Ragdoll

Ragdoll is a microfilm in the Dragoon Universe. It was written by Dawn Marron and directed by Breigh Fouhy.

Premise
Looking to further her career in the Dye-Tech Corporation, Elois MacGregor sits down with the board of directors. They surprise her by presenting her with a medical procedure form, one that would require her being sterilized. When MacGregor is hesitant to sign, she is badgered by Chairman Phillips. Director Boyle steps in for MacGregor, allowing her to take more time to make her decision.

In a flashback, a younger Boyle holds her newborn baby. She discusses the baby's future with the father, an Alpha Clan dragoon. Boyle claims that she can raise the baby, but the father insists that the baby would most likely be persecuted as a half-breed. Their argument is cut short when a woman arrives to take the baby. Submitting to the father's will, Boyle names the baby Elois before allowing him to take her. Before he leaves, Boyle places a doll inside the baby's swaddle. The woman takes the baby and leaves.

Back in the conference room, MacGregor asks Boyle if she went through the procedure. Phillips reacts extremely defensively. After MacGregor and Phillips share a bitter exchange, Boyle steps in once again and claims she never had the operation. Phillips calmly demands MacGregor's signature. MacGregor finally appears to jot down her signature and is promptly dismissed. As she places her pen in her purse, it is revealed she is carrying the same doll that Boyle gave her baby.

Once MacGregor leaves, Phillips is handed the form. instead of her signature, it is revealed that MacGregor wrote "Screw you." Phillips is shocked, while Boyle simply smiles.
