Trina: Hang on. I gotta get some more beer.

(Trina goes into the garage where Piper has a mini fridge filled with alcoholic beverages for parties. As she makes her way the refrigerator, she gets a call. She answers her phone.)

Trina: Hello.

Unknown Caller: What's your favorite scary movie?

Trina: Ummmm....who's this?

Unknown Caller: Just answer the question.

Trina: Who is this?

Unknown Caller: What's your favorite scary movie?

Trina: I don't know. The Purge?

Unknown Caller: You dumb bitch. That's what you picked?!?! The Purge?!?! What the fuck?!?! See. That's what's wrong with your generation. It's probably all the molly you're popping. You know what? Let's try this again. I'll hang up and call again.

Trina: Ok.

(The unknown caller hangs up. Soon after, the phone rings again.)

Trina: Hello.

Unknown Caller: I'm back.

Trina: How are you?

Unknown Caller: I'm great. I'm a little under the weather.

Trina: Aw. Sorry.

Unknown Caller: That's ok. And you?

Trina: I'm doing ok.

Unknown Caller: Good. So you thought long and hard about your answer?

Trina: You can say that.

Unknown Caller: Ok. Oh and I'm sorry for blowing up like I did. I'm really stressed. That's all.

Trina: That's ok.

Unknown Caller: Now that we've got that out of the way, let's try it again.

Trina: Ok. I'm ready.

Unknown Caller: So...what's your favorite scary movie?

Trina: I would say The Exorcist.

Unknown Caller: Good choice. Really good choice. You've made me reconsider my outlook on your generation. Let me guess. You like the part where she throws up.

Trina: Oh hell yeah. That shit was awesome. Like when I had that stomach virus in February.

Unknown Caller: School lunch is a bitch, huh?

Trina: That it is.

Unknown Caller: I gotta go. I've got my eye on this girl.

Trina: Ooh. Have fun.

Unknown Caller: Oh, trust me. I will.

Trina: Ok. Bye.

Unknown Caller: See you later.

Trina: Wait. I'm sorry. What?

(The unknown caller hangs up. Trina looks perplexed but brushes it off. She goes into the refrigerator and grabs some beers. As she closes the door of the mini fridge, someone is standing behind it. She jumps up.)

Trina: Who the fuck is that?

(Trina holds her cellphone to the person's face. It's the Murder Murderer. She screams and the Murder Murderer raises his knife. He stabs her in the chest multiple times. She falls on the ground and takes her last breaths. The Murder Murderer stands over her. She reaches for the mask and pulls it off.)

Trina: You've got to be...fucking kidding me.

(The Murder Murderer stabs her and put the mask back on. She subsequently dies.)
