The Butchering Page #4

known as Tommy Miller

has returned to Braxton

remains to be seen.

Of the sources close

to the Braxton...

Braxton Butcher, yeah right.

(door clicks)

(ominous music)

Laura?

(menacing music)

(door clicks shut)

(menacing music)

Laura, are you there?

Laura!

(both scream)

What are you?

You kept calling me?

Are you deaf?

I was gettin' ready.

Where are you going?

I'm going to Paul's.

Do mom and dad know?

Yeah.

Really?

Yeah.

So if I were to phone

mom and dad right now

and tell them you

were going to Paul's,

they'll be fine with this?

If you rang right

now, you'd be a dick.

Get back into your pajamas,

Laura, you're stayin' in.

Oh piss off, Alicia.

Laura, it's

dangerous out there.

Paul's gonna pick me up,

I'll leave now.

So just chill.

It's one night, can

you not, just stay in?

I'll be back at

half at eleven.

You f***in' better be.

Do you have money?

Yes.

Stay safe.

Yeah, yeah be safe.

(door clicks shut)

(thudding)

(haunting music)

[Operator] 999,

what's your emergency?

Hi, this is

probably gonna sound

a bit weird but there was this

man, guy standing

outside my house

awhile ago and

I think he was wearing

some kind of mask.

[Operator] (sighs)

Is this a joke, miss?

No, no.

It's not a joke.

I wouldn't do that.

It's just,

he was staring in at me.

[Operator] Did

you have a light on?

Well, yeah but

I turned it off.

[Operator] Did

he speak to you?

Make any threatening sounds?

Did he scare you in any way?

Well, no but he

was just staring in.

[Operator] Well, right

now I don't know if there's,

I don't know what we can

do for you down there.

I mean, I'm able to put it down.

We can send a car but it

is pretty full tonight.

Are you home alone?

Yes, well no, I mean.

I have a sister and I

guess she'll be home later.

[Operator] Sorry,

well don't be panicking.

We have a few strange ones here,

but most of them are

harmless, you know.

Weekends bring 'em out,

especially this weekend.

Yeah, you're probably right.

But what if I...

[Operator] Don't let last

night make you nervous.

We're treating it as

an isolated incident.

We had a lot of people

using it for pranks tonight.

Sad, but it's true.

Yeah, you're probably right.

[Operator] You know the number

to call if you're worried.

Yeah.

[Operator] Where are you?

Ashley Park.

[Operator] Ashley Park?

We've got cars there all night.

You've nothing to worry about.

Look, you're doing

the right thing.

You're inside, just keep

the doors and windows shut.

All right, thanks.

[Operator] All

right, take care.

Bye, bye.

(dog barking)

("So Right" by Shake!)

(door slams shut)

(door creaks)

(sinister music)

(menacing music)

Leave me alone!

I'll call the police!

Leave me alone!

(menacing music)

(screaming)

(menacing music)

(screaming)

(coughing)

(menacing music)

Look, I'm tellin' ya.

You're too hung up on her.

You gotta put her in the

spank bank and move on.

I don't wanna move on.

(sighs)

I wanna get her back.

I think you're forgetting

a very significant,

slutty obstacle.

What?

You're already seeing

Claudia, you twat.

Yeah well, don't know

about that anymore.

Another fight?

I guess you could say that.

You see, you see.

Your thirst for Julie

has caused problems

in your relationship

with Claudia.

You had your chance with

Julie and you blew it.

Do you wanna

crawl home, Ethan?

Here, you were with her right

until Michael died, right?

Yeah.

Well, we broke up

right after he died.

And why'd you split up?

I don't know.

We're both going

through a lot then.

Eh-eh, it's not even

on the board list.

You and Julie broke up

because of your paranoia.

Well, hold on Ethan.

I was there Danny.

Ollie was there too.

Look, I don't how many

times we had to tell you

that there was nothing going

on between Julie and Michael.

They were friends, that's all.

Julie loved you.

I know.

(sighs)

I know that now.

I mean.

I guess you might

still have a chance.

What do you mean?

I mean for things to go

back to the way they were.

Yeah?

You need to remind

her of a happier time.

Sure you've changed, but

you're willing to change.

Do that and you might

just get her back.

How do you not

have a girlfriend?

Hmph.

(door squeaking)

(door knob creaking)

(knocking)

Ryan?

Hey Jules.

I spoke to Michael's

parents the other day.

Yeah?

How are they?

As expected.

His mum...

Nah I don't think

she'll ever be the same.

What about you?

How are you keepin'?

Yeah, no coke or

heroin use, the sh*t.

Good.

I just worry, that's all.

I know you do and it's sweet.

And I know that if

I ever need to talk,

my hotshot detective uncle's

just a phone call away.

How are you?

Today, could have been easy.

It wasn't.

But I guess the term

occupational hazard applied.

How do your reconcile that?

I mean, all of the

things you're saying,

how do you convince

yourself to just work?

You can't.

And if you can, you're

doing something wrong.

Can I ask you a question?

Sure.

Do you really think he's back?

Honestly, I don't know.

But if he is, I'll

be ready for him.

(phone buzzing)

(chuckling)

Sorry about this.

You've got Fenton, go ahead.

[Man] Fenton, we need

you over at Ashley Park.

It's number 11.

It looks like another stabber.

Ashley?

That's Alicia's house.

Who?

Ask about the victim.

What have we

got on the victim?

[Man] It's another girl, Fen.

It's bad, it's really bad, Ryan.

Jesus Christ.

(sirens wailing)

Wait here.

(somber music)

The neighbors called it in.

They heard screaming.

And the door was open

when we got here.

Don't tell me what I

think you're gonna tell me.

It's the same deal, Fenton.

Fenton, you know how they say,

some things you can't unsee.

(camera clicking)

(somber music)

(baleful music)

Looks like Tommy

hasn't lost his touch.

She's 17.

Jesus Christ, she's 17.

(Will sighs)

You were right.

He's opened up another chapter.

This isn't just a guessing

game anymore, is it Fenton?

Tommy Miller's back for

the kids in this time.

Detectives.

You might wanna come

and take a look at this.

(ominous music)

(baleful music)

(ominous music)

(thud)

(haunting music)

Hi Julie.

Hey Kaitlin.

I'm so sorry.

I know you two were close.

When is this gonna end?

(indistinct chatter)

You're going home.

You're going home,

you're packing some stuff

and you're getting

the f*** outta here.

He f***in' wants me.

If he wants to kill

me, I'm right here.

He's f***in' with me!

That's all this is.

How far does this

have to go, Ryan?

Holy sh*t, did you

see that back there?

Scoop?

You know what this could do

for university application?

We're like this generation's

Woodward and Bernstein.

I know, right.

(menacing music)

F***, Kaitlin.

Amateurs.

First, you're a journalism guy.

Always beware of

who's listening.

Do you think Woodward

and Bernstein

would've been talking that loud?

Please.

You won't be so smug

when we catch Miller.
