In minute 86 of Everything Everywhere All at Once, Jobu finishes singing “somewhere out there in all that noise.” Waymond shakes Evelyn calling for help as the camera pulls up and away. Title card: “THE END.” It fades. Next card: “written and directed by Daniels.” Then “produced by Alexander Wong, Evelyn Quan.” Cards retreat—no, WE’RE retreating from a movie screen. We see the theater audience. Two more cards: “Starring” then “Evelyn Quan.” Cut to Wong Kar Wai Evelyn waking in her seat—she IS Evelyn Kwan (her maiden name, unmarried to Waymond here). She checks herself, can’t believe she’s alive. Everyone claps. Foxy Waymond puzzled, stops early: “interesting ending, but very sad.” Evelyn bolts up: “where is she?” Shakes Waymond: “where’s our daughter?” Before he answers she runs Cinderella-style up aisle to exit. Waymond stands: “daughter?” Evelyn pushes through doors—now Pizza Evelyn stumbling into street, car coming at her (license plate 2SAM564—common prop plate). Cut to Opera Evelyn falling onstage. Microphone-feedback sound (but more musical, unnameable). All the Evelyns are experiencing something.
