Laurie Strode Molly please, do you have any thoughts on Victor and Elizabeth?
MC Molly Cartwell
Well, um, well I think that Victor should have confronted the monster sooner. He's completely responsible for Elizabeth's death because he was so paralyzed by fear that he never did anything. It took death for the guy to get a clue.
Laurie Strode And why do you think he was finally able to confront his monster?
MC Molly Cartwell
I think that Victor had reached a point in his life where he had nothing left to lose. I mean, the monster saw to that by killing off everybody that he loved. Victor finally had to face it. It was about redemption... it was his fate.
[His mother won't let him go away on an overnight school camping trip]
Dad would let me go.
Laurie Strode Well, Dad is an abusive, chain-smoking methadone addict.
Who would attract someone like that?
Laurie Strode Ouch.
And to think he left you.
Laurie Strode John! I know you get your smart mouth from my side of the family. So I'll cut you a break. But point check, you're going too far!
No, I'm going to Yosemite.
Laurie Strode No, you're not!
Look, Mom, help me out here. I need a little more open air, I've earned it. Look, I know that today is the day...
Laurie Strode Oh, really? What day is that, John?
Laurie Strode [Creeped out]
Oh, I hadn't noticed.
Look, Mom, we're through will all that. We really are.
Laurie Strode I'm not who you think I am.
WB Will Brennan
Okay. Who are you?
Laurie Strode My name's not Kerri Tate.
WB Will Brennan
Ooh. What is it?
Laurie Strode Laurie Strode.
Laurie Strode Strode. I changed my name when I went into hiding.
WB Will Brennan
Oh, I like that. That's like...like...like the Witness Protection Program. What did you, like, rat out the mob, or something?
Laurie Strode My brother killed my sister...when she was seventeen.
WB Will Brennan
Well, that's...sickly. How'd he do that?
Laurie Strode With a really big sharp kitchen knife.
WB Will Brennan
That's terrible. Take off your clothes.
Laurie Strode You said you'd listen.
Laurie Strode They locked him up for a long time, but he got out and...he came after me. But I got away. But he killed a lot of my friends. It happened– [in unison with Will Brennan] –on Halloween.
Laurie Strode You've heard the whole story.
WB Will Brennan
Who hasn't? Michael Myers. It's like twenty years ago, right?
Laurie Strode 1978.
WB Will Brennan
And the girl that... What happened to the sister? She died, right?
Laurie Strode No. She faked her death...and, now, she's the head mistress of a very posh, secluded private school in Northern California.
Laurie Strode Hoping and praying every year...that her brother won't find her.
WB Will Brennan
You're telling me the truth?!
Laurie Strode Now, do you want a drink?
Laurie Strode [after catching John and Charlie out of school]
What the **** do you think you're doing?
Mom, I'm real uncomfortable with you saying that word.
Laurie Strode Then don't put me in the position, John! Do you know what day it is? Of all the days for you to pull this shit, just what do you think you can do? Just wander around town? I don't ask you for very much, just give me one day!
Mom, I've given 17 years!
Laurie Strode And I need you to be responsible! Do you know what that means?
Laurie Strode Responsible!
Don't talk to me about responsibility, Mom!
Laurie Strode I just need this one thing!
Mom, I am not responsible for you. That's it; I've had enough. I can't take it anymore, Mom. He's dead. Michael Myers is dead!
Laurie Strode What do you want me to say?
That it's over, that we should try to make some attempt at a happy existence, Mom, 'cause all the shit that's going on inside of your head is leaking out on me, and I can't take it anymore. You told me, yourself, you watched him burn.
Laurie Strode I didn't exactly stay to see his ashes, John.
Mom, 20 years. 20 years. Don't you think he would've shown up by now? What's he waiting for, huh?
[Laurie doesn't respond]
Mom, I can't live like this [Starts to walk away]
Laurie Strode What...What does that mean, John?
If you wanna stay handcuffed to your dead brother, that's fine, but you're not dragging me along, not anymore!
