Scream

You can't do a slasher movie as a TV Series.

Ever heard of Brandon James? Who's Brandon James?

He's Lakewood's very own Freddy Krueger,

and, last year, his curse returned from the dead.

Then the murders started.

Nina. Rachel.

Even my girlfriend, Riley.

Brooke almost bought the farm, too.

Aah! A few times, actually.

You slept with Nina?

After Will cheated on Emma, she fell for Kieran,

but the killer wasn't a fan.

And Emma went a little bonkers.

Then there was Piper Shaw, who rode into town

True Crime podcast in hand.

She turned out to be Emma's half-sister.

Piper. Hey, sis.

Aah! No!

I have one more surprise for you.

Thankfully, my BFF Audrey put a bullet

in Piper's chest, and Emma finished her off.

But what about that cliffhanger?

Piper told Emma she had one more surprise for her.

Piper!

Why is your DNA on the inside of the mask?

I'm still wondering who was wearing the mask

that night... am I just overthinking it?

Hey there, girl. So, my date tonight... hot but dumb.

He completely judged my ringtone.

Ringtone mockery aside,

you think you'll hook up with him again?

Becca, please, I'm not you. I don't "hook up."

Oh, stop. It was only that once.

Butterscotch? Wait a sec. Where's Butterscotch?

I'll call you back, okay?

Butterscotch?

Butterscotch?

Butterscotch?

Kitty?

Kitty?

Butterscotch?

Butterscotch?

Hey! There you are.

Hey. Come to me, girl. How'd you do that, huh?

- Call Becca. - Calling Becca.

Becca!

That's not funny! Really?

What about this?

Is that funny? No.

Why are you doing this? Why?

Because I'm so sick of your slut-shaming!

Are you okay?

Hey, did you just send me some creepy texts?

I wouldn't put it past a creepy guy like me, but no. What were they?

Some sleazoid texted me.

He was trying to scare me. Huh, that's weird.

Hey, I was actually about to head out to Emma's welcome home party,

and I figured maybe I could swing by and we could just caravan over together.

Sounds like a plan.

Is it a bad idea to ask Emma to interview for the podcast tonight?

The welcome home party would make the perfect sound bed.

Noah, that's a horrible idea.

No talking about your podcast or the incident.

Okay, which incident are we not talking about?

All the murder stuff, or what happened to her at school after?

Either. Neither. Don't freak her out.

Okay, okay, okay. I'm on my way.

- I'm so freaked out. - I know!

- It was insane! - You're telling me.

No more fun to be had here, guys.

You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here.

Thank you.

Oh! Sorry, dude.

It's okay. I didn't know if anyone was here.

No way. You're that...

Audrey, right? The badass that shot Piper Shaw in the head?

Technically, not the one who shot her in the head.

We both go to George Washington, but you don't know me. Can I get a pic?

Sure. It's lame, I know. It's just...

You really impress me, dude, and I hate everyone.

Thanks. Sure.

Um, the front door needs a key.

Um, can't find the key. I can walk you out the back?

It's so crazy how no one even suspected Piper, right? That's what everyone says.

You know, that's what they say.

Hey! Who did that?

Some moron must've snuck in...

Get out of the booth, idiot! We're closed!

The keys, the keys!

We have to get out of here. Someone's wearing the mask and he's trying to...

Audrey! Audrey! Hey!

Audrey! Audrey!

She stabbed me.

She stabbed me!

What? Oh, my God! What did you do?

You're alive?

It was a prank!

What? A prank, a prank!

Get up, get up. You're okay. Get up.

Come on, come on. Get up, get up. You'll be okay. It's okay. Get up.

Behind the tape, please.

Is he okay?

Him? He's got a small puncture wound.

The strappy thing holding his camera deflected the blade just enough.

He's going to be fine, and you seem fine, too.

So, I think we're just about done here.

She gets a license to kill 'cause she shot Piper?

I know you're new here, officer, and from a big city, or whatever...

Actually, I'm from Lakewood originally.

Then, you should know, around here, someone gets stabbed,

someone gets arrested. Uh, that's not true.

Plus, you two attacked me. It was a joke!

Less of a crime, more of a Tosh.0 clip. Right.

So, goofball assault versus desperate act of self-defense.

Desperate act of self-defense wins.

And you were live streaming, so she's got evidence to win a civil suit.

My advice... walk away.

Audrey just broke the Internet, again.

Yeah, and not a word to Emma. Okay? It's her first night back.

We don't want to freak her into another meltdown.

She probably already saw it. My phone has been blowing up for, like, an hour.

Hey! I've got our Internet hero.

Oh! That was awesome, bi-otch. Up high.

Yeah, get this out of your system now, Jake.

There's no post-gaming when Emma gets here.

Not a word, Jake, not a word!

She just texted. She'll be here in a minute.

Sandalwood, a hint of citrus...

Someone's very excited to see Emma this evening.

Beer in the fridge? Yes, please!

You're a tough bitch, Audrey.

I thought they broke up.

They did, sorta. It's complicated.

But you and I are going to have to find another crash pad

for "Brooke and Jake's special time."

Well, my parents fly out to Mexico tomorrow morning.

Maybe you could come by before school?

Hm, I have a better idea.

That's her.

Come on, get ready. Light the candle.

Hey, Em. Hey.

Welcome back.

What's taking so long out there?

Jake, shut up!

Are you wearing cologne? Maybe.

NOAH, JAKE: Hey!

Welcome home, girl interrupted! Tact.

No, it's a compliment 'cause Angelina's hot.

Guys, it's okay. I had some issues and I dealt with them.

And, now, I'm back here because I want to get back to normal.

Okay? It would really suck if you guys started acting all weird around me.

It's really good to have you home.

I love you.

It's so good to have you back. Hey!

So, how long are they gonna let you live here on your own?

My aunt Tina's supposed to check on me once a week, but she's a flake.

I haven't seen her in a month.

Thank you for tonight.

And for keeping in touch.

It means a lot.

We said we were still friends.

What friends don't write, right?

I told my mom I was spending the night at Audrey's house, but...

Just stick around here. Yeah.

We could... Talk.

Cool.

Uh, pay no attention to the incredibly awkward entrance

by the gawky comic relief guy with zero timing.

It's a school night. We should wrap this puppy up.

Noah Foster, killer of parties.

Well, at least some things are how I left them.

It's your first night back, so I'll let that one slide...

If... If what?

If you let me interview you for my podcast. You're the only one of the Lakewood Six

who hasn't been on it yet. The Lakewood Six?

Yeah, that's what everyone's been calling us recently.

I coined it, actually. It caught on pretty quick.

It's not genius or anything, but it's catchy.

Noah, I have to let all of that stuff go.

I get it. It's just...

that was the biggest thing that ever happened to us.

Yeah, and the worst.

You know, to be honest, I have never listened to your podcast.

Sorry.

- Hello? - How was the party?

You too can menace girls for just 99 cents with this nifty voice modulator app.

You're funny. I'm really just bored.

Don't hang up on me! I was nice enough to wait until you were alone.

Thought you could get away with murder, didn't you? Well, you can't.

Did you like the feeling of that ice pick in your hand?

Do you like being a creeper? I like torturing you.

After what you did, you deserve it.

Looks like those two at the movie theater

met up on the comment section of my podcast.

Yet another reason to reconsider inheriting a psycho killer's web legacy.

Hey! The Morgue is not her podcast. I'm just co-opting her listeners.

Right now, I'm using it to help figure out exactly who those pranksters were.

So, be grateful. The girl's name is Hayley,

and she apparently goes to our school, but how are you doing this?

They got into a back-and-forth with a bunch of nasty trolls,
