smith later touches someone named bane. now smith controls an unplugged human, making him very dangerous. as bane, smith tries to kill neo, but another human named the kid accidentally stops that from happening when he comes to say goodbye to neo. later, the humans line all of their ships together. they hope to trigger their emps all at once to stop the machines (the emp kills all electronics within their radius). smith/bane, on one of these ships, triggers the emp before they are supposed to and ruins the attack.
