Love, Death & Robots _
Season 1
Episode: Sonnie's Edge

Genres: Animation_ short_ action




Plot:
In a dystopian cyberpunk future, a scarred and traumatised young woman and her ragtag group partake in gruesome death matches where engineered beasts mercilessly tear each other apart to death for entertainment.

Sonnie (Helen Sadler) has a beast and is an undefeated fighter, considered to have some sort of secret ace. Dicko (Time Winters) attempts to bribe her to rig the fight, but Sonnie refuses. Sonnie fights in the arena, and is victorious again.

Sonnie then meets Jennifer (Hayley McLaughlin), Dicko's mistress, and implies the secret to her success is something other than what people think. In an erotic scene the first twist seen is that Jennifer betrays Sonnie and stabs her in the face with a knife-hand glove apparatus. Sonnie seems to get tricked and killed by this deception but just as Jennifer and Dicko believe that they have killed her, Sonnie one-ups them and reveals that she had fully switched places with her fighting-monster and proceeds to kill Jennifer and Dicko (supposedly) where it cuts to black and Sonnie can be heard whispering: "Are you scared now?"
