Vanishing on 7th Street

Corrected entry: The generator in the basement works on petrol but they are almost out of it. However the streets are filled with cars with petrol in them, all they have to do is pump it out of the tanks. They could have power (and thus light) for months with that generator and so take a lot more time figuring out what to do next.

Correction: The generator was never dying due to the lack of petrol, the reason was because the electric charge was fading. This is confirmed in the scene where Paul takes a look inside it to identify the problem. After Rosemary points out that there actually is plenty of petrol (showing her with a bunch of cans with petrol on a shelf), Paul says that it doesn't matter, as the electric charge is fading anyway.

Factual error: When Luke puts the starting cables on the battery of the pick-up truck sparks fly from the connection. However since he hasn't connected the cables to anything on the other end yet no sparks should be visible. Next to that the battery is nearly dead so there is no power to give the sparks in the first place.
