with our law enforcement

and with each other.

This is a time for remembering,

for mourning.

And now I'd like

to turn the floor over

to Sheriff Welch, if you please.

Thank you, Madam Mayor.

I'd like to stress to everybody

that the most important

thing to do is stay calm

and not make our community

even more vulnerable.

I've consulted with

the state police and the FBI.

And with their help,

a strict curfew of 8:00 p.m.

will be in effect.

[Cellphones ringing]

[Crowd murmurs]

Son of a b*tch!

[Murmuring continues]

- Please, remain calm.

- Curfews can't keep us safe!

What are you hiding, Sheriff?

- What about our missing pets?

- This is exactly what he wants!

Hashtag RememberAl!

RememberAl!

[Chanting] Remember Al!

Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

[Grunting]

[Dramatic music plays]

Hyah!

[Sighs]

Okay!

Who's ready to show this psycho

that we are not afraid?!

- We are!

- Right!

Let's march down Main Street

and give Sheriff Welch

a piece of our mind!

- Yeah!

- Remember Al!

[Chanting]

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

Remember Al! Remember Al!

[Indistinct conversations]

Ugh. I feel like we've been

walking for f***ing hours.

My calves are killing me, and

we're only a third of the way.

Ugh. Damn it!

Who are you texting?

No one. Come on, let's go

to the front for a better shot.

Excuse me. Pardon me.

[Thunder crashes]

And with a show of force

and goodwill like this,

- one thing is certain.

- Our Midwestern town

won't take any more sh*t

from this serial killer.

[Crowd cheers]

Like and favorite!

[Crowd cheers]

[Dramatic music plays]

[Crowd screaming]

[Thunder crashes]

Did you...

I was with you the whole time.

Excuse me!

Sadie, McKayla.

Quick sound bite

from the Tragedy Girls?

Oh, I can't even deal

with this right now.

Uh, we are shocked and saddened

that another death

has transpired

due to the apathy

of our law enforcement.

- Good one.

- Is that a direct quote?

Hey, wait your turn!

Are you afraid that the killer

will target you next

because of your infamous blog?

Um, we will not rest until

we stop this menace of society!

[Indistinct shouting]

[Cellphone ringing]

Please continue to follow

Tragedy Girls on Twitter.

Excuse me. Thank you.

[Indistinct shouting]

[Cellphone ringing]

- Yeah?

- Hey, hon.

A lot of people

have been calling the house...

- CNN, ABC, Barbara Walters.

- Sweetie,

there's someone who calls

who just breathes

into the phone.

Mom, Dad,

just hang up the phone.

Don't talk to anyone.

And lock the doors.

What if it's him?

There's a good chance.

So, you believe

you're being followed?

I've been getting these weird

texts, like when I'm at school.

Someone's been

invading my privacy.

- I know it.

- And I'm pretty sure

- I've seen this guy before.

- He could be the killer.

- He was old.

- Not like you old,

like Father Time old,

but, like, old.

- Kind of out of shape, um...

- 6'6".

- And really old.

- Something like this? [Sighs]

[Laughs]

This looks like

Stewie from "Family Guy."

That's terrible, but, yeah.

Yeah, his eyes were

a little bit more beady.

- You should hire somebody.

- Do you think you could, like,

dispatch someone to,

like, my house?

Or escort me to school,

just in case?

Even with all the extra help,

I can't spare a single deputy.

- What?

- The f***? You're the police.

I could be killed!

Maybe stop checking

in your location online,

and he won't find you.

I'd rather die.

[School bell rings]

[Cellphones ringing]

Phones off!

But it's a matter

of life and death.

What if we have to call 911?

I said, phones off!

[Cellphones ringing]

[Ringing stops]

You know, maybe we should

continue with a conversation

about the dark side

of social media.

Anyone?

Narcissism?

What about shallowness?

Sociopathy?

- I object!

- Yeah, you're singling us out.

People have died!

People who can't be replaced.

I have just about had it

with the both of you,

feeding off misery

like parasites.

You should both be ashamed.

Parasitic.

[Dramatic music plays]

[Door opens]

- I can't do this anymore.

- You're just going to quit?

You can't just

abandon our videos.

We gave you all the footage.

- You can have it back.

- I thought we made a good team.

We do.

I... My dad needs me

more than you guys right now.

- F*** your dad.

- M-Kay!

Don't talk about

my dad like that.

No. If Sheriff Welch

knew his dick from his donuts,

he would've solved this already.

He's useless.

Just like when your mother

was murdered.

- F*** you!

- F*** you!

That's enough!

Come on, Sadie.

We don't need him.

We could Snapchat a used tampon

and it would be huge.

- Jordan needs to die.

- He's harmless.

He's making you soft.

I am not soft.

I am fierce.

And you shouldn't have

brought up his mom.

Are you still feeling guilty

about that sh*t?

- [Knock on door]

- Hey, girls.

If you hear anything weird,

don't hesitate.

No psychos are gonna get

in here on my watch.

- Yes, Dad.

- Yes, Mr. Cunningham.

All right,

I'm gonna hit the hay. Night.

Jordan knows more

than he's letting on.

He doesn't know anything.

Dude, the way

he was looking at me.

He's always hanging around,

watching.

It's only a matter of time

before he spills to his dad.

You're over-reacting.

F***.

- What?

- My phone.

My f***ing phone.

- Which one?

- The important one.

I swear it was right...

He took it.

[Laughs] Jordan?

You're being paranoid.

Earlier, with the drive.

I mean, right in front

of my f***ing face.

This is like a total breach!

He dies tonight!

Lowell could be outside,

figuring out

how to disembowel us

or whatever.

- It's not even worth the risk.

- If we go to jail,

everything

that we've worked for is f***ed.

Look, don't worry. okay?

I'll sneak into his house

after curfew,

and I'll slit his throat.

It'll be quick...

like it never even happened.

No, he's my friend.

I'll do it.

[Sighs]

Are you, uh, going back

to the station again?

No, figure

I'll stay in tonight.

We got some extra guys

from Chamberlain on shift.

They've got it under control.

We'll have some fun.

[Chuckles]

[Snoring]

[Indistinct conversation

on television]

[Continues snoring]

[Beep]

[Beep]

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

- [Chuckles]

What the hell

are you doing here?

I wanted to see you,

but I didn't think

your dad would be here.

He will freak out

if he catches you.

Is that an Elvis Presley frog?

Goddamn right, it's

an Elvis Presley frog.

"You ain't nothing

but a hound frog."

- That's it.

- [Laughs]

Are we gonna talk,

or did you just come over

- to make fun of me?

- Sorry.

It's just exactly

how I pictured it.

And how did you

avoid the deputies?

I didn't, really.

They're just bad at their jobs.
