- Right. - You can't build because if you know the maze then she knows it. Well, she'd sabotage the whole operation. Cobb, do the others know? No. No, they don't. You've gotta warn them if this is getting worse. No one said it's getting worse I need to get home. That's all I care about right now Why can't you go home? Because they think I killed her Thank you For what? For not asking whether I did I will split up my father's empire Now, this is obviously an idea that Robert himself would choose to reject which is why we need to plant it deep in his subconscious. The subconscious is motivated by emotion, right? Not reason. We need to find a way to translate this into an emotional concept. How do you translate business strategy into emotion? That's what we're here to figure out Robert's relationship with his father. ...is stressed, to say the least Can we run with that? We suggest breaking up his father's company as a "screw you" to the old man No, because I think positive emotion trumps negative emotion every time. We all yearn for reconciliation, for catharsis. We need Robert Fischer to have a positive emotional reaction to all this All right, well, try this. Um "My father accepts that I want to create for myself, not follow in his footsteps." That might work Might? We're gonna need to do a little better than "might." Thank you for your contribution, Arthur Forgive me for wanting a little specificity, Eames Specificity? Inception's not about being specific When we get inside his mind, we're gonna have to work with what we find EAMES: On the top level, we open up his relationship with his father... .and say, "I will not follow in my father's footsteps." Then the next level down, we feed him "I will create something for myself." Then, by the time we hit the bottom level we bring out the big guns. - "My father doesn�t want me to be him EAMES: Exactly. [MACHINE HISSING] Three layers down, the dreams are gonna collapse with the slightest disturbance. Sedation For sleep stable enough to create three layers of dreaming... ...we'll have to combine it with an extremely powerful sedative [MACHINE HISSING]

Paradox So a closed loop like that will help you disguise the boundaries of the dream you create. But how big do these levels have to be? It could be anything from the floor of a building to an entire city They have to be complicated enough that we can hide from the projections - A maze? - Right, a maze And the better the maze Then the longer we have before the projections catch us? Exactly My subconscious seems polite enough Ha, ha. You wait, they'll turn ugly. No one likes to feel someone else messing around in their mind. Cobb can't build anymore, can he?

Let me ask you a question You never really remember the beginning of a dream, do you? You always wind up right in the middle of what's going on I guess, yeah So how did we end up here? Well, we just came from the, uh Think about it, Ariadne. How did you get here? Where are you right now? We're dreaming? You're in the middle of the workshop, sleeping This is your first lesson in shared dreaming. Stay calm [CUP RATTLING]
