This time around, real-world Alice (Mia Wasikowska) is diagnosed with female hysteria and escapes a mental hospital to return to her friends on the other side of the looking glass. When she makes it through, the Blue Caterpillar (Alan Rickman) tells her she has to embark on a quest to save her "truest friend" the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp) in a race against Time (Sacha Baron Cohen).
