I don't know.

Okay.

Hey, hey...

Hey, you look familiar to me.

Yesterday was my

first flight. So...

You hungry?

No.

-You got any news, sheriff?

-No sign of 'em.

If they're out there

and not too badly hurt

we should have

at least three days.

Three days?

No, no, no, no.

We can't, we don't have

three days, s-she's pregnant.

We're doing the best

that we can.

Chel!

Chelsea!

Chelsea!

Chelsea?

Oh, oh, hey, Dillon.

I-i thought I might

run into you out here.

Who are you?

You with the sheriff's

department?

Oh, no, I'm a friend

of Chelsea's, frank sharp.

I run her web page.

What the hell are you

doing out here by yourself?

Well, I'm-I'm here

to find Chelsea, just like you.

You wanna come out here

where I can see you?

How did you get out?

What happened?

What are you doing there?

What happened?

Where have you been?

Oh, here.

Here, let me help you.

Where did you find the key?

-Uh!

-Evelyn?

Come on. Up, up.

After you went to sleep,

i went back to my bedding

and I found it was just

lying there on the floor.

Isn't it lucky?

Why would someone

just leave it there?

Who knows?

Oh, you thirsty? I found

some water in the kitchen.

Where did you go?

Oh, I went to look around

the house. It's empty.

I couldn't find

any phones either.

-Did you go outside at all?

-Yeah.

There's nothing

but trees and bushes.

Alright, we need to go

get help.

No, we need to go now

before he comes back.

-Who?

-Whoever put us here.

You can't go outside.

What if he's out there?

-You don't know.

-I don't care.

Sit down.

Can't you see you're hurt?

I mean, what are you gonna do?

Hobble around in the dark?

-I need to get to a doctor.

-Well, okay.

Look.

I need to get to a doctor.

Okay. Okay.

It's gonna be okay.

That's an old one.

I used to be a fan.

Well, see,

i told you we'd be fine.

Don't move,

I'll be right back.

Wait, wait, wait.

Be careful, okay?

Okay.

-They found us.

-What?

-Yeah.

-What are you...

-Who, the cops?

-No, the neighbor.

He saw me walking

around the woods

and he came to see

if we're alright.

I told him about our situation.

He's gonna go call for help.

-Oh, my god. Oh, god.

-Yeah. Yeah.

Where are we? Did he say?

Yeah, it seems we're just

a few miles away from the crash.

-He knew about the crash?

-Yeah.

Did he know about the others?

I'm so sorry.

He said that

they're all dead.

Oh, Jesus.

He didn't have a phone

or anything?

Oh, my god, I...

I was so excited

i didn't even ask. I'll...

Wait, where are you going?

I'm just gonna go see

if I can catch up to him.

That's okay.

Just, just stay with me.

I'll be right back, I promise.

Okay, be safe.

I will.

I'm sorry, he got away.

Are you hungry?

I found this in the kitchen.

Thanks.

Uh, how's your leg?

-Not good.

-Let me see.

Okay. Well, okay...

Can you see it?

Yeah. Oh, you're gonna

need some stitches.

-Yeah.

-Oh, I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

Here.

Oh, no thanks, I'm fine.

Come on. Have half.

No, no, I ate something

downstairs.

Hmm.

I still, I just don't understand

how we got here.

Well, that doesn't matter

anymore, does it?

I mean, all that matters

is that we survived

and we have a new

chance at life.

Maybe you can use this

to relaunch your career.

It's the last thing

on my mind.

I just want a hot shower.

Oh, there's a bathroom here.

Do you want,

maybe I can carry you over?

I will wait.

You should seriously

consider it though.

The shower?

No. Your music.

After this, I'm sure people

would wanna hear from you again.

Most people don't value

what they have

until they think

they may have lost it.

You said

you used to be a fan.

I don't like

the direction you've taken.

In what way?

You know, your songs,

they used to be passionate

and exciting and they, they took

you out of your problems and...

I don't know,

now they're sad.

Uh, what, are you depressed

or something?

Just how I felt

when I was writing 'em.

Yeah, but that's the problem.

Art is about uplifting people.

And no one wants to hear

about your sadness.

Most people aren't happy,

they're miserable

and they need something

to keep us going.

Your songs did that for me

but now they don't.

Sorry.

You can't please everyone,

right?

No, you can. You...

I'm just gonna go downstairs

and wait for the paramedics.

Just yell

if you need something.

No, no. I'm sorry.

Was that rude?

Look, it's not your fault.

It's just the situation.

Can you stop that, Evelyn?

You're making me nervous.

My mother taught me

that you always

have to keep your things

in order.

An organized mind requires

an organized life.

You should try it sometime.

We just had a plane crash.

And we're in someone's house

in the middle of the woods.

I think it's okay.

Okay, why are you so cynical?

All you've done

since I've met you is whine.

I just don't understand

what's taking so long.

-Be patient.

-We've been waiting all night.

We waited all, that's it.

They should have been here

hours ago.

I'm leaving. Ah.

Are you gonna help me

or not?

-No, sit down.

-Let's go. Come on.

No, sit back down!

-Evelyn?

-Hmm.

-What?

-Did you do this?

No.

No, it's not like that.

It's not what you think. I...

I, I saved your life.

So you, you chained me up?

I was afraid that you'd

wander off and hurt your leg

while I was asleep so...

You've been lying to me?

I didn't, I wanted to tell you

but i-i-i panicked.

Are the paramedics coming?

Please, just give me

a chance to explain.

Yes, please explain.

You remember how you said...

That you thought

i looked familiar?

I'm your spiritual twin,

Chelsea.

I'm your soulmate.

What is going on?

Don't you recognize me?

I'm angel twin '91.

We grew up together

in Mooresville.

We used to be best friends.

The problem is they put

a chip in your head

to erase me from your memory.

I used to have one too

but my mother removed it.

Why would they wanna

erase you from my memory?

'Cause I wanna

save you from them.

Who are you saving me from?

From them.

From, from your boyfriend,

your manager, your parents.

They, all of them.

They are in it together.

They wanna keep you

all for themselves

but I won't let them.

I'm not gonna lose you.

Did you crash the plane?

I didn't mean for you

to get hurt.

But the storm,

it made everything harder.

Just give me a chance. I, I,

you'll see it's for the best.

-Okay.

-Yeah. Okay, it's okay.

-It's all okay, okay?

-Okay.

So listen, so now

it's time to take me home.

So let's get me to a doctor,

come on.

-Yeah, you can.

-No, I can't.

Yeah, you can.

Let's help me.

-I can't!

-Let's help me get to a doctor.

I can't! Can't you see,

i did all of this for you?

Thank you. Thank you.

It's-it's just...

This is not what I want

so please take me home.

Stop! Stop whining!

You're gonna do what I say

and you're gonna like it

because there is no one

coming here to save you.

Do you hear me?

It's just you and me now.

So you better be nice
