Neo and Bane lie unconscious in the medical bay of the ship Hammer. Meanwhile, Neo finds his digital self-trapped in a virtual subway station – named, “Mobil Ave”, “mobile”, being an anagram for “limbo” – a transition zone between the Matrix and the Machine City. In that subway station, he meets a “family” of programs, including a girl named Sati, whose father tells Neo the subway is controlled by the Trainman, an exiled program loyal to the Merovingian. When Neo tries to board a train with the family, the Trainman refuses and overpowers him.
