Dear Mr. Gacy Page #5

Synopsis: 1993. Overachieving college student Jason Moss, fascinated by serial crime, decides to write his criminology class term paper on John Wayne Gacy, who is on death row and scheduled to be executed in six months time. Jason's criminology professor, Mr. Harris, will only allow Jason to write his paper on Gacy if Jason can come up with a fresh angle, as he himself believes the topic of serial killers is already overexposed. After writing Gacy a nondescript letter and receiving a questionnaire from Gacy in return, Jason believes the fresh angle would be truly to get inside Gacy's head, specifically to learn what makes him tick, by presenting himself in subsequent correspondence to Gacy as Gacy's "type", i.e. a vulnerable young man from a dysfunctional family and thus who is possibly at risk. Despite the advice that he needs to watch out for cunning Gacy, Jason is certain he can outsmart the serial criminal at his own game. Things take an unexpected turn for Jason when he starts receiving tel

but the Bible preaches against

taking your own life.

Then again,

sometimes it's the right thing to do.

Jason, your life will hit

rock bottom some day.

And when the time is right, you'll know

what to do and how to do it.

But don't worry, Jason.

I'm here for you.

I'm your friend,

your only friend right now.

~ Fall on your knees ~

~ O, hear the ~

~ Angels' voices ~

~ O night ~

~ Divine... ~

It's kind of tough around here.

A guy can't even get off in peace.

I got 24-hour whack-off patrol

up my ass.

So listen, John...

can I ask you something?

Do you feel any remorse

for killing all those boys?

Jason, I never killed anyone.

Look, I took three

and a half hours of truth serum

and they found that I had no knowledge

whatsoever of the crimes.

Yeah yeah, but would you

feel bad if you did?

Why would I feel bad?

Those hustling b*tches got

what they deserved.

Nobody asked them to go out there

on the streets selling their asses.

They were just begging to be killed

and that's exactly what they got.

No, but they weren't

all prostitutes, John.

There were other kids too.

What kids?

I don't know what you're talking about.

How did you lure them

into your house?

What was your method?

You can get anyone

to do anything you want

if you play on their fear.

And the feeling of energy

you get from someone's fear

is unlike anything

you could ever imagine.

Tell me about that.

I don't want to talk

about all this negative bullshit.

What I want to talk about is that skimpy

letter your brother Alex sent me.

I thought you told him

that I wanted more details.

I did, I did, John.

But he... you know, he's stubborn.

I can't control him.

He does whatever he wants.

Oh really?

Well, you said to me,

and I quote:

"My brother looks up to me

like I'm a hero.

When I tell him to jump,

he says, 'How high?"'

Well, he hasn't been

in the best of moods lately, John.

He keeps getting his ass kicked every day,

so just cut the kid some slack.

What the f*** is

he getting his ass kicked for?

What is he, some kind of a p*ssy?

No, he... no, he's not a p*ssy.

He just... the other kids are

a lot bigger than him.

Oh, f*** that.

You need to jump in there, Jason.

You need to be a f***ing man.

You get a 2x4 and you crack

this cocksucker's head open if you have to.

You don't want people saying that the Moss

brothers are a bunch of pussies, do you?

No no, of course not.

Oh, Jason,

you and I are a lot alike.

But your brother Alex...

now he's not as strong as us, you know.

So he needs

to be led by example.

And the same thing applies

to the bedroom.

You know?

I've been giving this

a lot of thought lately:

You know, you two,

you can get each other off

just as well as anybody else can.

You know, your brother,

he's in a bad mood

'cause he obviously isn't getting any.

Don't you see what a waste that is?

Nobody would ever have to know.

All you gotta do

is slip into his bed one night and start

rasslin' with him till you get him hard.

And then you let your head

drift down into his crotch,

and then you put it in your mouth.

And then he'll resist

and he'll fight at first.

But after awhile, he'll get into it

and he'll let you finish the job.

You know what, John?

My mom's coming. I gotta go.

F***.

This is Jason. Leave a message.

I'm sorry, sir,

there's no one available at this number.

Please try your call again later.

All right, that's it, people.

Don't forget the due date

of your term paper is coming up

and I am expecting

nothing short of brilliance.

Goodbye.

Jason?

Can I see you for a minute?

So what's up?

You're missing class. And when you are

in class, you don't ask any questions,

not that I miss that.

I think maybe you got involved

with something that...

You're not my father, okay?

I get enough of this sh*t from my parents.

You're gonna get your precious

term paper, but in the meantime,

just get off my back about it.

What?

You have a collect call

from inmate John Gacy

from the Menard Correctional Center.

Will you accept the charges?

- Yeah, I accept.

- Thank you.

Jason, where the hell have you been?

I've been calling you for days.

Well, I've been busy, John. Okay?

I have a life, you know?

What did you do?

You find someone else?

- What are you talking about?

- What are you, writing to another inmate?

What, I'm not good enough

for you anymore?

John, John, it's not like that, okay?

You think you can just ignore me?

That's not how it works.

You don't play both ends against

the middle with me, you little sh*t.

- I won't tolerate it!

- Hey hey hey, John,

just calm down.

Do you have any idea who I am

and what I'm capable of?

Because I know who you are

and where you live.

For all you know, I could have

somebody sitting outside right now

watching you and your family.

What are you talking about?

You know exactly what

I'm talking about.

Don't play me, Jason.

Remember who I am.

How could I forget?

And don't go taking your friendship

away from me

and I won't have to take something

away from you, you got it?

Yeah, I got it.

Remember who I am.

Always remember who I am.

F***.

F***!

F***.

Oh, you think you scare me, huh?

You think you scare me?

Huh? Well, I got you, you f***.

FBI!

On the f***ing ground.

Put your f***ing hands up!

On the ground!

Who are you talking to?

No one.

Why isn't the car washed? I asked you to

wash the car before we left for Grandma's.

- I am not going to Grandma's.

- What do you mean, you're not going?

It means I'm not going!

Look, I just have a lot of important things

on my plate right now.

I can't be worried about going

to Grandma's house.

- Oh really?

- Yeah.

Well, then maybe your father

and I should stop worrying

about paying the bills around here

and you can start fending for yourself.

Yeah, maybe you should.

F***.

Hey, where are you going

in such a hurry, f*ggot?

- None of your business.

- Huh?

- F*** off, Marcus.

- Come on, man.

Get the f*** out of my face.

Oh, you're f***ing dead.

- Hey hey!

- Jason, what the heck?

Jason, that's enough!

Stop!

Stop it, let's go!

- Hey! Hey, you two!

- Come on.

Ah!

Hey, Jason.

Jason?

- What's with him?

- What else is new?

Where have you guys been?

You know I wanted

to leave before it gets too dark.

We got held up.

Why does he get to stay?

Because your brother's going through

some teenage life crisis.

Go get your bag.

Let's go.

Sure, let's just worry

about psycho Jason.

Go get your bag.

Go!

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Jesus!

What are you doing here?

What are you doing with a gun?

Well, there's been

a bunch of break-ins,

so we... we got it

to protect ourselves.

Oh.

Hey, do you want

to come in for a second?

I mean, as long as you're here,

you know?

Okay, just for a second.

Hello?

I have a collect call

from inmate John Gacy.

Yes, I accept.

- Are you f***ing kidding me?

- Go ahead, sir.

Jason, they denied my appeal.

They're gonna kill me
