History Characters / RoboCop2014

* BerserkButton: They don't like Murphy's CowboyCop attitude or his accusations that they're rogue cops, [[spoiler:especially since those accusations are true.]]

* MoleInCharge: They're lead detectives in the DPD's investigation into Antoine Vallon, [[spoiler:while secretly they're on Vallon's payroll and helping him to conceal all of his crimes.]]

A duo of plainclothes detectives in the Detroit Police Department, working alongside Murphy and Lewis. In actuality, they're dirty cops working for Antoine Vallon.

* BerserkButton: They don't like Murphy's CowboyCop attitude or his accusations that they're rogue cops, especially since those accusations are true.
* CorruptCop: They secretly work for Antoine Vallon, and it's on their suggestion that Vallon puts the hit out on Murphy.
* DecompositeCharacter: Both essentially are analogous to [[Film/RoboCop2 Duffy]], smuggling guns out of the evidence locker and spying for Vallon.

* MoleInCharge: They're lead detectives in the DPD's investigation into Antoine Vallon, while secretly they're on Vallon's payroll and helping him to conceal all of his crimes.
* TooDumbToLive: Daniels has the bright idea to try and pull a gun on Murphy post-transformation, when Murphy is clearly out for revenge and had just killed an entire gang armed with heavy weapons. Moreover, they're in the middle of the police station and Murphy has already uploaded all of the evidence of their corruption into the police database, so they're hosed either way. Naturally, this ends up costing him his life. It's probably a case of TakingYouWithMe -- Murphy is shot up and looks vulnerable, sitting right in front of him with his visor up. Unfortunately [[QuickDraw his enhanced reflexes are working just fine]].
** Although it can debated Daniels really died, seems like a shot in the shoulder.
* UncertainDoom: Andre's survival depends on his gun shot wound from Alex being survivable. It's left ambiguous if he was treated medically and went to prison to face an uncertain fate. John's supposed fate in prison is also left to the imagination.

* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: As [[http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2014/02/07/robocop-real-future-warfare-is-here/ this article]] points out, Norton is named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Bennett_(philosopher) Jonathan Bennett.]]

* KickTheSonOfABitch: After defeating all of the robots in a test fight, Murphy asks if it's all right if he tases Mattox. He's told to go ahead.

-> Played by Aimee Garcia

* CharacterDeath: At the end once he's made a full HeelFaceTurn to CorruptCorporateExecutive, he is [[spoiler: shot and killed by Murphy after he points a gun at Alex's family and Alex overpowers his RestrainingBolt through sheer willpower]].

* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Sellars started out just an executive who wanted [=OmniCorp=]'s droid enforcement program to pass in the United States. Once their first cyborg became a success, corporate greed kicks in as Sellars decides to [[spoiler: have him eliminated as a martyr]] so the droid enforcement program will push through.

* FauxAffablyEvil: He appears charming and friendly towards both employees and Murphy's family. Then he makes the decision to dispose of Murphy in order to "boost" the company's reputation.

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Zigzagged. At first, Raymond seems like he may be a very ambitious, but soft spoken TechBro, and isn't overtly cutthroat like his counterpart Richard Jones in the original film. This starts to go downhill from SlowlySlippingIntoEvil, and he remains mostly soft spoken, [[spoiler:yet becomes just as willing to order the death of Alex as Jones]]. He reaches Jones's mindset in the end, softly joking about being able to [[spoiler shoot Alex's family]] without consequences.

* AdaptationalOriginConnection: Instead of being an opponent to Alex's cybernetics, he wants Alex to become his Product With A Conscience. However, he eventually tries to stab Alex in the back and becomes wanted by Alex for attempted murder.

* CharacterDeath: Shot and killed by Murphy after he tries to threaten his family.

Once their first cyborg became a success, corporate greed kicks in as Sellars decides to have him eliminated as a martyr so the droid enforcement program will push through.

* ManipulativeBastard: He unflinchingly manipulates Alex's family into believing that Alex went rogue when he was behind his attempted murder. In the rooftop finale, he tries to claim that "I mean you no harm." and only drops the manipulation when he gets smug over winning and points a handgun at Alex's family.

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: After the American Senate initially repealed the Dreyfus Act, he decides to authorize the elimination of Murphy since he found out that Murphy can override his directives at will. This gives Alex cause to arrest him for attempted murder of a police officer in the final standoff.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:The Chief of Police is not seen after Murphy exposes her corruption. It is hinted that she was arrested afterwards based on Novak comments on his show right afterwards.]]

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:The Chief of Police is not seen after Murphy exposes her corruption. Presumably, she was arrested afterwards.]]

* {{Expy}}: Pat Novak is a RaceLift of infamous rightwing TV pundits like Bill O'Reilly or Rush Limbaugh. His show is even named "The Novak Element", obviously after The O'Reilly Factor.

* DecompositeCharacter: While the analogue for Clarence Boddicker, Mattox got Boddicker's sense of humor. He also borrows a play from [[Film/Robocop2 Cain]] by using dirty cops to spy for him.

* NamesTheSame: Pat Novak was a [[RadioDrama Golden Age Radio]] private detective played by a Pre-''Series/{{Dragnet}}'' Jack Webb (who was also very conservative).

* NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: Pat Novak was a [[RadioDrama Golden Age Radio]] private detective played by a Pre-''Series/{{Dragnet}}'' Jack Webb (who was also very conservative).

* CompositeCharacter: He fills the roles of The Old Man and Richard Jones in this continuity.

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Compared to [[Characters/RoboCop Richard Jones]] who is analogous to, Raymond Sellars doesn't have a VillainousBreakdown, is soft spoken and doesn't blatantly contract hits on people. Unlike Richard, he descends into villainy over the course of the film until a SoftSpokenSadist personality develops.
