepubescent boy named Hob, escapes and takes control of his empire. Believing she can control Cain via his Nuke addiction, Faxx selects him for the RoboCop 2 project and disconnects his life support. His brain is removed and implanted in a new cyborg body. Hob contacts the mayor and offers to cover the city's debt to OCP in exchange for leniency towards Nuke, and OCP sends RoboCop 2 to stop the deal. The mayor escapes but RoboCop 2 slaughters everyone else present, and RoboCop arrives and is told by a wounded Hob that Cain was the attacker before he dies. </p><p>The chairman of OCP presents an unveiling ceremony for RoboCop 2 and Delta City, and RoboCop 2 begins to go berserk when he holds up a canister of Nuke. RoboCop arrives and the two cyborgs battle, ending with Lewis using the Nuke cannister to distract RoboCop 2 so RoboCop can climb on its back. He rips out Cain's brain and smashes it on the street, deactivating RoboCop 2. OCP decide to use Dr. Faxx as a scapegoat for the failure of RoboCop 2 but intend to move ahead with construction of Delta City. Lewis complains that OCP will once again avoid accountability, but RoboCop insists they must be patient because "we're only human". </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=RoboCop_2&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;min-width: min(25em, 100%);"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Peter_Weller" title="Peter Weller">Peter Weller</a> as <a href="/wiki/RoboCop_(character)" title="RoboCop (character)">Officer Alex Murphy / RoboCop</a>, a cyborg police officer</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Nancy_Allen_(actress)" title="Nancy Allen (actress)">Nancy Allen</a> as Officer Anne Lewis, the partner of RoboCop</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Belinda_Bauer_(actress)" title="Belinda Bauer (actress)">Belinda Bauer</a> as Dr. Juliette Faxx, a psychologist working for OCP</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Dan_O%27Herlihy" title="Dan O'Herlihy">Dan O'Herlihy</a> as "The Old Man", OCP President</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Felton_Perry" title="Felton Perry">Felton Perry</a> as Donald Johnson</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Tom_Noonan" title="Tom Noonan">Tom Noonan</a> as Cain, the leader of a drug cartel</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Willard_E._Pugh" title="Willard E.
