You know what.

Taking the Sheriff's boat, it's bigger.

Hey, hey, I need tools.

Check the Sheriff's cabinet over there.

See you in a bit.

Yeah.

Well Clyde I don't know what

tools you were talking about.

I think you weren't my friend.

What about you Sheriff,

you got any tools?

Oh.

(eerie music)

Oh sh*t.

Oh sh*t.

[Answering Machine] Hi

this is Deputy Clyde,

please leave your message,

I'll get back to you soon, thanks.

Clyde as soon as you get this message

you have to call me back,

alright, this is urgent.

You have to call me back, okay?

Don't talk to anybody in Dibutula, okay?

Especially the Sheriff.

I mean it.

Yes, this is Brenda Gray.

From the Wildlife Ecology Institute.

I need state troopers

here on the double.

Yes I have the right to

order back up alright,

I am working the case here.

Hey!

Listen to me.

People are being killed.

Okay, I need state troopers here.

Right now.

Thank you.

Where are you Clyde?

Beecher's Island.

Beecher's.

Beecher's.

Boy am I glad to see you.

Been trying to get

a hold of you all night.

Where have you been?

Took a little longer over

at the Peterson place

than I thought then I

got the call that these

folks are stuck up here.

Yeah me too, that's why I'm here.

Some knot out back.

I'll show ya.

Grab your flashlight and follow me.

Yes, sir.

(somber piano music)

(electricity flickering)

Where you going?

I'm gonna go check the fuse box.

We had power for a minute there.

Wait don't go by yourself.

It's fine, it's like six in the morning.

Think the boogeymans asleep.

Be careful.

(printer beeping)

Holy sh*t.

Sam.

You are not gonna believe this.

Yeah well you're never gonna believe

what I just found out.

BOTH:
It's the Sheriff.

Have you heard from Clyde?

What?

No, just sit tight I'll

call in the state troopers.

I already called the state troopers,

I'm going to Beecher's Island

it's where I sent your phone.

No just sit tight

until I can get to you.

We don't have time.

Brenda.

Hello?

Dammit.

Alright let's see here.

(electricity buzzing)

Good job, Jason, electrocute yourself.

That's just what we need.

Oh hey.

Man am I glad to see you.

(screaming)

what was that?

Where are Matt and Jason?

Was that one of you?

Jason was checking the

fuse box, where were you?

I was in the bathroom.

It sounded like it came from outside.

Let's all go together.

No, this is safe place, I'm not going.

Fine stay, just don't move.

Hey man what is your problem.

(screaming)

Jason!

Go back, go, go.

(eerie music)

(sobbing)

That looks like a

brutal alligator attack.

Right is that what you think, Matt?

Wait where's Melody?

Melody!

Melody!

(screaming)

Jesus Christ, Kim, shut up.

You're not helping

anything by screaming.

Where were you?

What?

You were not inside with us

when we heard Jason scream.

What are you talking about?

She's right.

I was in the bathroom, I told you that.

Do you think I did this?

No, okay no, we've all just

seen Scream too many times.

No, Claud, don't fall

for it, it was you.

What are you talking about?

I was down at the docks with you.

Whatever got Cassie and John came,

Claud, you guys.

Look it's the same night but

you know me.

You told me I'd kill her.

What was that? Kim!

Come on we have to get here.

No, no, no, don't go back out there.

What are we gonna do, Matt?

Let's just,

just stay inside.

Oh my god, Sheriff.

I'm so happy to see you.

You have no idea what's been

happening, everybody's dead.

Oh my god, Travis is dead.

It's that Matt and he's

crazy, he's insane.

No.

Matt's not the murderer.

(knife thudding)

(hushing)

Clyde.

Clyde.

Oh god, Clyde.

Brenda?

Clyde, it's you.

He put the suit in me.

Okay we gotta get you out of here, Okay?

Stop. Listen.

The Sheriff.

What?

I know, you were right.

CLYDE:
And there's.

What?

I gotta get this off your leg, okay?

Roll over here.

Brenda, Brenda.

It's not Jones.

Yes, yes it is, it is.

It's not just Jones.

Okay look.

We're gonna get him, okay,

we're gonna nail his ass

to the wall, it's okay.

CLYDE:
It's not just him.

What are you talking about?

Huge

white

gator.

Okay well you're losing blood I think

you're going in to shock.

It's his pet.

He raised it.

He told me the whole story.

BRENDA:
What?

Tell me the story.

What did he tell you?

He said.

He took such pride in telling me.

He was chasing a guy through the sewers.

And,

he heard a chirping sound.

(chirping)

Apparently.

Apparently,

there have been legends

of people flushing gators

down the toilet, it's true.

I guess.

He raised it and he

says the only think he

ever had a connection with.

Apparently,

had a pension for human flesh.

What?

Wait.

Wait, he's

trapping humans to feed his gator?

And he seemed to really enjoy it.

But he did this to you, right?

Clyde are you telling me

that the gator is still here?

Okay we,

we have to get you out

of here Clyde, okay?

Hold tight.

Put pressure on it.

I'm gonna get you out of here.

Okay.

This might hurt Clyde.

(steel creaking)

(panting)

I got it.

I got it, Clyde.

I got it, okay.

Clyde?

Clyde?

Clyde?

Clyde?

(alligator hissing)

(alligator growling)

(alligator roaring)

I've seemed to have

misplaced my favorite one.

Bummer.

What are you doing?

Why are you doing this?

Cause I can.

Hush, sh, sh, sh.

This next one's gonna hurt.

(sobbing)

(screaming)

BRENDA:
Kim.

And then there were two.

How funny.

Okay we have to do something cause

I'm about to lose my mind.

Slide a ride, you wanna

go try and fix that boat?

No I'm not going near the water.

I'm not going near that fuse box.

Can't run anywhere cause

we're on a freaking island.

Maybe we could light a fire

and send smoke signals.

(fans powering on)

Is that the power?

The phone.

(eerie music)

(screaming)

(alligator hissing)

(shouting)

(thrilling music)

BRENDA:
What have

you done to Clyde?

What's your next move, huh?

I'm deciding.

Either turn you in or

just kill you right now

you sick piece.

Oh you think that's funny?

I think you're funny.

I sent troopers, they're

on their way right now.

Yeah?

BRENDA:
Yeah.

What are they gonna find, huh?

A very disturbed wildlife

worker with an assault charge

holding a knife and

decorating an officer.

I have all the evidence I

need in a neat little pile

on your desk.

What does that even say?

Says that you're a sad,

twisted sociopath and you have been

for a long time.

That's not nice to call

people names like that.

You're caught.

It's over.

I don't think so.

Jeez, Jones.

Didn't know you were in

to such a body count.

So um,

what are you gonna do with her?

(gun firing)

I don't like loose ends.

You didn't have to do that.

Didn't I?

Yeah, I mean those rich

pricks, they all deserve

what they got, but her?

Hey listen to me, listen to me.

You did such a good job.

I could've never of done

this without you, sweetheart.

You know I'm not gonna lie.

It's been exhilarating.

I mean,
