I need help like right now

Read the excerpt from The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street.

58. LONG SHOT – STEVE 58.

Based on the evidence in the excerpt, what will most likely happen next?

The crowd will turn against Steve, believing he is an alien in disguise.
Steve will reveal himself to be an invading alien and attack the crowd.
Don will apologize to Steve for falsely accusing Steve of being an alien.
Steve’s wife will save her husband as the crowd begins to attack him.
