Decoded: The Making of 'The Matrix Reloaded' Page #4

---

I give you Morpheus.

Zion! Hear me!

It is true what many of you have heard.

The machines have gathered

an army, and as I speak...

...that army is drawing nearer

to our home.

Believe me when I say we have

a difficult time ahead of us.

But if we are to be prepared for it,

we must first shed our fear of it.

I stand here before you now

truthfully unafraid.

Why?

Because I believe something you do not?

No!

I stand here without fear

because I remember.

I remember that I am here not because

of the path that lies before me...

...but because of the path

that lies behind me.

I remember that for 100 years

we have fought these machines.

I remember that for 100 years

they have sent their armies to destroy us.

And after a century of war,

I remember that which matters most:

We are still here!

Tonight...

...let us send a message to that army.

Tonight, let us shake this cave.

Tonight, let us tremble these halls...

...of earth, steel and stone.

Let us be heard from red core

to black sky.

Tonight, let us make them remember:

This is Zion and we are not afraid!

I remember.

I remember you used to dance.

I remember you were pretty good.

There are some things in this world,

Captain Niobe...

...that will never change.

Niobe!

Some things do change.

Excuse me.

-I missed you.

-I can tell.

I was thinking, everyone is here.

Follow me.

Neo, what is it?

What's wrong?

It's okay, you can tell me.

Trinity...

Don't be afraid.

I can't lose you.

You're not gonna lose me.

You feel this?

I'm never letting go.

Good night, Zion.

Sweet dreams.

-You all right?

-I'll make it.

Did you see that agent?

I've never seen anything like that.

It doesn't matter.

All that matters is this.

You first.

-Oh, God.

-"Smith" will suffice.

-Thank you.

-My pleasure.

-Care for some company?

-Councillor Hamann.

I don't want to intrude

if you'd prefer to be alone.

-No, I could probably use some company.

-Good.

So could I.

It's nice tonight.

Very calm.

It feels like everyone is sleeping

very peacefully.

Not everyone.

I hate sleeping.

I never sleep more than a few hours.

I figure I slept the first 11 years

of my life, now I'm making up for it.

-What about you?

-I just haven't been able to sleep much.

-It's a good sign.

-Of what?

That you are in fact still human.

Have you ever been

to the engineering level?

I love to walk there at night.

It's quite amazing.

-Would you like to see it?

-Sure.

Almost no one comes down here.

Unless, of course, there's a problem.

That's how it is with people. Nobody

cares how it works as long as it works.

I like it down here.

I like to be reminded this city survives
