Overview
A ten-year-old boy has nightmares about the world ending. And when he asks his parents if it could actually happen, they just argue. He can sense that his father and mother are no longer happy together. And suddenly, the house begins to creak and groan, while the ceiling cracks and slowly collapses onto the sofa.
