The bulk of the movie takes place in an abandoned warehouse, where two men and two women have barricaded themselves in while awaiting rescue. Though they spend days trapped together, the two women - Ix and Julie - seemingly don't converse with one another at all. The closest this comes to passing the test is when Ix goes into diabetic shock and passes out; Julie tries to revive her. Needless to say, it easily passes the reverse Bechdel - Jim and Scott talk to one another on numerous occasions.
