My exact reaction the first time I saw it as well.
Pretending to cry like a little girl, you fool Neo into thinking he has already won the battle. You watch Neo walk closer and wait for the right moment.
3 meters... 2 meters... 1 meter...
In a split second, you launch yourself up from the ground and deliver a fatal "Shads' Super Uppercut of Infinite Justice" straight up his face, sending him across the street, tumbling 10 meters before finally hitting a streetlight.
He's down, but still breating.
What do you do?
1) Show mercy. "I'm not a monster like him."
2) Finish him. "It's time for some fatality, baby!" <<<
