Nobody?
Didn't notice it?
Didn't think it confused the foreshadowing?
Thought it was consistent or not?

This question was already posted above, but I don't see a response.
For anybody who has not seen the film, don't bother, the question won't even make sense.
For those who have seen the film, do you have any ideas? Did you notice it while viewing? Did it seem inconsistent?

I don't have an answer for this. He says that he saw the attack flash, and was driving recklessly. If this is true, it argues he is telling the truth about the reason they are in the bunker. But if true, why did she not see the flash as well, prior to the accident? If his account is not true, the flash did not occur prior to the abduction, so how to explain the ending? Mere coincidence? The mother of all coincidence? The other coincidence is the possibility that the bunker was completed enough just in time for such a major event.


I did not consider the ending to be Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, but the paradox I just mentioned has me puzzled for the moment.



I was able to conjure a weak answer, but I still welcome others.

1. The flash happened, but after the accident. 2.He reversed them in his story to her.
The weakness is that she would still know that she had not witnessed the flash, before the accident, so she would know he was lying about that part. What did he hope to gain by inventing this sequence? warp her mind, brainwash her?
