Passengers Page #2

Synopsis: After a plane crash, a young therapist, Claire, is assigned by her mentor to counsel the flight's five survivors. When they share their recollections of the incident -- which some say include an explosion that the airline claims never happened -- Claire is intrigued by Eric, the most secretive of the passengers. Just as Claire's professional relationship with Eric -- despite her better judgment -- blossoms into a romance, the survivors begin to disappear mysteriously, one by one. Claire suspects that Eric may hold all the answers and becomes determined to uncover the truth, no matter the consequences.

shocks to the system...

there is often a repression

of negative feelings.

Later on, these feelings will creep up

on you. There will be a balance due.

Do you paint?

No.

I always wanted to paint.

But I never dared.

What kind of things would you paint?

(Chuckling)

God you just can't help yourself,

can you, doctor?

Okay.

I did promise.

What do you do for work?

I'm a VP at Hein Dragg,

it's a brokerage firm.

But I'm not going back to that.

I've spent most of my life,

living the wrong way.

See my control towel, over here?

Printer, fax, high-speed Internet,

computers, e-mail, telephone, cell phone...

multimessengers, it's horse-sh*t.

Design to keep people away

from each other.

Did you feel that way before..

before the accident?

No, I was too busy working my ass off,

afraid of the rain.

So, you're re-evaluating your priorities.

Well put.

Eric, it's really important that we mean

to revisit your experience.

Okay.

What's the first thing that comes

to your mind about the accident?

The wind in my face.

Okay, what do you remember after that?

Walking the beach,

next to a rather large bonfire.

Can you remember anything else

between these two events?

One of the other passengers says that

he remembers bright light...

or a loud noise, perhaps...

but something during the mid-flight.

It's okay to cry.

I'm not gonna cry.

Uhmm..

What else?

Are you sleeping?

Of course.

Any dreams?

I don't remember.

Stick around, I will awake you

when I'm having one.

No thanks.

Why not?

I don't know.

It's frowned upon in

my professional community.

Isn't that silly?

It is silly.

Directions to the group meeting.

You should come by, Eric,

you won't regret it.

You're like a dog with a bone.

Thanks for the coffee.

Hey, Claire.

Drop by any time.

Did you mention me to Eric Clark

before I came along?

- No.

- No?

I've never met him.

He knows personal things about me.

Like what?

Not any big things, how to

take my coffee, that I have a sister.

How does he explain it?

No, he hasn't tried,

and I haven't asked.

How is your sister?

Uhmm..

Emma?

Emma, right.

- She's good.

- She's good?

She's good. Yeah...

I've been doing some research

on some PTSD patients...

that may have developed

an extrasensory perception.

Really?

It's a.. theory.

Most of combat veterans.

So, he's a..

so, he's reading your mind.

Hmm?

- Yes?

- All right, all right.

(Chuckling)

Claire.

Did they even find any more information

about what happened up there?

Why do you ask?

Well, their initial assessments

are all over the place.

This one passenger, Dean Haschle,

he seems to remember...

an explosion on board.

None of the others agree.
