Plot.
Dr. Claire Summers, a therapist, has lived her life within a small comfort
zone without taking any risks. It is because of that life that her mentor
Perry, to get her out of that comfort zone, assigns her to act as the group
therapist for a handful of airplane crash survivors, that handful out of just
over one hundred passengers who did not survive the crash. Perry warns her
especially about one survivor, Eric Clark, who, instead of grief, feels
ecstatic about life. Indeed, Eric does not want to attend group sessions along
with the others, but he does encourage Claire to come see him anytime as a
friend in his personal interest in her. On the caveat that he no longer hit on
her, Claire decides to do so in her effort to help him. As such, she has to
tread that fine line of acting but not acting as his therapist while he still
has that attraction to her. Her ulterior motive in seeing Eric is that he,
without coming right out and saying so or why, seems to know small details of
her personal life. In the group sessions, Claire finds that there are
conflicting details from some of the surviving passengers against the official
statement of the airline, which is that it was pilot error that caused the
crash, the pilot who is among the deceased and thus cannot defend himself.
Claire wants to discover the truth behind the crash if only to help the
survivors heal properly. In trying to discover the truth, Claire begins to
butt heads with Mr. Arkin, the airline representative who she does not trust,
especially as he seems to be following her. Also following her and the other
survivors is an unknown man. As such, Claire also begins to believe the
conspiracy theory of one of the survivors that the airline is trying to get to
them to shut them up, permanently if need be, that unknown man suspected to
work for Arkin. That theory is strengthened in Claire's mind as one by one,
those surviving passengers stop attending the group therapy sessions, she not
knowing where they are. Through it all, a kindly neighbor seems to be able to
provide Claire with extra comfort during this time, like Eric she who seems to
know what she needs without her asking.
