HEATHER:
How romantic.

What? With the cobwebs?

The rat feces.

Oh my god, heather.

It's supposed to be scary.

Stop being such a freaking

princess all the time.

HANNAH:
I mean, Blaine,

maybe she's right.

Maybe this isn't

such a good idea.

I mean, you don't know

how crazy my mom gets,

Especially after my dad.

All right, look.

I've got it all figured out.

We're just going to tell

her we had car trouble,

And I'll have you

home by midnight.

She'll never know

the difference.

It's going to be fine,

okay? Just chill.

Okay.

Lovely.

Um-Hmm.

Hey there, girl. All right.

DISPATCHER SAXON:

Jones, Saxon on dispatch.

Do you copy?

Sheriff Jones here.

Uh, copy that.

Sheriff, I just got a call from

Hughes rehab center

in honeybrook.

Appears one of their

residents, Ben Youngblood,

Says he's from hogeye,

went missing last night.

Yeah, uh, that's

rick Youngblood's eldest,

Uh, yeah, I know him.

He was in Linda's class.

Did they notify rick his boy left yet?

Maybe he's headed back home.

Well, the facility hasn't

been able to reach him,

And I tried the landline

listed, but got nothing.

I have an idea

where I can find him.

Did they say anything else?

DISPATCHER SAXON:

The psychiatrist said that

Ben never informed anyone

about his departure,

And he also voiced concerns

about Ben possibly trying

To head this way on foot.

Concerns? Why concerns?

Said Ben's typically

catatonic state

Had recently developed into

sudden outbursts of anger,

And that the nurses were even

in discussions with his father

About moving Ben to

a more secure facility.

A more secure facility?

He says they were

starting to worry.

Ben had become

potentially harmful,

Not only to himself,

but to others, too.

All right. Well, we'll find him,

and uh, we'll talk to him.

There's one more thing.

I'm not sure they're related,

but I got a phone call

From Ms. Sanchez earlier.

She said her daughter never

returned home last night.

Apparently,

she missed school today

And then cheering

at the game tonight, too.

Wouldn't that be the Diane that

your daughter's friends with?

(MUSIC)

TINA:
Holy sh*t. Check it.

It's old myrtle

Christy's dive bar pub.

I can't believe

that dive is still open.

Supposedly, it has the best chicken

fried steak in ten counties.

Some say she's a witch,

That she kills stray cats

and casts spells on them,

And then fries them and

serves them to the customers,

And that's why

the food's so good.

Whatever, babe.

You're full of sh*t.

Grab me another beer.

Please, grab me

another beer tinker tits.

I love it when you

talk dirty to me.

Just a hopeless romantic.

Now, usually on Halloween

people like to bob for apples,

But I'd like to shake things

up a bit this year, baby.

Have you ever been

bobbing for bananas?

BUBBA:
Geez,

is mike wasted already?

Heather's going to go ape on

his ass if he's driving blitz.

I still can't believe Hannah even

let Blaine talk her into all this.

Yeah, well Blaine's going

to be real heated whenever

He realizes he brought

her all the way up to BFE

Just to have her

blue ball his ass again.

You mean they

haven't done it yet?

No.

Not at all.

Hannah doesn't drink or screw,

Which is exactly why she and

Blaine make such a terrible match.

Wait. Why doesn't she drink?

Her dad was killed on

July 4th by a drunk driver.

- You didn't know?

- Holy sh*t.

No. I had no idea.

Yeah, well, she doesn't

really like to talk about it.

Makes her crazy mother

even crazier apparently.

I mean, you guys should

see this woman's bathroom.

It's like a freaking

CVS pharmacy up in there.

Poor Hannah,

it's got to be rough.

(MUSIC)

Oh, hey, sheriff.

Evening, ladies.

Have either of y' all

seen Linda or heather?

No. I haven't seen any of

the girls, not since the game.

- Is everything okay?

- Yeah. I'm just wondering

What kind of toiling

trouble Linda's into.

Well, we haven't seen 'em.

They might be avoiding

a school dance after the way

Graves treated them

at the pep rally today.

Yeah? And how's that?

He's drowning with his

melodramatic bout of guilt is all.

Not that it would have mattered

if they would've showed up

Considering principal

graves isn't here.

He's probably at the cemetery

wailing over his daughter's grave.

Typical.

ROBIN:
Besides, you

shouldn't be intimidated

By a barf bag like Blaine, Jeff.

You should just

ask her out anyway.

And what makes you think I'm so

interested in Hannah to begin with?

Uh, because Linda told me that

you bought a homecoming corsage

For a certain someone back

when you thought Hannah

Had been dumped by

Blaine for Dana steel.

Okay. I never told Linda who

the corsage was for, so...

well, so, who's it for then?

(LAUGHS) Yeah.

That's what I thought.

Look, I say that you ought to make

your own pass play on Hannah tonight.

Yes.

It's happening.

We're making this happen.

Oh, sh*t.

Petey's truck's down

the old park 'n puss.

What?

BLAINE:
I wonder who that

old dog's banging tonight.

He's with Vickie, duh.

BLAINE:
Oh, man!

God, no wonder he kept

that new ass a secret.

You guys, we don't know for sure

peter's having sex with anyone, okay?

Well you sure as hell down

don't go down there to talk.

I know that.

(LAUGHS) God damn, heather.

Freaking dude you been in

heat for since kindergarten

Is banging your sister? (LAUGHS)

That's some Springer

sh*t right there.

- She's my stepsister.

- Don't take it personal.

Petey doesn't like

them church going chicks,

Even if you are the tightest

piece of ass in school.

Get him in about 10 or 20 when

he's ready to settle down.

I'm sure he'll hit

you up, all right?

Blaine. Would you please

stop referring to our gender

As piece and ass.

Oh, baby, come on. Calm down.

It's just bullshit

locker room talk anyway.

Blaine, shut up

and watch the road.

Oh, sh*t, and we have arrived.

B*tches, welcome to

the party of the year.

(MUSIC)

BLAINE:
What's up, baby?

Welcome to hell, sh*t heads.

Happy f***ing

Halloween, b*tches.

Going to our graves

remembering tonight. Holla.

Holy hicks town,

this place is awesome.

If you enjoy the bowels

of Lucifer's layer.

Mike, you realize you were

driving like an idiot, right?

Sorry about it.

Another rob Donaldson freak out.

Chill out, big red.

You're all red.

Hannah, you told your

mom we'd be an hour.

She's going to kill us.

It's fine, robin, really.

Well, I'm not explaining

this one to her.

Come on, babe. Let's just...

we're here, right?

Let's have some fun.

Come on.

Uh, Blaine. Can I get my duffel?

JEFF:
So do you guys

think I should like...

I don't know approach her?

What should I say?

You need to offer

to take her home

Because her mother

is going to freak out.

Blaine, did you

see my cell phone?

It was in my bag earlier.

No. I don't know.

Maybe you left it

In the girls locker

room or something.

Hey, take my truck, okay?

Take my truck. I'll stay here.

I don't... I don't have service.
