What about the crew?

Anybody know about them?

Not yet, I was just about to find out.

Will you stay with the girl?

- Yeah, all right, but what's happening?

- Come back with some answers.

All right, everybody, just calm down.

Hello, you guys, open up.

Hello.

So, what do you think happened?

Do you think the plane landed

and let the other passengers off?

I don't know. I was asleep.

You're a teacher, aren't you?

That's right, sweetie. The 5th grade.

How did you know that?

It's in your voice.

Miss Lee, my teacher

at the blind school,

sounds just like you.

If you'll excuse me, I think

I'm going forward to join our friend.

I want to know what is going on here

and I want to know right now.

Nor am I a bit surprised.

You said before

that you had felt someone's hair.

- What did you mean by that?

- Over there on one of the seats,

I felt someone's hair.

This? This is a wig.

It's not a human scalp.

Is that what you felt?

What do you see?

Nothing, just mountains

and darkness.

Hello?

Hello. Hello?

What's wrong? The flight crew

disappear with everybody else?

Yeah. No. I don't know.

They're not answering my calls

- and the door's locked from the inside.

- I was afraid of that.

Sorry to get your wind up.

Nick Hopewell.

I am praying, sir, that the pilot's cap

I noticed on one of the first-class seats

belongs to you.

It does. Captain Engle.

But under the circumstances,

you can call me Brian.

I'll call you saviour if we find

what I expect to find

on the other side of that door.

Well, let's try and get it open,

shall we?

Okay.

All right, let's see.

How could someone disappear

and leave their hairpiece behind?

That's quite a mystery,

don't you think?

- God.

- Yeah,

you're not kidding.

Somebody's bridge work.

I was afraid of that.

What's going on here?

Hello, excuse me.

Come out from back there.

Who's back there?

- Hi.

- Yeah.

I'd like to know

what's going on, please.

Currently, we're about to break

the cockpit door.

It seems our crew have abdicated

along with everybody else.

But we're in luck all the same.

My new acquaintance here

just happens to be a pilot.

Do you work

for American Pride, friend?

Yes, I do.

- But I think what's important...

- No, I'm gonna tell you...

- Excuse me.

- I'm gonna tell you what's important.

You know what's important?

I have a meeting at Boston's

Prudential Center at 9:00 this morning.

Promptly at 9:
00.

That's what's important.

Now, I booked a seat

on this conveyance in good faith,

and I have absolutely no intention

of being late for that appointment.

Wait, wait, wait.

Now, I have three

questions for you:

Number one, who authorised
