Juliette Faxx, a company psychologist, approaches the OCP President to convince him to let her take over the project. They figure out that Murphy only survived because of his exceedingly strong sense of duty and his moral objection to suicide. However, each project ends in disaster once the newly transformed officers realize what they have become, they become suicidal and self-destruct. Meanwhile, the Security Concepts division of OCP continues to sink millions into the development of a more advanced 'RoboCop 2'. As RoboCop is legally the property of OCP, he cannot strike and continues on his duty with the assistance of his faithful partner, Anne Lewis.

Towards that goal, OCP forces a police strike by terminating their pension plan and cutting salaries. Omni Consumer Products (OCP) plans to have Detroit default on its debt so that OCP can foreclose on the entire city, take over its government, and replace the old neighborhoods with Delta City, a new community development. When he finally sees his wife, he tells her that the face was placed on him to honor Alex Murphy. Though he attempts to reach out to his family, he eventually realizes he can never return to them. RoboCop is slowly coming to grips with the loss of his former life as Alex Murphy.
