I couldn’t find anything specific in the Recapy supplied context about the scene where the Platt family first reacts when Oak Street vanishes. Based on recent plot summaries and the official trailer, here’s what happens when the neighborhood disappears:
When Oak Street first vanishes:
- The Platts are going about a routine drive when suddenly the road ends at a cliff, revealing that their neighborhood has been ripped from familiar suburbia and dropped into an unknown, prehistoric landscape.
- Denise Platt (Anne Hathaway) tries to explain to her son—and by extension the rest of the family—that their house, street, and almost everything they once knew has “moved,” which sparks confusion and panic.
So briefly: their first response is shock and confusion, followed by a panicked attempt to understand what just happened to their home.
If you want, I can break down what each family member does in that moment—parents versus kids—for more detail.
