Small Wonder (film trilogy)


Film 1
Ted Lawson is an advanced robotics engineer who has achieved success with with his articifical intelligence applications. He lost his wife Joan who passed away due to complications with childbirth. Her life could’ve been saved, however they were out of town for a symposium and the state in which she (prematurely) went into labor was heavily pro-choice, convincing them to induce labor rather than terminate the pregnancy to save her life. She passed away leaving Ted to raise their daughter Victoria.

Ten years later, Victoria and Ted have planned an off-roading trip. Ted had been teaching her, but this was to be the first time she would be able to ride her own 4×4. Ted cancels at the last minute to meet a potential investor, assuring her that she’s skilled enough to try on her own. The investors are unconvinced that Ted’s artificial intelligence program to help communicate with vegetative patients is viable. They are also concerned about potential ethical issues raised by the technology. Ted makes an impassioned and slightly over-the top ple, which gets him fired. He returns home dejected to find policemen at his home.  Victoria has suffered a horrible crash leaving Ted wracked with guilt.

Ted steals his programming codes and equipment and hacks into the medical support systems. Miraculously, he’s successful and is able to clandestinely speak with his daughter around the house via his laptop, smartphone and  tablet devices. Taking it to the next level, he begins constructing an android. So that Victoria can “see and move on her own.” As the months pass, the android becomes more and more lifelike. Ted hires a RealDoll company to make a nonsexual model of the real Victoria (from photos) and wraps it around the android, effectively creating a near identical, robotic version of her called Vicki.

As Victoria’s life signs begin to fade,  Ted visits her in the hospital. Communicating with Vicki through his smartphone, they devise a plan to transfer Victoria’s brain into Vicki the robot, so that she can still “live” while her physical body dies. Ted signs Victoria out of the hospital under the guise of transferring her to a hospice. Instead he takes her to Mexico and pays a cartel-connected man named Jaime to hire a surgeon to transfer the brain and a cleaner to dispose of the body.

The surgery is a success. Vicki is now autonomous and Ted returns home, using the cover story that an experimental treatment was able to revive his daughter. To keep up the ruse, Vicki must try to mimic humanity, although her enhanced strength, lack of appetite and immunity to pain, fatigue, illness, etc make it challenging, but life seems to be returning to “normal.”
Meanwhile in Mexico, Victoria’s body is discovered by US agents. Jaime is tracked down and arrested. Fearing retribution from the cartel bosses for being captured, Jaime tells the agents that he was hired to dump a package by an American named Ted, but claims he had no idea it was a little girl.  The agents open an investigation on Ted and send Agents Juliana and Lynn to find him. They release Jaime to the corrupt local authorities, which are on the take from the cartel. The cartel bosses instruct Jaime that he must tie up loose ends and ensure that nothing can be traced back. Jaime is paired with cartel hitwoman, Harriet and they take off for the us to find and kill Ted.

Film 2
Ted and Vicki are on the run from Investigative Agents, Cartel assassins and must also hide the fact that Vicki is an artificial life form.

Film 3
Vicki’s secret is discovered. She and Ted now have to stop the word from getting out.

Star Trek: Captain Worf (TV Series)

The last surviving Resident of the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy arrives at the Federation and seek asylum from a massive threat, the V’Ger,  that has overtaken their entire galaxy (along with three others) and is planning on conquering the Milky Way next. With no evidence to support these claims, the resident is ordered into Federation Protective custody by Fleet Admiral Kathryn Janeway until more information can be acquired.

Three years later, the V’ger finally arrive. The Romulans and Klingons ignore Federation pleas of diplomacy and engage the V’ger. The V’ger destroys the entire Romulan and Klingon fleet and after taking a Romulan and Klingon captain prisoner to analyze their DNA structure, creates a  hyper virus that kills nearly all Romulans and Klingons in the Alpha quadrant, in a show of power and aggression before returning to the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy to call more V’Ger for a full invasion. Federation Ambassador Worf had been on assignment meeting with the Hirogen in the Delta quadrant when he received word that nearly his entire species (including his son Alexander and his old friend, Chancellor Martok) has been massacred..

Ambassador Worf  ends his retirement, reenlists and assumes command of the USS Brimstone, a sleek, Prometheus Class Starship making use of Federation, Klingon and Borg modifications. In addition to being the most powerful starship in all of Starfleet. The Brimstone requires a minimal crew compliment and Captain Worf hand-selects his team-a combination of Federation and civilian operatives:

Federation:
Cmdr. Cheryl Pike-Blackwood, great-grandaughter of Capt. Christopher Pike, First Officer
Cmdr. Kara Eden, Chief Medical Officer, and former Bajoran investigative officer
Lt. Cmdr. Ichuras, Zakadorn chief engineer, Warp technology expert
Lt.  Aaron “Barney” Cisco, Holo-programmer and counter-intel strategist

Civilian:
Katal, a Hirogen grand-hunter and close friend of Worf’s
Divok, a Klingon pilot from the house of Sto’Ka
Xochitl, marksmen, tracker and weapons specialist, though Terran, she was raised on Nausicaa

Additionally, they take the Resident to serve as a guide through the new galaxy and Zubairus, a Romulan spy who stowed away in the cargo hold but was discovered shortly after the Brimstone reaches Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy space. As the first starship to travel beyond the Milky Way galaxy, Captain Worf and the crew of the USS Brimstone have unprecedented autonomy. Though his honor prevents him from blatantly breaking Starfleet protocols and Federation laws, Captain Worf will do what he deems necessary to achieve the mission objective: Locate, detain and if necessary destroy the V’Ger threat.

Paranormal Activity Sequel

Drs. Fredrich and Averies, the psychic and demonologist (repsectively) whom we met briefly in the first Paranormal Activity film have been following the news cases involving the murders of Micah Sloat (PA1), Dan Rey, Kristi Rey (PA2), Doug Nelson, Holly Nelson, Ben, Alex Nelson and Robbie (PA4) as well as the disappearance of Katie and Hunter.  They appear as guests on an ‘unsolved mysteries’ type of news magazine program along with Ali, the niece of Katie. Ali breaks down on the live program upon learning that Fredrichs and Averies could have intervened. She, blames Fredrich and Averies for not helping when they could, physically attacks them until she is pulled away by security. Feeling guilty for not helping Micah & Katie when the had the chance, and subsequently responsible for the events/deaths that occurred,  they make plans to track down Katie and Hunter, in an effort to stop “Toby” the demon, once and for all. After the broadcast, a producer approaches them about filming their mission. At first the two occult experts are hesitant, but realize gravely that this endeavor may be their last. Not wanting their work to be in vain, and seeing the opportunity to validate the existence of the supernatural world to a mass audience, they agree to the filming.
