Read the excerpt from act 1 of The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street. As they suddenly start toward the house. In this brief fraction of a moment they take the first step toward performing a
metamorphosis that changes people from a group into a mob. They begin to head purposefully across the street
toward the house at the end. Steve stands in front of them. For a moment their fear almost turns their walk into a wild
stampede but Steve's voice, loud, incisive and commanding makes them stop.
STEVE
Wait a minute... wait a minute! Let's not be a mob!
The people stop as a group, seem to pause for a moment and then much more quietly and slowly start to walk across
the street.
What is Steve's perspective about the group approaching Les Goodman's house?
O He hopes the mob will scare Goodman.
O He fears for Goodman's safety in the mob.
O He hopes that Goodman caused the outage.
O He fears for his own safety in the mob.
