Founders Day

[BlueFinch Film Releasing music theme]

-Whoo! -

Mother fucker!

Halloween was yesterday, Melissa.

Harold.

Just look at her!

Don't look at me.

Oh, right. You do all of this to blend in?

You're such an asshole.

Why don't you look in the mirror, honey?

You look like a--

Like a what?

Like a what, Dad? - It is very important

how we present ourselves right now.

Like a lesbian?

- Oh, come on. - Fuck you.

I don't care who you like.

- - We all just have to

package ourselves. - Package ourselves.

Yeah. Right.

-You really think that I want to wear

red and blue neckties every day?

You really think that that's my,

that's my personal go-to? -Jesus. And you wonder why

Adam takes extra shifts.

Okay, everyone, just calm down.

Believe it or not, Melissa,

it matters what people think about you.

And the story that you're telling right now

reflects poorly on me and this campaign.

Well, we couldn't have that.

-Melissa? Where are you headed, honey?

I've got some cookies!

Fuck you.

Melissa!

Hey, Ted.

["Number One" by Robin Loxley]

Why do you even bother?

-'Cause I don't like loose ends. Plus, it's low-key interesting.

Did you know

that designated survivors-- -Please stop.

Two minutes.

-Keep the car running. I like this song.

Wish me luck.

- -

- Thank you! Okay, thanks.

One, please.

Oh, sorry, we're closed.

No. What are you doing here?

You know the-- the party's tomorrow night.

Shut up! God.

No, no, no. No. -No, no.

Come on.

Dude, I've had to hear this shit for, like, years.

You said you picked up the...

Yes. Check the booth.

-Thanks for the idea. She's gonna love it.

-Are you sure you don't wanna help me close up?

Please, just for old times' sake?

Mmm...

Sorry, Adam, I don't work here anymore.

No one asked you, Faulkner.

Listen, dude.

I'm the manager... -Manager?

-...and customers... -Oh, wow.

-don't need to see you... -Just because your old man

isn't here tonight doesn't mean you all of a sudden--

hey, yo! -...when they come out here--

She's mine now.

I figured your Ivy League head

would be able to comprehend that.

No, Rob.

He's right.

Thank you.

You got it? - Yeah.

Okay, cool.

-Thanks. See you tomorrow.

Say hi to Melissa for me.

Change! We need change!

Hey... Gladwell.

Gladwell sucks!

[campaigners protesting continues]

Wanna walk?

Mm-hm. Mm-hm.

Me and my dad were talking about Raleigh and he--

Just do me a favor

and skip to the part where you tell me

how it'd all be if things were different.

Hometown girl goes to the big city.

I know how that story ends.

-Okay, first of all, Raleigh is not a big city.

You know you don't have to go.

-Melissa. -Just ride out senior year.

I know your future isn't here or with me, but...

What is that supposed to mean?

I'm not like you, Allison.

I'm landlocked to this town.

Look, I know we're not gonna be together forever,

but could we at least pretend for a few more months?

Just till the end of summer? Or at least graduation?

This is the straightest thing you've ever done.

It was your brother's idea.

- - Here?

- Yep. -What are you doing?

Stop. - Just stay still.

I have an idea. -Are you serious?

-Yeah. -

Oh, yeah, that's perfect.

-Now you're really not going anywhere.

Please stay.

Melissa, I told you...

I-- I know, but...

-Don't make this harder than it already is.

I love you, Allison.

Nothing?

I just... I, uh...

-You know how hard it is for me to talk about my feelings.

-And you know how much I care about you.

So then say it back!

And stay.

Hey!

Are you looking for a show, asshole?!

Don't!

Hey, I'm talking to you!

Melissa, stop!

Hey, come on out, bro!

Yeah, we're up each other's pussies right now.

I can't believe you're missing it.

Melissa. Come back.

Melissa, please come back here.

-It's probably just Tyler jerking off in the woods.

Melissa! No!

Ah, no, no, no, no!

- - Oh, no! Stop!

Melissa?!

No! Melissa!

No, please stop!

- -

Melissa! Melissa!

No!

Get away from me!

Four years!

Four years you had to change this fucking town.

Help!

Help!

Somebody!

Who is that?

Allison Chambers?

They killed her!

-What?! -They killed her!

Killed who?

They killed Melissa!

They killed Melissa!

I got her. I got her.

-She's on our side. -Back the fuck off.

Don't touch me!

Don't touch me!

Get off of me!

Get off! They killed her!

It's WLST, looks like you got

another chilly morning here in Fairwood.

Thanks for starting the day with us.

Hey, did anyone drive down Main Street last night?

Looks like things are really heating up

in the race for mayor.

We're just days away from going to the polls

and I wanted to open up the conversation.

Caller 1, you're Team Gladwell.

Tell me why.

Listen, it's about consistency.

Gladwell's been steering the ship steady for four years.

We don't need some blowhard coming in here

and rocking the boat.

All right. That seems to be the crux of the argument

from the Gladwell camp.
