I would not call the scene where they hid in an airplane a plot hole but


How the heck did they unscrew the screws from the wrong side. As I said this can't be classified as a plot hole, it is more of a physical impossibility.

Since screws are made with a slot on one end so you have a place to insert the screwdriver and we can see that there are only slots on only one end of the screw (I even paused to be sure) can anyone explain why or how it is possible to un-screw screws from the wrong side? Can anyone explain why it isn't physically impossible

Since 1950 all but two mass shootings happened in gun free zones, notice a pattern?

Maybe they could drill it out from the other side? Find where the screw is, start removing material with a drill bit, when it catches onto the screw it might start twisting it.

Yes, you could make a drill bit that did that (along similar lines to the drill bits you can get to help remove old screws/bolts where the slot has gone).
