Gray redirects here. For the Exile sometimes called Gray, see Grisaille.

Agent Gray was the mission controller of the Machinists faction. Gray is the leading Agent who worked for the Architect, and worked alongside the then functioning Agent Skinner, and then worked alongside Agent Pace after the former liaison was deleted.


It is also speculated that Agent Gray is still infected with the Smith virus, hints of which were seen during the critical mission involving The Assassin.

Background

Gray was one of several Agents trapped in the Matrix during the infestation known as Smith. His program was overwritten with new code, executing instructions which conflicted with his primary architecture. When Smith was defeated and Smith's program was withdrawn from the system, Gray was freed, but his ordeal was not over yet.

The Machine Civilization is run by cautious protocols, and there was still some chance that the Smith code had found a place to shelter within the system, or within an RSI. Agents that had been exposed to Smith were quarantined within the Matrix during the reset—something that is usually never done. Bluepills have their connections to the system attenuated so they never notice the event, and Exiles can seek shelter in a construct, but Agents have no such recourse. Those trapped in the system during the reset were literally turned inside out as their code was deconstructed and recompiled with a vicious error-checking routine.

Even afterwards, he has not been allowed to return to the Source, instead relegated to a buffer system created during the reboot—a gateway construct which acts as a Machine analog to The Merovingian's Mobil Avenue Station. In some ways he is almost like an Exile, except for the fact that he believes he will eventually be able to return to the Source.

Description & Style

Due to his current situation, Agent Gray was selected to act as a recruiter and Controller for human beings that the Machines believe can assist them in controlling the Matrix. Like all Agents, he is normally dispassionate and aloof, with a precise manner of speaking, but his forced dealings with humans have left him with a somewhat deeper understanding of them than most Agents.

When dealing with humans, he uses many euphemisms, as he has found that humans often prefer not to say what they really mean. Death is "cessation of awareness." Stealing is "expeditious acquisition." He addresses humans by their gender title and bluepill last name (e.g. "Mister Anderson"), and seems to have a foolproof way of knowing this information about every human he speaks to.

Though Gray resented his assignment greatly at first, he has come to appreciate the fact that he is better at dealing with humans than most other Machine Agents. Although he does not enjoy interacting with humans, the fact that he is efficient at it gives him a sense of pride.
