SAM Hello?

It's not Amber, it's a Voice we know.

VOICE (O.S.) Hello, Samantha.

SAM Who is this?

VOICE (O.S.)

Someone who knows your secret.

What's your favorite Stab movie, Sam? I'm guessing it's the one with Billy Loomis in it.

SAM

You're the fuck who hurt my sister-

VOICE (O.S.)

She's not the only one I'm going to hurt. I had to get you to come back here somehow, didn't I?

SAM

You want to fuck with me, asshole? I'm right here, come and get me.

VOICE (O.S.) With pleasure.

And the bathroom door bursts open to reveal GHOSTFACE! Sam screams and ducks the knife slash! The blade impales itself in the stall door!

Ghostface tries to pull it out as Sam tries to run past --

WHAM! He punches her straight in the face. She goes down hard. He rips the knife out of the stall door, advancing! Sam, scrambling backwards --

SAM

Help! Help me!

He slashes down at her, but she kicks him in the leg! He buckles as Sam rises. Sees the door beyond Ghostface.

In one quick move she LEAPS OVER HIM as he slashes at her!

Sticks the landing, barrels out the door into --

INT. HOSPITAL CORRIDOR - NIGHT

She bolts towards the Nurses's station.

SAM

Help, somebody's trying to kill me!

Rounds a corner and- WHAM! Collides with a DEPUTY who was running towards her! Stationed there to watch over Tara.

DEPUTY VINSON What's going on-?

SAM

A man in the bathroom just tried to kill me, call the cops!

DEPUTY VINSON I am the cops-

SAM

Call more cops!

The Deputy pulls his gun. Looks around the corner.

DEPUTY VINSON That bathroom?

Sam nods.

DEPUTY VINSON (CONT'D) Stay back.

He moves towards it. Sam watches him. Snatches a pair of scissors off the Nurse's station just in case. The Deputy reaches the door. Kicks it open...

Nothing. The bathroom's empty. Window at the other end open, wind blowing through the place. He lowers his gun...

SAM

You check the stalls?

He raises his gun again. Steps inside. Sam watches from the hall as he checks each stall. Kicking them open one by one. Comes upon the last one... She tenses... We tense...

He kicks it open. Empty. Ghostface is gone. Sam exhales.

SAM (CONT'D)

Now will you call the cops?
