In "Through the looking glass" Alice(in this matter: Detective Ash) had to cross 8 brooks to get to the Red Queen(in this matter: Trinity). "Through The Looking Glass" was basicly based on a chess match. And the "Brooks" are the dividers for each square on the chess board. A Brook is basicly a big tall bush that acts like a wall. Like the walls in mazes. In a game of chess every pawn, for the first move they make, can move forward 2 squares. Alice, being a pawn, does this and is considered "in the woods". The only thing I can think of is "in the woods" means that she is in trouble or about to start a fight. Ash, crossing the 2nd brook while chasing trinity, started a fight with the agents. Being as when he got on the train they got in to a gun fight. The quote "You've just stepped to the edge of the looking glass" means that Ash didn't quite make it. Because in "Through The Looking Glass" Alice actually falls in to the looking glass, however Ash did not. After ash finds out that he has to jump the brooks, basicly crossing the streets in this matter, he sees that on the other side there is a train station. Trinity gives him a time to be there, so when he gets there he gets on the only train there. The story was great if you actually got all the connections. I personally loved the art work. Its all based on “Alice In Wonderland” and it’s sequel “Through The Looking Glass”.

'Alice' may be a reference to Lewis Carrol's book 'Through the looking glass' (and what Alice found there). The Matrix film also referred to the first book mentioning following/going down the rabbit hole A brook is like a small stream I believe. ‘Alice’ may be a reference to Lewis Carrol’s book ‘Through the looking glass’ (and what Alice found there).
