It is Maple Street, a quiet, tree-lined residential street in a typical American town. The houses have front porches where people sit and talk to each other across their lawns. STEVE BRAND polishes his car parked in front of his house. His neighbor, DON MARTIN, leans against the fender, watching him. A Good Humor man rides a bicycle and is just stopping to sell some ice cream to a couple of kids. Two women gossip on the front lawn. Another man waters his lawn.
(故事發生在楓樹街,它是一條典型美國小鎮上的居民街,街上十分安靜,道旁種有綠樹。房屋前建有可以供人們閑坐和隔著草地聊天的門廊。史蒂夫·布蘭德正在自家房前擦車。他的鄰居--唐·馬丁,則斜靠在車的擋泥板上看著他忙碌。一名古德赫姆公司的銷售員騎著自行車過來了,他正要停下車向幾個小孩出售冰淇淋。兩名婦女站在門前的草坪上聊八卦。還有一個男人在給草坪澆水。
At this moment one of the boys, TOMMY, looks up and listens to the sound of a tremendous roar from overhead.
這時,一個叫湯米的小男孩聽到頭上空傳來一聲巨響,抬頭望去。
