Into.the.Night.S01E02

A flashback shows Jakub, a engineer, at home with his wife. The distressed passenger dies while the soldiers warn that they must fly west and follow the night. Zara disbelieves the situation and must be forced onto the plane with her sick son, Dominik, before takeoff towards Canada. Sylvie reveals to Jakub that she had intended to commit suicide after this flight due to the death of her boyfriend, whose ashes she brought along in an urn. She is then comforted and galvanized to stay on by Jakub. Internet access is restored to the plane. After reading a news story Horst hypothesizes that there has been a burst of highly ionising gamma rays from the sun. Ayaz discovers that the British soldiers were facing court martial for rape and murder in Afghanistan, and alerts Sylvie. Upon landing in Edson, Canada,[a] Mathieu sends the soldiers into town to search for a replacement radio, and they insist on Jakub and flight attendant Gabrielle accompanying them. Jakub attempts to lock the soldiers in a storeroom and return to the plane with Gabrielle, but leaves her behind as she mistakes Jakub's actions as being malevolent and refuses to leave with him. The plane takes off with Jakub aboard as the soldiers chase it down the runway, shooting and cracking a window.
