Phyllis continues driving but she consistently receives a text from Sharon, which later annoys her immensely and distracts her from keeping her eyes on the road. She gets frustrated and informs her about being on the way.
Meanwhile, Sharon in another car, heading towards her home keeps her text going to Phyllis. Suddenly, her rearview mirror gets filled with bright lights, completely blinding her. Phyllis receives one more text from Sharon before bumping into another car, leading to a horrific car crash. Since then, she has ended up in a coma.
