Neo: Ok. You got yourself into this. You can get yourself out.

( Matrix: inside a car. )

Morpheus: Are you ready for us ?

Link: Almost, sir. There are some ancient hacks here, we're working on it. Did you find Neo ?

Morpheus: Can't you see him ?

Link: No, sir. We were reading something but I couldn't tell what it was.

Neo: I can't leave yet. I have to see her.

Trinity: Now ?

Neo: This is my last chance.

( Matrix: Oracle's kitchen. )

Oracle: That's it. See ? You've got to use your hands.

Sati: Why ?

Oracle: Cookies need love like everything does.

Sati: Neo!

Oracle: I was hoping to have these done before you got here. Oh well. Sati, honey, I think it's time for a tasting. Take the bowl to Seraph and find out if they're ready.

Sati: Okay. ( to Neo ) I'm glad you got out.

Neo: Me too.

Oracle: So, do you recognize me ?

Neo: A part of you.

Oracle: Yeah, that's how it works. Some bits you lose, some bits you keep. I don't yet recognize my face in the mirror, but ... I still love candy. offers Neo a red candy )

Neo: No, thank you.

Oracle: Remember when you first walked through that door, jittery as a junebug. And now just look at you. You sure did surprise me, Neo, you still do.

Neo: You gave me a few surprises, too.

Oracle: I hope I helped.

Neo: You helped me to get here, but my question is why ? Where does this go ? Where does it end ?

Oracle: I don't know.

Neo: You don't know or you won't tell me ?

Oracle: I told you before, no one can see beyond a choice they don't understand. And I mean no one.

Neo: What choice ?

Oracle: It doesn't matter. It's my choice. I have mine to make, same as you have yours.

Neo: Does that include what things to tell me and what not to tell me ?

Oracle: Of course not.

Neo: Then why didn't you tell me about the Architect ? Why didn't you tell me about Zion and the Ones before me ? Why didn't you tell me the truth ?

Oracle: Because it wasn't time for you to know.

Neo: Who decided it wasn't time ?

Oracle: You know who. ( she points at the 'temet nosce' sign )

Neo: I did. ( Oracle nods )Then I think it's time for me to know a few more things.

Oracle: So do I.

Neo: Tell me how I separated my mind from my body without jacking in. Tell me how I stopped four sentinels by thinking it. Tell me just what the hell is happening to me.

Oracle: The power of the One extends beyond this world. It reaches from here all the way back to where it came from.

Neo: Where ?

Oracle: The Source. That's what you felt when you touched those Sentinels. But you weren't ready for it. You should be dead, but apparently you weren't ready for that, either.

Neo: The Architect told me that if I didn't return to the Source, Zion would be destroyed by midnight tonight.

Oracle: Please ... You and I may not be able to see beyond our own choices, but that man can't see past any choices.

Neo: Why not ?

Oracle: He doesn't understand them - he can't. To him they are variables in an equation. One at a time each variable must be solved and countered. That's his purpose. To balance the equation.

Neo: What's your purpose ?

Oracle: To unbalance it.

Neo: Why ? What do you want ?

Oracle: I want the same thing you want, Neo. And I am willing to go as far as you are to get it.

Neo: The end of the war. Is it going to end ?

Oracle: One way, or another.

Neo: Can Zion be saved ?

Oracle: I'm sorry, I don't have the answer to that question, but if there's an answer, there's only one place you're going to find it.

Neo: Where ?

Oracle: And if you can't find the answer, then I'm afraid there may be no tomorow for any of us.

Neo: What does that mean ?

Oracle: Everything that has a beginning has an end. I see the end coming. I see the darkness spreading. I see death. And you are all that stands in his way.

Neo: Smith.

Oracle: Very soon he's going to have the power to destroy this world, but I believe he won't stop there; he can't. He won't stop until there's nothing left at all.

Neo: What is he ?

Oracle: He is you. Your opposite, your negative, the result of the equation trying to balance itself out.

Neo: What if I can't stop him ?

Oracle: One way or another, Neo, this war is going to end. Tonight, the future of both worlds will be in your hands ... or in his.

( Onboard the Hammer. Neo gets unplugged. )

Trinity: How are you feeling ? Are you all right ?

Neo: I need time.

Roland: That figures.

Maggie: Captain Roland!

Roland: What's up, Maggie ?

Maggie: It's Bane. he's conscious.

Roland: Good. Maybe he's got some answers.

( Matrix: Oracle's kitchen. )

Oracle: Mmm, I love that smell. I sure am gonna miss it.

Seraph: Oracle.

Oracle: I know, I know. Sati, honey! Take a few cookies and go with Seraph.

Sati: Can I come back ? I would like to come back!

Oracle: I would like that too.

Sati: So I'll see you tomorrow.

Oracle: I hope so, honey, I hope so.

( Matrix: the floor in the building with the Oracle's apartment. )

Sati: I'm scared, Seraph.

Seraph: Come.

Sati: He's following us.

Smith: Well, well, it's been a long time. I remember chasing you was like chasing a ghost.

Seraph: I have beaten you before.

Smith: That's true, but as you can see, things are a little different now. ( to Sati ) And you must be the last exile.

Sati: The Oracle told me about you.

Smith: Really ? And what did she say about me ?

Sati: That you're a bad man.

Smith: Oh, I'm not so bad once you get to know me.

( Matrix: Oracle's kitchen. )

Smith: The great and powerful Oracle. We meet at last. I suppose you've been expecting me, right ? The all-knowing Oracle is never surprised. How can she be, she knows everything. But if that's true, then why is she here ? If she knew I was coming, why didn't she leave ? ( sweeps plate of cookies off table ) Maybe you knew I was going to do that, maybe you didn't. If you did, that means you baked those cookies and set that plate right there deliberately, purposefully. Which means you're sitting there also deliberately, purposefully.

Oracle: What did you do with Sati ?

Smith/Sati: Cookies need love like everything does.

Oracle: You are a bastard.

Smith: You would know, Mom.

Oracle: Do what you're here to do.

Smith: Yes, ma'am.

Smith/Oracle: ( laughs maniacally )

( The Hammer: mess hall. )

Bane: I really wish I could help, but I just... I don't remember any of it.

Roland: What are those cuts on your arms ? Those cuts are more than one day old.

Bane: Yeah, definitely. You're right about that, sir. They look like they might be self-inflicted. Why would I do something like that to myself ? Unless, of course, I wasn't myself ... but ... if I'm not me, then who am I ?

Roland: Has this man been tested for VDTs ?

Maggie: Yes, sir, it was negative. But he is showing a lot of unusual neural activity. Some cross-synaptic firing as well as signs of recent trauma, with fresh fibrotic scarring throughout the cortex.

Roland: I want the truth, I don't care what it takes. Make him remember.

( The Hammer: main deck. )

[man]: Sir ? We found her!

Roland: The Logos ?

[man]: Yes, sir.

Roland: 'Bout time we had some goddamn good news.

Are the thermals picking up any signs of life ?

AK: No, sir. Nothing yet.

Roland: What about the ship ?

AK: Well, [holo]graphic says the hull is still intact.

Roland: Drop her down [...]

[Pilot]: Yes, sir.

Roland: Get a full diagnostic on that ship as fast as humanly possible.

( Logos crash site. )

[man]: Careful, sir! The squids are sneaky bastards. Could be a trap.

What was that ?

Niobe: Put that shit away, boys. All she needs is a jump.

Morpheus: Niobe.

Niobe: Morpheus. Are you all right ?

Morpheus: Yes, I'm fine. We didn't know what happened out here. I'm sorry.

Niobe: It's okay. I'm happy to see you too. Did you get Neo out ?

Morpheus: Yes. How did you know about that ?

Niobe: The Oracle.

Morpheus: You saw her ?

Niobe: Just before the sentinels found us.

Morpheus: What did she tell you ?

Niobe: The same thing she always does. Exactly what I needed to hear.

( Zion: council room. )

Lock: In less than 12 hours, the machines will breach the dock wall. Every simulation we've run we've seen that once the machines are inside the city the odds of our survival decrease dramatically. Thus our primary objective must be to destroy or disable the diggers inside the dock. If we can do that, perhaps we can prevent them from ever reaching the city. If not, the only place we'll be able to mount an effective defense will be the entrance to the Temple. It is small enough that it will force them into a bottleneck, allowing us to concentrate the remainder of our defense.

Councillor Dillard: We understand you've requested additional volunteers.

Lock: That is correct.

Councillor West: Precisely what size of force are you planning to commit to the primary dock defense ?

Lock: Right now, the entire APU core and half the infantry.

Councillor West: Half the infantry ?

Lock: If it were up to me, Councillor, I'd take every man, woman, and child, put a gun in their hands and march them straight into that dock.

Councillor Dillard: Perhaps it is best that it is not up to you.

Lock: Time will tell, Councillor.

Councillor Hamann: Commander, just one more question. Has there been word from the Nebuchadnezzar ?

Lock: None, and at this point there's no reason to expect that there ever will be.

Councillor Hamann: Perhaps. But we can hope.

Lock: I'm afraid hope is an indulgence I don't have time for.

( Zion: Zee's and Link's home. )

Cas: Zee, what are you doing ?

Zee: Making shells.

Cas: They're evacuating our level. We have to go.

Zee: I'm not going with you.

Cas: What ?

Zee: They've called for volunteers to hold the dock.

Cas: ( to the kids ) Kids, you stay here ( to Zee ) I know how you feel, Zee, but you can't do that.

Zee: I have to.

Cas: Why ?

Zee: Because I love him. [I love him the same as] he loves me. And if I were out there and he were here, I know he would be doing the same thing.

Cas: But you're gonna get yourself killed. It's crazy, Zee.

Zee: Maybe it is. But ask yourself, if it were Dozer, and you knew the only chance you had to see him again was to hold the dock, what would you do ?

Cas: Make shells.

( Zion: dock. )

Mifune: What the shit is going on over here ?

Kid: An accident, sir! I didn't see ... I'm sorry!

Mifune: Who the hell are you ?

Kid: I'm here to volunteer, sir.

Mifune: What's a pod-born pencil-neck like you doin' volunteering for my corps ?

Kid: I want to do my part, sir! We gotta hold the dock.

Mifune: How old are you, kid ?

Kid: Eighteen

Mifune: Shoulda said sixteen, I mighta believed that!

Kid: I'm sixteen.

Mifune: Minimal age for the corps is eighteen, sixteen's too young!

Kid: The machines won't care how old I am. They'll kill me just the same.

Mifune: Ain't that the goddamned truth.

Kid: Give me a chance, sir. I won't let you down.

Mifune: If you do, you'll find me and the machines have something in common.

( Logos: main deck. )

[Man] (v.o.): Okay. Charge the igniter.

Sparks: She lives again.

[Man]: Want me to patch an uplink to reload your operations software, Sparky ?

Sparks: Yeah, that'd be swell. You can clean the windshield while you're at it. Uplinks are in place, I'm bringing her back online. Looking good, except, uh ... something wrong with the Matrix feed.

( The Hammer: main deck. )

AK: No, it's not. You're looking at what we're looking at.

Sparks (v.o.): What the hell's going on in there ?

Link: Whatever it is, it can't be good.

( The Hammer: mess hall. )

Roland: The machines have taken Junction 21. They way I see it, if we drop down from broadcast here, [at RC153], we might surprise them. We go first, hammer as deep as we can, them blow our EMP. Hopefully, we can punch a hole big enough for you to get through. It ain't pretty, but the way I see it, it's the only way back.

Niobe: There's another way. A support line. It drops down right here. A thousand meters short of 21. If we're lucky, we may be able to slip down without them ever knowing.

Roland: That's a mechanical line. It's impossible, no one can pilot mechanical.

Niobe: I can.

Roland: Bullshit.

Niobe: I've done it.

Morpheus: That was a long time ago, Niobe.

Niobe: I said I can do it.

Roland: So what ? If you can, you'll be the only one that can. There's no way we can follow you.

Neo: Hi. I know time is always against us, and I'm sorry I took so long. But I wanted to be sure.

Trinity: Sure of what ?

Neo: I know what I have to do.

Morpheus: What ?

Neo: There's no easy way to say this, so I'll just say it. I have to take one of the ships.

Roland: What ?

Morpheus: To go where ?

Neo: To the machine city.

Roland: ( laughs )

Neo: I know it's difficult to understand ...

Roland: No, it's not - you're out of your goddamn mind.

Neo: I still have to go.

Roland: You'll never make it. hundred years no ship has gone within a hundred kilometers of it, you'll never make it.

Neo: I have to try.

Morpheus: Is this what the Oracle told you ?

Neo: No.

Roland: This is asinine! If you want to kill yourself, go do it, but do it without wasting one of our ships.

Neo: You have to believe me, I have to go.

Roland: Bullshit! While I'm captain of this ship, I say where it has to go. Believe me, this ship will go to hell long before I let you take it anywhere.

Niobe: He can take mine.

Roland: You can't do that.

Niobe: Don't even think of trying to tell me what I can or cannot do with my ship after that little speech.

Roland: But for Christ's sake, Niobe ...

Niobe: I'll pilot this ship. He can take mine. If we leave inside an hour, we should reach Zion as the machines do. That's as good a plan as any.

Roland: It's a waste. A goddamn waste.

Niobe: Two ships, two directions. Sounds like providence, doesn't it, Morpheus ?

Morpheus: You've never believed in The One.

Niobe: I still don't.

Morpheus: Then why are you doing this ?

Niobe: I believe in him.

Neo: Thank you.

( The Hammer: infirmary. )

Bane: What's that ?

Maggie: To help you relax. To make it easier for you to remember.

Bane: What if I don't want to remember ?

Maggie: Why would you want that ?

Bane: What if I blew that EMP ? What if I were responsible for the death of all those men ? If I did that, it wouldn't be very safe for me here, would it ?

Of course, it might not be very safe for you, either.

( Onboard the Hammer. )

Trinity: I'm ready.

Neo: Trinity ... There's something I have to say. Something you need to understand. I know I'm supposed to go. But beyond that - I don't know ...

Trinity: I know. You don't think you're coming back. I knew it the moment you said you had to leave. I could see it in your face. Just like you knew the moment you looked at me that I was coming with you.

Neo: I'm scared, Trin.

Trinity: So am I. Took me ten minutes to buckle up one boot. But I'll tell you something. Six hours ago I told the Merovingian that I was ready to give anything and everything for you. Do you know what's changed in the past 6 hours ?

Neo: No.

Trinity: Nothing.

( The Hammer: gun bay. )

Roland (v.o.): Are you finished loading that amunition ?

Mauser: Just about, sir!

Roland: Let's move it, we are out of time.

Niobe: You're not leaving them anything ?

Roland: [He] said he didn't need it.

( The Hammer: main deck. )

Link: I ain't saying goodbye. I'm saying good luck.

Morpheus: I only hope you know what you're doing.

Neo: Me, too. It was an honour, sir.

Morpheus: No, the honour's still mine.

( The Hammer: pilot cabin. )

Mauser (v.o.): We're ready, sir.

Roland: 'Bout damn time. ( to Niobe ) We're already late, Captain, so let's hit it and hit it hard.

Niobe: Bye, baby. Take good care of them.

( The Logos: pilot cabin. )

Trinity: Ready ?

( the lights go out. )

Trinity: Engine's still firing. Must be a fuse. I'll check it out.

Bane: I should've known he'd sent his bitch first.

Trinity: Bane ?!

Bane: No one ever got away from me as many times as you did. Every single time I thought it was the last. Every time I was sure we had you, but somehow you'd slip through our fingers. I really can't express just how aggravating that can be.

Trinity: What are you talking about ?

Bane: I think I'll might enjoy killing you as much as killing him.

Trinity: Neo! It's Bane, he's psychotic!

Bane: You're gonna pay for that.

( The Hammer: pilot cabin. )

Ghost: Twenty-seven kilometers to go.

AK (v.o.): Captain, we've got an emergency down here.

Roland: What is it, AK ?

AK: It's Maggie, sir. She's dead. Murdered. I think it was Bane.

Roland: Goddamn.

( Logos: main deck). )

Roland: I knew it. I knew he was out of his goddamn mind. He fired that EMP. God damn, I should have beaten it out of him.

[Colt]: We've searched the whole ship, captain. He ain't here.

Roland: I know where he is.

Morpheus: The Logos.

Link: We gotta go back!

[Too late]: Too late.

Link: You don't know that, they could need our help!

Roland: It's too late.

Link: Why ?

Morpheus: Because if he's killed them, he'll control another EMP.

Roland: At this point, they're on their own ... just like us.

Bane: Mr. Anderson. I see you're as predictable in this world as you are in the other.

Neo: What ?

Trinity: He's out of his mind.

Bane: It might appear that way to you, but Mr. Anderson and I know that appearances can be deceiving. It'll all become clear in a moment, now, thank you for bringing the gun.You can set it down right there.

Trinity: Don't do it. Shoot. Shoot now.

Bane: Yes, shoot, fry us, burn us alive!

Trinity: Shoot, Neo. If you don't, he'll kill us both.

Bane: He knows he should do it but he won't. He can't.

Trinity: Do it.

( Neo puts the gun down. )

Bane: Back away from the gun and turn around.

Neo: Let her go.

Bane: [Somehow familiar, isn't it ?]. We've been here before, you and I. Remember ? I do. I think of nothing else.

Neo: Who are you ?

Bane: Still don't recognize me ? I admit, it is difficult to think, encased in this rotting piece of meat. The stink of it filling every breath, a suffocating cloud you can't escape. ( spits blood ) Disgusting! Look at how pathetically fragile it is. Nothing this weak is meant to survive.

Neo: What do you want ?

Bane: I want what you want.

( Neo recognizes Smith in Bane. )

Bane: Yes. That's it, Mr. Anderson. Look past flesh, look through the soft gelatin of these dull cow eyes and see your enemy.

Neo: No.

Bane: Oh yes, Mr. Anderson.

Neo: It can't be.

Bane: There's nowhere I can't go, there's nowhere I won't find you.

Neo: It's impossible.

Bane: Not impossible. Inevitable. Goodbye, Mr. Anderson.

Trinity: This is it, it's gotta be. ( She pushes a circuit breaker, the lights go out )

( Bane/Neo fight. )

Trinity: Neo.

Bane: I wish you could see yourself, Mr. Anderson. The blind messiah. You're a symbol for all of your kind, Mr. Anderson. Helpless, pathetic. Just waiting to be put out of your misery.

Neo: I can see you.

Bane: It's not over, Mr. Anderson. It's not over.

Neo: Trinity!

Trinity: Neo. Oh no. Your eyes.

Neo: I'll be okay. It's all right, Trin. But I think you'll have to drive.

( Zion: command center. )

[man]: Seismic's projecting twenty-two minutes to breach.

Lock: They can't know we don't have any EMP, they'll have to attack in waves. Concentrate our offense on the diggers. Order the APUs into position.

[man]: Yes, sir.

( Zion: dock. )

Mifune: All right, this is it. Now, you all know me, so I'll just say this as simple as I can. If it's our time to die, it's our time. All I ask is: if we have to give these bastards our lives, we give 'em hell before we do!

APU fighters: ( cheer )

( Zion: a tunnel. )

Zee: You scared, Charra ?

Charra: Shit, yeah. I'll make you a deal, though. You keep loadin', I keep shootin'.

Zee: Deal.

[Morpheus]: 600 meters.

Niobe: Shit!

Ghost: Jig's up, here they come.

Niobe: Give me full power, full systems!

Roland: [...] turrets [...]

Niobe: Ghost, you're the best gunner we have, go with them. Morpheus, take his place!

[?]: Come on, baby.

Morpheus: Here they come.

[?]: [...]

Niobe: Hold on to your lunch, [Roland,] here we go.

[?]: Holy Christ!

Roland: Damn. Didn't know this ship could do that.

( Zion: dock. )

Operations Officer Mattis: Breached! The dock is breached!

Mifune: Weapons up!

( The sentinels start coming through the breach. )

Mifune: For Zion!

[Man in APU]: Load!

( Zion: ammo compartment. )

[Man]: Reload [Nine]!

Go, go, move, move!

Mifune: [...]

[Zee/Charra]: Oh my God.

( Zion: command center. )

Lock: Where the hell's my infantry ? I want that goddamn machine taken down!

Charra: Take this!

Zee: Oh shit!

( The Hammer. )

Roland: [It's the Hammer]it's not the Logos, goddamn it.

Niobe: Shit, she's got a fat ass.

: Sentinels swarm over the hoverpads of The Hammer

Niobe: Keep 'em off me!

Roland: [There's a] shitload of 'em.

[?]: Captain! Do you see that ?

[Roland]: They're going for the radio, stop 'em!

[?]: Shit.

( Zion: control tower. )

Man: Goddamnit.

Charra: Grab my belt.

( Zee grabs her belt and Charra hangs over the precipice. )

Charra: Just give me one clean shot.

( Charra shoots, but fails to find her intended mark. )

Charra: Shit.

Zee: Charra!

( Zion: command center. )

[man]: Commander Lock, I've got incoming!

Lock: I got a dock load of incoming!

[man]: Sorry sir, but this is different, sir.

Lock: What ?

[man]: I think it's one of ours.

Lock: That's impossible [...] Contact them, I want access codes.

[?]: [I'm] trying, but there's no response.

Lock: It's a trick. [It can't be, it's] a mechanical line. No one can pilot mechanical.

( The Hammer: pilot cabin. )

Niobe: [...]

Morpheus: 30 degrees, [...]

Niobe: Full starboard, 60 degrees.

Morpheus: 60 degrees.

Niobe: Come on, keep up!

Morpheus: I'm trying!

( Zion: command center. )

[man]: Holographs are confirmed. It's the Hammer, sir.

Lock: How can that be ?

[man]: The ship is under attack, sustaining heavy damage. But at its present velocity, it'll reach Gate 3 in twelve minutes.

[man 2]: [An] EMP could take out [every sentinel]

Lock: It'd take out more than that. It'd wipe out our entire defense system. [If they use the] EMP in there we will lose the dock!

[man??]: But sir, we've already lost the dock.

Lock: Open the gate.

Zion Gate Operator: [...] critical damage, sir! [We've lost control! We] can't open it!

( The Hammer: pilot cabin. )

Morpheus: There's the exit.

Niobe: On my mark, give me full power, 90 degrees, lower right starboard.

Morpheus: Full power, 90 degrees.

Niobe: Now!

Roland: Damn, woman, you can drive.

Niobe: We ain't home yet. What about the gate ?

Morpheus: The sentinels are inside the dock.

Niobe: Are we too late ?

( Zion: command center. )

Lock: How many APUs are operational ?

[man]: [Thir]teen, sir.

Lock: Get me the one closest to Gate 3.

( Zion: dock. )

( Kid's guardians die. )

Mifune: Behind you!

Kid: It's jammed!

Mifune: [It's OK, Kid.] Get outta here!

Kid: Got it!

Captain Mifune! Oh, no.

Mifune: ..coming. They're coming. The Hammer. You have to open that gate. Cut the counterweights. [...] You can do it.

Kid: [...] I didn't finish the training program.

Mifune: Neither did I.

: Zion: Gate 3

Kid: Don't oversqueeze the trigger ...

Zion: command center

[man]: Captain Mifune's APU's just reached Gate 3!

Lock: How much time ?

[man 2]: Two minutes to impact!

Lock: Captain Mifune, do you copy ?

[man 2]: His radio is down, sir.

Lock: I don't know if you can hear me but if you can ...

( Zion: a tunnel. )

Lock (v.o.): ... the Hammer is two minutes away [...] you've got two minutes, Captain, to get that gate open.

Zee: Link!

( The Hammer: turret. )

Roland: [Link], [...] Charge the EMP!

( Zion: Gate 3. )

Zee: Do it, Kid.

Kid: Neo. I believe.

( The Hammer: pilot cabin. )

Morpheus: [...] Can we make it ?

Niobe: We ain't come this far.

Morpheus: Now, Link!

You did it.

Niobe: No. We did it.

Morpheus: You're a hell of a pilot.

Niobe: Some things in this world never change.

Morpheus: But some things do ?

Niobe: Luckily, some things do.

( Zion: dock. )

Zion crowd: ( cheer )

Zee: Link!

Link: Zee ?

Zee: Link!

Link: Zee!!!

Zee: I knew you'd come. I knew it.

Link: I made a promise.

Zee: You wore it.

Link: Are you kidding ? I 'm never gonna take it off!

( Zion: personnel gate. )

Lock: Three captains, one ship. I assume the other ships were lost under equally pointless circumstances ?

Niobe: Good to see you too, Jason.

Lock: Council's waiting to hear an explanation. You'll forgive me for not attending, but I have to try to salvage this debacle.

Roland: Did I miss something, Commander ? I thought we just saved the dock.

Lock: That's the problem with you people. You can't think for five minutes in front of your face. That EMP knocked out almost every piece of hardware and every APU. If I were the machines, I would send every Sentinel I had here right now. Saved the dock, captain? You've just handed it to them on a silver platter.

( Zion: dock. )

[?]: Come on, get it cut!

The bridge is clear.

You hear that ?

( Zion: command center. )

Lock: Get that cable cut! I want that system back online.

[man]: Commander, it's the dock. We've got incoming.

Lock: Order everyone to fall back. Seal the shaft. Now.

( Zion: dock. )

[man]: Move it!

( Zion: control center. )

[man]: All clear.

Lock: Do it. ( the shaft is sealed, and he looks up ) Your move.

( Zion: small room. )

Councillor Dillard: So you gave them your ship ?

Niobe: That is correct, Councillor, I did.

Councillor Grace: Knowing what he planned to do with it ?

Niobe: ( nods )

Councillor Grace: And the Oracle said nothing ?

Niobe: She told me Neo would need my help, and when the time came I would choose to help him or not.

Councillor West: But what help can a single vessel have against their entire defense system ?

Roland: None, it's completely impossible, but he wouldn't listen. He was totally out of his goddamn mind.

Morpheus: No, he wasn't. Neo is doing what he believes he must do. I don't know if what he's doing is right, and I don't know if he'll reach the machine city. And if he does, I don't know what he can do to save us. But I do know that as long as there's a single breath in his body, he will not give up. And neither can we.

( The Logos: pilot cabin. )

Trinity: Temperature's dropping.

Neo: We're over the fields, aren't we ?

Trinity: How do you know that ?

Neo: I can feel them.

Over there. There's our path. Can you see it ? Three lines.

Trinity: Power lines.

Neo: Follow them.

( Zion: command center. )

[Officer Wirtz]: What are they doing ?

[man]: I don't know. Lieutenant!

Lock: God damn it. [...]

[man]: What do we do now, commander ?

( Zion: small room. )

Lock: It is now a matter of time. The machines will breach the walls of the city. I recommend that the Council join the rest of the non-military personnel inside the Temple.

Councillor Grace: How long do we have ?

Lock: Two hours. Maybe less. My men have begun fortifying the entrance with enough artillery to make our last stand. Beyond that, there isn't anything more I can do.

Councillor Dillard: Commander, do you think that we have any chance of surviving ?

Lock: If I were you, Councillor, I wouldn't ask me that question. I would as him ( jerks his head toward Morpheus )

Councillor Dillard: Why ?

Lock: 'Cause he's the one who believes in miracles.

( Logos: pilot cabin. )

Neo: There, those mountains. That's it.

Trinity: Do you see what's out there ?

Neo: Yes

Trinity: If you tell me we'll make it, I'll believe you.

Neo: We'll make it. We have to.

( They fly towards 01 as the city's defense system gets activated and sends sentinel bombs their way. )

Trinity: Sentinels!

Neo: There's too many.

Trinity: Gotcha! Come on, Neo! I need help here!

Neo: I can't beat them!

Trinity: What'll we do ?

Neo: Go up ... over them.

Trinity: What!?

Neo: The sky ... it's the only way.

Trinity: Here we go.

( They get past the cloud cover and fly up into the sky. )

Trinity: Beautiful.

( They start falling back toward the ground. )

Neo: Pump the igniter. The ship will start. Again, slowly. Now!

( The Logos crashes. )

Neo: Trin ? Trinity ? Trinity ???

Trinity: I'm here.

Neo: Where ?

Trinity: Here.

Neo: We made it.

Trinity: You said we would.

Neo: It's so beautiful, Trin. Lights everywhere. Like the whole thing was built with light. I wish you could see what I see.

Trinity: You've already shown me so much.

Neo: What is it, Trinity ? What's wrong ?

Trinity: I can't come with you, Neo. I thought I could, but I can't.

Neo: Why ? Oh my God. Oh no, no, no.

Trinity: It's all right. It's time. I've done all that I could do. Now you have to do the rest. You have to finish it. You have to save Zion.

Neo: I can't. Not without you.

Trinity: Yes, you can. You will. I believe it, I always have.

Neo: Trinity ... Trinity. You can't die. You can't. You can't.

Trinity: Yes, I can. You brought me back once, but not this time. Do you remember ... on that roof after you caught me ... the last thing I said to you ?

Neo: You said: "I'm sorry."

Trinity: I wish I hadn't. That was my last thought. I wished I had one more chance, to say what really mattered, to say how much I loved you, how grateful I was for every moment I was with you. But by the time [I knew I'd] said what I wanted to, it was too late. But you brought me back. You gave me my wish. One more chance to say what I really wanted to say... Kiss me, once more. Kiss me.

( Zion: inside the city. )

[man]: [Oh my god.]

Lock: [giving orders...] Get that damn thing mounted. { a digger breaches the city dome } Hurry.

[man2]: Let's go, let's go, let's go!

( Zion: Temple. )

Link: Neo. If you're gonna do something, you better do it quick.

( 01: Deus Ex Machina. )

Neo: I only ask to say what I've come to say, after that, do what you want and I won't try and stop you.

Deus Ex Machina: Speak.

Neo: The program Smith has grown beyond your control. Soon he will spread through this city as he spread through the Matrix. You cannot stop him, but I can.

Deus Ex Machina: We don't need you. We need nothing.

Neo: If that's true, then I made a mistake and you should kill me now.

Deus Ex Machina: What do you want ?

Neo: Peace.

( Zion: Temple entrance. )

Niobe: What are they doing ? ( to Morpheus ) What are you doing ?

Lock: Morpheus!

Morpheus: He fights for us.

( 01: Deus Ex Machina. )

Deus Ex Machina: And if you fail ?

Neo: I won't.

( Matrix: city street lined with Smiths. )

Smith: Mr. Anderson, welcome back. We missed you. Like what I've done with the place ?

Neo: It ends tonight.

Smith: I know it does - I've seen it. That's why the rest of me is just going to enjoy the show - we already know that I'm the one that beats you.

Smith: Can you feel it, Mr. Anderson, closing in on you? Well, I can. I really should thank you for it, after all, it was your life that taught me the purpose of all life. The purpose of life is to end.

Smith: Why, Mr. Anderson ? Why do you do it ? Why get up ? Why keep fighting ? Do you believe you're fighting for something ? For more than your survival ? Can you tell me what it is ? Do you even know ? Is it freedom ? Or truth ? Perhaps peace ? Yes ? No ? Could it be for love ? Illusions, Mr. Anderson. Vagaries of perception. The temporary constrects of a feeble human intellect trying to deperately to justify an existence that is without meaning or purpose. And all of them as artificial as the Matrix itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love. You must be able to see it, Mr. Anderson. You must know it by now. You can't win. It's pointless to keep fighting. Why, Mr. Anderson ? Why ? Why do you persist ?!

Neo: Because I choose to.

Smith: This is my world! My world!

( Neo is knocked back against the crater wall and is lying on the ground. )

Smith/Oracle: Wait ... I've seen this. This is it, this is the end. Yes, you were laying right there, like that, I ... I ... I stand here, right here, I'm supposed to say something. I say ... 'Everything that has a beginning has an end, Neo.'

( Neo begins to get up again. )

Smith: What ? What did I just say ? No... No, this isn't right, this can't be right. Get away from me!

Neo: What are you afraid of ?

Smith: It's a trick!

Neo: You were right, Smith. You were always right. It was inevitable.

( Neo is overtaken by Smith. )

Smith: Is is it over ?

( Smith/Neo nods. The Smiths explode. )

Smith: Oh, no, no, no. No, it's not fair.

( 01: Deus Ex Machina. )

Deus Ex Machina: It is done.

( Zion: Temple entrance. )

Lock: It doesn't make sense.

Morpheus: He did it.

Kid: He saved us. It's over, he did it! He did it, he did it, it's over! It's over, he did it! He did it!

Councillor Hamann: What is it, what happened ?

Kid: He did it, sir - Neo - he did it!

Councillor Hamann: Did what ?

Kid: He ended the war, the machines are gone! The war is over, sir! The war is over!

( Zion: Temple. )

Kid: Zion! Zion! Zion, it's over! The war is over!

Link: ( yells )

Zion crowd: ( cheers )

( Zion: Temple entrance. )

Morpheus: I have imagined this moment for so long. Is this real ?

Niobe: Neo, wherever you are. Thank you.

( Matrix: city street. )

( A black cat deja-vus up to Sati. )

Sati: Good morning.

( Matrix: a lake. a bench. )

Oracle: Well, ain't this a surprise.

Architect: You've played a very dangerous game.

Oracle: Change always is.

Architect: Just how long do you think this peace is going to last ?

Oracle: As long as it can.

( Architect starts walking away. )

Oracle: What about the others ?

Architect: What others ?

Oracle: The ones that want out.

Architect: Obviously they will be freed.

Oracle: Do I have your word ?

Architect: What do you think I am ? Human ?

Sati: Oracle!

Oracle: ( laughs )

Sati: We were afraid we might not find you.

Oracle: Everything's okay now.

Sati: Look, look! ( points at sunrise )

Oracle: Just look at that! Beautiful! Did you do that ?

Sati: For Neo.

Oracle: That's nice. I know he'd love it.

Sati: Will we ever see him again ?

Oracle: I expect so. Someday.

Seraph: Did you always know ?

Oracle: Oh no. No, I didn't. But I believed. I believed.

"Neodämmerung" text ( from the Upanisads )

Brhadaranyaka Upanisad 1.3.28

asato ma sad gamaya

tamaso ma jyotir gamaya

mrtyor mamrtam gamaya

From delusion lead me to truth

From darkness lead me to light

From death lead me to immortality.

Isa Upanisad 11

vidyam cavidyam ca yas

tad vedobhayam saha

avidyaya mrtyum tirtva

vidyayamrtam asnute

He who knows both knowledge and action,

with action overcomes death

and with knowledge reaches immortality.

Mundaka Upanisad 2.2.5

yasmin dyauh prthivi cantariksam otam manah saha pranais ca sarvaih tam evaikam janatha atmanam anya vacah vimuncatha amrtasya esah setuh

In him are woven the sky and the earth and all the regions of the air, and in him rest the mind and all the powers of life. Know him as the ONE and leave aside all other words. He is the bridge of immortality.

Katha Upanisad 6.7

indriyebhyah param mano

manasah sattvam uttamam

sattvad adhi mahan atma

mahato vyaktam uttamam

Beyond the senses is the mind,

and beyond the mind is reason, its essence.

Beyond reason is the Spirit in man,

and beyond this is the Spirit of the Universe, the evolver of all.

Katha Upanisad 6.10

yada pancavatisthante

jnanani manasa saha

buddhis ca na vicestate

tam ahuh paramam gatim

When the five senses

and the mind are still,

and reason itself rests in silence,

then begins the Path supreme.

Ya ya ya ya yada yadaya

Ya ya ya ya yada yada yada yada

Yada yada yada yada yada

Mundaka Upanisad 2.2.8

bhidyate hrdayagranthis

chidyante sarvasamsayah

ksiyante casya karmani

tasmin drste paravare

And when he is seen in his immanence and transcendence,

then the ties that have bound the heart are unloosened,

the doubts of the mind vanish,

and the law of Karma works no more.
