The Matrix - Introduction to the Real World
Tank: [''Enters Neo's quarters''; ''Neo shakes head'']
Morning, did you sleep? You will tonight, I guarantee it. I’m Tank, I’ll be your operator.
Neo: [''Noticing Tank's lack of electrical sockets'']
You don’t... you don’t have any...
Tank:
Holes? Nope. Me and my brother Dozer, we’re both one hundred percent pure, old fashioned, home-grown human, born free right here in the real world. Genuine child of Zion.
Neo:
Zion?
Tank:
If the war was over tomorrow, Zion’s where the party would be.
Neo:
It’s a city?
Tank:
The last human city. The only place we have left.
Neo:
Where is it?
Tank: [''Nodding head'']
Deep underground, near the Earth’s core, where it’s still warm. You live long enough, you might even see it. Goddamn, I... I got to tell you, I’m fairly excited to see what you’re capable of, if Morpheus is right and all... We’re not supposed to talk about this, but if you are... damn, it’s a very exciting time. We got a lot to do. Let’s get to it...
Tank: [''Jumps into operator seat with Neo in his plug-in seat and Tank is rifling through [[w:Floppy disk|floppy discs; ''holds up floppy'']
Now, we’re supposed to start with these operation programs first, that’s major boring shit. Let’s do something a little more fun. How about... combat training?
Neo: [''Reading on screen''; [w:Jujutsu|Jujitsu; ''Tank uploads program'']
]? I’m going to learn Jujitsu? Holy shit!
Tank: [[w:Life (cereal)|Hey Mikey, I think he likes it]
]. How about some more?
Neo:
Hell yes!
Morpheus: [''Leaning over Tank'']
How is he?
Tank:
Ten hours straight. He’s... a machine.
Neo: [''To Morpheus leaning over him''; [w:Kung Fun|Kung Fu]
I know ].
Morpheus: [''In the sparring program''; ''They fight a round''; ''Wagging fingers'']
Show me. This is a sparring program, similar to the programmed reality of the Matrix. It has the same basic rules, rules like gravity. What you must learn is that these rules are no different that the rules of a computer system. Some of them can be bent. Others can be broken. Understand? Then hit me. If you can. Good. Adaptation, improvisation. But your weakness is not your technique.
Mouse: [''To the Nebuchadnezzar crew in the mess''; ''They all scramble to see'']
Morpheus is fighting Neo.
Morpheus:
How did I beat you?
Neo:
You’re too fast.
Morpheus:
Do you believe that my being stronger or faster has anything to do with my muscles, in this place? You think that’s air you’re breathing now...? Again.
Mouse:
Jesus Christ, he’s fast. Take a look at his neural kinetics, they’re way above normal.
Morpheus:
What are you waiting for? You’re faster than this. Don’t think you are, know you are. Come on! Stop trying to hit me and HIT me!
Mouse:
I don’t believe it.
Neo:
I know what you’re trying to do.
Morpheus: [''The jump program simulation is initiated Neo and Morpheus are on top of a skyscraper''; ''Morpheus jumps from the skyscraper to another skyscraper'']
I’m trying to free your mind, Neo, but I can only show you the door, you’re the one that has to walk through it. Tank, load the jump program... You have to let it all go, Neo, fear, doubt, and disbelief. Free your mind.
Neo: [''Makes focus-on-the-task-gestures'']
Whoa. Okie dokie. Free my mind.
Mouse:
So what if he makes it?
Tank:
No one’s ever made the first jump.
Mouse:
I know, I know. But what if he does?
Apoc:
He won’t.
Mouse:
Come on.
Trinity:
Come on.
Neo: [''He jumps only to fall to the street landing softly'']
All right, no problem. Free my mind. Free my mind. All right.
Mouse:
Wha- what does that mean?
Switch:
It doesn’t mean anything.
Cypher:
Everybody falls the first time. Right, Trin'?
Neo: [''unplugged; wipes blood from mouth'']
I thought it wasn’t real.
Morpheus:
Your mind makes it real.
Neo:
If you’re killed in the Matrix, you die here?
Morpheus:
The body cannot live without the mind.
