Just Wait

In a suburb near Tampa, ALYSSA braces for an approaching storm. She organizes valuables and essentials, including her dad’s old speargun. On the phone with her mom, Alyssa opposes her husband Tanner’s decision not to evacuate. When TANNER gets home, she fails to voice her concern. Hell or high water, Tanner ain’t leaving. It’s his family’s home. They’ve got a generator. This’ll be fun! When his generator quits, Tanner slips and bangs his head on the floor, and in the dark and escalating crisis, suddenly—there’s a GROWL! Bandaged and bleeding, Tanner still plays protector, driving Alyssa to righteously rage— “Let’s go!” But, it’s too late. The storm outside is too fierce. Rain pours. Anxiety drives Alyssa to prepare for the worst—a flooded home—unaware something scarier than water could enter her home. In the end, Tanner's hubris gets him nearly killed. Alyssa is forced to make a choice.
