What's really going on
The promise and the mob are the same idea turned inside out. David offers his son a guarantee no parent can actually keep — 'I won't ever leave you again' — and Billy answers with the one thing he is really afraid of: 'Promise you won't let the monsters get me.' We feel how much that promise means before we see how little control David has. When the group finally moves, Carmody does not attack the plan, she attacks the bond, repeating 'We want the boy.' Faith here is not comfort; it is a demand for blood, and the crowd's fear is what makes it dangerous.
Theme
ParenthoodDavid protects his son with a promise, and the story tests how much a father can actually control.

このシーンについての質問
Why does David promise Billy he will never leave him?
He left Billy briefly to help search the store, and the boy was terrified. After the terror of the night, David wants to give him something firm to hold on to, even though nobody can truly promise it.
Does David keep his promise to Billy?
The film spends its whole ending on that question. David stays with the boy to the very last scenes, and the horror comes from what staying faithful to him ends up costing.
Why does Mrs. Carmody want the boy?
She reads the disaster as divine punishment and argues that the blood of expiation must come from the non-believers. She points the crowd at Billy because he is the most vulnerable target.
Who shoots Mrs. Carmody, and why?
Ollie Weeks shoots her. When the mob moves to seize Billy, he acts to stop the sacrifice, then tells David he would not have fired if there had been any other way.
Why do the other survivors turn on David and Billy?
Carmody convinces them that the people who refuse to submit to God brought the creatures on everyone. Fear does the rest, and the crowd follows her lead against David's family.
