Robert Fischer, affectionately known as The Mark by the team, is the target of the job offered to Cobb and his team by Saito. His father is on his death bed, leaving Robert as the heir to his multi-billion dollar empire. Despite his vast wealth, Robert is riddled with all sorts of insecurities, as one might expect of someone who has lived his entire life in the shadow of a hugely powerful individual. Key among those insecurities is the fear of not living up to his father's standards, an insecurity which allows Dom the opportunity for Inception. Fischer is portrayed by actor Cillian Murphy.
History
As the team works through the dream levels trying to achieve inception within Fischer's subconscious, they uncover various pieces of information about the wealthy young man's life that they are able to use to their advantage. His relationship with his father has always been strained and it became particularly bad following his mother's death when he was eleven years old. As Fischer explains, all his father said to him after his mother's passing was, "There really isn't anything to say". Their relationship hasn't improved over the years and, indeed, the only fond memory Fischer has of his fat
her is captured in a photograph of the pair happily playing with a homemade pinwheel. Fischer is obviously very attatched to the image as he makes a point of placing it beside his father's death bed, though the ailing man does not acknowledge it. In the first level of the dream (The City), while being "held hostage" with Eames disguised as Peter Browning, Fischer reveals that in his dying moments, Maurice Fischer called his son to his bedside only to utter the word "disappointed".
