OTHERWISE = DIFFERENT ?

Dear Teachers,

1. - Why don't you call Clive? He has Mary's number.

- I've tried. But no one answered.

- You are so dead.

- What does "you're so dead" mean?

2. - Keep back / back up. Otherwise I will kill her.

- Forward! give them a big beat.

- Are these natural?

3. "The truth is quite different" and "The truth is quite otherwise"

- Are these the same meaning?

Thanks very much to Teachers,

Stevenukd.
