Here’s “The Matrix” movie I want to see: A woman is lying on the beach, enjoying the sunset, and watching her grandkids play in the surf. Her husband, a world famous cardiologist, just retired to spend more time with her. The novel she has spent so long writing was finally published, and is climbing up the top ten list. Their daughter is on the verge of inventing a vaccine for cancer.

Suddenly, she wakes up, tubes in her body, with Neo telling her it will be okay. She discovers her life never existed, she never had a husband,  kids, or grandchildren, and she’s twenty years old, naked and freaked out.

They woke her up by mistake.

Now what?

It’s the end of the first Matrix movie. The Matrix, as an entity, is waking up people at random, turning them loose on the Resistance, and it becomes clear that humans don’t have the resources to take in thousands of refugees, most of whom don’t want to be there.

The Matrix offers to stop releasing Sleepers if the Resistance stops hacking into the mainframe.

Now what?
