Today I'll show you a mystery film: "The Girl on the Train"!
Spoilers ahead, watch out and take care! The story begins with a woman sitting by the
train's window. She looks outside, and watches the scenery in every house the train passes;
and the woman's name is Rachel. She sits near the third car from the train's front
to see her favorite house, Number 15 Beckett road. The train stops; and she finds a woman
standing on her favorite house's balcony. Later that day, Rachel sits in the same spot;
and as the train passes, she notices a couple near a bonfire, and sees the woman she saw earlier that
day with a man, having a sweet moment. The next day, as the train passes on the
same track, she looks at her favorite house again, and spots the couple she saw last night.
On the same day, Rachel enters a building; and the scene translates to a brilliant shoe service.
She starts to think about the couple she saw yesterday. Moving on to a restaurant, Rachel
still wonders what's happening in that couple. The scene moves to another blonde woman named
Megan, who has semi-chinky eyes, and is the person who lives at Rachel's favorite house.
She is the woman who Rachel glimpses every day when commuting. Flashback to six months before,
Megan seeks help from a doctor about wanting to change her lifestyle,
as she has been a rebellious teenager. Megan mentions a man from her past, and discusses
her life with him. After that, she talks about her life with her current hormone partner. The scene
proceeds to the next woman, Anna, who talks to a child while bathing him. The scene reveals that
Megan is Anna's maid and the child's babysitter; so she helps Anna take care of the boy.
Suddenly, the telephone rings. Megan comes immediately; and Anna follows her;
but they get no answer from the caller. The two dismiss that and go on with their day;
and while folding a bed case, Megan tells Anna she's getting another job. Anna tries to convince
her to stay with them; but after some discussion, Megan goes on with her decision, and leaves.
A flashback suddenly plays, revealing Anna waking up, as she hears her baby's cry.
She sees Rachel outside holding her baby; so Anna immediately pleads with Rachel to give
her child back. The flashback ends, as Anna's husband comes home with some presents. Anna
shares what happened earlier that day, including the strange call and Megan's resignation.
The scene progresses with Rachel riding the train, where she spots Anna having quality family time.
As she comes home, Rachel investigates Anna; and it turns out, the couple she saw while
riding the train earlier having a sweet moment, is Anna and Rachel's ex-husband,
Tom. As the night progresses, Rachel becomes drunk; and she tries to contact Tom.
When she fails, she sends him a voice message. as this happens, her friend gets her to bed.
Before falling asleep, Rachel remembers a painful memory of her and her previous husband, wherein a
doctor tells them they cannot have a baby. The next day, Rachel sits at the same spot on the
train again. As she puts her lipstick on, the man she saw the other day piques her attention;
and she spots him looking at her again. Looking at her favorite house, she sees Megan
with another man, leaving her wondering who that might be, because he's not the same man she saw
on previous nights. She immediately moves to the back to see them clearly; but unluckily,
the train passes in an underpass. At the park, Rachel is anxious as she
recalls things with her previous husband, and what she saw earlier that day while drinking alcohol.
She cries, as she remembers when she caught Tom committing infidelity in their marriage.
Later that day, she shares her feelings with a woman, telling the
moment she saw her husband cheating on her. The two go to the comfort room and take a video,
saying inappropriate words about Anna, Tom's current wife. As drunk as she is, she also implies
what she does in that house with Tom. She also remembers witnessing Megan with another man on
the balcony, indicating that she feels pure rage after seeing that, before losing her control.
On the way home, she stands in the aisle of the train. Although feeling dizzy because of too much
alcohol, she tries to look at the house in Number 15 Beckett Road. She drops her at the station
where the house is located, and spots the man that piqued her interest dropping at the same station.
She looks at her back while walking rapidly, and notices the man following her.
As she walks down the woods, Rachel sees Megan in a red jacket, walking towards the
tunnel. Still drunk, Rachel then calls her to have her attention, and calls Megan a whore,
before suddenly passing out. The next day, Rachel finds herself in a terrible state;
so she immediately washes herself and the blood on her head. While on the train, Rachel falls asleep,
and dreams about herself tweaking Megan, and suddenly wakes up.
The story then fast-forwards to Rachel sharing her past experiences in a session, wherein people like
her share their experiences that affect their mental health. Later that day, she rides the
train again. Seeing a familiar face, she lowers herself; so she will not be noticed by them.
A flashback suddenly appears again, revealing Rachel and her husband at a birthday celebration
with that familiar face she sees on the train. In her memory, she loses her temper and throws
food on the wall, which causes a scene. It turns out, the familiar face is the wife of Tom's boss.
Rachel also recalls having arguments with her ex-husband.
She's surprised when two detectives are inside when she enters the home.
the detective instantly asks Rachel questions about her whereabouts last Friday night,
before showing a picture of Megan. It turns out, Megan works for Tom; and she has gone missing.
She then asks Rachel if she were at work Friday; and Rachel answers that she was.
However, the detective informs her that she was fired a year ago because of her drinking problem,
leaving her speechless. The two detectives decide to end the discussion and leave.
The friend, who's there, asks Rachel if the statements from the detective are factual.
They talk about what's happening to Rachel. After remembering some memories,
Rachel runs outside to call on the detective. Rachel informs her about when she saw Megan having
an affair with another man. However, the detective once again contradicts Rachel's statement,
as she knows about her recent whereabouts. Moving back to the scene four months ago,
Megan confesses that she's lied to her partner, her husband, and the doctor she's talking to.
She tries to seduce the doctor with her words and hormones; but the doctor won't budge her
seductive words. After that, the two continuously talk about what Megan is experiencing in her life.
Moving on to the current timeline, Rachel reads an article about Megan and her disappearance.
That same day, Rachel goes to Megan and her hormone-partner's house, where the
partner shares some information concerning the disappearance of her wife. Rachel tells
him that Megan was cheating on his hormones. The partner asks what the man looks like;
and Rachel replies with a distinct and precise look of the man Megan was cheating with.
He then shows a picture of a confident man, the doctor that Megan talks to every time;
and Rachel confirms that he was the man Megan was cheating with. Two months before that moment,
Megan is in the woods with another man, having an intimate exercise.
The scene moves to Megan talking to the doctor, and telling him that her partner talks about
pregnancy-related things. Megan tries to have her tongue wrestling with the doctor;
but he refuses to do so, because he doesn't want to lose his practice license.
On the other side, Rachel watches the TV, and sees the doctor being arrested by the authority,
regarding Megan's disappearance. Later that day, Megan's partner notifies Rachel that the doctor
was released, because there wasn't enough evidence against him; and he begins to doubt
Rachel's statements about the doctor. After some time, Rachel leaves the house,
and spots Tom and Anna with their baby. Seeing that, she recalls some events in the tunnel,
the exact day when Megan disappeared. Tom tries to approach, and stop Rachel from making
any move that may endanger his family again. The story progresses with Rachel talking to the
doctor; and the two of them are discussing lost memories of Rachel, that she wants to retrieve.
She also talks about her experience with her ex-husband, Tom, about them not having a baby.
On the other hand, Anna goes to the detective, to discuss what Rachel did in the past. Anna returns
to their home, and tries to open Tom's laptop using different passwords. At night, Rachel cannot
stop looking at her drawing that illustrates the tunnel, where the accident happened on
Friday night. Megan's partner stops at her house, and talks about the ongoing investigation of his
missing wife. He informs Rachel that Megan is pregnant; but he's not the father.
In a past different scene, Megan goes to the doctor's house to tell him about her story.
She tells him about her life when she got a baby at 17. Megan also describes
how her life becomes tragic and painful, after losing the baby in her belly.
Moving on to the present time, Rachel discusses with the doctor how she entered Tom and Anna's
house. She adds how she wants to hold Anna and Tom's baby longer; but then Anna wakes up, and
pleads with her to give her baby back. She claims that she only wants to hold the child longer,
nothing else. On that same day, news came out regarding the disappearance of Megan. It says that
Megan's partially decomposed body was found; and the cause of her death was blunt force trauma.
Rachel goes to Megan's partner's house, and catches sight of reporters in front of the house.
She turns back, and notices Anna and her baby on the side of the road; but pays no attention and
walks past them. Later that day, Anna talks about recalling herself as Tom's mistress,
and seeing Rachel that day. Anna implies Rachel might have killed Megan; but Tom disagrees.
On that same day, Rachel comes home; and she's surprised to see Megan's partner in her house,
uninvited. She asks him how he got in; but he refuses to answer, and talks about Megan's
pregnancy. He implies that he is neither the father nor the doctor; so he asks Rachel if
Megan has a third man. Rachel cannot answer his question, causing him to be angry.
The partner says the detective told him that Rachel doesn't even know Megan,
angering him even more as Rachel has lied to him. Rachel decides to go to the police department,
to file a statement about Megan's partner assaulting her. the detective refuses to
believe it, as she believes that Megan's partner and Rachel are dating. Director Riley tries to
make Rachel confess to Megan's murder case; but Rachel refuses to answer and leaves.
Moving back to last Friday, Megan called the doctor to meet her before Megan's disappearance.
After that, the two hugs each other on the balcony; and that same scene is the event
that Rachel saw while riding the train. Back to the current timeline, Rachel drinks
at the bar, and approaches the man who followed her on the day of the incident, the same man she
glimpses every time she commutes. Rachel asks him several questions about the day of the incident.
She questions him on what he saw that Friday night; and the man answers accordingly.
Rachel refuses to believe the man's statement, causing her to be more confused.
Rachel sits at her house, thinking about what happened. In her mind,
a scenario is happening, wherein she is killing Megan. Rachel leaves the house, and rides a train
to the tunnel where the incident occurred. Inside the train, Rachel notices the wife of Tom's boss,
calls her and apologizes for what she has done to her, "about" what happened on her birthday.
Rachel mentions the things that happened on that day. She feels sorry about smashing the plate,
which causes a scene, and gets Tom fired from his job. Tom's boss' wife opposes Rachel's statement,
saying that those things didn't happen. On the contrary, that day, Rachel fell sick;
and she tried to aid Rachel by giving her a bedroom to rest in, while Tom took Rachel home.
She adds that Tom was fired, because he constantly tried to score on his officemates.
Meanwhile, Anna is still trying to open Tom's laptop using different passwords, but cannot open
it. Instead, she finds a phone in the laptop's bag, which she opens and notices some messages.
Before she can read any, she sees Tom coming; so she hides the phone immediately. On the other
hand, Rachel returns to the tunnel, and slowly regains her memory of what happened that day.
Moving back to Anna, while her husband's asleep, she sneaks out of the house with the phone.
After that, she finds out that the phone wasn't Tom's, but Megan's phone.
Tom suddenly appears from the house door, making her toss the phone away in shock.
Meanwhile, Rachel finally recalls what happened that day, as she walks through the tunnel.
She sees Tom coming toward her; and then he suddenly grabs Rachel by the arm, and strikes
her on her head. Rachel crawls slowly to the tunnel aisle, and notices the car leaving.
The next day, Rachel comes to Anna's house, and tries to talk to her about Tom cheating and
lying to Anna. Rachel tries to imply that Tom killed Megan; but Anna refuses to believe it.
Rachel also instructs Anna to leave with her; but she resists.
Tom comes out of the house; and Rachel angrily approaches him, telling him that he is Megan's
murderer. Tom is furious about the ruckus Rachel is making; so he pulls her inside the house.
As soon as Rachel enters the house, she explains what happened that day. Anna also adds that she
has found Megan's phone in Tom's laptop bag. Rachel tries to call the police to seek help;
but Tom immediately stops her. The atmosphere inside the house is agitated, as they all reveal
what Tom does. Tom is outraged as Rachel tells the truth about him; so he strikes him with the glass,
causing Rachel to lose consciousness. The memory of what happened that day flashes back;
Megan says she wants to go to the woods, where she tells Tom about her pregnancy.
However, Tom is not very pleased about it, and tells her to get an abortion. Megan tries to speak
with Tom about their relationship. She then pushes Tom, and utters words that piss him so much.
Tom loses his temper; so he pushes Megan, causing her head to hit a rock.
After that, he stamps and strikes her head with a stone. Rachel regains her consciousness, and hears
Tom blaming her and saying that she killed Megan in a way. Rachel gets up and runs to the door;
but it won't open. Tom catches Rachel and strangles her; but luckily, Rachel manages to grab
an umbrella shelf, and strikes Tom with it. Rachel tries to run for her life again; but Tom
catches her instantly. Unbeknownst to him, Rachel carries a sharp weapon; so as soon as he grabs
her, Rachel stabs him in his neck. Anna goes down after seeing that, and pins the sharp
object more to Tom's neck to her anger. Later that day, Anna and Rachel are arrested
for the murder. In the police department, the detective interviews them to tell the
authority what happened. The movie ends with Rachel sitting in a different car from the
train. She talks to herself that she's not the woman she used to be anymore.
