During the race, Dan speeds up, however his muscles become overloaded. He drops back and the agents realize that he is waking up. They try to catch him, but he speeds up, and wins the race with a winning time of 8.99 seconds, and he collapses. Meanwhile, in the real world, Dan wakes up but a machine shocks him and plugs him back into the Matrix. Days later, Dan is in a wheelchair in a coma-like state. Even though he is disabled in the Matrix, Dan gets up slowly muttering words about freedom, but he is overcome by the Matrix and falls down.
