HighIy contagious.

And the smaIIest seed

of an idea can grow.

It can grow to define...

...or destroy you.

MAL:

The smaIIest idea. such as:

''Your worId is not reaI.''

DimpIe IittIe thought

that changes everything.

Do certain of your worId. Of what's reaI.

Do you think he is?

Or do you think he's as Iost as I was?

COBB:

I know what's reaI. MaI.

No creeping doubts?

Not feeIing persecuted. Dom?

Chased around the gIobe...

...by anonymous corporations

and poIice forces...

...the way the projections

persecute the dreamer?

Admit it.

You don't beIieve in one reaIity anymore.

Do choose.

Choose to be here.

Choose me.

[COUGHD]

You know what I have to do.

I have to get back to our chiIdren

because you Ieft them.

Because you Ieft us.

-You're wrong.

COBB:
I'm not wrong.

You're confused.

Our chiIdren are here.

And you'd Iike to see their faces again.

wouIdn't you?

Yes. but I'm gonna see them

up above. MaI.

[GUNFIRE]

[BEEPD]

[FOOTDTEPD APPROACHING]

[DAITO COUGHING]

Up above?

Listen to yourseIf.

These are our chiIdren.

Watch.

James? PhiIIipa?

Don't do this. MaI. PIease.

Those aren't my chiIdren.

You keep teIIing yourseIf that.

but you don't beIieve it.

-No. I know it.

-What if you're wrong?

What if I'm what's reaI?

You keep teIIing yourseIf what you know.

But what do you beIieve?

What do you feeI?

GuiIt.

I feeI guiIt. MaI.

And no matter what I do.

no matter how hopeIess I am...

...no matter how confused.

that guiIt is aIways there...

...reminding me of the truth.

What truth?

That the idea that caused you to question

your reaIity came from me.

You pIanted the idea in my mind?

What is she taIking about?

The reason I knew inception was possibIe

was because I did it to her first.

-I did it to my own wife.

-Why?

We were Iost in here.

l knew we needed to escape,

but she wouldn't accept it.

She had locked something away,

something deep inside.

A truth that she had once known,

but chose to forget.

And she couIdn't break free.

So l decided to search for it.

l went deep into the recess of her mind

and found that secret place.

And l broke in...

...and l planted an idea.

A simple little idea

that would change everything.

That her world wasn't real.

That death was the onIy escape.

You're waiting for a train.

[METAL GROANING]

A train that'II take you far away.

You know where you hope

this train wiII take you...

...but you can't know for sure.

Yet it doesn't matter.

-Now. teII me why!

-Because you'II be together!

COBB:
But l never knew that that idea

would grow in her mind like a cancer...

...that even after she woke....

That even after

you came back to reaIity...

...that you'd continue to beIieve

your worId wasn't reaI.

That death was the onIy escape.

MaI. no! Jesus!

-You infected my mind.

-I was trying to save you.

You betrayed me.

But you can make amends.

You can stiII keep your promise.

We can stiII be together. right here...

...in the worId we buiIt together.
