Corrected entry: When the "first" Sam gets his hand burned by the hot water, he gets a burn because he sees a girl dressed in yellow with long dark hair sitting on his chair. We don't get an explanation as to who she was (not his wife or daughter because they are blond, and he doesn't know her as a 15-year-old).

Correction: The director has stated in interviews that the hallucinated girl is Sam's daughter at her current age (14-15). He sees this through a sort of clone/twin telepathy.

Correction: Not being given an explanation for something is not a plot hole, which is best defined as something happening that benefits the plot while making no sense within the context of the film and established characters. Sam is hallucinating; the identity of the person that he's seeing is largely irrelevant to the plot and to provide a detailed explanation would simply have taken up valuable screen time and just sounded like an unnecessary exposition dump, disrupting the flow of the movie.
