Les voilà coincées dans le désert, où le réseau de portable ne passe guère. Alors qu’elle se prépare à réparer sa roue, sa fille se fait mordre par un crotale. Gravement blessée, Clara perd connaissance. Katrina regarde autour d’elle : elle voit un mobile home qu’elle n’avait étrangement pas vu. Elle y entre sans frapper, et apparait une femme (Debrianna Mansini) assez étrange lui disant qu’elle a de la chance : cette dernière a maintes fois soigné les morsures de serpent, et lui dit de réparer la voiture sans oublier de payer sa dette. Katrina retourne à sa voiture pour changer de pneu, et récupère sa fille pour l’emmener à l’hôpital dans la ville de Tulia. Deux choses étranges, la propriétaire a disparu et la morsure de serpent, également.

Although the film centers on Childers, it starts off with a scene in South Sudan, where the LRA are attacking a village. This opening scene is placed into context later in the film. Childers was an alcoholic drug-using biker from Pennsylvania. On his release from prison, he finds that his wife has given up her job as a stripper, because she has since become a Christian. Eventually, after he almost kills a vagrant the night before, his wife persuades him to go to church with her, where he is eventually converted.

Harold Crick, an agent for the Internal Revenue Service, lives his life by his wristwatch. He is assigned to audit an intentionally tax-delinquent baker, Ana Pascal, to whom he is attracted. On the same day, he begins hearing the voice of a woman omnisciently narrating his life but is unable to communicate with it. Harold's watch stops working and he resets it using the time given by a bystander; the voice narrates, "little did he know that this simple, seemingly innocuous act would result in his imminent death". Worried by this prediction, Harold consults a psychiatrist who attributes the voice to schizophrenia, though they consider that if there really is a narrator, he should visit an expert in literature. Crick visits Jules Hilbert, a literature professor, and relates his story. When Jules recognizes aspects of a literary work in Harold's story, he encourages Harold to identify the author, first by determining if the work is a comedy or tragedy.
