(9 votes)

Lisa stabs Jackson in the throat with a pen as the plane is landing and makes her escape. She steals his phone and an SUV and calls Cynthia to tell her to pull the fire alarm and get Charles Keefe and his family out of the room before something happens to them. Cynthia does what she said and they all make it. Then Lisa races home to see if her dad is okay. The killer isn't in his car and she looks up and sees him in front of her house. She runs him over with her car. Her dad comes out and they hug and talk and he said he called 911, then Jackson shows up and knocks her dad out and a chase through the house ensures with her throwing things at him and out smarting him several times. While he's chasing her 911 calls back and she tells them he's in the house. He jumps out from behind the door with a knife and they fight and he pushes her down the stairs. She sees the dead killers gun and gets it and fires at Jackson, which makes him drop his knife but then she losses the gun and he's after her again. Then her dad comes in and shoots him and kills him. The police are on their way and they're all okay. Everyone lives. The film ends on a light note with Lisa at the hotel telling off a rude couple and laughing with Cynthia.

Continuity mistake: When Lisa is on board the plane, she is wearing stiletto heels (best seen when she is collapsing in the bathroom). However, when she is running through the airport, she is wearing flat shoes. This is most easily seen when she comes of the transporter belt, when she trips and one of her feet swings into the air. Later, when she kicks Jack on the stairs of her house, she is wearing stiletto heels again.

Trivia: When in the plane's bathroom, in an early take Cillian Murphy threw Rachel McAdams so hard against the bathroom wall that he knocked her unconscious. If you look at the shot used in the movie where he throws her against the wall, you can see his hand in her hair protecting her head so he didn't hurt her again. Not a mistake, as he's not trying to knock her out in the film, just rough her up, but worth looking for.

Question: This just interests me, but how on earth did Jackson manage to get a ticket right next to Lisa on the plane so quickly, considering that Keefe changed his plans at the last minute, and they didn't know Lisa's grandma was going to die, and she'd be taking the last plane back to Florida?

Answer: These are very tech-savvy terrorists. Not only would they be watching Keefe, but also Lisa, who is integral to their assassination plot. The assassins would have been monitoring their every move, intercepting cell phone calls, hacking into the hotel's and the airline's computers, and so on. It is unknown how Jackson got a seat right next to Lisa, but as it's a late-night flight, there would likely be fewer passengers and he could have managed to be seated next to her or somehow got the airline to switch him with another passenger.
