Yeah, yeah. Everything's just fine Robert Fischer, heir to the Fischer Morrow energy conglomerate. COBB: What's your problem with this Mr. Fischer? That's not your concern Mr. Saito, this isn't your typical corporate espionage. You asked me for inception I do hope you understand the gravity of that request. Now, the seed that we plant in this man's mind will grow into an idea This idea will define him It may come to change Well, it may come to change everything about him. We're the last company standing between them and total energy dominance And we can no longer compete Soon, they'll control the energy supply of half the world. In effect, they become a new superpower.

- 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.

Sedation For sleep stable enough to create three layers of dreaming... ...we'll have to combine it with an extremely powerful sedative [MACHINE HISSING]

Five, two- It was something, it was a long number. That's good. We can start there. Fifth floor. Yep. - So do you use a timer? - No, I have to judge it for myself. While you're all asleep in 52$, I wait for Yusuf's kick. - Well, how will you know? - His music warns me. And then when the van hits the barrier of the bridge, that should be unmistakable. So we get a nice synchronized kick. If it's too soon, we won't get pulled out. But if it's too late, I won't be able to drop us. - Well, why not? - Because the van will be in freefall.

Don't jump too soon. We only got one shot at that kick. We gotta make it. I'll play the music to let you know it's coming. The rest is on you. - You ready? - Ready!
