Clues given at the beginning of the film:
1. LEE and BETH talk about the vase in the kitchen, LEE said it was bought from a cheap store in galaxy
2. AMIR is bringing LAURIE, LAURIE is a sexy vixen who likes to wear tights
3. The heroine EM suspects that her boyfriend KEVIN and LAURIE have an affair, and complains about his weird smile.
4. BETH is a drug addict who is recovering from drugs
. Gives a hint to the theme
1. EM talks about the comet incident in 1923, a woman killed her husband only to find that her husband was by her side.
2. LAURIE did not wear wild clothes, but made others seem indifferent. LEE's boyfriend MIKE is an actor and says LAURIE taught yoga before, LAURIE says she doesn't and works in Silicon Valley. EM said that KATHERINE competed for dominance in the dance world by her own courage and strength, but she has withdrawn from people's attention, while LAURIE said that she had only heard of KATHERINE in the dance world. (Actually, this is enough to prove that LAURIE is a crossing dog)
3. The power went out. The eight people lit candles and took out blue light sticks, and went out to watch the night scene together. Came back and saw a broken glass, and a voice said I didn't even remember there was a glass here. BETH's boyfriend, HUGH, suggested that he get in touch with his brother and ask AMIRE to go with him to a bright house two blocks away. AMIR said when he set off that he couldn't find his shoes and borrowed BETH's shoes. LAURIE complained that it was AMIR's style. (The eight people traveled together to the homes of the other eight people)
4. There were six people left, and the side door of the house was knocked once. After a long time, the two finally came back. AMIR brought back a box with photos of everyone in it and was numbered. There was a photo of AMIR in the box that the eight people did not have (there is a time difference between parallel universes). EM wrote down everyone's number with a red marker and told KEVIN that it was her handwriting.
5. Everyone was puzzled, and the four of them went out to find out. Those who stay at home are LEE, AMIR, HUGH.BETH. When I came back, I met four people who looked exactly like them but with red light sticks in their hands. When they got home, AMIR and HUGH had a very strange reaction. In fact, EM mentioned that there is a black area in the middle area, which is like entering a gambling table. (So the four of them returned to someone else's house, where LEE was taking a nap) BETH said that HUGH's younger brother had a book in his car, and HUGH and KEVIN went to pick it up.
6. Mike becomes very disturbed and intends to kill himself in the other room. Kevin tried his best to stop him from asking what he saw when he just went out. In the end, it was unanimously deduced that BETH was taking a nap in another room, so there would be no such conversation. MIKE said that just taking the book back would solve all the problems. Then came up with the idea of blackmailing himself.
7. LEE woke up and said that he was dizzy after taking LSD. Everyone suspected that BETH put medicine in food to cause collective hallucinations. BETH said that LEE only drank 1/4 and had to take it all in order to have hallucinations. Then LEE and BETH repeat the dialogue at the beginning of the film, and the wary EM shows a look of fear.
8. The AMIR and HUGH of this house originally came across, and they want to take away the box and book. Turns out the box photos for this room were not numbered. The two people who have passed through have already experienced the numbering issue, so they decided to take the box away, so as to avoid everything that happened later. MIKE is back, of course this is not the previous MIKE but the alcoholic MIKE. The clue is in the conversation with KEVIN. KEVIN said he only went for 5 minutes, while MIKE said he went for three quarters of an hour.
9. Everyone begins to realize that as long as they go out, they will fall into other people's universes.
10. LEE and BETH talk in the kitchen. This LEE's MIKE career is not going well and he drinks heavily. It was originally said that BETH, who was detoxified, took 1/4 of the hallucinogen, so it was not the original BETH at all. The glass LEE washed hasn't broken yet. The director reminds again that this is another house.
11. KEVIN and LAURIE crossed the line, BETH saw and told EM.
12. The house finally had a power outage. Hugh's car window was smashed, and everyone said there was nothing inside. It seems that this BETH is a book without HUGH's younger brother or the book is not there at all. Then someone said that everyone should not go too far apart.
To sum up here, at this time, only EM, LAURIE, and KEVIN are the ones who know each other. Even if they have crossed, they have crossed together.
13. EM left the team and went to Kevin's car to find the ring they bought at the street stall and put it on. KEVIN knocked on the door. EM asked what he saw in HUGH's car. Kevin looked puzzled. They found out that they were not the person they knew, and then moved away.
14. EM went back to the house and told KEVIN in the room that she found the ring. KEVIN responded coldly, as if he had no memory of this ring. The witty EM certainly found out. (EM should have come to a brand new house again)
15. HUGH and AMIR with blue light sticks came back and told the same story before. But this HUGH sticks to a regular Bundy, not a Bubendi. So the logic is that HUGH and AMIR crossed into someone else's house, another LEE put a normal Bondi on the blue HUGH, and this LEE put a Bubondi on the red HUGH.
16. Then everyone figured out a way to mark their house. Everyone rolls the dice to give themselves a number, then picks an item at random and puts it in the box. At this time, AMIR took the photos that the heroine saw before. If there are people in this room who the original heroine knew then they will know that this photo of AMIR is a duplicate of the previous one. The heroine EM found the book and found that the first column number was written with a green marker, the second column was just written with a blue marker, and the third column was recorded with a red marker before. The witty heroine began to check whether the person in the room was the person who was there before. The hostess asked everyone to verify the number that was coded when they got the box and the green writing on the book. It was found that only LEE and BETH were originally in the house. And KEVIN should be his little friend. But everyone knows that KEVIN is not his own KEVIN has been confirmed with the ring before. So just a coincidence.
17. MIKE from afar came to blackmail himself. Unfortunately, HUGH found him, and everyone quarreled. MIKE diverts the subject with none of us here. HUGH took out a phone that didn't break and confirmed it. Everyone started asking each other what was the random item in the first box they got, and found that the items they said were different.
18. Another Mike with a green glow stick came to kill this Mike. LAURIE is hyperphobic.
19. The house was a mess, EM walked out of the door helplessly, and saw a note written by HUGH on the back of the door, and paid attention to the torn marks. The house had not been pasted with a note before, again implying that the heroine Cross again.
20. The hostess walked out the door and opened the box with random items that were monkey dolls. Then she saw many, many unhappy scenes. She had had enough and started looking for harmonious households. EM is trying to kill EM in this house and replace her.
21. EM suffocated EM. While EM and the other seven people were watching the comet, EM didn't die and hid in the toilet to drink water and try to wake up. EM knocked her out with the toilet lid again, and then suddenly passed out in the living room.
22. After getting up, BETH came out of the bathroom and said that the other EM was missing, and EM continued to walk outside and found that the car window was smashed and the book was still inside. Indicates that this harmonious household knows nothing about quantum physics. So when the real EM called KEVIN, KEVIN said it was so weird. The film ends in KEVIN's suspicious eyes.
Personally, I think this is a sci-fi film that can be widely accepted by the public and has a relatively strict logic. It is not like the long and chaotic plot of memory fragments. Of course, there are also great gods who can understand it. All in all, very good, I recommend everyone to watch it.
