The eerie new trailer revisits various traumatic events that have occurred throughout the show's first three seasons, but they are playing in reverse. "Human beings make decisions," Jason Bateman's Marty Byrde narrates over the scenes. "They commit acts — that makes things happen, creates a snowball effect, causes other people to make decisions." "The cycle continues, snowball keeps rolling," Marty adds. "Sometimes people make decisions and you've got to act accordingly, or you can crawl in a hole to die."
