In the eerie odd small town of Arrington, nothing is ever normal.
Violet Benton and The Benton Gang are 20-something young adults that lives in Arrington -- an Odd town with mysterious twisted complimented darkness and a reputation for being an odd...
Violet (VO) Cherry's house party was a disaster and ended shortly due to another snuff video that appeared out of nowhere . . . Two young adults, one male masked impersonator as Jonny and another woman masked impersonator as Monica, kissing each other while half naked in front of a fireplace and then, he hits her with a mallet with blood stains. Everyone was shocked about it. Even Jonny and myself. But we knew who was behind it; Eleanor Reese continues her reign of terror.

THE ROSEBUD / HARPER AND BENTON APARTMENT
The next day, I'm sitting at the kitchen countertop, eating a bowl of cereal. Jonny slowly walks inside. He and I exchange looks at each other as he makes himself a bowl of Cinnamon toast crunch cereal.

Violet (VO) Jonny and I haven't spoken to each other since the snuff video was about him and Monica. We both know that it was two impersonators, but somehow, it bothered us a little. I don't know why, but it does.
"Not to mention the elephant in the room . . ." Jonny trailed off, sitting at the kitchen countertop with his bowl of Cheerios cereal. " . . . Do you want to talk about it?"
"Not really." I replied.
"On a scale of one to ten, how ticked off are you?" Jonny asked.
"An eight." I told him. "But I'm ticked off at Eleanor. She's bringing up these old wounds to torture us. To mess with us."
"I'm angry at Eleanor too. But we can't retaliate against her. I wish we could, but we can't." Jonny said.
I finish eating my cereal and gets up, walking over to the sink. I wash and rinse my bowl and puts it in the dishwasher.
"I gotta go." I said.
"Vinny? Are you gonna be okay?" Jonny asked me.
I look at him as I gently takes my crossbody purse. "Yeah, I'll be fine." I reassured him with a small smile.
"Okay." Jonny said. "Love you."
"Love you too, J." I said.
I pecks a kiss on his right cheek and walks away.
Violet (VO) Even though, I reassured him that I was gonna be okay, Jonny knew me too well to know that I wasn't.

JEN'S DINER
Later that day, I slowly walks inside the burnt diner and looks around at the ash booths and diner counter that was damaged by the explosion.
Jen, Cassidy and I exchange worried looks at each other.
"At least, not everything was damaged." I said, trying to ease the situation.
Jen and Cassidy small smiles to themselves, knowing what I was trying to do.
"The diner is almost repaired thanks to your father and his construction team." said Jen. "And I'm also thinking about adding more to my diner name.
