"ENCOM CEO and video game icon Kevin Flynn has disappeared." "He was best known for designing Tron and Space Paranoids, the two bestselling video games in history." "Flynn took ownership of ENCOM in 1982 as the company skyrocketed to the top of the tech industry." "But things changed in 1985 with the untimely death of Flynn's wife, the mother of his young son, Sam." "Recently, ENCOM board members have been troubled by reports of Flynn's erratic, even obsessive, behavior." "With Flynn missing, the company is now in chaos." "This afternoon, ENCOM's board moved to seize control from Flynn's partner, Alan Bradley, vowing to return the company to profitability." "Loyal to the end, Bradley maintains his belief that Flynn is not missing and is instead pursuing his dream of" ""a digital frontier to reshape the human condition."" "KEVIN:" "In there is a new world." "In there is our future." "ln there is our destiny." "(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)" "TV:" "Even Flynn's most ardent supporters are now acknowledging a difficult truth." "Kevin Flynn may have simply run away." "And while Flynn's loyalists hope for his imminent return, there is perhaps no one who wishes it to happen more than young Sam Flynn, now in the care of his grandparents, and heir to an empire in turmoil." "SAM:" "He's coming." "He promised." "Sam, you have to eat." "Let go of me!" "Sam?"

"(APPLAUSE)" "At midnight the 1 2th version of our flagship operating system will hit the shelves around the world." "I'm sure it comes as no surprise whom we have to thank." "The head of our software design team, a man whose father's own notable history with ENCOM helped make this company what it is today." "Edward Dillinger." "Well done." "Well done." "And this year, simultaneous to the release of ENCOM OS-1 2, we will be making our debut on Tokyo's Nikkei Index." "ENCOM's stock will now trade around the world 24/7." "(WHOOPING)" "Huh?" "Oh, yes."

"Do I really look like I'm ready to run a Fortune 500 company?" "No." "And truthfully, the company is pretty happy with where you are, too." "I bet." "That way they can keep doing whatever they want." "You know, I guess what I find curious is the crazy charities, the annual prank on the company." "You have an interesting way of being disinterested, Sam." "Why are you here, Alan?" "I was paged last night." "Oh, man, still rocking the pager?" "(LAUGHS) Good for you." "Yeah, your dad once told me I had to sleep with it, and I still do." "Page came from your dad's office at the arcade." "So?" "So?" "That number's been disconnected for 20 years." "Sam, two nights before he disappeared, he came to my house." ""I've cracked it," he kept saying." "He was talking about genetic algorithms, quantum teleportation."

"He's either dead or chilling in Costa Rica." "Probably both." "Look, I'm sorry." "I'm tired, and I smell like jail." "Let's just reconvene in another couple of years, huh?" "What do you say?" "Here." "These are the keys to the arcade." "I haven't gone over there yet." "I thought you should be the one." "Alan, you're acting like I'm gonna find him sitting there working."

"And my miracle..." "Clu saw the isos as an imperfection." "So he destroyed them." "(DISTANT SCREAMING)" "The Purge." "He killed them all?" "It was genocide." "I tried to get back but I couldn't get to the portal." "It uses massive power and it can't stay open forever." "And like a safe, it... lt can only be opened from the outside." "It closed on me, Sam." "That's why I never came home." "SAM:" "So the portal, it activated when I came in." "So it's open now." "KEVIN:" "Not for long." "Only one millicycle, about eight hours." "So we go now." "Go home." "We make a run for it." "We get you out of here." "Don't rush." "What do you mean?" "The portal's gonna close." "What?" "What is it?" "The moment Flynn is on the Grid, Clu will stop at nothing to obtain his disk." "My disk is everything, Sam." "It's the master key." "The golden ticket." "The way out." "And not just for me."

"Game over." "The guy doesn't dig imperfection." "What's more imperfect than our world?" "I can't let that happen." "I won't." "So what do we do?" "Nothing?" "It's amazing how productive doing nothing can be." "Clu's planning something." "We've known that for a while." "Programs have been disappearing." "There's unrest out there, even revolution." "If we sit tight, Clu might be brought down from the inside." "SAM:" "If the portal is closing, we can't sit around." "We have to move now." "Tell me, what brought you here, to the Grid?" "Alan got your page." "I didn't send any page." "It was Clu." "Clu sent that page." "That's why you're here." "This is all his design." "He wanted a new piece on the board to change the game!" "With you, he got more than he ever dreamed." "This is precisely what he wants." "Us together heading for the portal." "It's his game now." "The only way to win is not to play." "Well, that's a hell of a way to live." "But it is a way." "We can go home." "Don't you want that?" "Sometimes life has a way of moving you past things like wants and hopes." "That's great, Dad." "Keep telling yourself that." "Good night, Sam." "How can he be so afraid of his own creation?" "I mean, he built Clu." "Why doesn't he just end him?" "He could, but it would require reintegration." "Yeah, all right." "Flynn would never survive the event." "It would mean the end of them both." "(SIGHS) If he refuses to save himself, then I will." "How?" "I'm going through the portal." "Clu wants Flynn's disk, not mine." "I'm going to find Alan and we'll figure this thing out from the other side." "This may be Clu's game here, but in my world, he's gone in one keystroke." "But I can't do anything unless I get to the portal." "And my guts tell me that you don't want to be stuck in this place for eternity either." "I really think you should consider your father's wisdom." "I have." "(KNOCKING AT DOOR)" "There's someone I once knew, a program named Zuse who fought alongside the ISOs."

"Everything I ever worked for." ""A digital frontier to reshape the human condition."" "SAM:" "I always thought that was just a plug line." "KEVIN:" "In our world, she could change everything." "Yeah." "(LAUGHS) Check that out." "She risked herself for me." "Some things are worth the risk." "KEVIN:" "Look at this." "Now, that is impressive if I do say so myself." "Huh?" "Come on, it's gonna take a while for her system to reboot." "Now it's time for you to tell me a story." "CLU:" "The boy and Flynn are gone." "CASTOR:" "I presume, Your Excellency, they perished in the elevator." "You presume?" "Find them." "SAM:" "Icecaps are melting, war in the Middle East," "Lakers/Celtics back at it." "I don't know." "Rich are getting richer, poor are getting poorer." "Cell phones, online dating, Wi-Fi." "KEVIN:" "What's Wi-Fi?" "Wireless interlinking." "Of digital devices?" "Yeah." "Hmm." "I thought of that in '85." "(LAUGHS)" "Mom and Dad are..." "I assume that..." "Yeah." "Oh." "Mac when I was 1 2 and Gram five years later." "You remember that night when you didn't come home?" "Well..." "You said..." "I said I'd show you the Grid." "You should have seen this place back then." "I couldn't wait to show it to you." "Could not wait." "SAM:" "Must have been something before Clu screwed it up." "No, no, he..." "He's me." "I screwed it up." "Chasing after perfection." "Chasing after what was right in front of me." "Right in front of me." "Look what you've accomplished." "It's incredible." "Sam," "I'd have given it all up for one more day with you." "(SIGHS)" "Hey." "Remember your old Ducati?" "You kidding?" "Not a day goes by I don't think about that bike." "Yeah, well, I'm fixing her up." "You busted my bike?" "Twenty years in the shed, no tarp." "I mean, she needed a little love." "(LAUGHS)" "How does she run?" "Well, when I'm done, better than ever." "Well, man, I'd like to see that." "You will." "Here." "She's rebooting." "Give her this." "The old man's gonna knock on the sky, listen to the sound." "CASTOR:" "When Flynn entered the space, ah, everything changed." "I've never seen anything quite like it." "The awe was palpable." "Was it?" "I presume our understanding is still valid?" "Control of the city?" "A sizeable request, I know." "But seemingly fitting compensation." "Don't you think?" "How long have you been searching for this, Clu?" "About 1 ,000 cycles." "No?" "Just imagine the secrets it holds." "(LAUGHS)" "The master key to any and all riddles of the Grid, Grid, Grid, Grid..." "But there's something else, too." "Isn't there?" "I've heard the chatter about this private initiative." "I realize that our alliance is, at times, uneasy." "But always necessary." "You know you need me right where I am." "Clu?" "Of course you're right." "Enjoy the drink." "(BEEPING)" "(CLU LAUGHS)" "End of line, man." "(BEEPING)" "(GASPS)" "Hey." "It's okay." "We're safe for now." "We're heading east towards the portal." "Clu has the disk." "Once I get out, I can shut him down." "I should never have sent you to Zuse." "It was a mistake." "It's okay." "I've made a few myself." "Where is he?" "SAM:" "I think he's knocking on the sky." "QUORRA:" "And listening to the sound." "Yeah." "How did you find him?" "It's okay." "I know." "QUORRA:" "It was during the Purge." "Clu was relentless." "The Black Guard were executing ISOs in the streets." "Everyone I knew disappeared." "Then they came for me." "So I ran." "A sympathetic program smuggled me out of the city." "But soon they had me surrounded." "I prepared for the end." "And just as everything was going dark," "I felt a hand on my shoulder." "And when I opened my eyes, standing above me was the Creator." "Your father." "He saved me." "I guess you could say I'm a rescue." "SAM:" "Hell of a view." "QUORRA:" "It used to let us know that Flynn was here." "It became the symbol of something bigger, something better than this world." "I've never been this close before." "It's how I imagine a sunrise to be." "Ah, trust me." "There's no comparison." "What's it like?" "The sun?" "Yeah." "Man... (SIGHS)" "I've never had to describe it before." "Warm." "Radiant." "Beautiful." "(QUORRA LAUGHS)" "(RUMBLING)" "Get below!" "Move!" "This isn't supposed to be here." "What happened?" "A new course." "What is this?" "Clu can't create programs." "He can only destroy or repurpose them." "Repurpose them for what?" "COMPUTER:" "battalion 6, report to Staging Area Alpha." "He's building an army." "Let's go." "COMPUTER:" "All high-level functions, report immediately to combat stations." "Goodbye." "Quorra!" "What's she doing?" "Removing herself from the equation." "Tron." "KEVIN:" "He's alive." "COMPUTER:" "Throne ship is approaching." "We can't just let her go." "No, Sam, there's another way." "Throne ship is approaching." "JARVIS:" "Well done, sir." "JARVIS:" "I've never seen anything like it." "Humbly, sir, I know you have greater designs than any of us understand." "What does it do?" "She's gonna wind up like one of them." "Keep moving, Sam." "(PROGRAMS CHANT)" "You are a very rare bird, aren't you, now?" "Where's your disk?" "Where is he?" "It must have been so lonely out there." "How tragic to be the only one." "I've seen what users are capable of, Clu." "You don't belong with them." "I have something very special in mind for you." "Take her upstairs." "And find them." "You'll have to excuse me." "You arrived just as I was preparing a little toast." "(PROGRAMS CHANT)" "Greetings, programs!" "(PROGRAMS CHEER)" "Together we have achieved a great many things." "We have created a vast, complex system." "We've maintained it." "We've improved it." "We have rid it of its imperfection." "Not to mention rid it of the false deity who sought to enslave us." "Kevin Flynn!" "Where are you now?" "(PROGRAMS BOO)" "(LAUGHS)" "My fellow programs, let there be no doubt that our world is a cage no more." "For at this moment, the key to the next frontier is finally in our possession!" "(PROGRAMS CHEER)" "Your disk." "CLU:" "And unlike our selfish Creator, who reserved the privilege of our world only for himself," "I will make their world open and available to all of us!" "(PROGRAMS CHEER)" "Yes!" "To all of us!" "SAM:" "He's taking all of this with him." "He's figured out how to do it." "CLU:" "And whatever we find there, there our system will grow!" "There our system will blossom!" "Do this." "Prove yourselves." "Prove yourselves to me!" "Be loyal to me!" "And I will never betray you!" "(PROGRAMS CHEER)" "Dad, we have to get your disk." "We gotta get to the portal." "You shut them down outside." "Even if I make it, you won't last in here, nor will Quorra." "We'll be all right." "Come on." "I'm not going home without you." "Sam..." "The same team." "Remember?" "I was afraid you were gonna say that." "Meet me on the flight deck in five and get us some wheels." "Wheels?" "What's your plan?" "I'm a user." "I'll improvise." "CLU:" "Maximize efficiency." "Rid the new system of its imperfection!" "My vision is clear, fellow programs." "Out there is a new world!" "Out there is our victory!" "(PROGRAMS CHEER)" "Out there is our destiny." "(GRUNTS)" "(YELLS)" "(BEEPING)" "SENTRY:" "ldentify yourself, program." "I'm not a program." "My name is Sam Flynn." "(FAINT YELL)" "(PROGRAMS CHANT)" "ldentify yourself." "I'm taking this vehicle." "You are not authorized." "Right away, sir." "Watch your step, please, as you board the aircraft." "(MUFFLED SHOUTING)" "(SHRIEKING)" "Long live the users." "COMPUTER:" "Master key disengaged." "Master key disengaged." "I came with a girl, a program." "Where is she?" "Sam!" "Go!" "Why are you here?" "We gotta get to the flight deck." "Clu will be here any minute." "We'll never make it." "Come on." "Come on, kiddo." "Radical, man." "Hurry!" "Made it." "Try and hold on to this." "You're gonna need it." "You got this, Quorra." "It's all in the wrist." "COMPUTER:" "Light fighter 5." "Unauthorized launch." "Death to the user!" "Head towards the light, Quorra." "Where did you learn that move?" "ENCOM Tower." "Couple of nights ago." "ENCOM Tower." "Huh." "Light jets." "Here they come." "Sam, take the turret." "Huh?" "Man, I'm all over this." "Yeah!" "Yeah!" "One down, five to go!" "Nice." "We gotta split them up!" "(SCREAMS)" "Come on." "Have a nice swim!" "(LAUGHS)" "SAM:" "We gotta get behind them!" "Whoo!" "I don't think this is a good idea." "You're probably right." "He's gaining on us!" "(ENGINE STOPS)" "(LAUGHS)" "Yes!" "It's jammed." "Tron." "What have you become?" "Oh, come on." "TRON:" "Flynn, go!" "CLU:" "Rinzler!" "Take the shot!" "Finish the game!" "Roll!" "TRON:" "I fight for the users." "(SCREAMS)" "That's it." "It's over." "It's over!" "(LAUGHS)" "QUORRA:" "Whoo!" "Quorra, there's something I need you to do." "Let's get you home, Dad." "There it is." "Take her down." "Hang on." "This could be rough." "This is mine." "I had a feeling you'd be here!" "(LAUGHS) The cycles haven't been kind, have they?" "Oh, you don't look so bad." "I did everything." "Everything you ever asked." "I know you did." "CLU:" "I executed the plan!" "As you saw it." "You..." "You promised that we would change the world together." "You broke your promise." "I know." "I understand that now." "I took this system to its maximum potential." "I created the perfect system!" "The thing about perfection is that it's unknowable." "It's impossible but it's also right in front of us all the time." "You wouldn't know that because I didn't when I created you." "I'm sorry, Clu." "I'm sorry." "(YELLS)" "Go." "Clu!" "Remember what you came for." "Dad!" "CLU:" "You knew I'd beat you." "And still you did all this?" "For him." "No." "No!" "Why?" "He's my son." "Go!" "Dad!" "Sam!" "It's time!" "No!" "Sam, it's what he wants." "I'm not leaving you!" "Take her!" "Yes!" "Goodbye, kiddo." "(GROANS)" "No!" "SAM:" "Al?" "ALAN:" "You paged me?" "Yeah." "I need you at ENCOM at 8:00 a.m." "What about the board?" "You're chairman now." "I'm taking the company back, Alan." "Oh, and..." "You were right." "About what?" "About everything." "QUORRA:" "What's next, Sam?" "I guess we're supposed to change the world." "Come on." "I wanna show you something."
