Part 4/8:
Despite the impending danger, town officials, led by the mayor, prioritize economic stability over the safety of their community, refusing to shut off the contaminated water supply. Ignoring explicit orders, David takes matters into his own hands, shutting off the water and desperately trying to protect his loved ones and remaining townsfolk.
Descent into Chaos
The aftermath of this decision is catastrophic. With communication links severed and horror mounting, David witnesses his neighbors descend into madness—homicidal behavior, mental breakdowns, and rampant violence plague the once-peaceful town. Judy’s attempts to assist patients at the local hospital only deepen their plight as the infection spreads, leading to devastating scenes of familial betrayal and loss.
