But recently, the neighbours are on high alert - whenever they see someone they don't think looks safe, they take matters into their own hands, often calling the cops without reason. Alex starts taking on more shifts at the local ice cream shop and spending time with his girlfriend. But then he starts experiencing visions of the future whenever he touches objects or people around him. And when he picks up a family photo, he has a vision that his younger brother is going to die.
