Source Code Page #3

Synopsis: Army Captain Colter Stevens finds himself working on a special program where his consciousness can be inserted into another human being. The only catch is can only be there for 8 minutes at any given time. That morning, a bomb exploded on a commuter train just outside Chicago. He occupies the body of teacher going to work on that train and is confused as to what he is doing or why he is there as his last memory is of flying his helicopter on a combat mission in Afghanistan. Those in charge of the program explain to him that there is a bomb on the train, and that he must locate it. More importantly, he must identify the bomber as another bombing is expected later that day. He is also told however that he cannot change the past and can only gather information. As he develops a liking for his traveling companion Christina, he sets out to test that theory.

good.

Our records show, that 1812 calls ended at the moment of the explosion.

Do you remember a freight train passing by?

just before the explosion.

Ja.

The explosion was timed to engulf the passing freight train

which means, the bomber had be watching both trains

when the call was made.

I want you to concentrate on the passengers in your car.

Get to know them, narrow suspectpool.

Look for ones, who seem quite or withdrawn, who seem nervous.

As always, you have 8 minutes.

Yes

I need you to discipline yourself on this next path.

Perform only the task, that we assign you.

Everything else is irrelevant.

Start the sequence.

...is my father even...

I took your advice...

it was very good advice

So quite today?

-I got a lot on my mind.-

Ups

Oh, I am so sorry

-No problem-

That's very kind of you.

You're very decent.

Thank you.

And real.

-Ticket!-

How you doing today?

-good-

Anything unusual?

-Ehmm no-

I mean behavior on the train.

Is anything or anybody seems strange to you?

You look strange.

How about you,

does anybody looks suspicious?

Are you drunk or something?

-Come here-

Come for a moment.

come on.

Just think of it as a game.

-A game?-

They are all so utterly normal, Shawn.

That's what so terrifying about them.

Maybe they are a team network.

The sleeping giant coached with the ministry and the comedian.

Don't forget the student, he is expendable.

But they are all controlled by the conductor.

Standing there like a king and demanding tickets.

You are funny.

-Damn it-

What about that guy?

-Deposition-

And the woman who is sitting cross him?

Hair appointment, every monday, you know this.

You know this people better than me.

And the guy behind her?

He's late for an audition, right?

Or audition to the court

he got caught driving drunk twice.

-Hey, hows the signal in here?-

Good

Is teaching not stimulating for you anymore, Sherlock?

Oh oh, the toilet ist sure jammed now.

-Did anyone else come out of the bathroom?-

Well, I saw you coming out of there.

-Me?

Yes.

-No-

Me?

-Hey Mr.-

Hold on a second.

What's in here.

A broken phone.

What is this.

Coffee with Christina.

Christina?

-Yea-

Excuse me.

Hey, hey come with me.

-This isn't our stop!-

come on, let's take a walk.

-We don't get off here.-

I don't know, just be spontaneaous.

-You start freaking me up-

I know this sounds a bit weird

but I have a really bad feeling about this train

and that we should get off, ok?

Just get your stuff.

Doors are closing.

Come on, come with me.

So what now?

-Wait here, I will be right back!-

Ready for coffee now?

Oh sorry, ah yea yea,

just one more second, ok?

Oh for god's sake.
