“ He gave you this. He said you set him free.
”― Corrupt, to Neo after Smith briefly visits
Corrupt was a crew member of the Gnosis.
When the Zion ship captains meet within the Matrix for the Crisis Meeting, Corrupt and his comrade Wurm are assigned to guard the door to the meeting place.
When Smith arrives "looking for Neo" because he set him free, Corrupt claims he never heard of him and to 'piss off'; Smith however gives him an envelope containing his own earpiece. When Neo came up, asking who it was, Corrupt gives him the package. Neo soon told Corrupt and Wurm to warn the captains of the arrival of "The Feds", a trio of Upgraded Matrix Agents.
The Gnosis later is part of the fleet sent to intercept the invading Sentinels; it is disabled when Bane sets off the EMP aboard the Caduceus and is subsequently destroyed, probably along with its crew.
Trivia[]
- Ironically, even though he is loyal to Neo and the Resistance, his name would imply a high-ranking person who breaks the law and social standards and serves his or her own needs (although the name "corrupt" is a reference to cyberware, like most of the characters in the series)
