• Keymaker: There's a building. Inside this building there's a level where no elevator can go, and no stair can reach. This level is filled with doors. These doors lead to many places, hidden places, but one door is special. One door leads to the Source. This building is protected by a very secure system. Every alarm triggers the bomb.
• Vector: Bomb? Did he say bomb?
• Keymaker: But like all systems it has a weakness. The system is based on the rules of a building. One system built on another.
• Morpheus: Electricity.
• Keymaker: If one fails, so must the other.
• Niobe: No electricity, no alarms.
• Ghost: But you'd have to take out a whole city block to kill the power to a building like that.
• Keymaker: Not one, 27.
• Vector: 27 blocks?
• Keymaker: There is a power station. it must be destroyed.
• Niobe: There must be some kind of failsafe.
• Keymaker: Yes, there is an emergency system. The core network of the grid must be accessed. The emergency system must be deactivated.
• Soren: Then what do you need us for? Neo could take 'em both out easier than we could.
• Keymaker: There's no time.
• Niobe: Why?
• Keymaker: Once the door is unprotected, the connection will be severed. But another connection must first be made.
• Ghost: How long will that take?
• Keymaker: Exactly 314 seconds.
• Soren: Just over 5 minutes.
• Keymaker: That is the length and breadth of the window. Only The One can open the door, and only during that window can the door be opened.
• Niobe: How do you know all this?
• Keymaker: I know because I must know. It's my purpose. It's the reason I'm here. Same reason we're all here.
