VOICE:

(major static)

Campus Security.

CICI:

Hello, I'm calling from the Chi Omega...

VOICE:

(too much static) I'm sorry. I can't hear you. Hello?

Cici eyes the open front door. She inches back to it.

CICA (CONT'D)

Can you hear me now?

VOICE:

We...bad..connec...call back.

The phone goes dead.

CICI:

Sh*t.

Cici redials. The same static.

VOICE:

Hello?

CICI:

I'm calling...

VOICE:

I can't hear you.

Cici peers through the front door, into the house. It's completely empty. Cici steps back

inside the house. The connection becomes much clearer.

CICI:

I'm calling from the Chi Omega house. Someone is harassing me. Hello?

There's no one on the line.

CICI (cont'd)

Sh*t!

SUDDENLY, A FIGURE APPEARS BEHIND HER. A HAND

GRABS HER.

Cici spins around, SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER.

GIRL'S VOICE

Did the phone ring?

Standing before her is DAWNIE, a young girl, sweet, pre- occupied.

CICI:

Jesus, you scared me. What are you doing here?

DAWNIE:

I live here.

CICI:

I thought you were going to the mixer?

DAWNIE:

I had to change. Did anyone call?

CICI:

Just some a**hole trying to scare me.

The front door remains wide open. The phone RINGS. Cici stares at it in her hand.

She doesn't answer it.

DAWNIE:

Are you okay?

Cici nods, answering the phone. ROCK MUSIC BLARES from the receiver.

CICI:

Hello?

DRUNK GIRL (from phone) We need a ride. Taxi! Taxi!

CICI Where are you?

DRUNK GIRL:

(from phone) We're at Grogs and need a ride to Acid Rain.

DAWNIE:

Who is it? Is it Tina?

CICI:

They're at Grogs.

Dawnie grabs the phone, moving into the living room. She moves to a mirror and fusses with

her hair.

DAWNIE:

Tina, it's Dawnie. I'm on my way.

Cici follows her back into the living room.

CICI:

I'll go. I don't mind. Really.

Dawnie hangs up the phone, turning to Cici.

DAWNIE:

Take the next one. You should set the alarm. There's a killer on the loose.

Reflected through the mirror is the foyer. Neither see as a SHROUDED FIGURE appears through

the front door. Dawnie turns back to the mirror just as the FIGURE sweeps into the dark

dining room and out of sight.

Dawnie starts back for the front door. The phone RINGS.

Dawnie grabs it.

DAWNIE (cont'd)

Hello?

MAN'S VOICE

Is Cici there?

DAWNIE:

Who's calling?

MAN'S VOICE

Ted?

Dawnie throws her the phone and races out the door.

DAWNIE (cont'd)

It's your ill-concieved boyfriend. Seeya later. Set the alarm.

She SLAMS the door shut behind her. A second later we hear it lock. Dawnie brings the

phone up to her ear.

CICI:

Hello? Ted?

MAN'S VOICE

No, it's me.

Cici nearly collapses. She's starting to lose it.

CICI:

WHAAAATT?

MAN'S VOICE

Don't forget to set the alarm.

Cici hangs up, throwing the phone across the room. She moves back to the foyer where an alarm

panel is positioned in the wail. She hits a coupla digits and a BEEP is heard as she activates

the alarm.

She checks the door, making sure it's locked, then she turns and moves into the...

DARK DINING ROOM

Cici finds the light switch. CLICK! The room is illuminated. Two long dining tables run the

length of the room. It's empty. Void of the FIGURE.

INT. KITCHEN - SAME

A large, dark kitchen. Cici moves to the frig and opens it, She gives it the once over. The

frig light reflects against her face. She closes the refrigerator, not seeing the SHADOW that

bounces across her back.

Cici moves to a sliding glass door that overlooks the backyard. She checks the lock. Secure.

Then, the phone RINGS.

She turns to the phone that's attached to a nearby wall. It RINGS AGAIN. She reaches for it,

answering it.

CICI:

Hello?

SUDDENLY, TWO HANDS LUNGE OUT OF THE DARKNESS

One finds her neck, the other grabs her by the hair, wrenching her head backwards and

spinning her around, shoving her, pushing her into the...

SLIDING GLASS DOOR

Glass explodes everywhere, shattering to bits as Cici's body crashes through it, setting off

the ALARM A loud, shrill RING resonants through the house as Cici's body lands on the deck

outside. Still. (NOTE: WES DOES REALLY SCARY SH*T HERE.)

CUT TO:

EXT. DELTA ZETA HOUSE - MINUTES LATER

Two doors down from Chi Omega. A big, old Gothic home serves as the Delta Zeta sorority.

MUSIC PLAYS from inside. It sounds like a party.

ENT. DELTA ZETA LIVING ROOM - SANE

The room is filled with fifteen to twenty people. SORORITY GIRLS and FRAT BOYS who SCREAM

and CHEER as they watch four girls who sit on their knees, hands behind their back, in front

of a coffee table devouring plates of macaroni and cheese topped with whipped cream.

Sidney, Hallie, and two other girls, TERI and LUCE tear into the macaroni with all their

might. Gobbling it up, making a mess of themselves. Mickey is next to Hallie, coaching her on.

ON Sid as she finishes her plate.

A whistle BLOWS.

MURPHY (cont'd)

Looks like we have a winner.

Sid sits up. Macaroni and whipped cream is all over her face.

She smiles the victor. Everyone APPLAUDS.

MURPHY (cont'd)

Sidney gets to skip the next round of Bulimia bingo.

Hallie, a face full of grime, eyes Sid.

HALLIE:

You b*tch.

They crack up. Someone passes her a towel. She stands wiping her face, looking across the

room as Derek enters through the front door. She waves at, him. He hurries over.

SIDNEY:

Where have you been'? You missed my shining moment. I won the macaroni sundae binge.

DEREK:

I'm sorry honey. I got behind.

ON HALLIE AND MICKEY

Mickey is cleaning off Hallie's face.

MICKEY:

I don't want you to choke or anything but you're trailing. You need to pick the pace up.

She swats him.

ON SID AND DEREK

Sid and Derek stand arm in arm watching the next round.

SIDNEY:

(complete throw away) Any news?

DEREK:

About what?

SIDNEY:

The forbidden subject.

He shakes his head.

Suddenly, a FRAT BOY pops into the room.

FRAT BOY:

Yo, guys, outside. Something's up at the Chi Omega. Police are everywhere.

People begin to stand, moving to the windows and front door. Sidney looks to Derek.

EXT. DELTA ZETA HOUSE - SAME

Everyone comes flying out of the front door and into the yard as POLICE CARS WHIP BY.

SIRENS BLARING.

ANGLE ON STREET:

Two doors down sits the Chi Omega house crawling with police, ambulances, reporters...

"Yo--let's check it out." "C'mon." The entire crowd takes off in droves down the street.

All except for...

SIDNEY AND DEREK

They stand on the porch, watching as the street becomes a circus. CLOSE ON SIDNEY'S FACE.

She knows.

INT. CHI OMEGA HOUSE - SAME

Captain Tyler, the Sheriff, police, FBI... the house is crawling.

Dewey sifts around on his own, checking things out.

IN THE KITCHEN:

Captain Tyler and the Sheriff stand at the shattered glass door.

SHERIFF:

Lots of blood. But no body.

CAPTAIN TYLER:

Have you checked the...

SHERIFF:

Attic, garage, basement, nothing.

CAPTAIN TYLER:

Take the neighborhood.

The Sheriff turns to his men.

SHERIFF:

Alright men, listen up...

Dewey is all ears.

INT. DELTA ZETA HOUSE - SAME

Derek and Sid stand on the porch, his arms around her. Her face is numb.
