Sei con noi, Emily?

Terra chiama Emily
Ripropongo qui la mia proposta postata molto prima che questa domanda passasse da IT-EN a EN-IT e l'altra venisse cancellata (in realtà andava cancellata questa che in realtà sono due domande)
Il riferimento è chiaro:
https://www.lafeltrinelli.it/terra-chiama-luna-avvincente-st...
Trattandosi come dicevo di una trilogia i titoli vanno trasposti in modo tale da avere un filo rosso come nei titoli originali.
Considerato il significato di "hell to pay" diventa un po' difficile. Oltrettutto non conoscendo i contenuti, ogni proposta sarà azzardata.
hell to pay > grossi guai, pagarla cara ecc.
something you say that means someone will be very angry if something happens:
There'll be hell to pay if she doesn't get the money in time.

I titoli originali sono
Heaven to Betsy - Earth to Emily - Hell to pay
(cielo - terra - inferno)

You know it's a play on space-speak "Earth to Moon" (etc.) which has been incorporated into our culture to call someone who's been distracted.
