Note that this article is a spoiler for the whole drama! And I heard that it might be released in China, so friends who haven't watched it infiltrate!

Colter woke up from his sleep and found himself sitting and driving towards On the Chicago train, opposite him was an unfamiliar woman with long black hair, wearing a blue dress, "Thank you for your advice, I think your advice is very good..."
Colter felt as if he had fallen again. In another dream, because everything around is unfamiliar. He only remembered that he was a pilot of the US Air Force, performing missions in Afghanistan, and then... the plane crashed.
From the mouth of this woman named Christina, he learned his identity in this world, Sean, a history teacher. He came to the toilet in the train in horror and carefully looked into the mirror. It was clearly another face!
When he and Christina were arguing about their identity, the train missed a tanker car. With a loud noise, the train exploded, igniting the tanker car next to it, and the whole train fell into flames.
Fragmented fragments flashed in Colter's mind, and then he found himself tied up in a cold cabin. In front of his eyes was a display screen with a blonde woman in military uniform. "I'm Goodwin. Please reply when I receive it."
"Where am I now?"
"We will explain to you later, you need to enter the previous clip to find the bomber."
It was another fragmented flashback. After that, Colter found himself in that dream again, "Thank you for your advice, I think your advice is very good..." Christina repeated the same thing, the conductor, the funny actor Passengers, students with backpacks, everything repeats itself again.
With another explosion, Colter broke away from the fragment and returned to the airtight chamber again.
The same plot repeats itself again and again.
"What the hell is going on? I need to explain to complete this task!"
At this time, a bearded man with a cane was inserted from the screen. Although he was not in uniform, he was obviously a military technical expert.
"There is a memory section called the source code in the human brain, which can store memory fragments of about 8 minutes.
" "This morning, on a train bound for Chicago, an explosion occurred and the entire train was killed. "
So we extracted the memory from the brain fragments of the victims and used this to reconstruct the plot between the explosions."
"We inject this plot into your memory and want you to find the perpetrator.
" "Then I Is it dead? ! "Colter asked.
"You were on a mission in Afghanistan when the plane was attacked and crashed. Now only part of your brain is alive. "
Then what is this cabin?" "
That's also the scene we constructed in your memory." "
Colter collapsed completely.
"Then since the explosion has occurred, what use is it for you to find him?" "
Because he is also planning a bigger explosion on the city of Chicago, and we must find him before that." "
Your efforts will save thousands of lives!" "
During the round trip, Colter found the
bomber and told all the military information. In reality, the bomber drove a white passenger car full of bombs and was intercepted at the highway checkpoint. Come down.
"Colter, you saved the lives of thousands of people!" On the other side of the screen, Goodwin couldn't help but say. At the same time, people in the military began to celebrate their achievements.
"But I'm dead
, am I ?" "Goodwin, I want to ask you, who is also a soldier, for something as a soldier." Colter said.
Goodwin dismissed his colleagues.
"I would like to ask you to unplug the life support system from my body, so that I will live forever in the world of source code."
Facing the conflict between morality and military order, Goodwin chose morality.
She sneaked into the storage room where Colter's body was placed and opened the cold storage cabinet. In the cabinet, Colter was naked, with his eyes closed, wading peacefully. Wires stuck into Colter's head like a wriggling bug, his mouth twitching, his lower body. . . Has been amputated!
Goodwin pressed the button to turn off the life support system.
In another world. . .
Colter found the bomber and handcuffed him to the rail of the train. He used his cell phone to send the message to Goodwin (Goodwin in this world, not the one before), and notified the police. The explosion was stopped.
"You seem to be different from before." Christina said.
"Really. I'm a new self!" Colter said. Yes, he is no longer Colter, his identity in this world is, history teacher, Sean.
"I like you better now."
"I have a question, what would you do if there were only the last few minutes left in the world." Colter asked.
Colter knows that his time is running out, because if this is just a virtual programming world, then after 8 minutes, all the plot will come to an abrupt end.
Christina was stunned, not knowing how to answer.
Colter, leaning forward, kissed her softly. Time is frozen in the last second of these eight minutes.
. . . . . . .
The train started shaking, Colter realized that the time hadn't stopped, and his watch continued to move.
This is more than just a program. Each piece of source code will derive a new world.
In this world, Goodwin received a text message from Colter, oh no, Sean. She looked at Colter in the storage cupboard suspiciously. Then, he hurriedly reported to the police. It turned out that the police had already taken a step ahead of her and caught the bomber.
"It seems that there is no need to use the source code plan." said the technical director of the world's beard.
In this world, Sean continued Colter's memory, holding his girlfriend Christina's hand and walking into the bright sunshine of Chicago.

1. Why does the protagonist find the blaster and stop the explosion? Hasn’t the explosion already happened?
Yes, the explosion has already happened, this is a fact of the real world. The protagonist finds the bomber in the source code world to prevent him from plotting a bigger explosion in the real world.
Because the identities of the source code world and the real world bombers are the same.
2. Why is it certain that every piece of source code will extend a parallel world?
Two reasons:
1) Every time the protagonist enters the world of source code, he will encounter a little different plot. One passenger dripped coffee on his shoes. Christina didn't wipe him the first time, but took out a paper towel the second time.
This means that the source code world is not just a fixed code, but an extended parallel world.
2) Every time the protagonist returns to the hatch from the source code, death is the ending. Instead of disappearing from the world of source code after eight minutes.
There was a period when he and Christina got off the train and tracked a suspect, but they fell down on the platform, was run over by the roaring train, and returned to the cabin door. If he had not been run over by the train, he would continue to live in this world with Christina, and would not return unless he died.
Therefore, some people say, "If you stop at the last kiss, it will be perfect." This conclusion is not valid, because the previous hint has already determined the direction of the plot.
3. In the final ending, the protagonist sent a text message to Goodwin in another world. Why would Goodwin receive it in reality?
That's not Goodwin in reality, it's just Goodwin in a parallel source code world where the explosion didn't happen.
