Kamikaze (2021) s01e03 Episode Script

Flight Mode

I've been flying nonstop for two weeks,
yet nothing has happened.
I did not crash.
And I did not give up.
The world's longest flight is from
Singapore to Newark, New Jersey.
It's about 19 hours.
But more flights bring
more opportunities. Of crashing.
Most crashes happen within
the same 9 minutes of the flight.
The first 3 minutes after take-off.
And the last 6 minutes of the landing
before the plane stops.
My family's plane crashed mid-air.
I don't know how my trip will end
- Beautiful.
- Yes.
I'm going to visit my grandson
who moved to Canada two years ago.
And what about you?
Where are you going?
I'm just flying,
watching the earth from above.
Do you remember to write
or call home once in a while?
You know how parents worry.
I call my dad at his office.
He's a very busy lawyer.
But when I call he always
answers his phone right away.
Hi, darling.
And then he just wants
to chit chat about
So, where are you?
what I'm doing and how I am
and stuff like that.
Just to get a little break.
It's so strange.
I'm happy to hear that.
It's strange when you're not
When you're not at home.
It's wonderful.
- Do you believe in God?
- Which one are we talking about?
Just the concept of God.
Do you feel he is there or she?
I've never needed a God.
Dear God
Although I don't know
how dear you are.
I need your help.
You and I need to make a deal.
You have never helped me, but I've
also never needed your help before.
This is your chance. I'd prefer
that you make the plane crash.
Just take my life.
You are able to do something
like that, right?
A plane crash with only one fatality
would look good on your resume.
Even yours.
Do you need help, ma'am?
- What?
- You were crying.
Am I?
Were you having a bad dream?
- Do you suffer from aviophobia?
- From what?
Fear of crashing. Come with me.
Thank you so much.
I miss summer.
Summer. Well, soon it's spring time.
What do you think happens to us
when we die?
I'm Catholic so I believe in the Father
Almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
And I hope I'm going to heaven
when the day comes.
Right here, between heaven and earth.
Here I'm neither dead nor alive.
Sorry, I just need to lift your tray,
thank you.
Sorry, ma'am? Excuse me?
I need you to prepare for landing,
please.
Thank you.
- Are you finished with this?
- Yes.
I'll take that. If you could put your
tray away that would be great. Thanks.
Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to London Heathrow airport.
Please remain seated until the fastened
seatbelt sign has been turned off.
You may now make or receive calls
as well as use data services on your
"CONSTANCE: WHERE ARE YOU??
WRITE ME!!"
When it's safe to leave your seat, take
care when opening the overhead lockers.
Items may have moved
and can fall out and cause injuries.
Please make sure you have
all of your personal belongings.
Smoking is not permitted until you've
reached the designated area.
If your journey ends
here at Heathrow,
please follow the yellow signs through
arrivals upon leaving the aircraft.
Thank you.
Hi. Excuse me?
I have a ticket with this plane to Paris
in one hour and twenty minutes.
- Could I be allowed to stay onboard?
- I'm afraid not.
I checked in online.
And I only carry hand luggage.
Look, I'm very sorry, madam,
but it's not possible for our airline
to go against
international security guidelines.
Okay?
Madam, I need you to leave.
Madam, I need you
to leave the plane now.
If I have to call security you won't
be getting that next flight at all.
It's the third day, and I
I have just a little less
than two water bottles left.
But I've decided not to drink it
as that'll just prolong the agony.
I guess
So that's the plan now.
Like this.
A disproportionate number
of plane crashes happen in Africa.
This is due to unstable societies,
old planes and poor maintenance.
And challenging weather conditions.
Welcom to Kemembe Air.
We hope you enjoy your flight.
You knew that very well, Dad.
Even so you brought Mum and Tom
onto a rattling domestic flight.
your seat to the upright position.
In the unlikely case of an emergency,
oxygen masks will automatically
The text you sent when you realized
the plane was crashing
What were you thinking?
I'm sorry.
Can I hold your hand?
Now I know that you knew
you didn't stand a chance.
Yet, amidst the panic, you were
prescient enough to think of me.
Think about my reaction.
Think about how my life would be.
It's devastating knowing that.
WE'RE CRASHING. LOVE YOU.
DO WHAT YOU WANT. DAD.
Mum.
Dad.
And Tom.
See you soon.
We apologise for the bad turbulence.
We are now flying
into calmer weather.
You know, when you look
at the statistics
it's absolutely ridiculous
to be afraid of flying.
You'd have to fly every day
for 29 years
before it would be more likely
to end up in a fatal plane crash.
Right now I don't know whether
to believe in statistics or in God.
Dear God.
Eat shit.
This is an anouncement for passengers
to Singapore. We start boarding.
Miss Julie Holm Fosberg,
please go to gate 24 A
where your flight is boarding
to Singapore.
Gates are closing soon.
Paralyzed.
Frozen.
Last call for Julie Holm Fosberg,
gates are closing.
Sorry, ma'am, but you don't happen
to be Julie Holm Forsberg?
Julie Victoria Holm-Forsberg
is canceled.
Annulled.
Out of service.
And alone.
Creepy.
Get up.
Please, get up from there.
Hello.
Come.
Can I please see your
boarding pass, ma'am?
I had a boarding pass yesterday
but I missed the flight.
I can just I can show you
I had to spend the night because
I'm waiting for another plane.
How long have you been here?
- Not long.
- I tell you.
You have been seen around
the premises for three days now.
Either you are homeless
or you have mental issues.
Either way, you are not allowed to be
here and I am here to kick you out.
- Are you kidding?
- Come.
- Mister, I have a boarding pass
- Come.
- on my phone. Please?
- Come on.
- I'm serious. Please?
- Come on.
- Please?
- Come on.
- I have a boarding pass in my phone.
- Come on.
Go out.
Paralyzed.
Frozen.
Fright. Flight. Freeze.
The three F's.
We have patterns of reaction.
They lie deep within us.
Primeval instincts.
They are activated
when we feel threatened.
The threat may also be due to stress
or sudden misfortune.
Those are the three things
that hit us.
Those are our three choices.
We fight, run away
Or we freeze. You know. Stop.
Now I've been frozen for three days.
How long does it take
to get through the third F?
And now Seo-Jun Nam gets the gold medal.
Look at the smile on his face.
Not only is he the first Korean winner,
the youngest winner in the tournament.
Why didn't Psycho Bo tell me
about the fourth F?
If monkeys panic
because the forest is on fire
They fornicate.
There's also the post-war generation.
It's big.
People have a lot of sex during war.
No one is able to explain why.
It's the nature of things.
Or God's.
Eros.
Fright. Flight. Freeze. Fuck.
- Hello.
- Good evening, madam.
I would like to book a nice big room.
A suite, if you have?
As far away from ground level
as possible.
Of course. Can I see your passport
and credit card please?
Sure.
- Can I ask you something?
- Yes, of course.
It's very important for me.
I need the phone number
for your national hero Seo-Jun Nam.
- Can you get that for me?
- Seo-Jun Nam?
- Yes.
- Olympic champion?
- Yes.
- Sorry, madam. I don't know him.
Yes, but maybe you know someone
who know someone who knows him.
Sorry, madam. No.
Look, I've been travelling
for a very long time.
It would be very nice
if you could get me his number.
I can pay you.
Come on, it's just a phone number.
- I can pay you a lot.
- I'll see what I can do.
Do what you want.
If, if
