CUT TO. INT-CONTROL ROOM, REAL WORLD: Everyone wakes up. Turkish is right there to greet Sarah. Sarah leans up.

TURKISH

So, how'd it go?

SARAH

It was cryptic at best.

HEMMINGTON

That's like her, you have to figure it all out for yourself.

CUT TO. INT-ORACLE'S KITCHEN, THE MATRIX: The Oracle is standing, staring out the window. Seraph is standing watching her. The Oracle knowa he is doing this and turns to him.

ORACLE

Seraph, its okay, he's not coming back.

SERAPH

I know, but you have been a little different since he and Neo fought.

ORACLE

Smith is destroyed. As far as I can tell, he's never coming back.

INT-KITCHEN: The Oracle's attention is diverted for a moment. She butts out her cigarette and moves to Seraph.

ORACLE

The time has come Seraph.

SERAPH

They're here.

ORACLE

Go out the window, wait in the alley. You'll know when to make the call.

SERAPH

If I could just stay...

ORACLE

No Seraph. They're here for a reason. This is not coincidence. This is purpose.

CUT TO. INT-STAIRWELL: Six men from Club Hell are coming up the stairs. They are followed by a very tall man with long grey hair and poor clothes. It is the same man Sarah saw on the subway. This is the TRAINMAN.

TRAINMAN

Bring her down in one piece. The deal was for her to be alive.

CUT TO. INT-APARTMENT: The cronies burst through the door with guns drawn. They enter the place trashing as much of it as they can. The Trainman is right behind them. He looks into the living room.

CUT TO. INT-LIVING ROOM: The Oracle is sitting on the couch lighting up another cigarette. The Trainman stands towering over her.

TRAINMAN

The Merovingian would like to have a few words with you now.

ORACLE

No he doesn't.

TRAINMAN

You're right, he doesn't. He wants to see you locked away for ever.

ORACLE

See, you got yoour message across just fine without using euphemisms.

TRAINMAN

Let's go.

INT-LIVING ROOM: The Oracle takes her time in finishing her cigarette. The Merovingian's cronies enter the room. The Oracle finishes an stands up. She smiles.

ORACLE

Well, let's not keep the fates waiting.
