The Butchering Page #6

It was a face of a child,

a defenseless, misguided child

with an abusive father

and an alcoholic mother.

And yes, there was a pile

of bodies buildin' up

but he was,

he was defenseless.

But one of the guys,

his daughter was in

the hall that night.

He fired one shot in

Tommy Miller's head,

blew the back of his brains out.

But how did the town react?

How would the community react?

We couldn't risk it.

We took him over

there to Goose Creek

and buried the evidence.

When we come back to town,

everybody thought Tommy

Miller disappeared,

roaming the woods.

Jesus, Fred.

I don't know who's

committing these murders

and I don't know why, but

it's not Tommy Miller.

You lied to the very people

that you swore to protect.

We're protecting the town.

You lied to me!

And now the bodies are piling

up left, right and center

because of your f***ing mess

and now I have to clean up

your f***ing mess!

I suggest you

prepare a statement.

(crow cawing)

(thudding)

(sighs)

(haunting music)

(door clicks)

(haunting music)

(thudding)

(clicks)

(phone buzzing)

(haunting music)

(metallic whooshing)

(groaning)

(choking)

(yelling)

(rock music)

What's the chance there's that

somebody forgot to bring food?

50 pieces to the town hall.

How's my hair look?

Ah, you can honestly own it.

Perfect.

(loud rock music)

Ah, ladies, ladies.

Beautiful ladies.

Oh look, even the

gypsies are here.

Now Sarah, there's

no need to talk

about your family like that.

I'm sure we're all here

to have a good time.

If I'd give a sh*t,

I'd go for a comeback.

Have you seen Oliver?

Ah, no I haven't

seen him actually.

Great, just great.

He's not answering his phone.

Sure you know what he's like.

He spends forever on his hair.

Come over here tonight

I want you by my side

So baby, come

over here tonight

Ah Dean, Ronnie, glad

to see the jacko brothers

could make it.

To me, to you, no?

Is that supposed

to be your hair?

Nice try.

Where's the costume?

Right where I left it.

F***in' yay.

(dripping)

(rock music)

Hi guys!

Sorry, sorry for

the interruption.

If I could just have your

attention for a moment.

Well, first of all, I know

what you're all thinking

and you're right.

This is the dress from the

House of Fraser window.

How much was it?

600, get out here!

(laughs)

Anyway, I know we're

all here for fun tonight

but I would just like

to let you all know

the owners of the halls have

instilled a few house rules.

Rule number one, no

underage drinking.

(students booing)

I know, I know.

Rule number two, no

drugs of any kind.

(students booing)

And rule number three,

you will all get arrested

if you don't have

a really good time!

Say, I threw that one in myself.

Okay, well let's party!

(rock music)

Okay this is

Deputy Holland here.

Just at the town hall.

I'm gonna check things out

and report back

in a little while.

(door clicks open)

(water splashing)

I see you're still going

for that 90s goth look,

very grunge chic.

Still beats tart chic.

No need to be bitter.

Bitter?

You know, it's hard

being single and all.

I've been there

myself, it's hard.

You think just 'cause I

don't have a guy on my arm,

I'm deformed?

(sighs)

Think what you want, darling.

(students cheering on)

Wipe me.

You need a break.

Man, have you seen

what the grand prize is?

No, what?

A f***in' iPod Touch.

Now wipe.

Hey.

Hey.

Oh, oh is this the moment?

I need to,

yeah (clicks tongue).

Ethan.

No man, it's too early.

Don't kiss her yet.

Good party?

Yeah, it's good.

Where's your friend?

She's away off

looking for Oliver.

So...

Do you wanna drink or something?

Yeah.

(phone buzzing)

Fenton.

It's Gilbert.

What is it?

Did you hear about this

party that's happening

in the town hall?

Yeah, the kids

do it every year.

I tried to stop them but I

guess bad taste prevailed.

I sent Holland by.

Fenton?

Yeah.

Where'd you go?

Listen, I'm out of time.

I'll meet you at the

town hall in an hour?

I have to talk to

you about something.

Yeah.

All right, yeah.

("Medicine" by Lotus Kane)

I wish love was medicine

I wish love was medicine

I wish love was medicine

I could've healed you

I could've healed you

You know you'd rather

laugh in minutes,

you deserve the ultimate.

I think that's a new record.

Maybe he's not

that bad after all.

I'm sorry, did you just

say what I think you said?

All right, don't rub it in.

Did you open up to the

possibility of liking Danny?

Let's not overdo it.

To err is human.

To forgive, divine.

Hi Sarah.

Hi Sally.

Can I talk to you

for a real second?

Yeah, okay.

What is Sally Desadie

doing talking to Sarah?

I don't know.

I was at the Cafe O' Dierz.

I saw Oliver there.

He was with Claudia.

Sally, what happened?

(door creaking)

Oliver?

Oliver, it's too early for

one of your perverted games.

Come out, for God's sake

or I'm going back inside.

(menacing music)

What are you doing, Claudia?

Kaitlin, when

did you get pretty?

You're here to

see him, aren't you?

Who?

Don't play dumb with me.

I know you've been going

behind Danny's back

and frankly, I think

you're bit of a slut.

Big talk for a

girl with no proof.

But then, again, making

up lies be it from nothing

is something you do best, right?

It's also why you've got a

grand total of zero friends.

I would rather have zero

friends than every STI.

(smacking)

(gasping)

My readers love that.

You're done, Claudia.

No more reunions,

no more parties.

No more boyfriends.

Kaitlin.

Anything in my hair, Claudia?

No, Kaitlin.

What, are you gonna beg?

No, Kaitlin, watch out!

(metallic whooshing)

(menacing music)

(gasps)

Holy sh*t.

(door rattling)

(menacing music)

Sarah, come on, let me in.

I don't want to

talk to anyone, Julie.

You're better than this.

You're better than him.

He's f***in' moonbeam,

you know that.

Don't let him get

the better of you.

Don't let Claudia get

the better of you.

Now come on, open the door.

(door lock clicks)

(menacing music)

(dial tone beeping)

(screams)

(cries)

(yells)

(people cheering)

(thud)

(sobs)

We'll get out of here soon.

You just wanna

head back to mine?

Look.

I don't wanna be alone tonight.

I mean, I can't be alone.

(menacing sound)

Hi guys.

Where were you?

I just went and had a walk.

It's roastin' inside.

You all right, Sarah?

Yeah, I'm fine, Danny.

I'll be fine.

We should start

calling us the second

most messed up

couple tonight, eh?

Now you're sober.

Where are you's going?

We're just gonna head home.

She's not really

up for partying.

Sure, I'll drive ya.

No, really?

- It's all right?

- Julie.

I'll drive you.

All right.

(rock music)

Okay, the coast is clear.

Remind me why

we're doing this now?

It's not even midnight yet.

Sorry, do you want Kaitlin

Voig to get the scoop for us?

You want that

abnormally tall spinster

to get in the way of

us becoming legends?

It's our story, not hers, Dean.
