Basic characters: heroine, boyfriend, sailor, husband and wife, husband and wife.
Two parallel universe teams, replaced by A and B, respectively. The reason why it is considered to be two parallel universes, the biggest evidence is that the two groups of characters boarded the ship alternately from left to right. The main perspective, that is, team A boarded the ship from the left side of the direction of the ship; team B boarded the ship from the right side of the ship. Another proof is that, except for the heroine and the pseudo-boyfriend, everyone has two endings. For each additional heroine, there is an additional team. Once the team is destroyed, the next team will come up.

Team A heroine form:
1. Initial form 1 (A1)
2. Panic form 1 (A2)
3. Masked form 1 (A3)

Team B heroine form:
1. Initial form 2 (B1), the difference is that they are threatened , and kill the cold masked heroine.
2. [Furious state 2 (B2)] This state appears only once, and the content in the following [ ] is all speculation that is not shown in the movie.
3. Masked form 2 (B3), different from the heroine in form A, firstly, she received her own death threat when she came up, and secondly, she had already killed herself in the first form, so she was more cold-blooded.

Team A process:
First, board the ship from the left side of the cruise ship. After boarding, the hostess A1 picks up her key and arrives at the restaurant. Sailor A acts alone, couple A acts in pairs, boyfriend A and heroine A1 see "Go to the theater" on the mirror, boyfriend A and heroine A1 separate, and couple A is told to go to the theater. The heroine A1 returns to the restaurant, and after being attacked, accidentally kills the sailor A who was injured in the head (this sailor A is the sailor A who was injured by the heroine B2, and has seen the heroine of A3, so she attacks when they meet), the heroine A1 Hearing the sound of gunshots, he went to the theater and found that his boyfriend A was shot dead. At this time, a masked man appeared and killed couple A. After a fight, the heroine A1 shot the masked man into the sea.
At this time, the hostess saw Team B's boarding from the right side of the boat, A1 changed to A2, lost the key in a panic, was picked up by Team B, accidentally injured Sailor B, threatened the hostess B1 with a gun, placed Sailor B, listen At the sound of gunfire, he rushed to the theater and found that her boyfriend B1 was dead, wounding the grim masked man. When she went back, she found that Sailor B was missing and followed the blood into the sea. The heroine A1 went back and found that the couple B had been deceived. I saw the heroine B1 kill the cold masked man.
The new A-team is seen from a distance boarding from the left. A2 turns into A3. First, seeing that the heroine B2 accidentally injured sailor A in this round, he decided to kill everyone and prevent everyone from boarding the ship, then dispose of the corpses, leaving a blood book, telling couple A in this round to go to the theater and kill them Boyfriend A and couple A in this round were finally thrown into the sea by heroine A.

Team B process:
After boarding the ship from the right side of the ship, pick up the key of the heroine A2. Sailor B was accidentally injured by the heroine A2 and placed in the restaurant and disappeared (the blood stains extended to the sea), the heroine B1 was threatened by the heroine A2 and escaped . Boyfriend B was shot and killed by the grim masked man, couple B was deceived by the grim masked man, and then the heroine B1 killed the grim masked man.
The heroine B1 saw Team A boarding from the left, B1 changed to B2, [lost the key in a panic, picked up by Team A] accidentally injured sailor A and ran away. [The whole process of watching the new team A being killed by the heroine A3, and seeing the new heroine A1 knocking A3 into the sea, I understand that as long as the team is destroyed, it can be done again]
The heroine B2 sees the new team B from the right Side boarding, B2 becomes B3, [dispose of the body, leave a blood note, tell couple B of this round to go to the theater] Kill this round of male protagonist B and couple B, and then be killed by this round of female protagonist B1 .

Conclusion 1: Everyone in Team A was killed by the heroine of Team A, and in the end, he knocked himself into the sea. Everyone in Team B was killed by the heroine of Team B, including herself.
Conclusion 2: There are three female protagonists on the ship at the same time. In the third stage, the female protagonist will either fall into the sea or die. Every time a female protagonist dies or falls, the female protagonist on the ship will automatically go to the next stage. And come up with a new heroine. The beginning of the film is A1, A3, B2 (hidden) → the second round of the film A2, B3, B1 → A3, B2 (hidden), A1 → B3, A2, B1 infinite loop.
Conclusion 3: There are two difficult explanations. Whose body did the first heroine see in the second episode (in the movie), and why did it disappear? Second, how did it all start, because there are always two more female protagonists on board. It can only be said that none of us can remember how the dream began.

Well, I simply wrote down the process and passed the diagram.
