Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Based on the book of the same name, 2021 film We Need To Do Something follows a family of four as they are forced into their (strangely large) bathroom by a tornado siren. Mother Diane (Vinessa Shaw) tries to comfort young Bobby (John James Cronin) while father Robert (Pat Healy) seethes with irritation at being forced into such close quarters for what he thinks is nothing more than a thunderstorm. Meanwhile, Troubled Teen Melissa (Sierra McCormick) sits in the corner on her phone, desperately trying to contact her friend Amy (Lisette Alexis) and feeling somehow responsible for the storm. Once the storm passes, Robert attempts to open the bathroom door - only to find it blocked by a fallen tree. Things get worse from there.

Annoying Younger Sibling: Mel appears to see Bobby as this, but throughout the film she shows that she cares about him. She teases him playfully about enjoying eggs when he's sad, and weeps uncontrollably as he lays dying.

Angrish: Robert is prone to it, especially about "useless asshole technology" like his broken cell phone.

Ambiguous Situation: Was the man outside shot to death by someone else? Or was he attempting to shoot something but was overpowered? Is the dog the family hears outside the deceased family pet Spot? Or is some other monster? Did Mel actually cause the tornado?

The Alcoholic: Robert. At one point he chugs a bottle of Listerine, and later nearly blinds himself by chewing on rubbing alcohol pads.

Adults Are Useless: Played with - in this situation, no one is of much use. However, Robert certainly doesn't make their plight any better.

Awful Wedded Life: Diane and Robert. It's the reason that Diane is having an affair. They were even fighting mere minutes before the tornado sirens go off.
