Killer Kate! (2018)
1
(SKATEBOARD ROLLING) (PENSIVE MUSIC) (INSECTS BUZZING) (VEHICLE APPROACHING) (DOG BARKING) (PENSIVE MUSIC) (LIGHTER CLICKING) (TINO CRYING) (DOOR SCRAPES) (CRYING) Sorry I'm late, but I was thinking. Looks good, Ter. What is this supposed to be? It's the house. (WOOD CLATTERING) (TINO YELPS) And this is Kate. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) Sit down, Terry. You said you were thinking? Yeah. Yes. Okay. So here's the deal. We have four girls staying over. Initially I thought, that's great. Four girls for Kate. Then I remembered all of your beautiful faces. I don't want to starve you of the action, but I have to have the first kill. Call it a quirk. So I'll kick off the festivities by going in alone. Say 10:00, 10:30. At this point, they'll be knee deep in champagne and gone. (TINO SOBBING) Feeling it big time. One of them, perhaps the tallest, will be parched. She'll want water. I know this place like the back of my hand, and I can fit inside the refrigerator... Nope. I'm sorry, I'm gonna stop you right there. I can't. I mean, this is bad. What do you mean? I mean, this is bad. Your plan is bad. The model is bad, it's all bad... The model was for effect, Jimmy. I just smashed it. Do you got a better idea? - Well, you know... - Oh, look out, everyone. - Here comes Jimmy. - Hey, hey, hey. (LAUGHING) Fine, I don't have a better idea. Happy? Look, I know I've said this before but I think it bears repeating in this moment. I have huge concerns (SIGHS) - about this whole thing. - Fuck. Nobody else, I'm alone? I'm talking about crippling cosmic concerns, Dad. BRISKMAN: We're dealing with professionals. (STUTTERS) (LAUGHS) These two? (LAUGHING) (EXASPERATED SIGH) What about the family name, huh? (SNIFFLING) Nobody's thought of that? I mean, even if we get away with this, this is going to follow us forever. You don't think that at all? Karma, have you thought about karma? It's true. What goes around - comes around, okay? - Yeah, yeah! And we are sending an awful lot around with this. And when it comes back, and it's going to come back, it's coming back and it's gonna hit us like a ton of bricks, because we aren't going to be ready because we're sending out a lot and it's coming back to hit us right in the face, okay. Because what goes out there, comes back... What the fuck is he talking about? Hey, hey, you know what? Nobody can get a thought out when you keep interrupting everyone... Only you. - Yeah, yeah, well stop it. - I'm only interrupting you and I should be getting a Nobel Prize for it. They don't give out Nobel Prizes for things... Well whatever fucking... Stop! (PENSIVE MUSIC) We're all on the same team, so just relax and listen up. This is what's gonna happen. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (SIGHS) Uh. What do you want me to do about that? Be creative. Take me to Red Lobster. Okay. Yeah, I can definitely make reservations. Wait, really? This is our first date, and you're gonna take me to Red Lobster? Did you just ask me on a date? (GENTLE MUSIC) (MUMBLES) - Dude. - Hmm? Do something. Ask me what kind of food I like to eat. Or when is good for me - to go. - Oh, oh yeah. Okay. When is good for you? Next weekend? Next weekend? That is awesome We can, uh, yeah. Great. By chance, what are you doing tomorrow? Uh, tomorrow's Halloween. Yeah, it is. It's awesome, isn't it? I have never really been a fan of themed parties, and Halloween is like a themed day, except the theme is, like, witches and goblins and scary things. But like why? You know? Yeah, uh, mm-hm. But look, if you wanna go, that's totally cool. I can make an exception. No, no, That's okay. Next weekend will be great. Okay, I'll let you choose where we go. Well then, we will go to Red Lobster. (LAUGHS) Perfect! Nah, I'm kidding. But they really do have delicious rolls. I'll take your word for it. I'm really excited. Me too. Okay, bye. (LAUGHS) (SIGHS) (PENSIVE MUSIC) (SIGHS) So, how's work? Today was really good, actually. It's a big day tomorrow. I hope you got her a nice gift. Dad, please, let's not do this again. Your sister's getting married, Kate. I have plans. Really? What plans? I'm surprising my friend Trent. Okay. Who the hell is Trent? Well, he's a friend from work. We've known each other for a while. I really like him, Dad. I planned this whole thing on the way over. - Tomorrow's Halloween... - Oh, wow, really? Halloween? It's his favorite holiday. You're gonna have plenty of opportunities to dress up with Trent. Angie's only getting married once. That's optimistic. Angie really needs you there tomorrow. Dad, I just... I can't live with a fractured family, Kate. I would like to spend whatever time I have left with my girls. She could make an effort every once in a while, too. She sent you invitation. Okay, just... Do whatever you want, it's okay, do what you want. Dad. Dad. I'm tired. I'm not lying, I really am just tired. (SIGHS) I love you. I love you, too. Think of your family. I don't ask much. Kate. Get her something nice. (KATE SIGHS) (KATE SIGHS) (PHONE RINGS) Hi! (PHONE BLEEPS) (KATE SIGHS) (PHONE VIBRATES) (PHONE VIBRATES) Hi. What happened? I must be in a bad area or something. Oh, weird. Hi! Hi. Are you coming? Tell me you're coming. - Yes. - Oh, my god, that's amazing. I'm so excited, Kate. Yeah, so how do I get up there? We'll pick you up tomorrow. I knew you'd come, I knew it. I can't believe my little sister is getting married. Believe it. You'll love him, too, he's smart and handsome, and he's funny in a way that you'll appreciate, I hope. We'll pick you up tomorrow at 11AM. Sounds great. - I'll see you then. - 11AM. - Perfect. - Bye! Bye. (GROANS) - Poison. - Okay. Transfers to the champagne bottle. And then they start popping bottles and ah-ha. Okay, how do we get the cork back into the bottle? - I fucked it up again. - There's no fucking up. We're just brainstorming here, so... Okay, brainstorming, what if we take this... Where did you get that? This is how I give Lucy her medication. - Our cat has diabetes? - For like seven years. Three times a day I have to do this. Okay, so let's say I take the poison, put it into the cork, we let it drain in, that way the cork is not distressed, it falls in, sneak attack. My concern is, can I see this for a second? - See how small that is? - I'm not a scientist. - You said brainstorming. - Okay, well, I mean... Is there a way that we can leave the cork in, leave the gold wrapping so that doesn't get touched, - but we go through the glass? - Can I ask you something? Yeah. Do you think Dad was mad or embarrassed of me 'cause I started sobbing at the meeting? Hey hey, don't worry about Dad, nobody's mad at you, okay? - Are you sure? - Yeah, you're a good person. I just feel like I need to watch someone slowly die for regular life experience, you know? You know what? We actually... We really need you to stay behind, you know what I mean? 'Cause we need reinforcements. We need somebody to hold down the fort like you, nobody ever sends the whole crew in, right? I mean, I guess that's a good point, but... I need somebody to figure out how to get the poison into the champagne, you know? - That could be your thing. - Really? That's my, I'm gonna have a thing? - Yeah, you got a thing! - Just my thing? - You've got a thing! - (LAUGHS) Alright! - Yeah! - Okay. - So how do we do it? - Wheels turn, wheels turn. - Got it. - Hit me with it. I call Christine and ask her what she thinks. - I love it. - Alright! - Good thinkin'! - Yeah! There you go, little bro! Alright, let's call Christine. (SOMBER MUSIC) (DOORBELL RINGS) I see you! (LAUGHS) Okay, okay, you're breaking me. Oh, my god, hi! Hi. Gosh, you look the same. That's annoying. You look like you, too. - Oh, I'm sorry, this is... - I'm Sarah. - It's so nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you, too. And this is Mel. The one and only. Wow, that's quite the handshake. So what was that on the phone yesterday about 11AM? - You're early. - It's 10:45. It's basically 11. Okay, well, I have a little bit more packing to do. So do you mind waiting a minute? It's great to see you, Kate. Wow. Not bad, huh? - It's beautiful. - I know, right? I'm a lucky girl. Okay, one sec. Okay. Oh, what's wrong with your suitcase? That sound is horrible. Oh, yeah. The wheel is broken. You can get a new one on Amazon for like 20 bucks. I know, this one's sentimental. Tell me that's the one from Niagara Falls. Ah, the one and only. That thing take a tumble down the fucking waterfall? There'd probably be way more damage than just the one wheel clacking like that. I'm just saying that if the suitcase did drop down the Niagara Falls, there'd probably be more damage than just the one wheel clacking along. That's a very mature inference, Sara. It was the horse drawn carriage. They took off and all the luggage fell out the back. Oh, Dad was pissed. It was a really great trip. - I got it. - Thank you. If the car smells like cigarettes, I'm going to kill the both of you. Okay, then I need a smoke break every 100 miles or two hours, which ever comes first. Shotgun! Oh, no, I want Kate to sit in the front with me. And we're not stopping until we get there. I walked in on a plan to dissolve all of your wishes But I couldn't help your mouth Which I missed by two inches This song sucks. I kind of like the song, Kate. Kate, how's life? How's life? Um... I'm good. And you're still working for the non-profit? - Yeah, how'd you know? - Facebook. Yep. - Renewables, right? - Yeah, renewable energy. ANGIE: That's exciting. My husband and I just had a bunch of solar panels installed on our roof. I love saying it. My husband. (ANGIE GIGGLES) KATE: Well, solar panels aren't exactly the same thing, but it's a good move. They're kinda the same thing, though, right? Solar or whatever. Sure. So, any renewable men in the renewable non-profit? One or two. One or two? Who? Actually, nobody. Oh, okay, well... Well, there is this one guy, he's really nice. I was gonna surprise him for Halloween today, but here I am. Well, I only get married once. That's optimistic. (KATE CHUCKLES) Hey, guys? (OMINOUS MUSIC) Do you think he's following us? It's not a fucking movie, Sara. The guy probably just broke down. His car's like 100 years old. Yeah, you're right, it's probably nothing. So, how do you guys know my sister? - Work. - Both of you? Yeah. Angie teaches English and everyone loves her. I teach math, which is super boring but okay, and Mel is our shop teacher, obviously. Private school kids hate to get their hands dirty, so I basically sit on my ass all day. I thought teaching was about stimulating the kids' attention? I really don't care. It's shop. I put some good music on, drink a little NyQuil, and zone out while a bunch of adolescents attempt to make a cutting board. I actually kinda liked shop. But I guess my teacher made it interesting. Well, my students actually hate me for expecting 15 minutes of homework a night. We got a memo at the beginning of the school year about stripping the children of their ability to explore extracurricular activities with unreasonable homework demands. Did you memorize the memo? I've read it literally a million times. I couldn't believe it. Kids tend to like my class. That's because you're awesome. - Awesome Ange. - (LAUGHS) Wait, what? Ask her. Awesome Ange? We give each student a nickname so we can remember them faster, and I thought it was only fair if we all get one, too. We use alliteration, like Awesome Ange. Or Sunny Sara. And you would be? Mommy Mel. Wow. Oh my god! - Let's do you. - Oh, gosh, no. That's okay. Cool Kate. And you're definitely cool, so I think it works. But it's Kate with a K. (OMINOUS MUSIC) Okay, why is driving so slow? 'Cause we're hot. Hi! This is weird, we should go. Y'all broke down or somethin'? No, just enjoying the view. Please, can we leave? You sure you don't need no help? I got a mechanic just up the road. And a real nice motel, too. Car's not broken. (CAR STARTS) See? Four girls all by themselves. Y'all be careful. Thanks. (TRUCK STARTS) (HAUNTING MUSIC) This is amazing. How much did this place cost, Mel? 75 a night, two bedrooms, three bathrooms. And a real fucking bar. Thank god we didn't book that motel. MEL: Oh, man, that place was a shit-hole. Even in the pictures. Where did you guys find this place? The LA BnB App. I've got the weekend all planned. We'll go hiking, we'll have a patio picnic. I brought six board games. That actually sounds really nice. No, we are not spending the weekend playing board games. I brought alcohol, they have a huge supply. Come on, this story writes itself. Okay, just take it easy tonight, Mel. You too, Sara. Why? Because I don't wanna spend my day tomorrow cleaning up after the two of you. Fine, (CHUCKLES) we'll take it easy. We'll try and take it easy. (LAUGHS) I almost forgot the last part of my plan. No phones. That's a nice idea, Sara, but I can't. I mean, what if he tries to call? You're about to spend the rest of your life with him. I could use the break. (SIGHS) Okay. You're joking, right? Does it look like I'm joking? Is that a trick question? Come on! We're supposed to spend this time together. Yeah, but how am I supposed to make poor choices without my phone? It's the only fun part of a hangover. You know, picking up the pieces, figuring out what happened. I mean, otherwise you're just hungover, right? You guys know what I'm talkin' about. Okay, fine, I'm gonna finish ordering this pizza first. I'm fucking starving. Totally didn't think that would work. You know, this is how people should do their bachelorette party. Calm, easy. Well, don't tell that to the entire cast and crew of Chippendales, they're showing up later. Oh, they're great. I saw 'em in Vegas. They're not actually showing up, are they? (BRANCH SNAPS) (OMINOUS MUSIC) Is everything okay out there? Yeah! The listing says the master bedroom is down the hallway with the crosses, which isn't at all foreboding. Well, Kate and I will share the master, and you two can share the other, yeah? Perfect. (MOODY ELECTRONIC MUSIC) Okay. We're only here for a night. That's right! So, if you unpack, you have repack everything in 16 hours. I hate living out of a suitcase. It's not really living out of a suitcase, if it's only for a night. The whole point of a LA BnB is to be a home away from home. No, it's a cheaper place to stay, and sometimes you get lucky. MAN: We could have been happy! We could have shared this life. WOMAN: Sometimes I don't know which way is up. I've searched and searched, I'm scared of what I'll find! Why can't you understand that? MAN: I understand everything, Helen. MAN: It'll only be a night. MAN: I already told you, mister. We ain't got no rooms available for your people. Wait, what? (GUN FIRES) - Keep the change. - Dumb. WOMAN: Hello? Jimmy, is that you? (SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) (WHISPERING) (SARA GASPS) (WOMAN SCREAMS) Dumb. MAN: It was only three weeks ago when Rinecher driver Robert Waltman molested 16-year-old Nancy Connors. Waltman took the stand today in what has been... - Oh, these fucking assholes... - Shh! You know what they should do for real? They should drag these sickos out into the desert and make the world a better place. Why do you always have to be so violent? I'm not being violent. I'm asking someone else to do it. REPORTER: And now, a tragic development in San Diego. Local hero Petey the Dolphin has died, he was 108. In dolphin years, of course. REPORTER: (laughs) Steve, you are too much. Stay tuned for information on memorial services planned across Southern California and for the National... (GROANS) I can't take it anymore. It literally parodies itself. If only there was some sort of remedy to help us feel better. Oh, if only there was! I say we enjoy this and then raid the kitchen? Should we see if they wanna join us? No, I'm pretty sure Cool Kate doesn't smoke pot. Yeah, they're probably catchin' up. Shit, do you have a lighter? (SOMBER ORCHESTRAL MUSIC) I love how much room we have. Yeah, it's really great. So, how's Dillon? It's Darren. He's fine, he's good. I'm really happy. I'm glad. He's a little, I don't know. We've been together for two years now, and I'm just now realizing that he's a little clingy. They're not gonna be your favorite person every day of the week, you know? Yeah. But, like, he graduated last month with his doctorate, and he flipped out at me for leaving the ceremony early. You left his graduation? Angie, that isn't not a big deal. It is not a big deal. I didn't even wanna go in the first place. It was Florida in September, ungodly humid, and the host had this horrible scratchy voice. Like Aunt Paula, you know? This host was like a year away from that hole in your throat. And Darren's mom, she's a wonderful lady, but she sobs uncontrollably. You know when you're on a plane and a baby is crying and everybody is looking at the parent? That's how everybody was looking at me, because I was with her. His dad's not in the picture. He just kept going on and on about me leaving. He was like, "I put myself through school, "you don't respect me, "how can you love someone and abandon them?" He's dramatic, that's what it is. And I was like, "babe, it was the sweat, "compounded with your mom's sobbing, "compounded with the second-coming of Aunt Paula." But he just didn't get it. I don't know. I have no idea how to accelerate his never-ending adolescence, you know? Wow. What? Was it really that bad? Are you kidding? You weren't even there, how would you know? I mean, even your really dramatic version of the whole thing sounds bearable. Graduations are important, Angie. You can't really make that up to him. I hope you apologized. For what? Did you listen to my story? Yeah, I did, I just think that whatever you're complaining about isn't actually the problem here. You know, I really wanted you here for this weekend, but not if you're gonna be like... Go on, say it. You. Well, at least I'm here. Remind me where you've been the last five years. Come on, Kate. Darren... Oh, no, you just said it's been two years. What's your excuse for the other three? (CLEARS THROAT) Okay. What happened? Things were fine like two seconds ago. Can we just have fun this weekend? I'm trying. Try harder. Guess what I found. Are you sure we're allowed to have that? Better to drink their stash before breaking into mine. And they have a stash, believe you me. Champagne sounds perfect. (DARK ROCK MUSIC) (CORK POPS) (WOMEN YELP AND LAUGH) Give it to me. - Thank you. - Mm-hm. Baby! Oh, no, thank you. Right, more for us. (SARA GIGGLES) Cheers. - Cheers! - Cheers. Hey, can I ask all of you something - that's been bothering me? - Oh, boy. Do you think anybody moves to Waco, Texas just to meet Chip and Joanna Gaines? KATE: The home flipper people? No, they're the Fixer Uppers. The flippers are the other ones in the suits. Well, the guy's in the suit. I don't think anybody moves to Waco, Texas just to meet someone. You move to Waco, Texas only if you absolutely must. Or if you're from there, obviously. Even then, I mean, those kids have gotta be desperate to get outta there. Seriously. Even I couldn't wait to get out after high school. That's for sure. - What's that, Kate? - Oh, nothing. No, you were gonna say something. No. (GASPS) I've got it! Kinky Kate! (FRIENDS LAUGH) In that sweater? (LAUGHS) I highly doubt it. I like this sweater. I just don't think kinky is the right word for you. This tastes strange. Oh, it could have been in there a while, but, I'm a woman of simple pleasures. So am I. My stomach does kinda hurt a little. Power through. SARA: I will, I just, maybe I should eat something. I'm really hungry. I'm right there with you. I hope that pizza guy gets here soon. They might have TUMS or something in the bathroom. Oh, no, it's alright, I'd rather let it pass naturally. Are you one of those people? How did I not know this about you? You end up dependent. No, I mean, so then keep TUMS in every room in your house, and in the car, and in the office. I can't grasp why... So, scientists invent a magic pill that takes the pain away. Are you saying you're better than science, Sara? I'd just rather not... Every time that I have a stomach ache, I take something and then I feel better. So, (LAUGHS) I mean, what are we saying here? I mean, honestly, I just can't grasp, if the cure exists, it seems... Okay, I think you're getting a little bit worked up here. I'm sorry, it's just baffling to me. But hey, it's your... Shit. I just got why they call them TUMS. TUMS, tummy. Yeah, I got it! Okay, I'm gonna go take a look around the house. I never drink this stuff. It's too bubbly. That's ironic. (DOOR CREAKS) (MUFFLED LAUGHTER) (DISTANT CLATTERING) (SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) (DISTANT CLATTERING) (CREAKING) (OMINOUS MUSIC) God damnit. (SIGHS) - Hey. - Hey. Hey, wait, where's your ski mask? We're killing them. Plus, it's your dad's house, no cameras? Yeah, I guess you have a point. Where the fuck is Terry? - Oh, shit. - Dammit, Terry. I guess it's time. Terry's time, we're always on Terry's time. Give him a fuckin' break, you're not down there. Who even knows if they drank enough of that champagne huh? We've gotta go, we've gotta go now. You're right. (WOMEN LAUGH) Hey, you guys, I just saw something strange. Were you looking in the mirror? (LAUGHS) Come on, Mel. I think someone's here. I just found a muddy footprint on the front porch. What? It's probably just trick-or-treaters. I don't know, I don't think that kids would climb up that hill for candy. I would have sucked Barny's dick for a Snickers bar when I was 10. (LAUGHS) Okay. Okay, okay, wait, though. So you're saying there's footprints outside to the door? - Yes. - Okay, okay. - Sara... - Now I'm really freaked out. It's Halloween, she's just trying to scare you. Come on, I don't even like Halloween. Angie, tell them. Nobody's up here, Kate. Wait. Show us. It's just fucking trick-or-treaters, come on. - You weren't kidding. - I told you. Who do you think it is? (WOLF HOWLS) (DOG BARKS) - Guys. - What? (SARA GROANS) - Are you okay? - My stomach really hurts. What should we do, what if Kate's right? Okay, everybody just relax, she's trying to scare you. What if she isn't? They're just trick-or-treaters. Come on, if they were just trick-or-treaters, why didn't they knock? Maybe we couldn't hear them over your shrill voice. You're drunk, Mel. We all saw the footprint. What if it's the owners, maybe they're trying to get in? No, the owners would have the keys. This bitch has been complaining... Don't call me that. - Mel... - What is your problem? It's true, she's just trying to upset you, Ange. - She's probably jealous. - I'm not jealous. Same thing happened with Sara's sister. She trying to ruin your bachelorette party. Honestly, Kate, I'm offended. Melanie, stop it. Listen, Mel, I'm not trying to start anything here. I'm the new girl, I get it, that's fine. But we all saw the same thing out there. Someone is here. We should leave. - We should just leave. - Really, really? Do I have to prove that we're alone? SARA: Mel, don't. Don't what? Like I said... (SHARP THUD) (FLESH SQUELCHES) Melanie! (WOMEN YELP) (FLESH SQUELCHES) Holy shit! (DRAMATIC MUSIC) Oh my god, oh my god, Kate, we have to leave. We have to leave. We're gonna die here! What do you want? (SARA SOBS) Kate, come on. You're not getting in here. We already are. (KATE GASPS) (TERRY GRUNTS) I missed. What are we supposed to do? Go get her. Where's your mask? We're killing them. Fuck yeah we are. I like the way it looks. Go! Let us in first! (DOOR RATTLES) Do you think they can get in here? Oh my god. This is it, this is it, we're gonna die in a LA BnB. No, no, no, we're not gonna die. It's gonna be fine, just let me think. (DOOR RATTLES) - Shit. - What happened? Terry missed. Unbelievable, he's gonna blow this whole thing up. - You realize that, right? - No he's not. We're here. - No, no, no, no, no. - Jesus. - Dad just bought those. - So? So they're expensive. Like really expensive, floor to ceiling? That's why we just break one. - No, no, no, no, no! - Jimmy! - No, look... - Cut your fuckin' hand off. If you break that window or you crack a door, or anything, he's gonna kill me. I'm gonna be the one that dies. It's a murder spree, things are bound to get messy. Look, as long as we can mop it up, I'm calm. That's the kinda messy Jimmy likes. But the real issue here, your brother is inside, he's got the house keys and the IQ of a toaster. If we don't find another way in there fast, he's gonna start breaking everything. Yeah. (CAR APPROACHES) That's not good. Hide. (DOOR RATTLES) He left. Oh, thank god. (KNOCKS) That was the front door. We're saved! What? Maybe it's the police or something. Sara, why would you think that? Because if it was one of them, they'd just come inside. Sara, they could just be trying to trick us. (KNOCKS) MAN: Hello? They're here to save us! It's the cops! KATE: Sara, don't. (DOOR CREAKS) (KNOCKS) I told you. They're gone. I don't think this a good idea. I know it's not a good idea. (KNOCKS) Sara, wait. You're not the cops. No shit. What took you so long? I called you guys like 1,000 times. I got lost coming up here. Did you guys order a large sausage pizza? Mel did. (SOBS) Okay? Well, Mel owes me 22.50, plus tip. Mel's dead. (SIGHS) Sure she is. Mel's dead, I'm the cops. Look, can you guys just pay me, so I can get the hell outta here? I mean, my boss has me runnin' all over the town tonight. You know, you guys live in the fuckin' mountains, - and I'm just... - Get inside. Seriously, just give me 22 bucks, I'll get out... Come on! Oh, shit! - What the fuck is happenin'? - I'm so glad you're safe. I'm sorry, I thought he was the cops. I really don't feel good. Excuse me? Hi, hello. What the hell is going on? ANGIE: Those people are trying to kill us. Why don't y'all just run through the front door? They've got the place surrounded. No, but he's got a point, like, why don't we make a run for it? You, you played softball. I played soccer. - I played lacrosse. - Done. - Done? - I mean, you played softball. I played soccer, cute girl play lacrosse. You know what that means? What does it mean, pizza guy? It means we're fast. - (SIGHS) - Wait, wait, wait, wait. What? There's a spiked baseball bat out there waiting for us to do something stupid. Look, you guys can hang around all you like. I've got two more deliveries to make, and if they're not there in 30 minutes, it's free. (SARA SPLUTTERS) Damn! - Sara? - It's not the pizza. How much of that champagne did you have to drink? Oh my god, the champagne. Sara? Wake up. She's not breathing. Feel her pulse. Angie. Sara? Sara, wake up. Sara, wake up. (DARK ELECTRONIC MUSIC) Sara! I'm sorry. No! I'm sorry about your friend too, but we really have to go. Angie. (DOOR CREAKS) (SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) I think we're good. I think we're good. - Let's get the hell outta here. - Hey, pizza guy! You forgot the ranch. (GRUNTS) (ANGIE SCREAMS) (PIANO KEYS CLUNK) Oh, shit! Wait, pizza guy! Sara? (ANGIE WHINES) Hey. That's my name. No shit? Well, then I guess this was meant to be. (LAUGHS) (THUD) (GROANS) My tongue. (SPEAKING IN SLOW MOTION) I bit my fucking tongue. Bite this. (SHARP THUD) (MOODY ELECTRONIC MUSIC) Pizza guy! (YELPS) Slashed the tires. - No! - No, I did. Just look, you can't go anywhere. It's over. What's your name? Sara. (SIGHS) It's over, Sara. You're gonna die. Fuck you! Fuck me? Fuck you. (THUD) (YELPS) Shit, you hit me in the fuckin' eye, Sara! I can't see out of my eye. (SARA PANTS AND SOBS) (AX THUDS) (SARA WHINES) (GRUNTS) (SARA SCREAMS) Hey, Sara. (SARA SOBS) Please, no. Aw, yes, yes, yes, yes. It's over, Sara. (SHARP THUD) (SARA GRUNTS) (SHARP THUDS) (SARA SCREAMS AND SOBS) How's that feel, Sara? (SHARP THUD) (PANTS) Fuck! Fuckin'! (SARA PANTS AND WHINES) No. (SHARP THUD) (CHRISTINE GRUNTS) Sara... (BODY THUDS) Do you think Sara got out okay? I don't know, I didn't hear a car start. Maybe she ran. Maybe. - Is that gonna work? - I... I don't know, I think this is how you do it, right? I guess. I can't really feel anything. I'm so sorry. How many more are there? I don't know, I think just one. There could be more but I haven't seen them. I can't believe they haven't tried to break that door down yet. (SIGHS) Kate? I'm just resting my eyes for a second. You killed that guy. He hurt you. He would have killed us both if he had the chance. Are you hurt? I was just thinking about Niagara Falls with Mom and Dad. I really do miss you. I wasn't just saying that. I miss you, too. (SIGHS) I talk to Dad a few times a year. Holidays, birthdays. I don't think I got a call from you on my last birthday. I was staring at your contact in my phone for about an hour. (SIGHS) I cannot believe we locked our phones in the car. (LAUGHS) How dumb are we? I should leave. I should leave, I should just leave, I can leave. I'm not a killer, right? No, I have asthma. Killers don't have asthma, you know? (GIGGLES) I've had an inhaler in my pocket the entire killing spree. I have carpet on my dashboard, that is very sensible. Killers don't have carpet on their dashboards, okay? I don't even text when I drive. Who am I even talking to? Who am I even talking to? I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go. (CAR STARTS) I mean, I have to kill them whether I want to or not, because they know what I look like, right? Either you kill those girls or you die, or you start a new life somewhere and you never see your father again. I can use the shotgun, it would be effective. It would definitely kill them, but also, pretty grisly, huh? I could just drive away and go. I can go, I can go, I can go, I can go, I can go. I'm gonna use the knife, go in once and then I could even leave the knife there, you know, just goes in and then dead, and they get to keep the knife, they keep the knife. You. You. You look like a killer to me. I'm just gonna take a few minutes to rest my eyes, and then I'm gonna go back in and kill them, okay? (CRICKETS CHIRP) (SOMBER ELECTRONIC MUSIC) I haven't said this before. I'm really sorry that I missed out on so much. It's hard. I brought this for you. Oh my god! Where did you find it? I kept it around after you left. I don't really know why. Thank you. I love him. Dad wanted me to bring you something nice. (CHUCKLES) He's gonna be so upset with me. Why? I haven't called since Christmas. You haven't talked to Dad since last year? I've been busy. How is he doing, is he doing better? Dad's worse, Ange. We just found out. How come nobody told me? I thought you knew. He must hate me. No, he doesn't hate you. The only reason I'm here is because he practically begged me. - Oh. - No, I... (SIGHS) I didn't mean it like that, I just... What did you mean it like? I want to be here. And Dad just wants to see us happy, you know? Nobody hates you, Ange. It's actually the opposite. It's pretty disgusting. (ANGIE LAUGHS) ANGIE: (sighs) I'm tired. Yeah. Yeah, we should... You should get some sleep and I'll stay up, okay? We have a better chance of getting out of here alive if we wait for daylight. Will you wake me up if something happens? KATE: Yeah. (SOMBER PIANO MUSIC) (BIRDS TWEET) ANGIE: Kate? Hey. Hey, how are you feeling? I had the best dream, but I can't remember it now. That's okay. If we get outta here, I wanna go home. - I wanna see Dad. - We'll see Dad. (SIGHS) There has to be an answer here. We can't run. KATE: No. If Sara didn't get away, the car must be broken somehow. There's still at least some... What? We're in the middle of nowhere. You said it yourself, no one's climbing up that hill. They drove here. One of them has to have a set of keys. - Which one? - The one in the house? If he has the keys to the house... Then he has keys to the car. I have to go look. - Take me with you. - No, you're safer here. If he finds me, I'm dead. Alright, come on. (MOODY ELECTRONIC MUSIC) (DOOR CREAKS) Wow. He stayed like that all night. That's crazy. Isn't that crazy? Is he alive? I don't think so. Look at his head. (KEYS CLINK) Come on, Kate. This guy is full of shit. Looking for these? (ANGIE SCREAMS) You know, (CHUCKLES) I gotta say, this really was supposed to go a lot smoother. And I want you to know, please believe me, this was not my idea, not at all. Even so... I have to... Kill you now. (CHUCKLES) Oh, you don't know what this is doing to me. Emotionally, psychologically, all of it, okay? Don't make this harder than it has to be, okay? Deal? You brought this on yourself. Be reasonable, I mean, (CHUCKLES) you saw what we did to your friends? Do you see what we did to yours? They weren't friends. They were family. They were family. (MOODY ELECTRONIC MUSIC) Again, I'm... I am sorry about this, you know? (ANGIE GRUNTS) KATE: Go, I'll be fine, go! Please stop running! I thought we made a deal. I'm a killer, I'm a killer, I'm a killer, I'm a killer. I'm a killer, I'm a killer. (THUD) (KATE GRUNTS) (KATE AND JIMMY GRUNT) (BAT CLUNKS) (THUDS) (JIMMY GRUNTS) Kate! Angie! (THUD) (GRUNTS) (JIMMY COUGHS) (PANTS) (RETCHES AND COUGHS) (JIMMY SPLUTTERS) Oh, god. It hurts. - It hurts so much. - Why are you doing this? - Water. - No way. - Water. - Don't touch me. Can you just pull it out, please? - What's your name? - Jimmy. Oh, god. I can't feel my legs. I know you'll do the right thing here, Jimmy. Why did you do this? We didn't have a choice, okay? He made us do it. Who made you do it? We were supposed to wait for you to drink all the champagne, but Terry went in early and fucked us. He fucked us, he fucked us. I swear, I spent most of the night trying to convince myself to leave. What do you do? I'm a bellhop. KATE: A bellhop? Yeah, at the Motel California. It's my family's place. My Dad owns this house. I know where that motel is. That's where we were thinking of staying, but, but Mel found that LA BnB instead. Yeah, that really hurt his feelings. Well, your prices are too high. I've been telling him that for years. I thought you just said he owns this house? He does. I can see your point. Sometimes I don't know which way is up. What? I'm sorry. (KEYS CLINK) There's a surprise for you in the trunk, and the motel isn't far. Dad just said you'd die. I wonder what he'll say when he meets me. (MOODY ELECTRONIC MUSIC) Look at that. Shouldn't we should call the police? (CAR STARTS) Motel California. Are we going in there? We are not going anywhere. I'll be back. (SHOTGUN COCKS) Oh, yeah, I know. (DOORBELL DINGS) Dad, I know. Yeah, they said they're gonna call when they're finished. So they're probably not done yet. (BELL DINGS) One minute. Give me a minute, please. Yeah, no that's what I'm saying is I wish I wouldn't have pussied out of the whole thing 'cause that chick was so fuckin' hot. Yeah, the one that rented the place. (BELL DINGS) God, if they would have kept her alive, I, I would have... (BELL DINGS) Damnit, one second, Dad. Hi. (MOODY ELECTRONIC MUSIC) (SHOTGUN FIRES) Fuck yeah! How many did you kill? All of them. (FATHER SIGHS) Well, I hear we got some, too. You... Followed us? Who are you? I run the motel, sweetheart. Jimmy's dad. Wasn't easy getting him to agree to this. Terry and Christine, on the other hand, they were mature about it. There was simpler times, sweetheart. I grew up running through these halls, swimming in the pool, meeting the guests. This place has been in my family for generations. That used to mean a lot, you know? Generations. Leaving somethin' for your children. Jimmy. Tino. People are supposed to work and earn their convenience, bitch. You and everybody like you, you think you're entitled to everything. You forget about us. We made this bed and you're fuckin' us in it. You think you can phase me out? Huh? (LAUGHS) No, ma'am. Not me. Not Briskman. LA BnB. L-A-B-N-B. Fuck. Who really wants strangers staying in your house? Who wants to open themselves up to that kind of scrutiny? We do that here, and we want to. It's our job. It's our pleasure. We give you a couple nights in peace, HBO, breakfast from six to ten. We smile when you walk in the front door. We care about you here. Are you kidding? This is the kind of place people sleep with their clothes on and wear flip flops in the shower. You think people actually want to stay here? They don't. You know how long we've been in this town, bitch? Don't call me that. Do you know how many guests have stayed here, bitch? Don't call me that. I have run this motel for more than 30 years. Who gives you the right to take that away from me? Those girls you killed... They have families, they have lives! Casualties for the cause. Martyrs for the masses. And what cause is that exactly? Money? You know, you have a really, really nice fucking house. This is war, sweetheart. The news gave me the idea. A driver for one of those ride share scams was accused of molestation. It was trending. Molestation was trending. Now, you think about that. If we could make the news and taint the LA BnB name, we could win our reputation back. We would have something to leave for the next generation. You did all of this so you could get on the news? You make it grisly enough and you're primetime, baby. If you're primetime, people listen. (GLASS SMASHES) We are primetime, bitch. We're fucking primetime. Who the fuck are you? (SHOTGUN COCKS) I'm Killer Kate. (SHOTGUN FIRES) (BODY CLUNKS) (SIGHS) You're soaked. Hey, I'm really sorry about your bachelorette party. (ANGIE CHUCKLES) It's not your fault. We'll have to tell Mel and Sara's families. Sara just got married. Funerals. Memorials at the school. The news is probably gonna wanna talk to us. I can't wait to see Trent. Who's Trent? This guy from work. I wonder if I'll have to go to court for all those people I killed. I don't even know how that stuff works. It was self-defense, you didn't do anything wrong. (SOMBER PIANO MUSIC) I love you. I love you, too. (KATE AND ANGIE SIGH) Let's go see Dad. Yeah. (CAR STARTS) (MOODY ELECTRONIC MUSIC) Sometimes I feel the end's coming closer Sometimes I feel this black hole inside Sometimes I leave and you take me wrong Sometimes you find the place where I hide Walk away Take the blow Turn around and say it was my fault Don't fear the Sun, been here forever Don't fear the Sun, you'll get to know Don't fear the Sun, been here forever Don't fear the Sun, and let me go Sometimes I dream the nightmare is over Sometimes I see there's blood in your eyes Sometimes I stay and you take me wrong Sometimes you heal my heart with your lies Walk away Take the blow Turn around and say it was my fault Don't fear the Sun, been here forever Don't fear the Sun, you'll get to know Don't fear the Sun, been here forever Don't fear the Sun, and let me go |
