[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Remember the event in the original Matrix where Neo jumps into an agent and the agent explodes? This time he does about the same. Instead of doing that himself he allows Smith to get around him.

Something vaguely similar happens in the Discworld novel Carpe Jugulum, which had lots of narrative and dialogue to explain matters. It's been speculated that when Smith assimilated Neo, something from the Machine Eye of Sauron got in past Smith's defenses, kinda like that software nasty they were going to send back with Hugh in NexGen's [iost_uid0]I, Borg[/iost_uid0].

Wow, Discworld, Star Trek and Lord of the Rings all referenced in one paragraph.[/colorost_uid0]
