Epilogue

As the Zion crews and their ships finished repairs, Neo, Morpheus, Niobe returned from the Matrix program. "Thank you, Captains, for your assistance," Picard said. The captains were returned to the Earth of the year 2199. Many captains remained with the Councilors of Zion to continue repairs to Zion and to rebuild other cities lost to the Machines. Eventually, everyone was free of the Matrix. Everyone!
The Matrix is real, and in it, you, too, can Live Long and Prosper!
