The scene in the diner, right after the school attack, is so brilliant! Between Melanie, Mitch, the old know-it-all bird

"Are the birds gonna eat us, Mommy?" is one of the funniest lines I've ever heard
in a drama, particularly as the little boy delivers it with a touch more eagerness
than anxiety.
I'm not crying, you fool, I'm laughing!

I do get anxious when the nervous mother asks the businessman to finish his scotch and water so that he can guide her and and her kids out to the freeway.

Good point. To save time, she should have bought him a bottle of Scotch to drink in the car.

That scene reminded me of my favorite parts of zombie apocalypse movies where there are a group of surviving characters forced together due to the circumstances and how they react to the situation and how they react to each other. They doomsday old guy was funny. The crazy lady that accused Melanie of begin evil scared me. Her face looked evil.
Donna is the only member of filmboards that nimda punished for wanting to leave.
