Dare Me

Previously on "Dare Me"...

That's why I gave you RiRi's part... more time to shine.

Never feel guilty for wanting things.

People will always make you feel guilty for wanting things.

Just tell me the truth for once in your life.

Addy, were you with her last night?

This is about regionals, but this is about you.

This is about you. You just smile,

and then you stab me in the fucking heart.

Nothing's ever enough for you.

- What is it about her? - She isn't you.

If you care about me,

you will do what I ask and leave.

Stand down!

Do you even see me? Am I even here?

This is my life that we're talking about.

You are my life.

It's bad, Addy.

I never gave anything to anyone before.

Not like this.

I never was anything to anyone before.

Not like this.

I never was before.

Now, I am.

He kept texting me. He wouldn't stop.

He said he couldn't live without me,

that he had no reason to keep going.

That's what he said.

It was all falling apart and he didn't know how to fix it.

I didn't know what to do. That's what he said.

What was I supposed to do?

I mean, I was asleep, so I couldn't do anything.

I couldn't even call.

Finally, Madison went to sleep.

And Matt took a sleeping pill. And so I came.

I said I would come, and I did.

And there he was.

I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe all the...

I almost slipped in it.

I didn't though. I didn't touch him.

Addy. Addy, do not touch him.

Don't.

I need... I need to fucking think.

I need to get my head in order.

Wait, what is that?

My phone.

Addy, who's calling you?

It's a text. I get them all the time.

In the middle of the night?

Addy, who is texting you in the middle of the night?

The squad group text.

It's nothing.

What is that?

Those are his teeth.

He did this?

He did this to himself?

Those texts he sent me...

I didn't think he meant them... not like this.

Are they on their way?

Are they coming? Did you call 911?

No, of course not.

What?

Please, no.

Don't touch anything.

We can't be here.

We can never have been here at all.

We need to go.

Are you gonna leave him?

Someone else has to find him.

It's over now.

- Did you see that? - What?

Nothing's there.

- Where's your car? - I caught a taxi.

My car's in the shop. Where's your car?

Pull over. Right here.

But your house is over there.

You think Matt's up?

No.

Are we gonna call the cops now?

It'll be all right.

- They'll find him. - Who?

Someone.

His landlord.

One of his men.

But it was us.

If we call, they're gonna ask

what we were doing there in the middle of the night.

Everything will blow up.

My life... will blow up.

Just forget about this.

Okay? Go home.

Pretend it didn't happen. It's gonna be okay.

I promise.

This doesn't have to touch you. You get that.

I'm so sorry. I was just leaving.

No one saw me.

You're my friend, Addy...

the only friend I ever had.

You're okay.

You're okay. You're okay.

It's what you wanted.

You said "faster."

Come on, man.

Kill. Kill.

Heard the big news.

- What? - Yesterday.

That your life changed forever, right?

Wanna make me say it out loud?

Regionals, girl. Best in the states?

Congratulations, right?

Thanks. Sorry.

We just went a little overboard with the celebrating.

Yeah, for a minute,

I thought you might've landed on your head.

No.

Hey, also, tell me... how does it feel to actually...

I don't know... win something that matters?

Because football hasn't been to state since I was born.

Addy? Addy!

Hello?

- Hi. - Hey.

Seriously.

You okay?

Yeah.

It was just a lot.

No Sarge Will today?

Nah, I guess he's at some other school.

He has a whole territory to cover or something.

Bitch, where you been?

You too good for us now that you slayed at regionals?

- Hey. - Hey.

You guys, did you see it?

It's up? Where?

This way.

Come on. Let's go.

Let's go.

Someone didn't sleep last night.

Still, you never texted me back.

I figured you were mad at me.

Who says I'm not?

We got bigger drama to mine.

It's on. Come on.

Eagles!

Fourth place at regionals.

Having two states for the first time

in our school's storied history.

Our cheerleading squad!

Proving that Sutton Grove Eagles do know how to fly.

Listen, you guys,

the stories I could tell from the front, all right?

The tales of victory, of carnage...

these young women killed the competition.

These young women are bloodthirsty,

and they have a win at states in their sights.

And they will not be stopped.

They will not be stopped until they have

slaughtered every single person in their path!

Okay, now, we all know the woman behind these women,

the queen, the master and commander...

hell, I just refer to her as the general...

Let's give a rousing round of applause

to the indomitable Coach Colette French.

Coach French!

Coach French?

We have... no. We don't have Coach.

Okay, well,

if anyone has earned a day off, it's Coach French, right?

Whatever she's doing, it's well-deserved...

probably laying the bones

of the fallen squads from regionals behind her.

But let's give her one more cheer wherever she is

and make sure she feels the love.

Coach French!

Should've been wearing your hamsa.

What?

Your hamsa bracelet?

The one I gave you?

Bet if you'd been wearing it, you wouldn't have fainted.

I fainted?

They tried to call your mom, but no luck.

Probably out on official police business,

you know, violating rights, forcing confessions.

It's a good thing your BFF was here

to come and look after you.

Come to think of it,

I haven't seen you wear your hamsa in a good, long while.

I wonder where it ran off to.

I think it's at home.

And I don't need protecting.

I just forgot to eat.

Well, lucky for you,

I saved you some celebratory cake.

You girls and your bodies. All you do is abuse yourself.

I abuse myself at least once a day.

This one... her body's a holy temple.

She could probably do with a bit more abuse...

relieve some of that stress.

She looks aggrieved, doesn't she?

Your heart's racing.

- I'm gonna try Mom again. - No.
