Fearless

There's more over here!

Bring another team!

We'll need a lot more help!

Are you okay? Is the baby all right?

It's okay. You can stay with your dad.

I'm not his father. He's alone.

- Go with him.

- No, please.

- You'll be okay.

- I want to be with you.

Take him.

I've got to find the mother.

Now, go.

Come with me.

You'll be all right.

Everyone, please stay where you are.

We'll be with you in a minute.

Get them out of there! It's going to blow!

Get them out!

My boy!

My boy! My little boy's in there!

No, my baby's in there!

I can't leave my boy!

Stop!

Stop, my baby's in there!

My baby!

Stop!

Are you okay?

Were you in the crash?

No. I found this baby.

I've got to find the mother.

There's a woman over there.

She's looking for her baby.

Right over there.

Is this your baby?

My sweet angel.

I want to go to the nearest hotel.

You've got to be kidding.

You're not dead.

An Inter City Air spokesperson indicates

an estimated 200 passengers were...

Wire reports confirm a crash

of an Inter City Air jet...

...in the northeast section of the county

at Route 7 and Lake.

Although, remarkably enough,

people maintained themselves pretty well.

People pull together in a situation Like that

and the crew was very professional.

Max.

Max Klein.

What the hell are you doing here?

Just passing through.

You bastard, you don't look any different.

- Nice try.

- It's true.

Look at you. I can't believe it!

It's been 20 years.

These are strawberry pancakes?

I wanted...

Do you have whole strawberries?

I guess.

Bring me a bowl, please.

I don't remember you having

a thing for strawberries.

How's Bill? Is he head

of the theater department yet?

No.

He was passed over.

I'll make this quick. I can't stand going

through the list. My life's a disaster.

No, it isn't.

- Yes, it is.

- Trust me.

Your life isn't a disaster.

I'm fat. I haven't written a play in years.

Timmy, my oldest...

...has a learning disability.

Thanks to therapy I love him for what

he is, not my fantasy of what he should be.

The middle two, James and Sarah,

resent the extra attention Timmy got...

...so they f*** up in school to punish us.

They're working it out in a support group,

Siblings of the Learning Disabled.

My youngest, Ellen, who was going to be

a great ballerina...

...destroyed her ankle playing basketball

with her brothers.

As for Bill, he's screwing a student.

Pathetic.

It's not even tragic.

Have a strawberry?

What good will that do?

Forbidden fruit always does good.

Forbidden fruit.

I didn't come for that.

It figures.

You always were faithful.

And you?

Who'd have me?

Wait a minute.

Aren't you allergic to strawberries?

Didn't you almost die when you were little

from eating a strawberry?

I'm past all that.

See? No reaction.

No reaction at all.

- That's him.

- What?

Good morning. I'm Agent Parsons,

this is Agent Smith. We're with the FBI.

You're registered as Mr. Max Klein...

...1147 Varennes in San Francisco.

Is that correct?

You got me.

Can we come in?

Were you on a flight from San Francisco

to Houston that made an emergency...

Yes, I was.

Took a hike from the scene?

Just up and left?

- What time is it?

- 10:
00, Thursday morning.

You've been missing almost a day.

Missing?

What are you doing here?

You walked from the crash,

rented a car, drove to L. A...

Why?

They didn't need me anymore.

Need you for what?

Am I under arrest?

You haven't done anything.

Do you?

Do you know this man?

I'm Cindy Dickens...

...of InterCity Air and I'm here

to help get you home.

That's nice.

No one's taken me home

since the first grade.

I have tickets on AmTrak

to get you to San Francisco.

Your train leaves in an hour.

I want to fly.

I'm sorry?

You'll fly me back to San Francisco

for free...

...right?

Of course.

But when I told your wife the good news,

she said that...

...even before the unpleasant...

Crash.

Yes, right.

Even before that...

...you were afraid to fly.

I'd love to fly home on your airline,

but I've got a request.

Sir?

I want to go first class.

Super.

With our compliments, sir.

- Cockpit preparation?

- Completed.

Light test?

- Oxygen and interphone?

- Checked.

- Yaw damper?

- On.

Hydraulics?

On.

Sir, may I see your boarding pass?

Your seat is right down the aisle.

Is he on board?

I just made it.

I'm Bill Perlman.

Going home, right?

Glad to be going home, I bet.

You're a shrink.

That's right.

I specialize in the treatment

of post-traumatic stress disorder.

I wrote a book about it

and several airlines hired me...

We're pulling away from the gate.

...as a consultant to work

with crash survivors.

One of my perks is free tickets.

Seatbelt, I think you should put it on.

But I have to travel so much for work...

...that my idea of a vacation...

That's normal.

...is just to stay put.

I'm not scared.

But I would like another drink...

...when we're airborne.

I should say, if we're airborne.

- Mom, he's here! He's really here!

- I knew you were all right.

- I knew you were okay!

- We were so worried.

It's a miracle.

You're alive.

I knew I couldn't lose you.

- Coffee. Let's get coffee.

- Okay.

- Look at you. He's perfect.

- Yes, he is. He's just fine.

Come here.

Were you scared?

No.

Not at all.

Excuse me.

- I'm Steven Brillstein.

- Nan asked if he could wait here.

He's a lawyer.

I'm sorry to intrude, but...

...Mrs. Gordon's frustrated. The airline

can't make a definite identification.

Jeff's dead.

Oh, my God!

Jesus, Max!

Max isn't himself right now.

How do you know? We just met.

- I'm Bill Perlman.

- He's a therapist, works for the airline.

I'm here for you, Max.

If the airline pays your bills,

then it's a conflict of interest.

I have to warn Mr. Klein

that anything he says in your presence...

Is in confidence. It's my agreement.

Let's talk about that later.

Nan doesn't know.

She thinks if you're alive...

I'll tell her.

Can we speak privately?

This is inappropriate.

All right, out. Get out!

We should talk.

Max, relax.

- Are you okay?

- I'm fine.

I didn't hit him very hard.

I can't help you right now.

If you need anything, call me.

In fairness to Mrs. Gordon,

I should hear the details.

May I speak bluntly?

I'd prefer it.

You said you saw Mr. Gordon's dead body.

Let me give you a piece of advice.

When you speak to your lawyer...

...emphasize that you saw

your partner's dead body...

...and think hard about what else you saw.

It doesn't matter what you've said

to anybody so far.

With accidents there's a delayed reaction.

Memories of what happened

return gradually.

I know, I'm terrible to talk about it but...

...it's important that you remember...

...if you saw Mr. Gordon actually be killed.

Another thing to remember:

If he wasn't killed instantly...

...if he was in any pain...

You telling me how to lie

so I can get more money?

To be honest with you,

I wasn't thinking about you.

I was thinking about Mrs. Gordon.
