How does he know you?

No wait, let's get the f***

out of here!

I think that we should

go inside.

What?!

Are you crazy?!

He owns a rifle, Agnes!

Hunting rifle!

It was pointed at my head!

What if he kills you

and rapes me?!

He would have raped you

by now if he wanted to.

I didn't come this far

just to go home!

Come on.

Okay, see you soon.

It's cold out there.

Coffee?

Your father's on his way,

you might as well relax.

Thanks.

How do you know my father?

You were the one

in my backyard.

I think I should be

asking the questions.

What are you doing here?

We're looking for

the missing employee

from the Bates Motel.

And naturally, I know where

this person is.

Do you?

Is this your boyfriend?

- No, this is just...

- No, we're just friends.

- ...Clyde.

- Clyde.

Why was there a bloody mess

in the fridge outside?

There was a bloody mess?

I didn't hear anything about

a bloody mess.

Why didn't you tell me about

the bloody mess?!

What the f*** is that?!

It's fox fur.

I sell 'em.

That bloody mess outside?

Is just an animal carcass

to attract foxes.

You didn't answer the question

about my father.

Dan and I went to

high school together.

Like most people in this town,

he's probably ashamed to be

associated with me.

No one bothers me.

And I don't bother no one.

Your father asked me

not to talk to you about Lily

if you ever came around here.

I didn't kill Lily.

Will you sit down

and hear me out?

Lily was one of the few

employees I got along with.

"Okaytay," would you like

a doughnut?

A drunk like me doesn't have

too many real friends.

But... she didn't make fun of my

name and...

I didn't ogle her...

...too much.

The day Lily died...

Akimbo Tonaka made some last-minute

adjustments to the dragon.

Hey Akimbo,

need some help with this?

He needed Zeke the Geek

to help him.

Sometimes you just gotta

finesse him.

Those two thought

they knew everything.

But if you ask me, they are

a couple of idiots.

Junior, was in a particularly

chipper mood.

I feel asleep sometime after.

My worst memory is something

I don't even recall.

Someone...

must've tampered with

the machine while I was out.

Normally I can handle

my alcohol, you know?

I didn't even drink that much!

Maybe I was at fault for not...

preventing the accident...

murder, whatever.

If someone killed her...

then they also killed those

kids at the bonfire, too.

I didn't kill Lily, I swear.

I can see it in your eyes.

You don't sleep much, either.

Excuse me?

You have nightmares

about her, don't you?

Uh-huh, I'm right.

Ain't I?

See?

That's a sign something

ain't right!

Dammit.

He probably didn't pay

his power bill.

Oh, shut up, Clyde!

I'm just saying, how much

money could you make

in prison hammering

license plates?

Oktay!

Oktay, it's Dan!

Agnes!

Where's Oktay?!

Get out of here!

You two have to leave,

right now!

Go someplace that isn't home.

And keep your phone

turned on.

Breaking news out of

Gradyville, Pennsylvania.

What the f*** just happened?!

A missing employee of the

Bates Motel

and Haunted Hayride

has just been found.

Authorities say Wayne Jacobs,

a long-time employee

of the haunt,

has been found dead

on the banks of the

Delaware River earlier

this morning.

Although Jacobs was found

in 18 different pieces,

his head was identifiable

by family members.

Gradyville Sheriff Dan Rickover

joins us live...

Can you tell me what action

the authorities are taking?

As of right now,

we're not ruling out anything.

What about the death

of Lilly Hansen that occurred

at the Bates Motel

one year ago?

We're looking into

the possibility that

these incidents

may be connected.

The manager of the Bates

Motel and Haunted Hayride

commented on the possible

closure of the farm.

We provide family friendly

entertainment and uh...

depend on the success of the

haunt to keep the banks away.

Thousands of people have already

bought pre-sale tickets.

You know,

this is my family's farm!

You know, over 200 employees are

gonna lose their jobs, like...

don't shut the farm down!

You don't understand!

About a dozen people at

Disneyland have died and...

they're still open.

So... you know, uh...

We'll have more

on this story as it...

That farm always gave me

the creeps.

What'll it be?

Whiskey!

You got it!

Who's doing this?

I think Junior did it.

He's a f***ing creep.

Junior was right next to me

when...

I saw Wayne getting cut up.

And he was with me when

Ben and Hannah got run over.

It could be Junior and Zeke.

What about Akimbo and Zeke.

No way.

Oh, come on.

Akimbo worked on

the fire-breathing dragon

and the table saw scene.

And Zeke was found

coming out of the corn

covered in blood,

the night Ben and Hannah

got chopped up.

I see how they could've

done it, but not why.

What about Oktay?

I mean, he has

the most obvious motive.

He wants revenge on

the Bates Motel.

There's just something about...

how he talked about Lily...

how he knows my dad...

I don't think it was him.

He told us a lot of

information, Agnes.

Almost like he was confessing.

Maybe his partner

got to him before...

before he said too much.

That is some conspiracy

theory.

If Oktay's guilty,

that means that he's working

with an accomplice.

Oh my god, Agnes!

Who showed up right after the

gunshot?!

F*** you!

Think about it!

How can you say that

about my dad?!

Think about it!

No!

He's probably doing it for you!

Clyde, how can you

say these things?!

I don't know!

I'm trying to figure this out,

too, Agnes!

Well, you're not!

Where you going?

I'm leaving!

Get off of me!

- I'm sorry.

- Don't, Clyde!

Stop.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, too.

Two beers.

On the house.

Mrs. Bates?

Little sneaky snake.

You doing a dance?

One year ago...

you and I witnessed the

horrible death of Lily Hansen.

That...

That's something that

we shared together

without even knowing it!

I felt this, um...

What's the word?

Surge?

...of absolute horror in me.

There ain't nothing like it.

Uh...

I was as shocked as anyone

to see Lily on fire.

You see, uh...

Mother... soaked the platform in

gasoline and tied Lily up

Ooh...

I have to fell you that you're

kinda the reason we're here.

Hey.

When I looked into your eyes,

and...

and I experienced

your anguish...

uh...

It's just so hard to explain.

It's something that you gotta

see to understand.

I got something we'll

both enjoy.

You remember Ashley,

dontcha?

Say "hi," Ashley!

She was awfully mean to you

on your, uh... hayride.

So... I saved her as a treat

for this very moment.

You know, what could be...

more terrifying...

than watching someone

slowly die?

Soak it in.

No!

You have to look!

Look!

Open your eyes!

Ow!

That's okay.

That's okay.

This was supposed to be

our moment...

and you ruined it.

But that's all right.

There's something

even better planned.

I have to go help mother put

Clyde on the guillotine.

I'll be right back.
