The Matrix: Unscrambled

Chapter One: Shiny Green Writing

[as the title flashes by on the screen, we go diving down through scrolling Matrix code. We come out in a small room where two albino Twins sit]

Twin One: We are not in this movie.

Twin Two: We are getting aggravated.

Twin One: [rolls eyes] Excuse my brother. He is – I believe the term is - an idiot. He loves his dialogue, and never says anything else.

Twin Two: Can we move along?

Twin One: Yes, we can. Anyway, we are not in this movie. The author thinks we should have been. So don't be surprised is we show up from time to time.

[a door opens and the Wachowski bros enter. They are dressed in identical suits and their hair has turned into dreadlocks]

Wachowski One: The reason we didn't put in the movie is that…well…you're sorta…dead.

Wachowski Two: Yeah.

Twin One: We owe you for that.

Twin Two: Just like new.

Twin One: I'd accept a small part in exchange for killing my brother here.

Wachowski One: Can you kill mine, too?

Twin One: Sure.

Twin Two: We are getting aggravated.

[Twin One takes out a dagger and stabs twin two in the stomach. the dagger changes to code and we zoom in on it. we briefly flash by a naked Smith and then exit the view through the Blammer's Matrix screens]

INT. The Blammer, main deck.

[Morphbus stands looking over the shoulder of the Blammer's operator, OK. Behind them stands Rolaid, the captain, man with long, white dreadlocks and an obviously make-up treated face. He wears Zion clothing]

OK: Damn, they aren't in here.

Morphbus: Who isn't?

OK: Dobbie and Boast, sir.

Morphbus: Ah, shit! Where's my bitch?

Rolaid: That's who we're looking for now, Morphbus. Calm down. Search every pipe, every hole, every crack we know.

OK: Um…

Morphbus: Um…

Rolaid: Not in that way, you perverts. God, why did we…I mean, why did I get stuck with you idiots?

INT. Blammer infirmary.

Baggie: I thought you could use something to eat. [hands Finite a hamburger]

Finite: Thanks. [bites hamburger and hits teeth on a hard object] What the hell? [extracts bullet from hamburger]

Baggie: Shit.

Finite: Someone must have accidentally put a bullet in my food.

Baggie: [sighs in relief]

Finite: Any change?

Baggie: Nope.

Finite: Good.

INT. The Blammer, main deck.

Morphbus: Run another search through the Matrix!

OK: For what?

Morphbus: For Peo!

OK: How can he be in the Matrix, sir?

Morphbus: Bitch! If you don't follow my orders, I kill you!

OK: Fine. God.

Finite [VO]: What?

OK: The big bubkis.

Morphbus: What the hell does that mean?

INT. Blammer infirmary.

Baggie: This is what bothers me.

Finite [coming over and bending down]: What?

Baggie [drawing knife]: I see these patterns all the time…[stabs]

Finite [moving aside accidentally]: When?

Baggie: [falls to floor]

Finite: Baggie?

Baggie: On…someone…who's…jacked…in…

INT. The Blammer, main deck.

Clink: Hey, you got a call!

Morphbus: I thought you were dead!

Clink: Nope.

Caller [muffled voice]: I'm looking for Amanda Huginkiss.

Morpheus: Is there Amanda Huginkiss on this ship?

Clink: Yes. [comes forward and wraps his arms around Morpheus]

[Morpheus looks disgusted, then reaches up and grabs a heavy metal object, bringing it down on the head of Clink. A high-pitched Asian laugh comes from the phone]

EXT. Matrix streets.

Bearaph: I bring word from the Oracle. You must come at once.

Morpheus: Heh…come…hee hee.

Bearaph: [slams down phone. it bounces off the holder and hits him in the forehead. he falls to the ground, unconscious]

INT. Mobil Avenue train station.

[Peo lays on the ground in his suit outfit. He opens his eyes to see a young girl standing above him]

Sorry: You're awake!

Peo: Where am I?

Sorry: This is the train station.

Peo: This isn't the Matrix?

Sorry: Don't you ever read the script? No, the Matrix is where the train goes. Where we're going. But you cannot come. He won't let you.

Peo: Who?

Sorry: The Rainman. I don't like him, but my papa says we have to do what he says or he will leave us here for ever and ever.
