The ending shows that the male protagonist has been recalled to be a policeman, which can be seen from the words of the police superintendent and the male protagonist's unemployment; as for the mysterious blonde woman, because the final ending shows that she has not been caught, so she and the city hall corrupt police officers Not with the officials. She is just the mastermind of a third-party killer organization.

The corrupt officials of the city hall wanted to destroy the evidence and found the black police officer Kate. Kate was afraid that she would not be able to do so, so she found the blonde woman and named the male protagonist into the water. Blonde planned everything, and Kate finally found out that the witness was still alive and knew that Blonde had missed, so she had to do it herself. The male protagonist said "whether Kate dies or the witness dies, you win", which means that if Kate, the middleman, dies, no one will know that this incident was planned by the blonde woman, and neither does the corrupt city hall officials. , Blonde can get away with it all; if the witness is dead, the villains are safer, including Blonde.

As for why the male protagonist did not hand over the hard drive in the end, it is estimated that it is also because of the existence of the blonde girl. He found that this woman seemed to be able to mobilize the forces in the police station, so the evidence could not be easily turned in until she was eliminated.

The Commuter quotes

  • Sofia: Ricky was a city planner, and some nights he would have to work late, so I-I would go to his office to finish my homework. I was waiting for Ricky by the elevator when these two men show up. I didn't see their faces, but they were looking for Ricky. I hid 'cause I didn't wanna get him in trouble. But they wanted something from him. Then all of them start yelling, and I hear this noise. They were hurting him. I could hear him screaming. And he tells them that he doesn't have it, that it's back at his place.

    Michael MacCauley: You took it.

    Sofia: Of course I took it. I wanted to help. And then I look through the doorway and I see this guy. He's holding Ricky, and he hits him, and he says something about being noble.

    Michael MacCauley: Noble?

    Sofia: He says that doing the right thing will get you killed, and that there's no such thing as being noble. And then, they just... I didn't... I didn't know what to do. I...

    Michael MacCauley: I know.

    Sofia: I just took it, and... and I ran.

    Michael MacCauley: Why didn't you call the police?

    Sofia: I couldn't call the police. The men who killed him were cops.

  • Michael MacCauley: So, I heard something earlier today, a hypothetical question.

    Tony: Uh-huh. What was the question?

    Michael MacCauley: What if someone asked you to do one little thing, something that's meaningless to you, but would affect another passenger on this train? Would you do it?

    Tony: I don't know. What's in it for me?

    Michael MacCauley: $100,000.

    Tony: Absolutely!

    Michael MacCauley: You don't even know what it is.

    Tony: It doesn't matter. Come on.

    Jackson: So, what is that one little thing?

    Michael MacCauley: A passenger on this train doesn't belong. They're carrying a bag, but you don't know what it looks like. All you have to do is find them before they get off.

    Tony: That's it? It's not much to go on, Mike.

    Michael MacCauley: Tell me about it.

    Jackson: And what happens when you find 'em?

    Michael MacCauley: They die. Hypothetically.

    Tony: So what would you do, Mike?

    Michael MacCauley: I'd get all the people left on the train in one car, propose that very scenario.

    Tony: No, no, no, no, no. I mean, would you take the money?

    Michael MacCauley: You know what? I already did.
