Mnemonic


[ni-] Neo is in the [3] basement of the [-(e)ng] English manor where he finds a strange 宀 dollhouse next to a dusty statue. He opens it up and out comes a 扌 finger that jumps and 擰 twists itself into his 心 heart. Neo 擰 twists it out and throws it onto a 皿 plate then nails it down with a 丁 spike so it doesn't try 擰 to twist again into his 心 heart. It seems to be one of Agent Smith's 扌 fingers.
