His mother was schizophrenic. Scientists are discovering that mental illness can be passed down through genetics. He starts seeing and hearing things that aren't real. Then he starts suffering from extreme paranoia and compulsion. The doctor tells him and his wife that he's going to need to be institutionalized but says they can go on their annual short vacation first. The impending storm at the very end represents what he, his wife, and his daughter are about to face together when they return home and he gets put away.
