[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0](a) it seems odd to follow that with a Spoon Boy scene[/quoteost_uid0]

I actually think it works, all things considered. Look at them together:

[bost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] So what did the Oracle tell you?
[bost_uid0]Morpheus:[/bost_uid0] She told me I'm the Super Ohm. 'Cause, you see, when you scramble it all up -- well, anyway, I've got high hopes for you.
[bost_uid0]Boy:[/bost_uid0] She told me there is no spoon.
[bost_uid0]Trinity:[/bost_uid0] She said that I--
[bost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] Shush, Trin. Can't you see the boy's telling me about his spoon?

[bost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] So what's the deal with the spoon?
[bost_uid0]Boy:[/bost_uid0] There is no spoon.
[bost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] Are there forks?
[bost_uid0]Boy:[/bost_uid0] Of course. The forks surround us and penetrate us.
They bind the galaxy together. Use the forks, Neo.

I think it works.

[quoteost_uid0](b) it also seems odd for Neo to want to listen to the boy but not the others.[/quoteost_uid0]

That would be the point, I believe. [/colorost_uid0]
