本以为全剧将贯穿着以Ian和Sofi分别代表(不一定对立的)科学和上帝进行的哲学争论,结果一个电梯让它终结了……
Sofi对神灵的感知,是她的成熟的特质(而不是梦幻、虚假、孩子气)。她是或者成为了这样一种人。她透着无法表达的灵性,也许是和Karen所说在实验室里有所发现当晚躺在床上的“此刻世界上只有我一个人知道这个真理”一样的感受,坚信、激动、期待、遗憾,因她的人生信条而成为她的形状。她就像一种冥冥的存在,让人感觉是一种指引的化身。

放一段对白:
S:How many senses do worms have?
虫子有几种感觉?
I:They have two. Smell and touch. Why?
他们有两种,嗅觉和触觉。怎么了?
S:So, they live without any ability to see or even know about light, right? The notion of light to them is unimaginable.
那么,他们看不到,也甚至不知道光的存在吧?光对它们来说是无法想象的。
I:Yeah. 是的。
S:But we humans, we know that light exists. All aroung them right on the top of them. They can't sense it. But with a little mutation, they do. Right?
但我们人类知道光是存在的。就在它们周围,在它们头顶,他们感觉不到。但加入一点突变,它们就能看见,对吗?
I:Correct. 正确。
S:So...Doctor Eye...perhaps some humans, rare humans, have mutated to have another sense. A spirit sense. And can perceive a world that is right on top of us, everywhere. Just like the light on these worms.
所以…眼睛博士…也许有些人,极少部分的人,突变产生了别的感觉。对神灵的感觉。就像虫子周围的光。
(先不说虫子是不是真的只有两种感觉)这一段对白里,Sofi组合线索运用逻辑把我们感觉到但无法表达的模糊想法,从具象事实抽象出了一个合理成立的“假说”了。如果Sofi不是已经自我觉醒的突变人的话,这是一种天赋、灵性吧!
我这样想,Sofi对于世界的认识来自于天赋,而Ian的认识可能来自于“天赋不足”……(作为一个理科生说出这样的话我觉得自己还不错)或者说,Ian需要一些证据来证实自己的猜想(感觉),他目前的信仰是要证伪上帝。但作为个体的人,在世上的人生也是一个过程,谁能保证自己在哪一刻会改变呢?
Sofi对Ian说过这些话:
You live in this room, right? Reality. You have a bed, you have books, a desk, a chair, lamps. Logic. But in this room, you have a door to the other side. See? Light comes through. It's open. Just a tiny bit, but it's open. You keep trying to close that door because you're scared. But you won't always be scared.
