First, it is about the original and offline universes. I disagree with the claim that the two worlds are happening in parallel! I feel that once the offline universe (the world where there is no causal relationship, a world where there is no cause against the laws of nature) is created for some reason, the primary universe (the world where everything has a cause) stops. That is to say, the actual events are all in the same universe, and the only thing that changes is what we call it and the fourth dimensional space we are in - time, the position of this coordinate that is not easy to change at ordinary times.
From the film: the point where the original universe stops/the point where the offline universe starts is the daytime of the 1st day when the protagonist who is riding a bicycle on the road and preparing to go home wakes up at the beginning of the film. This is the initial point, and the offline universe begins. Note that the setting of the starting point in the book is bound to occur. Or maybe it was caused by occasional mishandling by someone above this world level. (Similar to the setting of The Matrix) Because the engine of the 30th, which fell for no reason in the early morning of the 2nd, will fall to the room where the protagonist is, so he is the most relevant person and was selected as the recipient of the living body.
So, the protagonist rode home, and the engine fell on the 30th at night (whether the protagonist was killed or not at this time, the reason for the engine could not be explained), plus various reasons that may occur within the deadline, the protagonist did not serve this within the deadline. From the engine that will hit his room on the 30th on the 2nd plus the reason, the deadline is approaching, the unstable offline universe is destroyed, and the time returns to the initial point. Due to the failure of the living recipient's mission, it can only be generated again. Offline universe, until the relic is sent back (find the reason for the engine without cause), the other side has been in an infinite loop.
Based on the above explanation, from the beginning to the end of the film, what the protagonist is really smashed into is the process of successfully returning the sacred object for the last time in the loop to find the reason for the engine to fall. This is at least the second offline universe cycle experienced by the protagonist (because the first time is supposed to happen, there must be no reason for the engine to fall): The protagonist wakes up on the road and smiles (there is a vague feeling inside, maybe A different future. Because he also has only some remnants of memories or dreams), then rides home, wakes up at night to see Frank, faints, and wakes up from the golf course...successful enough to send the engine Enter the wormhole, travel through time through the wormhole, let the engine on the 30th come to the 2nd, that is, return the sacred object, close the offline universe, and return to the starting point to start the original universe. Because no matter whether the world knows it or not, the engine on the 30th has a reason to hit the protagonist's room on the 2nd (it doesn't matter whether the protagonist will be killed or not, I personally think).
The above process is exactly the memory of the last successful experience of the protagonist when he is finally about to be smashed. At this time, because of this inexplicable and destined task, he sees it through the process of returning the holy relic in the super-long section of the film. In this world, he chose to die calmly. The engine fell for a reason and killed the protagonist. Everyone woke up from the dream and started their own lives.
In addition, for the people on the plane on the 30th in the offline universe, the plane crash without the engine is inevitable, because the entire offline universe will be destroyed, come back to the initial point 1, and start a new offline universe (the protagonist does not have Mission accomplished), maybe in the new offline universe people will have different choices, different people take this plane, but nothing will change This is what happens in the unstable offline universe, it's either a repeat or a return The original universe at the initial point (the last time the protagonist successfully completes the mission and returns the relic) continues to live. For anything in the offline universe will not affect life after returning to the original universe. So on the 30th day of the original universe, what should happen is what happens, and that plane may or may not have an accident (even if there is a duplicate engine, it is a mystery that the world cannot explain, after all, the plane that lost the engine is in the offline universe. The plane, the relic is the only evidence that the offline universe has existed in the original universe, that is, the evidence in the original universe of the plane that crashed in the offline universe is its lost engine, which smashed itself to death. The protagonist who was crushed to death is completely different from the engine of the plane in the original universe on the 30th, and has nothing to do with it), the relatives of the protagonist may or may not take this plane...
