- Angst? What Angst?: In-Universe and a Discussed Trope. The movie opens with the death of a pilot named Joe, and immediately the pilots go around asking "Who's Joe?" and celebrate anyway though they mourn privately. Bonnie is horrified at their seeming callousness, but Geoff points out that theirs is a high-stress life and ostentatious mourning won't bring Joe back.
