-Is everything in place?

- You weren 't supposed to relieve me.

I know, but I felt like taking a shift.

You like him, don 't you?

You like watching him.

-Don 't be ridiculous.

- We 're gonna kill him. You understand?

Morpheus believes he is the One.

-Do you?

-It doesn 't matter what I believe.

You don 't, do you?

-Did you hear that?

-Hear what?

Are you sure this line is clean?

Yeah, of course I'm sure.

I better go.

-Freeze! Police!

-Hands on your head!

Do it! Do it now!

Lieutenant.

Oh, sh*t.

Lieutenant, you were given

specific orders.

I'm just doing my job.

You give me that "juris-my-dick-tion"

crap, you can cram it up your ass.

The orders were for your protection.

I think we can handle one little girl.

I sent two units!

They're bringing her down now!

No, Lieutenant, your men

are already dead.

Sh*t.

Morpheus, the line was traced.

I don't know how.

I know. They cut the hard line.

There 's no time.

Get to another exit.

-Are there any agents?

- Yes.

Goddamn it.

You have to focus, Trinity.

There 's a phone at Wells and Lake.

You can make it.

-All right.

-Go.

That's impossible.

Get up, T rinity.

Just get up.

Get up.

She got out.

It doesn't matter.

The informant is real.

We have the name of their next target.

The name is Neo.

We'll need a search running.

It has already begun.

What?

What the hell?

"Follow the white rabbit. "

Who is it?

It's Choi.

You're two hours late.

I know. It's her fault.

You got the money?

Two grand.

Hold on.

Hallelujah.

You're my savior.

My own personal Jesus Christ.

You get caught using that....

I know. This never happened.

You don't exist.

-Right.

-Something wrong, man?

You look a little whiter than usual.

My computer, it....

Ever have that feeling where you're

not sure if you're awake or dreaming?

All the time.

It's called mescaline.

It's the only way to fly.

It just sounds like you

need to unplug.

Get some R and R?

What do you think, Dujour?

Should we take him with us?

Definitely.

No, I can't. I have work tomorrow.

Come on.

It'll be fun. I promise.

Yeah.

Sure. I'll go.

Hello, Neo.

-How do you know that name?

-I know a lot about you.

-Who are you?

-My name is Trinity.

Trinity.

The Trinity?

That cracked the lRS D-base?

That was a long time ago.

-Jesus.

-What?

I just thought...

...you were a guy.

Most guys do.

That was you on my computer.

How did you do that?

Right now, all I can tell you...

...is that you're in danger.

-I brought you here to warn you.

-Of what?

They're watching you, Neo.

-Who is?

-Please just listen.

I know why you're here, Neo.

I know what you've been doing.

I know why you hardly sleep...

...why you live alone and why,

night after night...

...you sit at your computer.

You're looking for him.

I know, because I was once

looking for the same thing.

And when he found me...

...he told me I wasn't really

looking for him...

...I was looking for an answer.

It's the question that drives us, Neo.

It's the question

that brought you here.

You know the question...

...just as I did.

What is the Matrix?

The answer is out there, Neo.

It's looking for you.

And it will find you...

...if you want it to.

Sh*t.

Sh*t, sh*t.

You have a problem with authority,

Mr. Anderson.

You believe that you are special,

that the rules do not apply to you.

Obviously, you are mistaken.

This is one of the top

software companies in the world...

...because employees understand

they are part of a whole.

Thus, if an employee has a problem,

the company has a problem.

The time has come to make

a choice, Mr. Anderson.

Either you choose to be at your desk

on time from this day forth...

...or you choose to find another job.

Do I make myself clear?

Yes, Mr. Rhineheart.

Perfectly clear.

Thomas Anderson?

Yeah, that's me.

Great.

Have a nice day.

Hello, Neo. Do you know who this is?

-Morpheus.

- Yes.

I've been looking for you.

I don 't know if you 're ready to see

what I want to show you.

But unfortunately, you and I

have run out of time.

They're coming for you, and I don 't know

what they're going to do.

Who's coming for me?

Stand up and see for yourself.

-What? Right now?

- Yes.

Now.

Do it slowly.

The elevator.

Oh, sh*t!

What do they want?

I don 't know. If you don 't want

to find out, get out of there.

How?

I can guide you,

but you must do exactly as I say.

The cubicle across from you is empty.

-But what if they--

-Go. Now.

Stay here for just a moment.

When I tell you,

go to the end of the row...

... to the office

at the end of the hall.

Stay as low as you can.

Go. Now.

Good. Now, outside

there is a scaffold.

-How do you know this?

- We don 't have time.

To your left there 's a window.

Go to it.

Open it.

Take the scaffold to the roof.

No way! No way!

This is crazy!

There are two ways

out of this building.

One is that scaffold.

The other is in their custody.

You take a chance either way.

I leave it to you.

This is insane!

Why is this happening to me?

What'd I do?

I' m nobody.

I didn't do anything.

I' m gonna die.

Sh*t!

Oh, sh*t!

I can't do this.

Sh*t.

As you can see, we've had our eye

on you for some time now, Mr. Anderson.

It seems that you've been living...

...two lives.

In one life,

you're Thomas A. Anderson...

...program writer for

a respectable software company.

You have a social security number.

You pay your taxes.

And you...

...help your landlady

carry out her garbage.

The other life is lived in computers...

...where you go by

the hacker alias "Neo"...

...and are guilty of virtually every

computer crime we have a law for.

One of these lives...

...has a future.

And one of them does not.

I'm going to be as forthcoming

as I can be, Mr. Anderson.

You're here...

...because we need your help.

We know that you've been contacted

by a certain...

...individual.

A man who calls himself "Morpheus. "

Whatever you think you know

about this man is irrelevant.

He is considered by many authorities...

...to be the most dangerous man alive.

My colleagues...

...believe that I am wasting

my time with you.

But I believe you wish

to do the right thing.

We're willing to wipe the slate clean...

...give you a fresh start.

All we're asking in return

is your cooperation...

...in bringing

a known terrorist to justice.

Yeah.

That sounds like a really good deal.

But I got a better one.

How about...

...I give you the finger...

...and you give me my phone call.

Mr. Anderson...

...you disappoint me.

You can't scare me

with this gestapo crap.

I know my rights.

I want my phone call.

Tell me, Mr. Anderson...

...what good is a phone call...

...if you're unable to speak?

You're going to help us,

Mr. Anderson...

...whether you want to or not.

This line is tapped,

so I must be brief.

They got to you first, but they've

underestimated how important you are.

If they knew what I know...

... you would probably be dead.

What are you talking about?
