Passengers Page #3

All right.

- Bye, Eric.

- Something was in your mouth.

Bye.

'You have no messages.'

Are you looking for this?

Yep.

It's so beautiful.

Thank you.

And you'd look beautiful in it, I bet.

I don't know.. not sure.

I'll just fold it.

Oh, okay, thank you.

Sure.

Your key.

Yeah.

- A lover's key.

- No.

No, no, he's an acquaintance.

An acquaintance who gives away his key,

where do I sign up?

Actually, he's a patient, sort of.

Do you like him?

No.

No?

Look me in the eye and say that.

I don't like him, he's a patient.

So, even if I liked him,

it'd constitute a conflict of interests...

- it's an ethical..

- Right...

- and then you'd have to stop seeing him.

- Right.

And you'd have to put him

out of your mind.

- Yeah.

- Right. I've lived like that.

Like what?

Cautious, missing opportunities.

Well, thanks so much for this.

Have a good night.

You, too, just.. just..

Yeah?

Spread your wings.

Life's a moment.. just...

it's done.

Oh, it is. Right.

Have a good night.

[Knocking]

Yeah? I'm coming.

Eric?

What's going on?

What's wrong?

Oh? Uh... nothing.

How do you know where I live?

It's in here.

You left it in my place.

I thought you might need it

for tomorrow.

Sorry 'bout that.

No, it's okay.

So, are you.. are you okay?

Are you gonna invite me in.. or.. ?

No.

Got somebody in there?

No.

I mean, it's not any of your business.

Anyway, this isn't my normal office hours.

I'm not a patient.

No, you're just a creepy guy standing

at my door in the middle of night.

A lovely man. Intriguing.

Okay, good night.

You don't think so?

I'm not gonna stand here

and debate your loveliness.

How about the intriguing part?

Good night.

(sigh)

[Knocking]

Oh, hi.

He's very handsome.

Okay.

Let's get started.

Why aren't they here?

C'mon, you always have

some kind of feel-good theory.

What's your theory for this?

Why are they missing?

I'm so sorry. Would you mind

excusing me for a moment?

Okay, go.

What are you doing here, Mr. Arkin?

I'm interested in

the health of the passengers.

You're interested in

what they remember.

Yes, of course I am.

You're patients are highly susceptible

to external influences right now.

So, you just be sure you haven't been

feeding them your own theories.

Have you been able to confirm

that the accident was human error?

It's always a human error, doctor,

whichever way you turn it.

Someone didn't work hard enough,

or well enough, or cared enough...

someone made a mistake.

And in this case, it was an..

overworked pilot.

You're blaming your woes to a dead man.

Stay away. I mean it.

Claire!

Eric?

Hey!

Eric! Uh.. Eric.. okay...

stay away from the edge, okay?

What are you doing?

Just..

Come on up!

Uhm...

C'mon!

I'm not so good with heights.

(Chuckling)

Are you all right?

No.. I.. I'm good. I'm just fine here.

C'mon, come here. C'mon.

Eric! Eric, stop it!

I'm sorry. Okay. Here we go.

Do you have me?

Oh, God. Jesus.

- Stay there.

- I'm good.

We can't seem to stay away

from each other, can we?

So, what's your sign?

(Laughing)

I was almost married once.

I bailed two days before the wedding.

That's...

that's terrible.

Yeah, it is.

It was very painful for her.

I was scared.

You know what's scary about commitment?

Your life becomes real.

It's not a plan.

It's not what you hope for.

It's real.

Your turn.

C'mon, give me something.

Fair is fair. Tit for tat.

There is nothing to tell.

I've never been close.

Sometimes, they left me.

Sometimes, I left them.

There is no sob story.

Not really.

That was very you.

Concise, yet vague.

I'm not like that.

I like clarity.

Clarity for Claire.

I'm so glad I'm amusing you.

C'mon, this is miraculous, isn't it?

We're both sitting here?

That crash.

It's like being born again.

Eric?

Eric! Oh, my God, Eric!

What?

You, bastard?!

You, fu--

(Chuckling) C'mon.

Yeah.

I'm not getting on that thing.

Why not?

You're not wearing a helmet?

For crying out aloud, c'mon.

Why did you come here tonight?

Too fast for you?

No.

Uh, so do we need safety vests?

There might be safety vests in there.

Aren't they called life preservers?

Ah, perfect.

So, uh.. this is a nice boat.

It is, isn't it?

Yeah, how long have you had her?

Oh, it's not mine.

Then whose is it?

I have no idea.

What?

- What?

- Watch your head.

Eric.

Can you drive a boat?

Yeah.

Great, that's wonderful.

Wanna take it?

Oh, no.

C'mon.

(Laughing)

Follow the moon.

What are you doing?

Going for a swim.

What? Are you serious.. it's freezing.

No, well.. yeah,

will be freezing for a moment.

Then, it'll be okay.

You're just looking

for thrills to feel alive...

it's a normal reaction.

Eric, is it cold?

Okay, I'm not falling for this again.

Eric! Seriously, it's not funny.

Stop it!

Eric! Eric! I'm coming,

I'm coming.

Eric! Eric!

You've scared the hell out of me!

I thought you were drowning.

No.

Why are you wearing your clothes?

Did you jump in to save me?

No.

Come here. Where are you going?

C'mon, come back.

Stay a while.

See. It's not so cold.

No, it's not.

It's fine.

(Chuckling)

Oh, God.

What?

I'm a mess.

- Too late, Claire.

- For what?

To scare me away.

Eric...

the first time we met,

you asked me if I had a sister.

Do you have one?

Yeah.

Yeah, you seemed to know that.

Maybe, is that, bossy,

older sister thing you've got--

Not.. you're..

Anyway, Emma's older.

What is she like?

She's an activist, a risk-taker.

She's a really good mom.

She's got many things.

Ah...

so, what's the problem?

She called me a coward,

and said that I was wasting my life.

I said some pretty horrible things to her.

Stuff I shouldn't have said,

stuff that I--

Anyway, we haven't spoken in months.

Whatever was said...

it's not worth it.

[Doorbell rings]

[Doorbell rings]

Emma?

[Bird chirping]

Who lives here, Claire?

Are you following me?

Is spending nights with your patients

regular part of your therapy?

Your credibility is on a shaky ground.

Perry.

Claire.

Perry.. ah.. hm...

there is a man

following me and my patient.

Two men, actually.

Arkin from the airline...

and another one, one of them thinks..

that.. I mean.. one of my patients...

Norman, he thinks the other one is

from the airline, and...

I don't know, there is some kind

of cover-up going on...

and two of my patients are missing.

Claire, Claire, slow down.

Who's missing?

Norman and Dean.

They've been missing sessions.

They're missing,

or they missed sessions?

I'm not sure.

Well, just because they're not at

the sessions doesn't mean...

they're in trouble.

And patients fall in and out

of the desire for treatment...

all the time, isn't that common?

Absolutely, right.

What about Eric Clark?

What?

How is he doing?

Oh.. good.

He.. he's... responding...

I don't know, I don't know.

Claire, what's going on?

I crossed the line with him.

An ethical line.

Our relationship is more personal

than it should be.

(sigh) More personal than
