Attention all passengers, Union Pacific is scheduled for departure in ten minutes.
Yo, Bruce, it's John.
What's happening, buddy?
Listen, the train's running on time,
and I'll see you at Belmont Harbor, all right?
We're going to have some dinner, get some shut-eye,
and hit the water at sunrise, all right?
This is ridiculous.
I hate technology.
Excuse me, sir.
You look computer savvy.
This dopey machine ate my money, but it won't give me a ticket... can you help?
I'm sorry, but I have to finish this email before I catch my train.
- I'm sorry. - I'll give it a crack for you.
Good luck.
I think it hates me.
Come on, don't make me look bad in front of the pretty young lady.
Look at that.
- Ye of little faith. - God had nothing to do with it. You saved my life
- Are you okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.
- Attention all passengers - You want some company?
Thank you, have a safe trip
- So where you getting off? - Montreal.
- The train travels that far north? - Yep
Montreal's gorgeous, like a postcard.
What better way to get there than on an old-fashioned train?
- What are you, a travel agent? - Just a fan.
- How 'bout you? Goin' fishin'? - You're a detective too, huh?
undercover, CIA.
- Where are you sitting? - I don't know. It depends.
On?
Could I ask you a personal question?
My favorite kind.
You don't have an ex-boyfriend or husband with a bad temper, do you?
The kind of guy that would
follow you onto this train?
You said a personal question, not a weird one.
This is gonna sound kind of strange, but, uh.
I'm psychic.
I get it.
Because I said I was part of the CIA, and you've gotta top me.
No, seriously.
Maggie, I get visions.
Sometimes I...
see the future.
And mine looks bad?
I think so.
All right, you think you're the only one who's psychic?
I've got some strong psychic powers myself.
You do?
Watch.
check them out.
Divorced in a year.
How do you know that?
She's wearing oodles of expensive designer clothing.
He's got a $99 suit.
She's pampered too, put together. He can't afford her.
She takes him to the cleaners.
Total heartbreak.
Cross-dresser.
- Seriously? - V.P.L. visible panty line.
That's just... that's just wrong.
Two for two.
Now it's time to try you.
- you don't have to do that. - I see a woman.
She's not your wife.
Not your girlfriend either.
But there's a bond that makes you feel guilty.
- Guilty? - For flirting with me.
- I'm not flirting with you. - No...
you're just being extra chatty, and pretending to be a psychic.
Her name is Sarah.
And I've known her for... it feels like my whole life.
And we have a son.
He's a beautiful kid.
We're not married.
She has a baby. We live in the same house.
- My life is very, uh... - Complex?
Mildly.
Okay. More about me and my dangerous vibe.
I'd have to touch you.
You have permission.
I won't tell Sarah.
You want out, Mags?
What did you see?
You.
Just before something bad happens.
Yeah, right.
- Does anyone ever call you "Mags" for short? - No
- You sure? - I think I'd know.
Johnny, it's been fun.
Maybe we should put an act together and go on the road.
Tyler, where are you?
Has anyone seen a little boy?
Tyler?
- Tyler? - Ma'am, what's the matter?
My four-year-old's missing.
Why don't you try the next car, he's probably in the bathroom
playing hide and seek or something.
Wonderful.
I'm a big train fan myself.
Since my wife died I've been taking them as much as I can.
It feels like I'm getting away.
I love that feeling when no one can find you.
Look who it is.
Hi, Mags.
- I'm sorry, is he your... - A friend.
Johnny Smith, meet a fellow real traveler. Phillip Nelson...
- Hey, Phil, how are you - Careful, Johnny's psychic.
Touch him and he might find out all your dirty little secrets.
- You almost had me. - Actually, I had a vision.
About you dying.
- You had a v... - I die?
Yeah, you do, Mags.
Stop calling me that.
Why is he calling you "Mags"?
'Cause that's what the killer called her, Phil.
This conversation is a little too morbid for me.
I'm going back to my room and finish the sunday crossword.
Maybe, if you'd be interested, we could have a drink later.
- Sounds great. - Sounds great
Thanks, Phil.
Okay, here's the deal.
I'm getting off at the next station... it's called Belmont Harbor.
I strongly advise you get off there too.
But, uh, I'm going to Montreal.
Come here.
Someone is going to make you fall off this train.
- You sound so sincere. - This is not a joke.
Okay? So here's what you can do.
I'm gonna call the Penobscot sheriff's department,
okay? You can ask them if I'm legit.
Let's just say all this is true.
I get off the train in Belmont Harbor, I'm still in Maine, not Canada.
Yeah, but you're alive.
Now listen closely.
You can get off at that station, you can rent a car.
- There's an airport near... - I don't want to do that.
Look. a buddy of mine and I
are renting a boat, and we're gonna sail north across the border.
You have one other option: You can come with us.
A boat ride with you and your friend to Canada?
- I don't think so. - Okay, here's the thing.
If you don't get off this train
you're gonna die.
Thanks, I think.
- Thanks for humoring me. - You're cute.
For a nutcase.
I think I'll skip the good-bye kiss, hug, or handshake.
- I learned my lesson. - Fair enough.
- Gum? - No, I'm good.
Your loss.
It's got great flavor.
See ya.
Yeah, be safe.
Hey, Bruce, we have to reschedule the fishing trip, man.
Thought it was someone else?
- Will you stop following me? - Absolutely not.
- There's barely enough room in here for me. - Perfect
Makes it easier for me to keep an eye on you
till we hit the next station.
I can't get off the train.
Why is that?
I'm in trouble, okay?
You were right about that.
The best thing for you to do is just leave me alone.
Maggie.
I knew it.
you want to go.
- You can't run from me! - See ya, Craig.
Why don't you tell me about Craig and the money you stole from him?
Great.
You see things off of objects too.
Neat, huh?
Craig Paladino is a pimp, a drug dealer, and an extortionist.
That's an impressive resume.
Believe me, he deserve the shrunken bank account.
But things went wrong.
That's why you're running?
That and a couple other burn marks who'd like to see me dead.
Just a couple?
Okay.
Maybe five... six tops
And you're on this train because.
I want to start over.
Complete life do-over.
Maybe teach school, get married, have kids.
You don't believe me.
you've just been so honest since we met.
I want out.
But you can't run cons for long without consequences.
It took me forever to get this far north unscathed,
and now you're telling me that I've got to get off the train?
If you want to live you do.
Are your visions ever wrong?
And I can't get rid of you?
What do you think?
Gin.
Again.
Does Sarah approve of you using your psychic powers to cheat at cards?
It doesn't work that way.
- Why not? - I wish I knew.
Although I have been banned from several casinos in Vegas.
Me too.
We've got a lot in common.
- Do you play cards with Sarah? - I used to
Then what happened?
She got married.
Wait, I thought you two had a kid, and lived in the same house together.
- We do. - So is she available or not?
- It's kind of, uh... - Complex. I remember.
Maybe it's time you let her go.
Are you gonna deal?
Must be tough trusting people when you can read their minds.
I'm not a mind reader.
Then I'm one up on you.
Is that so?
It's making me blush.
You know, I heard this train doesn't stop for the next two hours.
Is that so?
I blew off the snack bar for you.
that was unnecessary.
Tell me about it.
I'm starving.
Okay.
You stay here, I'll get some sandwiches.
And when I leave, lock the door.
Sorry, wrong room.
Sorry. Excuse me
Hey, buddy, I lost my girlfriend.
Have you seen a pretty blonde with green eyes?
There was one in the passenger car about an hour ago,
talking with some guy wearing a green jacket, short hair.
Thanks.
Hey, look who I ran into.
Hello again.
Hey, Phil?
Good night, Maggie.
That was quick.
What are you doing in the hallway? I told you to stay in your room.
I was thirsty. I thought there was a drinking fountain out here. Why, what's wrong?
Craig Paladinois on the train.
Let's go.
Open up, it's an emergency.
Open up!
Where's the girl?
- What girl? - Maggie
There's no one named Maggie here.
You know, the one you were chatting up about an hour ago.
It's a private cabin.
No one named Maggie here.
Satisfied?
No.
You'd better not be lying.
You're quite the con man.
Coming from you, that's quite the compliment.
Sure, I remember her.
Gorgeous. Great tip too.
Is that her?
He's found us.
Keep moving, come on, back of the train. Keep moving
What do we do?
Go. Come on, run, run, go!
- Move - I can't do that.
You've gotta be kidding me.
You okay?
I saw that guy slug you through the window.
- He mugged me. Call 911 - Yeah, yeah, for sure
Hey, buddy.
- You stay away from that girl. - Who the hell are you
- Pardon me - My fault.
So you're planning to rip off Phillip's diamonds?
You're gifted, I'll give you that.
I'm not gonna let an innocent man get robbed.
Is this the part where I'm supposed to apologize?
Look, I just took a pounding 'cause I thought you weren't a criminal.
I only steal from the well-insured and the much-deserving.
Yeah, that's cute, okay?
You may think you know these people,
but then you're long gone before the fallout hits.
And I don't mean just their bank accounts.
Believe me, Craig had it coming.
I don't see Phillip as another Craig.
Johnny, this is my last job.
I swear to god that's true.
Your last job was your last job, or you're gonna end up dead.
My god, you don't get it.
You don't get it.
This... this is what these people do to you.
Even when you obey the rules.
You're not the only one whose life is complex.
If you want out, you have to trust me.
I mean, like, who is gonna call you "Mags"?
Mags.
The guy who calls me Mags is.
A little green frog named Kermit.
What?
Shazam.
I don't understand.
You drugged me.
You'll wake up in a while with a nasty hangover.
Take a handful of aspirin... you'll be fine.
Why don't you just trust me? I'll do this
I could have used a white knight like you in my life.
Sarah's a lucky girl.
I hope she knows that.
Last week was your anniversary?
My third without her.
That must be so hard.
Tell me about her. What did she like? Music, I bet.
- Hey, Phil, you gotta watch out for her. - What's wrong with you?
He's drunk. Let's call somebody help
Help-- waiter!
- It was drugs. - Waiter!
You want out, Mags?
Let go of me!
That guy with Craig, it's him.
Phil, let's go.
Forget about me, Johnny.
I'm not worth it.
All right, sir, up on your feet.
Come on, let's try to sleep this off.
Maggie.
No, but I'm looking for her.
My name's Malone. I'm a cop
I've been on Mags' trail for five months now.
Picked up on a wire tap that she's got a jewel heist planned on this train...
diamond neck lace.
What do you want from me?
I lost Mags and her mark.
What'd she tell you about her plan?
- Nothing. - Come on.
She must've told you something, huh?
She wouldn't have drugged you unless you got in her way.
Look, don't give me a reason to charge you as an accessory to a major crime.
Look, I wish I could help you.
Right now, all I want is a couple of tylenol.
protect heror protect yourself. It's your choice, pal.
She did say something about some guy named Phillip,
and putting her luggage up in the front car.
He had his bags there. Does that help you?
Yeah, that just might.
Johnny?
What's your story this time, Maggie?
That I'm no good.
You spend the whole day trying to save my ass, and what do I do?
Drug your coffee.
If I ever stay in some place for more than a week,
I'll sign up for some heavy-duty therapy.
- Maggie... - That's why guys like you are with women like Sarah,
and women like me are with losers like Craig Paladino.
It was Phillip's anniversary with his dead wife.
Elizabeth.
And?
Her name was the combination to the lock on his briefcase.
I got it open,
but my heart felt like it weighed a million pounds.
You know.
He didn't even touch me.
Didn't even try.
He's still in love with Elizabeth.
Kind of like you and Sarah.
I used that to betray him.
What kind of person does that make me?
A person who has time to make things right.
The guy who makes you fall off this train in my vision
is a cop named Malone.
- Malone? - Yeah
I think he catches your red-handed.
You sure he's on this train?
God!
He takes the train every other month
running stones under the radar for his family's jewelry business.
It is such an easy mark.
- Here. - I want out, Malone.
No. You know,
it doesn't work that way.
No, please... please don't.
No, please.
You were trying to get out.
You believe me?
I do now.
Get your hands where I can see 'em.
Get back. Get back
Now!
Give me the necklace.
You were gonna get off the train just over the Canadian border and blow me off in Montreal.
You think I'm stupid?
You got what you want why don't you just let us go?
These are the fakes.
Did you think I wouldn't notice?
These are the fakes!
Get back to Phillip's room.
You want out, Mags?
This is one for the record books.
Turns out your assailant actually is a police officer.
- Really? - Yeah,
but a suspended one.
Police brutality. Some rough stuffdown in Philly.
Thanks.
This is my stop.
Yeah, listen, about what happened in the club car...
Maggie told me that cop drugged you, so
I owe you an apology.
No, that's not necessary.
Take care of yourself.
You too.
it's been a real adventure.
It certainly has.
I'm sorry about Elizabeth.
- She must have been a lovely woman. - she was
I keep hoping things will get easier.
- Change for the better. - They do.
You just have tobe ready for them.
Well?
Yep. well
I'm gonna get off at the next stop and take a train south.
- Maybe salvage my fishing trip. - Good luck with that
You still heading to Canada?
- Kind of. - Kind of?
I have one little problem.
I was going to give Malone the diamonds,
- and then disappear into Canada, but my passport... - Is a fake?
I'm good, I'm just not that good.
I just don't want them to look at it too closely.
It's the only way I can truly disappear.
Other wise I might as well just mail Craig Paladino my new address.
I presume you have a plan.
Canada customs, open up.
Talk about awkward timing?
Passports, please.
Luggage?
No luggage, sir.
Except my fabulous new engagement ring.
My fiance just proposed. You're the first person we've told.
Congratulations, ma'am.
And on a train. It's so romantic.
- I'm old fashioned. - You weren't last night.
I'd advise you to watch her.
- She's a handful. - Yes, sir.
- That was fun. - And our mission accomplished.
I was just celebrating.
All aboard, last call.
All aboard! Last call!
- Come on, just a week... a month. - Maggie
You could start over in a place where no one knows anything about you.
That's a nice thought.
- I've got responsibilities. - Like saving other damsels in distress?
- Sometimes. - Or just one
- I'll miss you more than she would. - You don't know that.
- Do you? - Another me, another place.
No, it's now or never. you taught me that
Gosh, you're so beautiful.
Yeah! And go.
I know how Rick felt about Ilsa on that tarmac.
- Casablanca? - Goha**
It's my favorite movie.
I've only seen ita zillion times.
I hope that woman knows how lucky she is.
Hey, Johnny?
Come here.
And we kissed.
- You got a vision off me, didn't you? - Yeah
Things gonna work out?
Things work out great.
Hey, J.J. How's it going, son?
Is your mom there?
Hey, Sarah
Just checking in.
Yeah, I'm good.
Had a normal day.
