Introduction to the Real World
Tank Morning, did you sleep? You will tonight, I guarantee it. I’m Tank, I’ll be your operator.
[''Enters Neo's quarters''; ''Neo shakes head'']
Neo You don’t... you don’t have any...
[''Noticing Tank's lack of electrical sockets'']
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 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...
[''Nodding head'']
Tank 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?
[''Jumps into operator seat with Neo in his plug-in seat and Tank is rifling through [[w:Floppy disk|floppy discs; ''holds up floppy'']
Neo ]? I’m going to learn Jujitsu? Holy shit!
[''Reading on screen''; [w:Jujutsu|Jujitsu; ''Tank uploads program'']
Tank ]. How about some more?
[[w:Life (cereal)|Hey Mikey, I think he likes it]
Neo Hell yes!
Morpheus How is he?
[''Leaning over Tank'']
Tank Ten hours straight. He’s... a machine.
Neo I know ].
[''To Morpheus leaning over him''; [w:Kung Fun|Kung Fu]
Morpheus 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.
[''In the sparring program''; ''They fight a round''; ''Wagging fingers'']
Mouse Morpheus is fighting Neo.
[''To the Nebuchadnezzar crew in the mess''; ''They all scramble to see'']
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 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.
[''The jump program simulation is initiated Neo and Morpheus are on top of a skyscraper''; ''Morpheus jumps from the skyscraper to another skyscraper'']
Neo Whoa. Okie dokie. Free my mind.
[''Makes focus-on-the-task-gestures'']
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 All right, no problem. Free my mind. Free my mind. All right.
[''He jumps only to fall to the street landing softly'']
Mouse Wha- what does that mean?
Switch It doesn’t mean anything.
Cypher Everybody falls the first time. Right, Trin'?
Neo I thought it wasn’t real.
[''unplugged; wipes blood from mouth'']
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.
