Watch: Snowpiercer's Melanie Return Destroys Layton's New Eden Dream [EXCLUSIVE CLIP]
Screen Rant has an exclusive clip from Snowpiercer season 3, episode 9, where Melanie Cavill (Jennifer Connelly) reveals to the train that Andre Layton's (Daveed Diggs) New Eden mission is a lie. After Mr. Wilford (Sean Bean) left her for dead on the side of the tracks in Snowpiercer season 2, hope for Melanie's miraculous survival was revived by Wilford himself, who believed that Engineer Cavill somehow managed to find another train to follow Snowpiercer. The super train's crew does locate Melanie and manage to bring her aboard at last — but at what cost?
Layton's crusade to find New Eden was inspired by Melanie, who theorized in Snowpiercer season 2 that parts of the Earth were beginning to warm and could possibly sustain human life. Cavill left Snowpiercer on a solo mission to prove her theory and, during her absence, Mr. Wilford seized control of the train from Layton. After Wilford ensured Melanie couldn't reboard Snowpiercer, which doomed her, Layton and a group of his loyal friends, including Melanie's daughter Alex (Rowan Blanchard), stole Snowpiercer's engine to find Melanie. Instead, they found the elder Cavill's suicide note and her data supporting New Eden's existence. For the next six months, Layton's pirate train traveled the world but was unable to find New Eden or proof that Melanie survived. Desperate to give Snowpiercer hope, Layton deceived the train that New Eden is located in the Horn of Africa. Layton continued this course even after he realized that his vision of New Eden was based on a mistake following a near-death experience.
