"Why the hell would someone do this?" "I think it's a warning..." "Because they know something about me." "Uh..." "I've never told anyone." "It was a long time ago, way before we met." "What?" "I'm Daisy." "I'm the girl Brandon James was obsessed with." "Okay." "I was a minor, so my dad kept my name out of the police reports." "And only my family called me Daisy." "What about Emma's dad?" "You said that things ended badly between you two." "Not this badly." "No." "Kevin worked hard to cope after the attack." "But his memories wouldn't go away, so he went away."

"Maybe we should be afraid." "Bunch of drunk teenagers at a party by the lake where your homegrown killer died." "It's like a natural slasher setting." "So, Audrey, are you having fun tonight?" "Um..." "Yeah, I-I guess." "I just don't know why I'm at the memorial for someone who made my life miserable since, like, fourth grade." "Yeah, Nina could be a first-class bitch." "But it's weird..." "I keep on waiting for her to show up." "Yep." " Drunk, manic, amped up to 11." " And always dragging us into her crazy." "Maybe it's better off she's gone." "Will, are you saying that you're glad that she's dead?" "No, I-I'm just saying our lives will be a little more sane now. [Scoffs]" "Yours will certainly be less complicated." "Em..." "Emma!" "Emma!" "Emma, where you going?" "I can connect a few dots, okay, will?" "All the times that your phone conveniently died." "All the Facebook flirting." "You slept with Nina." "What?" "No." "Look me in the eyes and say that again." "We were on a break." "You said you wanted some time to think." "We were on a break for less than a month." "You know what?" "I'm gonna get a ride home from somebody else." "Wait." "Em..." "Emma will get over it, you know?" "It's not like will's gonna hook up with Nina again." "Wait, is your dad home?" "[Sighs]" "I told people the garage was off-limits." "Be right back." "A party like this, you're actually pretty safe from your typical Jason or Michael Myers type." "Safe?" "But there's a lake." "Hormones, beer." "But we're together." "You know, slasher dude isn't the Terminator, shooting his way through 30 cops in a police precinct." "No." "He's a wolf."

"You look like you want to be alone." "For you, I'll make an exception." "[Scoffs]" "Great." "[Sighs]" "You okay?" "I feel so stupid." "I just..." "I keep thinking that people are good deep down." "Honest, whatever." "You're in high school." "You know that, right?" "What are you doing here?" "I'm avoiding Brooke. [Chuckles]" "[Chuckles] Okay." "But what are you doing here in Lakewood?" "Uh..." "My mom and step-dad died six weeks ago in a car accident." "So, living with my real dad seems marginally better than a state home." "I'm so sorry." "Guess we all got our problems." "But, hey, you seem to have it all together." "Perfect life." "Yeah." "My perfect boyfriend slept with the deceased." "Necrophilia's a problem." "[Chuckles] Yeah." "Wow." "You have a dark mind."

" He could have died!" " Hey, he was the first one to pass out." "It's Wren Lake tradition." "What was that that grabbed me?" "Nobody grabbed you, Spaz." "We just dropped you off." "Emma:" "You were stuck on fishing line." "It didn't feel like fishing line." "It felt like someone was pulling me down." "Noah?" "Noah?" "I'm okay." "I'm okay." "Your friends are great, Emma." "Thank you for the invite." "Come on." "[Dog barking in distance]" "[Pop music playing]" "So, uh..." "I'll see you at school." "Seems likely." "Why is my dad at your house?" "Sheriff Hudson's your dad?" "Because this wasn't awkward enough already." "Noah's still coughing up lake water." "I never should've gone to that stupid party." "No, you had to go." "It's like a one-night-only invite to hell." "Nobody wants to stay, but we're all just a little curious." "I would've asked if you wanted to go, but..." "Audrey, I could have never walked into that party after what happened." "You're so brave." "No." "I'm really not." "I just don't care." "I mean, it sucks that the video got out there, Rachel, but I don't regret it." "I just keep seeing all those comments." "I feel... ugly." "Hey." "Smile." "Because you are beautiful." "Stop." "[Chuckles] Don't." "Stop." "No." "[Indistinct conversations]" "Hey." "Noah Foster, right?" "Yeah." "Uh, guilty." "Well, I mean, not guilty, but..." "[Chuckles] Yes?" "I hear you have a particular interest in Brandon James." "I have a lot of interests." "You mind stopping by the station tomorrow morning before school, answer a few questions?" "Will do, Chief." "Okay." "Audrey:" "Hey." "What was that about?" "Well, I'm guessing he's not convinced that Tyler killed Nina." "He's gonna question everybody." "I'm sure he just figured why not start with the Genius-IQ outcast with the serial-killer fetish?" "[Chuckles] Duh." "He couldn't possibly think that you killed Nina." "Why not?" "I hated the way she treated you." "Hey." "So, you never told me how it ends." "Uh... how what ends?" "The town's horror story." "Does Tyler really kill Nina, or is Brandon James back?" "Um, well..." "You know, you got to remember that the whodunit may not be as important in our story." "So, it's more of a "whydunit"?" "No." "I'm saying you need to forget it's a horror story, that someone might die at every turn." "You see, you have to care if the smokin' hot lit teacher seems a little too interested in his female students." "You have to care if the team wins the big game." "You, uh..." "You have to care if the smart, pretty girl forgives the dumb jock." "Sounds like "Friday Night Lights."" "Exactly." "You root for them." "You love them." "So when they are brutally murdered..." "It hurts." "Emma:" "Hi." "What are you doing here?" "I couldn't sleep last night." "Okay." "And what does that have to do with me?" "It has to do with us." "What do you want from me,Em?" "There's no "us" anymore." "Brooke may have let me into her party, but I really don't think we're going for mani-pedis anytime soon." " I'm not Brooke." " Give it time." "I was there." "At the parking lot." "You filmed me?" "No." "No, it wasn't me." "It was Nina, okay?" "We were just messing around, and Nina saw you guys parked, and I didn't even realize it was you until..." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Wait." "So, this whole "let's be friends again" thing is because you felt guilty?" "You bitch." "[Sobs]" "[Cellphone rings]" "Hello?" "Man:" "Hello, Emma." "Who is this?" "A friend." "Sorry, I'm not in the mood." "Why are you crying?" "What?" "I hate to see you so sad." "Are you watching me?" "It's what you want, right?" "On Instagram and Facebook." "Perfect smiles, perfect lives." "But I know the truth." "Who the hell is this?" "I'm the one that's gonna lift the mask." "[Click]" "Noah:" "I don't know, Riley." "You know, I think about this stuff." "You really want to know how it ends?" "Let me tell you." "Everyone has secrets." "Everyone tells lies." "[Sighs]" "Noah:" "And everyone is fair game..."
