have to put you on hold.

Rachel, I hope

this is important.

I'm talking with the

governor of Washington.

I think that it is.

This is Governor Williams.

Outside of Redding?

Just now?

Are you sure?

An entire train

just disappeared

outside of Redding.

Just disappeared?

In the same location as the

other seismic activity.

What?

Take me in closer.

Sure. No problem.

Now, closer in on that line.

Here we go.

Make me a hard copy.

Yeah, you got it.

120 people were on board

when the train vanished.

Rescue teams are now

searching for survivors.

Dad, can you please

put my music back on?

Hey, this is serious.

Lighten up. They said it

was just an aftershock.

People were probably

hurt in it.

Look, I realize

that you're going

through your own

thing right now,

but do you think you could

consider someone else

once in a while?

Oh, okay. Is this your

version of parental advice?

Yes.

Who are you to give me advice?

I am your father.

Oh. Why don't you

try being my father

and be there once in a while?

What do you call this?

This is something

on your to-do list.

You can't get off that easily.

I don't know why I even try.

How did I know you were

going to say that? God.

Governor, do you want

to issue a statement

regarding the missing train?

No, not yet. Not until

we have all the facts.

Where's Rachel? Rachel?

Jimmy, we already talked

about this this morning.

We've been waiting

for two years now.

I thought you wanted

to have a family.

Yes. Yes, I do,

but not now. Now is

not the right time.

All right, then when?

You know,

it is never going to be

a perfect time, Rachel.

Rachel... I love you.

I love you.

Jimmy, this is such a bad time.

Can we please just

talk about this

when I get home? Please?

Rachel! Rachel, where are you?

Jimmy, I've got to go now.

Rachel, where are you?

Yes, coming.

Rachel? Oh, there you are.

Any news in the

last 10 minutes?

No, nothing yet.

What about the relief effort

for the Seattle area?

Let everyone know

I've already been on the phone

with the governor of Washington.

And we're doing

everything we can.

And the fact that they're

calling this aftershock an 8.4?

It isn't sitting too well

with a lot of people.

When I have more answers,

I'll call a press conference.

Till then, the last

thing we need to do

is add to the panic.

We'll get through this.

Let's take it step by step.

All right?

Jordan? Can we talk?

What is it?

What if that wasn't

an aftershock?

It could be its own

distinct quake.

Two separate earthquakes,

back to back?

Do you know what the odds

of that happening are?

The odds of an aftershock

being larger than

the original quake
