Go To

1[[WMG:Rhoda-2 won the essay contest, not by writing about her criminal experience which she never had, but by becoming amazingly successful.]]
2Rhoda-2 never killed John's family and was never charged with drunk driving. She went to MIT, got a fantastic career as whatever, and used that experience to win the Essay Contest-2, while Rhoda-1 used her experience as a felon. Since Rhoda-2 never met John, she went to Earth 1 by herself.

4[[WMG:Earth 2 is a [[{{Doppelganger}} doppleganger]] world.]]
5The moment after the film ends, the Earth 2 double of Rhoda mutates into something ugly and devours Earth 1 Rhoda. It turns out that Earth 2 mimics planets and their populations to feed on them. This is why it took a while to establish contact, and why the Earth 2 SETI woman's voice was choppy - the planet was still manufacturing doubles en masse as it scanned earth at higher and higher resolution. Earth is totally screwed.
6* That's an awesome idea. Please, somebody do a movie with this premise.
7
8[[WMG:The final scene when Rhoda sees her double is actually ''on Earth 2'']]
9Either one could be the Earth 1 Rhoda.
10
11[[WMG:The ''character'' of Rhoda isn't actually as attractive as the actress playing her.]]
12We can't call HollywoodHomely because it's never stated, but a woman of 22 years old and being that pretty should have had guys asking her out and trying to include her in their social lives. So maybe she really wasn't very pretty.
13* Rhoda is getting out of jail and is riddled with guilt for killing John's family. We see how awkward it is when she meets a former schoolmate from college who asks her what she teaches at school, and she shamely answers she's doing the cleaning. Not good to be in a dating mood.
14
15[[WMG: Rhoda was looking up and right instead of left on Earth-2]]
16Thus, she swerved right instead of left, and didn't hit anyone.
17
18[[WMG: The Earths are moving towards a collision]]
19Aside from the obvious scientific likelihood of that happening, every time Earth-2 is show, it is shown bigger.
20
21[[WMG: Earth 2 Rhoda killed only John in her version of the collision.]]
22Both Rhodas probably looked up, and crashed into the families car, but that's when events slightly changed. So how Earth 2 Rhoda might have crashed into the car might've been a way where only John (or at least John) died.
23
24The main reason why I don't think it possible that the crash never happened on Earth 2, is that she needed to have that reason to write down her entry to win a trip to the other Earth about sending outcasts and felons like herself. If she was successful in life, then there no way they choose some random college graduate looking for a good time.
25
26Therefore, if she only killed John and she would've still written that entry but not had any romantic relations with the family left behind in her world and think about giving up her spot. So in the end we see Earth 2 Rhoda coming to Earth 1, as a chance for escape or a new beginning.

28[[WMG:Earth 2 is related to Miri]]
29Whatever phenomenon that duplicated Earth is the one that does the same in the ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'' episode "Miri."

31[[WMG:The premise could be the result of two {{Alternate Timeline}}s/[[AlternateUniverse Universes]] [[MergedReality merging into one another.]]]]
