Classic transfrmation scene where the film’s heroine Maria is begiing her transformation into the Robotrix, on industrialist Fredersen’s orders to mad scientist Rotwang to give Maria's likeness to the robot so that it can discredit her among the drone-like subterranean workers, but is unaware that Rotwang plans to use the robot to destroy Metropolis and ruin both Fredersen and Freder. Rotwang kidnaps Maria, transfers her likeness to the robot, then sends the robot to Fredersen. Freder finds the two embracing and, believing it is the real Maria, falls into a prolonged delirium. Intercut with his hallucinations, the false Maria unleashes chaos throughout Metropolis, driving men to murder and stirring dissent among the workers.
