He worked with Tara?
CHAD
(rolls up his sleeves) I think it's time to introduce him to Hobbs and Shaw...
LIV
Maybe not the best idea to incite violence in front of the Sheriff? Looks like he's leaving anyway.
With a lascivious air kiss, Vince gets into his truck.
LIV (CONT'D)
(squeezes Chad's bicep) Thanks anyway, boys.
Chad winces. Mindy eyes him.
MINDY
Hm. Tara said she fought back, hard. You've got bruises.
CHAD
From practice. And can I point out that suspecting your twin brother of attacking our mutual friend is like seventeen kinds of fucked up?
Amber looks up from her phone --
AMBER
Tara's awake, she just texted. I'm going to the hospital. You coming?
LIV
Can't, but I'll meet you later.
Chad kisses Liv goodbye and heads to his car. As she goes, Liv notices Vince, in the parking lot, still eyeing her...
I/E. RICHIE'S PRIUS/CALIFORNIA INTERSTATE - DAY
Richie drives his used Prius towards Woodsboro. Sam, next to him, crawling out of her skin.
RICHIE
So. Woodsboro. Why does that sound so familiar?
SAM
The Stab movies. You know,
Ghostface? Based on actual events? (off his confused look) You've never seen Stab? Not even the one came out last year?
RICHIE
I've never seen Gone with the Wind either, I don't consider it like a huge hole in my cinematic education-
SAM
Most of the Stab movies are based on things that really happened in my hometown.
Richie looks at her, not liking where this is going.
RICHIE
Define "things."
SAM
Things like a guy named Billy Loomis and his friend carved up a bunch of high school kids while wearing this Halloween ghost mask.
RICHIE
You mean like in Halloween?
SAM
Not like in Halloween.
RICHIE
It sounds a lot like Halloween-
SAM
And every decade or so, some other idiot gets the bright idea to put on the mask, kill their friends, and get famous too. Last time was in 2011.
Richie stares at her.
RICHIE
So you grew up in a place that's not only famous for serial killers, but where copycats spring up every few years? And we're driving there voluntarily?
SAM
I gotta make sure Tara's okay.
RICHIE
And I gotta make sure we don't get sliced up by some lunatic who saw a Jason Vorhees movie and thought, "You know, this guy's got some solid ideas!"
