The engine soon fails and the air conditioning dies, turning the cabin into a furnace that pushes the child toward heatstroke and the brink of unconsciousness.
Esther gathers the strength to dial her father, but Adrian disconnects the call without listening to her plea. She manages one final video call to her mother Claire before her tablet battery dies, cutting off the location details Claire needs to find her.
