"Hello! And welcome back to The Great Lurk Challenge!" Sashly shouts to the camera. "Last week was a mess...first and foremost, the Holly family does not blame our studio, and thus we have been given the green light to continue with the show! Secondly the recap! Last week our contestants were challenged to a scavenger hunt! Each of them had to find a specific item, and the last one to return with their item was suppose to go home, that being Ghoulrus, but there was a tragedy and someone lost their life. Now our contract stated only one contestant could leave per episode. So with Killer Prism being disqualified for taking the life of an innocent, he got booted and Ghoulrus got to stay! Now with only nineteen contestants left, let's see who will be going home this week! I hope you all enjoy the great Lurk Challenge!" Sashly smiles, but it seems a little forced as she still feels awful from the events of last week.
We open to Liberty and Mindy sitting at the kitchen table. Liberty is eating a salad and Mindy has a hamburger with hot sauce. "This week has been the best sleep I've gotten since this show started!" Mindy exclaims.
"Yeah, it is a bit calmer knowing that we're not sleeping in the same house as a serial killer. I feel so bad for that girl and her family!" Liberty adds in, as she bites into a tomato.
Heather and Ghoulrus enter the room. "So Ghoulrus...what do you remember about your life...from when you were alive? Do you remember what dimension you came from? How about your species? Or your gender?" Heather wonders, Cyrus quickly runs into the room after hearing these questions.
"Oh please say you remember something about your previous life! It would help me with research on souls in the underground! Still fascinated that all the dimensions share one underground!" Cyrus excitingly shares bouncing up and down in hopes Ghoulrus knows all the answers.
Ghoulrus giggles, "I'm sorry. I don't remember my old life at all. Ghoulrus isn't even my real name, it was given to me by...someone. But that's all I remember. And all I can remember for some reason," they explain. Heather looks down a bit defeated. She had hoped to try and help Ghoulrus get their memories back.
"Hey if I win. I'll help you get your memories back! Does that sound cool?" Heather bounces back from her sadness.
"You'd help me? Why? We don't know each other that well?" Ghoulrus begins to forget Heather again.
"Yes we do. I'm Heather, we're competing together in the Great Lurk Challenge along with nineteen other contestants. You and I are friends Ghoulrus," she pats her chest while trying her best to remind Ghoulrus of who she is.
Ghoulrus smiles as her memory stops fading, "Thanks Heather. That helped me keep my memories....for now at least..." she says the last bit with a sorrowful tone.
"Good Friday, Contestants! Please meet me at the warehouse for today's challenge!" Sashly sends a telepathic message into everyone's head.
***
Everyone gathers inside the warehouse, where Sashly is standing, and behind her is a bunch of auto parts. "Good morning everyone! I hope you all had a good week, are you ready to see who is going home tonight?" She asks, the cheerful tone is slightly there but something seems off about it.
