Post by bunniefuu »

MAN (OVER P.A.):
For your safety and security,

and per our regulations,
we ask that you do not

leave your luggage
unattended at any time.

Do you like Munchers?

My daughter does.

I got a free one. Help me out.

- Sure, thanks.
- (PHONE RINGS)

Have a good flight.

Hey.

Hey.

Um, so...

(KIDS SHOUTING PLAYFULLY)

ERIC: Excuse me.

Are you sure you want to interrupt?

She looks like she can handle herself.

Fake laugh. She's trying
to get rid of him.

No, no, no, it's fake
'cause she likes him.

You may know women,
but I know my daughter.

WOMAN (OVER P.A.):
The pre-boarding announcement

for Cartier Air Flight ...

Ah... (TALKS QUIETLY)

We're now inviting those
passengers requiring...

Munchers?

I hate Munchers.

I found a way to upgrade your
seat so we can sit together.

- Do you want me to do that?
- I'm fine in economy.

I routed my trip
through Chicago specifically

to accompany you to Vancouver.

Dad, I will be feet away.

Don't worry.

I'll come and check on you.

Okay.

She won't even sit with me.

Hmm. Why didn't you just
sit her with us to begin with?

Oh, her mother booked her tickets,

but then she got pulled to
Hong Kong at the last minute

since our conference is in Vancouver.

Anyway, I figured...

We don't let Evie travel alone anymore.

Why?

Last time she flew alone,
she was kidnapped.

- Oh, my God.
- Yeah.

...this is the boarding announcement for

- Cartier Air Flight to Vancouver.
- That's us.

We're inviting all passengers
to begin boarding at this time.

Welcome to Cartier Flight . Thanks.

Here we are. Welcome to Cartier...

Oh, do you need help finding your seat?

Yeah, yes. Right down this aisle.

LIAM: So you're telling me
that she actually said yes?

YES. (LAUGHS): What?

You're so full of crap.

And she's gonna be in Vancouver
the whole time we're there.

Dude, that's crazy.

MCDOUGALL: Gentlemen.

Not the time, not the place.

Oh, excuse me.

Sure.

So what happened? Who kidnapped Evie?

(SIGHS) It's a story for another day.

Munchers?

No, thanks.

Okay.

TREMBLAY (OVER P.A.):
Ladies and gentlemen,

this is the captain speaking.

We'll be departing in a few moments.

Weather report shows sunny skies...

Uh, hey.

It's Evie, right?

Looks like we're sitting together.

This isn't F.

Okay, yeah.

You caught me.
Switched seats with my teammate.

Well, your transparency is astounding.

A-And charming?

(CHUCKLES): Little bit.

Tighten your seatbelt.

Bad things happen when I travel.

TREMBLAY: Flight attendants
prepare for takeoff.

Okay. (CHUCKLES)

Sir, coffee? Something to drink?

Last night, we won,
so we snuck up onto the roof,

and, you know, we were partying,

and, as a joke, um, some of the guys

locked the three of us
onto the roof all night.

You know, so we'd missed breakfast,

we missed the bus,

- and then we ended up...
- Having fun, Bower?

Uh, no, sir.

He okay?

He's a hard-ass.

But he knows how to coach.

ERIC: I'm just glad

she's spending more time in Chicago now.

She was away from her
grandfather for too long.

Away from me, too.

Why?

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

TREMBLAY: Bruno?

Bruno, open the door. Come on.

What's going on?

- I know you can hear me.
- Open the door.

The captain's locked out.

(KNOCKING CONTINUES)

Everything all right?

Oh, yes, sir, everything's fine.
Please, return to your seat.

(INTERCOM BEEPS)

Captain.

Just returning from the washroom.

- Copilot's not responding.
- You try the code?

TREMBLAY: He overrode it.

Listen, I'm a professional negotiator.

Maybe I can help.

Well, you can help
by returning to your seat.

Sir, the captain is busy.

- Please take your seat.
- I thought cockpit doors

were impossible to open from the outside.

We have a code in case the pilot
suffers a medical emergency.

- Must just be a technical issue.
- All right.

What is going on?

Copilot.

I think he just h*jacked the plane.

♪ ♪

We need the captain on our side.

I agree, but he's definitely
the take charge type.

Maybe he'll listen to a woman.

They rarely do.

(CHUCKLES): Right.

(JET ENGINE WHIRRING)

(PASSENGERS GASP)

(WHIRRING QUIETS)

WOMAN: That's normal, right?

Captain, I'm sorry.

Uh, what-what's going on?

Oh, just some turbulence up ahead.

The copilot's diverting, that's all.

Perhaps the passengers
should be reassured.

Yeah.

(ELECTRONIC BELL CHIMES)

Ladies and gentlemen,
this is Captain Tremblay.

Due to some turbulence up ahead,
we are making

a slight course correction.

Please, just enjoy

the rest of the flight.

Okay, Captain, what's really going on?

Or do you always stand
outside the cockpit door

when there's turbulence?

As Eric said,

we're negotiators.
What have you got to lose?

The copilot's flying us south.

Is he talking? Made any demands?

No.

Nothing but silence so far.

But as long as the Wi-Fi is up,

I can make calls, so I'm
gonna contact flight center

to find out if they have
any idea why my copilot

isn't responding.

Look, his name is Bruno Lessio.

CYNTHIA: Why would a copilot
divert his own plane? Terrorism?

Or a su1c1de.

Why not just crash the plane?

Well, jumpers often stand
on a ledge for hours.

I mean, the fact that he's not
sure is to our advantage.

- Call Zara. I'm gonna talk to Bruno.
- Okay.

(PHONE RINGING)

It's Cynthia.

Hey.

CYNTHIA: Hey, Zara.
We have a situation here.

Bruno, my name's Eric Beaumont.
I'm a professional negotiator.

Now, the first rule of negotiation

is to find out what the person needs,

and then find a way
to give it to them, so...

how can I help?

You know, if you don't
want to talk to me,

is there anyone out here
that you would like to talk to?

Can I hear your voice?

Just to know that you're okay.

Please?

We need to find out everything
we can about the copilot,

Bruno Lessio.

Okay, I'm on it.

All right, and I'll contact the FAA.

Let us know if you guys
need anything else.

What about some parachutes?

You know, if you don't want to talk

through the door, Bruno, let me in.

Then if you change your mind
and want me to leave, I will go.

Progress?

No.

Becky, do you know him?

Not really. We've crewed a
couple of short hauls together.

He's serious. Quiet.

Depressed?

Bruno, you want some food or a drink?

You know, if you don't want
to answer my questions,

maybe you'd like to ask me something?

BRUNO: Yes.

Go ahead.

Do you believe in Hell?

- (HYPERVENTILATING)
- Becky? Becky?

Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

- Listen to me.
- Oh, God.

Listen to me. I-I need you
to keep it together, okay?

Yeah?

Uh, it sounds like you're a moral person.

That's, uh, that's great to hear.

Would you like to talk to
a religious or spiritual leader?

Come on, Bruno. What's going on?
Where are we going?

Denver.

Why Denver?

He says we're going to Denver.
How long will that take?

minutes.

Captain, what are you doing?

Talking to flight center.

- We're finding a way in there.
- Is that possible?

Well, we're gonna make it possible.

- Go ahead.
- ZARA: The FAA is gonna instruct

the captain to give you and Eric
his full cooperation,

but it's at his discretion.

He's hardly discreet.
Any idea why Denver?

FAA, FBI, RCMP, no one has a clue.

There's nothing that connects
the copilot to Denver,

he's never flown there, and
there's nothing going on there.

OLIVER: I'm looking at the guy's

social media page.

He has friends, family.

Bruno Lessio seems
like a pretty happy guy.

Bought an apartment
in Montreal six months ago.

Promising career.
He even made plans this weekend.

Yeah, he doesn't sound suicidal.

- What is it, then?
- OLIVER: I don't know.

We're gonna go
check out Bruno's apartment.

Police are on their way there now.

We'll be in touch.

Hey.

Bruno, this is Captain Tremblay.

If you do not open this door,

I am gonna take a crash axe
and pry open a panel

until I get to the avionics bay.

Then I am gonna start pulling
out hydraulic circuit boards

until you can no longer fly the plane.

Do you under...

Your threats will not persuade him, sir.

Well, your talk isn't exactly
persuading him either, is it?

Maybe Bruno will land
the plane in Denver.

No, pilot hijackings
generally mean pilot suicides.

If he attempts to fly us
over downtown Denver,

the Air Force is gonna knock us
out of the sky, do you get that?

If you rip out the electronics,
then who's gonna fly the plane?

I will know which circuits
work and which won't.

I will have ground
operation support, he won't.

But you'd have to get inside.

Yes.

What about autopilot?

Autopilot does not land
a plane like this.

Listen, if we do not open that
door and get inside, we die.

Captain.

Can you tell us what's happening, please?

Yeah, of-of course I can. I'm so sorry.

LIAM (QUIETLY): Yo, guys, guys.

Um, did you hear
what's going on up there?

I heard someone said there's a hijacking.

- No way.
- EVIE: That's insane.

Would you guys be willing
to give me a hand?

I'm their coach. What's going on?

Well, we have a situation.

Oh, my God, I'm cursed.

Bruno, open the cockpit door, or the
captain's gonna do something rash.

Now, I can come in and broker an
arrangement between the two of you.

Whatever the problem is, we can solve it.

BRUNO: Okay.

Captain Tremblay can come in.

But no one else.

Eric.

Listen, he's willing to let you back in,

but everybody else
has to stand back, okay?

Those are his terms.

Okay. Okay. I can take this.

Why is he letting me back in?

- Maybe he changed his mind.
- Could be a trick.

Maybe. But, Captain,
no pressure on him, okay?

Don't thr*aten. Just... let him talk.

And listen.

If you're calm, he's calm, all right?

Aah! My eyes! My eyes!

MCDOUGALL: Go, go, go!

ERIC: Guys, no, stop!
The door is impenetrable!

You're only gonna provoke him!

- Open the door!
- Get back.

Get off! Get back!

(JET ENGINE WHIRRING)

(PLANE RUMBLING)

(PASSENGERS SCREAMING)

(PANTING)

(ALARM BEEPING)

Enough, Bruno. We get the message.

(WHIRRING AND RUMBLING QUIET)

- Anybody hurt?
- (PANICKED CHATTER)

Are you okay?

Everybody okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, we're okay. You?

Yeah, I'm fine. Evie?

EVIE: Yeah, I'm okay, except...

now the only person
who can land the plane

is the guy who's gonna crash it.

Yeah.

(PANTING)

(PASSENGERS CHATTERING, CRYING)

I'm okay, Dad. No, it's okay.

- If you need me, just tell the flight...
- We got it.

Okay. Just stay in your seat

with your seat belt on.

Both of you.

Is Evie okay?

She's a trouper. What about the captain?

We flushed out as much as we could.

DOCTOR: His vision impairment
is only temporary.

But I'm not an ophthalmologist.

MAN: Who are you guys?

(CLEARS THROAT)

We're professional negotiators.

The man in the cockpit can still
land the plane, and he will.

We just need to persuade him.

The key here is not to panic.

Outside this plane,
there are thousands of people

figuring out what to do,
so we're not alone.

(QUIETLY): Good speech.

Ah. I just wish I believed it.

Now what?

I saw Bruno earlier in the boarding area.

- What was his mood?
- Good.

I spoke to him; he was pleasant, smiling.

He gave me the Munchers, but...

I sensed only fear and
resignation from the cockpit.

Well, what changed?

Exactly.

Clear to enter.

- Police!
- Police!

(PHONE RINGING) ZARA: Okay, thank you.

Eric. I'm glad you called.

I just had two quick minutes
with Montreal police.

Bruno has no criminal history,
and his doctor says

there's no indication of drug abuse.

He hasn't been diagnosed
with a mental illness.

He isn't taking antidepressants.

I saw Bruno

before we boarded.

Now, he took a call.
Maybe he got bad news.

- Can you check his incoming?
- We already did.

His last call was from
his ex, a Fiona Stemkowska.

She lives across the street.
That's how they met.

Well, I want to talk to her.

She's on her way.

In fact...

...here she is right now.

Eric, we'll call you right back.

Hi.

Hi.

(INTERCOM BEEPS)

Bruno, it's Eric Beaumont again.

We met earlier.

You gave me the Munchers, remember?

You got what you wanted, Bruno.

Captain Tremblay is incapacitated.

You are in full control.

Whatever you think is in Denver,
maybe I can help you find it.

No one can help me.

Why?

Come on, what's gonna happen
if you tell me?

Once we get to Denver

and you've found what you're looking for,

will you be happy?

I'll never be happy.

But at least it will stop.

What will stop, Bruno?

(PHONE RINGING)

Oliver.

So, I'm with Fiona Stemkowska.

I've briefed her on the situation.

She said she broke up with
Bruno three weeks ago.

Why'd you break up with him, Fiona?

I-I'm a single mom. Ethan is my life.

I-I could just tell
Bruno would never commit.

Was the breakup bitter?

No. If anything, he was relieved.

And the call today?

Friendly. I-I had left some things

at his place, and I wanted to know

- when I could pick them up.
- Okay, here's the point.

Fiona said Bruno would wake up screaming,

shaking, sweating.

FIONA: I tried to talk to him

about it, but... he clams up.

Classic post-traumatic stress syndrome.

Do you know why he'd have PTSS?

No. We can't figure it out.

Okay. Fiona, do you think
if you talked to Bruno,

you could persuade him to land the plane?

I could give it a try.

OLIVER: So the best way

to reach Bruno is
to show him that you care.

So try to find a way to express it.

Okay.

OLIVER: Okay, we're ready.

Bruno, I have someone
who wants to talk to you.

Bruno?

Fiona?

I don't know what's going on.

You're-you're scaring a lot of people.

That's not like you.

Open the door.

Land the plane.

You won't be alone.
You'll have me and Ethan.

I want to be alone.

No, Bruno...

I care about you, Fi.

I do, I love you, and I...

I love Ethan, too.

But you're better off without me.

So is the world.

Bruno.

(CRYING): Bruno, please.

You were in a good mood earlier, Bruno.

What happened? Did you talk to someone?

Did you see something?

Becky.

Is there a list of
the passengers we can access?

On the airline's Internet.

We can see everything
the flight center sees.

Why?

My colleagues on the ground...

I want them to have full access.

It's possible Bruno recognized
one of the passengers

in the waiting area when he boarded.

Maybe that's what triggered him.

Here.

I'll see what I can do.

Thank you.

Okay, Becky, I'm in. Thanks.

What are you doing?

Flight manifest. Seeing who's on board.

Look, Bruno's passport
from when he was a kid.

But the name reads
Bruno Venturi, not Bruno Lessio.

He changed his name.

Looks like it.

He still won't open the door.

(EXHALES) Oh, God, we're gonna die.

No, we're not, okay? My dad
can talk anyone into anything.

LIAM: We shouldn't be here, man.

We should be with the rest of the team.

None of this would be happening.

- Yeah, well, we're not. Are we?
- I-I'm sorry, guys.

LIAM: It's not your fault, man.
Don't worry about it.

Yeah, man, don't worry about it.

What are you guys talking about?

Is it about the roof party?

What roof party?

Hey.

Hey!

This is nobody's fault. We're a team.

We stick together.

Sit down.

ZARA: Bruno Venturi,
first-round soccer draft pick

and said to be a star.

But then his stats tumbled.

Sports articles trashed him.

Soccer social media
started to harass him.

Is that why he changed his
name and got out of the game?

Wait a second. Gord McDougall.

ERIC: Who's Gord McDougall?

It can't be a coincidence.

- What?
- What?

OLIVER: Gord McDougall has

one of the best win/loss records

of any Canadian soccer coach in history.

He's on the flight
with three of his players,

and he was Bruno's old coach.

I got it.

What's going on?

The copilot is Bruno Venturi.

He's flying the plane? Bruno?

Yes. You didn't recognize him?

N-No. I... I haven't seen him
in a dozen years.

He was, like, last time I saw him.

And you cut him?

Yeah.

But I fought to keep him. He knows that.

But Bruno being cut from the team

and now seeing the uniforms...

Let me talk to him.

Look, despite how it ended, Bruno and I,

we share an unbreakable bond.

I wasn't just his coach,
I was his mentor,

his teacher.

I can get that door open

a lot faster than
that negotiator up there,

that's for sure.

Why'd you change your name, Bruno?

I didn't.

There's a passport in your apartment.

And you never even told Fiona
you played soccer.

She had no idea.

I never played soccer.

Bruno, I'll be right back.

I'm not going anywhere.

His coach wants to speak with him.

(EXHALES) I agree.

But we're running out
of time and strategies.

All right.

Bruno is denying
he ever even played soccer.

You can't say anything
that might provoke his anger.

- No problem. I know what to say.
- Okay, w-what's that?

Just watch me.

Listen, I hear anything I don't like,

I'm gonna end the conversation.

So you know.

Yeah.

(INTERCOM BEEPS)

Bruno.

Hi. It's Coach McDougall.

(CHUCKLES) I miss you, buddy.

Hey, you know, I still remember
that game against Costa Rica.

You got the rebound off the crossbar,

headed it into the corner.

Man, that was a beautiful finish.

Listen, Bruno, I understand
what it must be like

seeing those guys
get on the plane, but...

you got to understand,

not everybody can succeed in
the game, and-and that's okay.

I mean, you're a pilot.

The point is to succeed at life,

and clearly, Bruno, you've done that.

Now land the plane,

and then we'll talk.

Whatever you need, man, you...

- WOMAN: Hey, check it out.
- MAN: It's a fighter.

(PANICKED CHATTER)

WOMAN: They gonna sh**t us down?

BECKY: Look out the window.

WOMAN: No, they're here to help us.

BECKY: There's a second
fighter on the starboard side.

They're gonna provoke him.

AIR FORCE COLONEL:
This is NORAD Defense Systems.

Please respond with your status

or we will be forced
to take defensive action.

Is he dumping our fuel?

If he doesn't switch it off,
we won't have enough fuel

to land the plane anywhere.

Colonel, we can't negotiate
under the barrel of a g*n.

You got to get those
fighter jets away from us.

COLONEL: We cannot allow your
plane to be turned into a w*apon.

We're still minutes from Denver.

Sorry, these orders
come straight from the top.

With all due respect, Colonel,
you're full of crap.

The White House
wouldn't order a sh**t down

until the last second.

Your orders are to tag and tail,
but you're following too close.

You're gonna provoke
the copilot into crashing.

How's that gonna affect
your career, Colonel?

I'll pull them back three miles.
That's the best I can do.

Thank you, sir. Thank you.

- Well played.
- Yeah.

“Cover your butt”
always works in the m*llitary.

TREMBLAY: Even if we get close
to downtown, they're gonna

execute the sh**t order.


We have to get Bruno
heading away from Denver.

If he doesn't turn off that
fuel dump, that won't matter.

Take a look, Bruno.
The F- s are backing off.

Can we talk now?

Come on, Bruno.
I'm doing everything I can.

You got to, you got to meet me halfway.

EVIE: Hey, guys.

Um, Chris and the boys
have been acting kind of weird.

I think there's something going on.

What do you mean?

ZARA (OVER EARBUD): Are we on comms?

CYNTHIA: Loud and clear.

EVIE: We need to talk. Privately.

- Can we talk?
- Yes.

Please, have a seat.

(CYNTHIA CLEARS THROAT)

Hey.

Listen, my name is Eric, okay?

Chris, you have to tell me what
really happened last night.

It might be the difference

between this plane landing or crashing.

Evie, can you give us five?

Yeah.

MCDOUGALL: This is
just like Bruno's behavior


back in the day. He was,
he was always very impulsive.

You seemed very moved
when you were talking to him.

Of course I was moved. I love these guys.

And I know that I can
get him to open that door.

You got to give me another chance.

ZARA: Okay, Cynthia, I think
I got what you're looking for.

A series of legal settlements and NDAs

all associated with the team,

and one name keeps reappearing:
Coach Gord McDougall.

Maybe.

But first can you tell me about
the nondisclosure agreements?

I'm sorry.

I don't know what you're talking about.

ZARA: NDA dated July , .

A second one dated

- May , .
- May , .

July , .

What's going on, Coach?

- What did you do?
- Nothing.

Then what's in those agreements?

What can't you talk about?

Physical abuse?

Verbal abuse?

- Steroids?
- Okay, look.

These are kids. You know, we
have to protect their privacy.

I was drinking last night.

But...

it wasn't 'cause we won.

Coach, he, uh...

he called me into his hotel room,

like... like he always does.

You really want to hear this?

Yeah, I need to...
I need to know the truth.

I couldn't take it anymore.

I went out on my balcony and...

I-I thought about jumping.

But then Liam and Sean,
they-they came and...

They-they stopped you.

If I say anything,
no one will believe me.

I-If they say anything,
they'll get kicked off the team.

When you've got a record like Coach's,

no one wants to hear about that stuff.

You weren't just Bruno's coach, were you?

You did other things with him.

- You got some nerve...
- And when he tried to speak,

- you got rid of him.
- You are way off base.

- Let me talk to him.
- He is dumping fuel.

We don't land unless you confess.

And then maybe, maybe we all live.

Well, I'll be at
the front waiting. Think.

ZARA: Hey, I've been analyzing
Bruno's flight path

with the guy at the FAA.

He isn't headed for downtown Denver.

His vector takes him straight
towards Dunvegan College,

miles southwest of the city.

That's the Nabilio scandal.

Remind me.

OLIVER: Dunvegan was the sight of a major

football sex abuse scandal.

Lance Nabilio was the head
coach who covered it up.

That's where Bruno's crashing the plane.

He's making a statement.

ZARA: But there's a problem, Eric.

If he's dumping fuel,
the plane's not gonna make it.

Bruno.

Dunvegan College, right?

Small problem.

Check your fuel gauge.

There's not enough fuel, is there?

It's a bold statement, Bruno.

I understand it, and what's more...

I want to help, so let me.

There is a young man here.

His name is Chris. He's .

He wants to talk.

Hold down the button.

Uh... Hi. I'm-I'm Chris.

I-I'm a striker with Montreal.

Eric says you used to play for us.

(QUIETLY): Keep going.

Look, the coach...

same thing happened to me
that happened to you.

For me, it started three weeks in.

I-I don't know why he picked me, but...

but he did.

I'm sorry, Chris.

You can save Chris's future
and bring Coach McDougall

to justice, but first you have
to turn off the fuel dump.

Okay.

(SIGHS)

(FUEL HISSING SLOWS)

That's great, Bruno.

Now let's talk about finding a runway.

Sure.

Okay.

No, there's no way you're talking to him.

I know him. I know how to talk to him.

No, he's agreed to land the plane.

Come on, Bruno.

You know how much you meant to me.

Don't you remember how connected we were,

how many great times

- we had together?
- Okay, Coach...

- Open that... Open the...
- (PLAYERS SHOUTING)

Get off me! Get off!

(PANTING)

You're finished. All of you.

You'll never play soccer again.

ERIC: Bruno, it's over.

Chris has come forward.

His teammates have taken the coach away.

- There's no reason to...
- BRUNO: It doesn't matter!

Arresting the coach
won't make a difference.

It's everywhere.

Chris is part of the problem.
I'm part of the problem.

It needs to stop now.

- (SWITCH CLICKS)
- (JET ENGINE WHIRRING)

AUTOMATED VOICE: Danger. Danger. Danger.

(PASSENGERS SCREAMING)

Eric.

He's going to crash into the Rockies.

AUTOMATED VOICE: Danger. Danger.

Danger. Danger.

Danger. Danger.

What's happening?

(PASSENGERS SCREAMING)

He just purged the oxygen.

- ERIC: How much air do we have?
- minutes before we run out.

And if he doesn't repressurize
the cabin, what happens?

We're dead.

(ALARM BEEPING)

No, I got it. Get yours.

All right, all right.

(PANTING)

- Did you call your mom?
- I couldn't get through.

You know, we went hiking once near Oka.

You disappeared.

You were missing for, like, minutes.

When the park rangers found you,

you had already gathered berries to eat.

You found this little shelter
under a fallen tree.

And you were singing.

To keep the witches away. (LAUGHS)

- (CHUCKLES): That's right.
- That's right.

I was in awe.

I still am.

CYNTHIA: We tried everything
we could. Nothing worked.

We're gonna run out of oxygen soon.

Okay, you guys, hang in there.

ZARA: This is not over.

Can you be more specific?
'Cause that might help.

Dad?

Yeah.

Why did you push me away?

I thought if I kept my distance,

it would keep you safe.

It felt like you abandoned me.

No.

I'm so sorry, sweetie.

I wish I could've been a better dad.

You were a better dad.

BECKY: This will give
you ten minutes more

than the rest of us.

You're our only chance.

Try again. Please.

I'm staying with you till the end, okay?

You can't protect me
from everything, Dad.

Go do your job.

I love you so much, Evie.

You are the most important
thing in my life.

And you always will be.

You always will be.

Isn't there anyone you want to call?

OLIVER: Eric.

Yeah?

Eric, thank you for everything.

Guys...

Oh...

Oh, wow.

That's some view.

Munchers?

ERIC: Something you said before
has been eating at me.

You said, “I'm part of the problem.”

What did you mean by that?

Nothing.

Nothing, huh?

I know this isn't about vengeance.

You wouldn't k*ll a plane
full of people for that.

There's something else going on.

What if you've become
the thing you fear the most?

What if the abused becomes the abuser?

That's why you shied away
from Fiona when she tried

to bring her son
into your life, isn't it?

Why you think you need to k*ll yourself.

And the other players and the coach.

You don't know how else to end
this terrible cycle of abuse,

do you?

The thing about PTSS

is that sometimes it gives rise
to unwanted thoughts.

But thoughts are not the same as urges.

Have you ever acted
on your thoughts, Bruno?

No.

Of course not.

Coach McDougall had urges,
and he acted on them,

with complete disregard for his victims.

On the other hand, I mean, you could've

taken this plane into a nosedive
at any point, but you didn't.

You purged the oxygen

so that the passengers
fell asleep peacefully.

You did that out of compassion.

You and the coach are not the same,

and you never will be, okay?

You don't know who I am.

Maybe not.

But Fiona does know.

AUTOMATED VOICE: Caution. Terrain.

(ALARM BEEPING)

Go ahead, Fiona.

Bruno? Babe?

AUTOMATED VOICE: Caution. Terrain.

Fiona.

I-I heard everything.
Why didn't you tell me?

- Oh...
- FIONA: I love you.

I'll be there for you.

AUTOMATED VOICE: Caution. Terrain.

FIONA: We'll be there for you.

This won't keep us away from you.

AUTOMATED VOICE: Caution. Terrain.

(CRYING): Bruno.

She heard the truth,
and she didn't push you away.

You tell the world, and they will listen.

Nobody listened years ago.

ERIC: Yeah, because
Coach McDougall used his power

to shut you up.

Silence was his w*apon of choice,

but there is nothing more silent
than smoldering wreckage

and dead bodies on the
summit of a mountain.

If you crash this plane, Coach wins.

You understand that?

(CRYING)

The only way to stop the cycle
is to speak up.

FIONA: Bruno!

Bruno, please!

End the silence.

AUTOMATED VOICE: Danger. Pull up.

Danger. Pull up.
