Meanwhile, Regan heads back into the basement, where she finds a large speaker, which she intends to use as a frequency amplifier to fend off the creatures. She tells the two of them to stay outside whilst she heads inside the burning barn to retrieve the air tank, which she does without incident. With her newborn baby wrapped around her, Evelyn heads upstairs from the basement with Regan and Marcus. Fortunately, the officer from earlier begins firing rounds at the creature, which doesn't kill it, but provides enough of a distraction for the Abbott family to escape. They notice Evelyn, Marcus, and Beau hiding behind a flipped over police car and race towards them, with the creature not far behind. The creature follows Lee and Regan out the back door and down the street.
Lee and Regan are forced to flee out the back as the two teens' cellphone rings, alerting the creature of their location, as it comes crashing through the window. As one of the creatures passes by the shop, Lee places his hand over the mouth of a man mumbling prayers in a hushed tone. They notice two kids attempting to call their mom, but they lose cell reception. Along with several other people, Lee and Regan quietly take cover. Lee and Regan notice Evelyn, Marcus, and Beau on the side of the road, but they're forced to take shelter inside a local store, as being on the streets is too dangerous. She is forced to put the car in reverse when a bus with a creature hanging out the window comes barreling down the street. One of the creatures then attacks the car ahead of them, and Evelyn steers away. Lee jumps back in his truck and pulls off.Įvelyn finds herself stuck in traffic with Marcus and Beau.
Almost as if out of nowhere, one of the creatures crashes into the squad car. A fellow officer of the law himself, Lee asks the officer what they're looking at, but they've yet to identify exactly what they're dealing with. Lee and Regan make it to his truck, but he immediately exits upon noticing a squad car pull up behind them. However, he assures to notify Lee if anything comes up. On his way back to the truck, Lee sees Emmett and asks if his brother has said if anything is going on at the base, but Emmett isn't sure. Evelyn takes Marcus and Beau home in the station wagon whilst Lee takes Regan home in his truck parked on Main Street. Suddenly, an unidentifiable object comes hurtling towards the town and the game ends abruptly. Marcus steps up to bat and is visibly nervous.
Emmett shouts out for one of the kids to dive for the plate and asks Regan how to say dive in ASL. Evelyn then signs to him to just breathe and that she loves him. Beau approaches Marcus as he gets ready to bat and hands him a stick of gum. Lee enters the local grocery store and picks up a couple items before heading over to Marcus' baseball game in the park, where he greets Evelyn, who's pushing Beau on the swings, before joining Regan and their neighbor Emmett, in the stands. Forced to venture into the unknown, they quickly realize that the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats that lurk beyond the sand path. Following the deadly events at home, the Abbott family ( Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe) must now face the terrors of the outside world as they continue their fight for survival in silence.
