"Jason and Greg were little rich kids and rented this under a false name," Gale said as they walked down a dark alley. "How did you find this place?" Kirby asked Gale in surprise. "It's called investigative journalism. How did you not find this?'' Gale asked mockingly.
Lu rolled her eyes. She lived for their beef.
"There was nothing about this place in their financial documents. I don't get it," Kirby said irritated. "Don't worry, I'm good at what I do. It will come," Gale teased. Kirby rolled her eyes as Gale opened the door.
"What is this place? Why all the security?'' Kirby asked confused as Gale turned on the lights. "It's a movie theater," Tara said. "It's not really a movie theater. It's a honor place," Gale sighed
The curtain on the stage went up and the costumes of all the ghostfaces were on display. The clothing and a whole collection of the recent years were in the hall.
"They've got the whole goddamn franchise," Mindy said, staring her eyes out. "You've all been through so much," Bailey said, looking at Kirby. "How do they all get this stuff? Isn't this evidence?" Tara asked. "Well, evidence will be gone in no time," Gale sighed.
"Why am I here anyway? I have an alibi," Ethan said with a nervous laugh. "So I can keep an eye on you," Chad said. "The killer must have figured out this place before he killed Jason and Greg," Gale said.
Lu walked onto the stage. She walked over to the robe in the display case. Her father's. Billy Loomis said on the sign.
"Damn how cool this place is," Billy said as he looked at Lu. "Not again," groaned Lu. "Isn't it nice to go on a killing spree together for the first time, Lu?" Billy asked his daughter.
"Billy and Lu, Team Loomis. We'll chop those fuckers into pieces."
Lu swallowed the lump in het throat away and put her hand on the glass. Why did it feel good that her father said that?
"What are you doing?" Sam asked. "I don't know. I got lost in my thoughts, I guess," Lu lied. "So someone killed those morons and took this place over?" Chad asked, looking at Amber Freeman's costume.
"Someone who thinks Sam was the killer in Woodsboro," Gale said. "In a movie, this would be the killer's hideout," Mindy said. "But this is different," Kirby muttered.
Mindy sat on the stage steps as she looked at the TV that had killed Stu Macher.
"The TV that killed Stu Macher," Kirby said as she sat down next to Mindy. "If you believe he's dead," Mindy said with a sigh.
"Have you told her yet?" Billy asked Lu. Lu looked at Sam and shook her head. "How am I supposed to do that? She might not believe me," sighed Lu.
"Just tell her," scoffed Billy. "I'll tell her when it's time," Lu whispered.
Lu walked off the stage and past her mother's things.
The collector was certainly a big fan of her mother. He had a school photo of Heather from every year, her cheerleader photos, the gun that had killed her and the diary where she kept everything.
"How did Heather die, anyway? I mean she hadn't committed suicide, right?" asked Lu as she looked at Gale. "After she killed Sidney the three fled into the woods. The police found DNA of the three on the bodies a few years later," told Gale. "I had suffered amnesia because Heather hit me in the back of the head with a bat, but slowly the memories came back."
"When the police arrived at their cabin, all three were dead. That's all I know."
Lu nodded and stared at her mother's Ghostface costume. The boots were higher than others', making her look taller.
"She was the most brutal of them all," Mindy spoke up. "Killed her ex, skull open and pieces of brain everywhere. And without emotion killed her ex-best friend with an axe."
"That's the axe," Kirby sighed as she looked at a large bloody axe. "Thank God they died in 2004, otherwise they might still be killing."

"You should have stayed with the rest," sighed Sam as she looked at Lu and Tara. Lu raised an eyebrow as she looked at Sam.
"Forget it," said Tara as she looked first at Sam and then at Lu. "It makes no sense that all three of us are in danger now," hissed Sam as they walked through the park. "No, we are protecting each other," said Tara as she shook her head.
Sam's phone rang. It was 'Richie' again. Sam answered angrily.
"You're going to die, you know that?" asked Sam as she answered. "No, you're going to die Sam. You'll choke on your own blood as you watch me stab Tara to death," said the killer teasingly. "Unless we find you first," said Sam as she looked around her. "For a mastermind you are not very bright," said the killer teasingly.
"Wait for me to call and for the police to arrest me? I'm not around, I'm one step ahead of you. I'll see you soon, Sam," ghostface said. Ghostface hung up.
"Did it work?" Sam asked Kirby through her earpiece. "Yes, I'm getting the location now. It says Upper West Side. He's on the other side of town," Kirby said. "On West 96th?" Tara asked. "How did you know?" Kirby asked. "Gale," Sam said as she swallowed the lump in her throat.
Lu, Tara and Sam ran as fast as they could to a car. ''Hey, where are you guys going?" asked Bailey. "Away," said Lu as she got behind the wheel. "Do you even have your driver's license?" Sam asked Lu. "Just three months," said Lu with a grin. Lu raced away across the streets of New York, toward Gale her apartment.
The three ran up the stairs as fast as they could. Sam kicked in Gale's door. Gale lay wounded on the floor.
Ghostface was still standing in the room. Lu picked up the gun and fired a few shots at Ghostface. She had hit him twice.
"I'm sorry, Gale. I should have known he would go to you," Sam said, keeping pressure on the wound. "He didn't catch me. Tell Sidney he never got me," Gale whispered.
Her eyes closed. Tears rolled down Sam's cheeks. Ambulance crews tried to save Gale. There was still a faint heartbeat.
Thank God.

"I got here as fast as I could," Danny said as he ran inside. "Is that so?" Tara asked, raising an eyebrow. "I'm scared, guys," Mindy wailed. "I don't want to get hurt again."
"Me neither," Chad muttered. "I don't want you to get hurt again," Mindy muttered. "I know," Chad said as he leaned against his sister. "What should we do now?" Chad asked. "Maybe he should win," Sam muttered. Lu raised confused an eyebrow.
"He wants to punish me. Me. Maybe I should just let him. I'll give myself up. If it's necessary to keep you safe, it's worth it," Sam sobbed. "No, we don't Sam. You protect me every day, you protect us every day. We'd all be dead without you," Lu said as she got up.
"Now we're going to protect you," Tara muttered. "No," Sam sobbed. "Yes. We are a team," whispered Tara. "Actually, we're family," Mindy said as she put her arm around Sam. "Exactly, core four!" Chad yelled. "Core what?" Danny asked. "It's a us thing," Chad said, keeping Danny out of it.
Lu chuckled. She loved Chad and his silly things.
"He keeps coming after us," Sam sighed. "Isn't there a place we can hide?" Ethan asked. "He'll find us anyway," Chad answered. "Great," Ethan muttered sarcastically. "That's actually a good idea," Tara said, looking at Sam.
"How is that a good idea?" asked Ethan. Lu poked him in the side and gave him a warning look.
Bailey and Tara were on the phone and they agreed about the movie theater that there were a lot of cameras there and that it was a perfect place.
"I'm sending Kirby and I'll be there as soon as I can. And don't forget to take public transport, the more people the less likely he will catch you," Bailey said. "Understood," Tara said as she hung up.
"Let's catch that motherfucker," hissed Sam angrily.
