How'd you get past what happened to you?
Kirby Reed I almost died after I was stabbed. Technically I did die for like 4 minutes. When I recovered, I got mad. I didn't want to spend the rest of my life being afraid of monsters. I wanted the monsters to be afraid of me.
I like that.
Kirby [At the theater, Sam and Tara are struggling to escape from two Ghostface killers, when Kirby Reed and Detective Wayne Bailey arrive with guns drawn]
It's okay!
Stay the **** back!
We know it's you, Kirby!
Kirby But one of them knocked me out!
Detective Wayne Bailey
Kirby, stop! Get away from those girls!
Kirby What are you doing here?
Detective Wayne Bailey
You killed Quinn? YOU KILLED MY DAUGHTER?!
Kirby JESUS CHRIST! [to Sam] Whatever he is saying, don't trust him! He's probably the killer!
Detective Wayne Bailey
[One Ghostface charges towards Wayne, but as Kirby attempts to warn Wayne, he suddenly shoots Kirby, revealing himself to be the primary Ghostface] [to the Ghostface next to him]
Great job. [Another Ghostface walks in and stands next to Wayne, showing that there are three killers behind the murders] Both of you.
You?
Detective Wayne Bailey
Yeah, of course, me. Frankly, I expected more from the two of you after what you did to us.
What do you mean "us"?
Detective Wayne Bailey
[The Ghostface on the left takes off his mask, revealing himself to be Ethan. Wayne chuckles]
Ta-da.
Ethan
Mindy was right. It was easy to juke the roommate lottery. I mean, all I had to do to meet you was room with a conceited, condescending alpha literally named Chad. ****, it felt good to kill him! [Shows his mask] This was your grandmother's, Sam. Nancy Loomis. Really runs in your **** family, doesn't it? Speaking of family...
Detective Wayne Bailey
Wait for it.
Ethan
My name's not Ethan Landry. Isn't it, Dad?
Samantha Carpenter
Wait. If it's you two, that just leaves... [Looks at the Ghostface on the right] Mindy?
Quinn Bailey
[Ghostface takes off the mask to reveal herself as Quinn]
Hey, roomies. You didn't see that one coming, did you?
Yeah, because you died!
Quinn Bailey
I kind of didn't, though...it was a good way to get off the suspect list. Stabbed Gale Weathers, stabbed Mindy on the train, that sort of thing.
Detective Wayne Bailey
Yep, and I just made sure I was first on the scene so I could switch her body out with a fresh one. Little fake blood, a prosthetic. You'd be amazed at what a grieving father can get away with.
Quinn Bailey
[Quinn and Ethan put their Ghostface masks back on their pedestals] [shows her mask]
I got Stu Macher's mask. He was my favorite.
Detective Wayne Bailey
That's number 3. That's two. This leaves... [Reveals his own Ghostface mask] ...your father's. This is what we've been counting down to, Sam. I'm gonna need you to put it on.
Samantha Carpenter
[annoyed and angered]
**** you!
Ethan
[She throws the mask away, only for Ethan to slice her in the arm. Wayne laughs]
OOOHHH!
You stay the **** away from her!
Samantha Carpenter
What is this? You did this as a family?
Quinn Bailey
Oh, yeah, bitch. You should know better than anyone.
Ethan
They're still not getting it.
Samantha Carpenter
Look, I don't know what you believe, but I didn't commit those murders in Woodsboro! It wasn't me!
Detective Wayne Bailey
Oh, we know that. Of course you didn't. What do you think? This is based on some bullshit conspiracy theory? Come on. Who do you think started the rumors about you in the first place?
Quinn Bailey
[Quinn raises her hand, answering Wayne's question. Wayne snickers]
Do you know how easy it was to turn Sam from the hero of Woodsboro into the villain? How easy it is to convince the world to believe the worst in people rather than the best?
Ethan
Because it's not enough to just kill someone these days. You have to assassinate their character first. So when Dad here "discovers" your horribly mutilated bodies posed with Sam wearing her father's mask, he'll say some poor, dumb bastard read on the Internet that you're the real Ghostface and took matters into their own deluded hands.
Detective Wayne Bailey
Exactly. That's why it's a perfect alibi. And all the best lies are based on the truth. And you're a killer, just like your father.
Samantha Carpenter
No, I'm not!
Quinn Bailey
Yes, you are, you mother****er! You killed our brother!
Samantha Carpenter
What are you talking about?
You said your brother died in a car accident.
Ethan
No, no, no, you sweet, dumb thing. He died in Woodsboro, at the hands of your bitch sister.
Samantha Carpenter
[Sam looks at all the Bailey family members and becomes stunned, realizing who they're talking about]
You're Richie's family.
Detective Wayne Bailey
[slowly gets angry as he nods]
Yeah.
Ethan
[Ethan attacks Sam again, as she and Tara attempt to get away, before the family corners them again]
Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding! Now she's finally starting to get it!
Detective Wayne Bailey
[angry]
Now, it wasn't until I saw that photograph of what you've done to him that I knew, that I knew you had to **** die! You had to be punished, along with anyone else who stands in our way!
Quinn Bailey
[Samantha glares angrily at Quinn]
There she is. There's the **** killer.
Quinn Bailey
[angry]
Shut your whore-**** MOUTH! [Pushes Tara and Sam towards Wayne]
Detective Wayne Bailey
Have I been a perfect dad? No. Have I maybe overindulged Richie's love of these little movies? Maybe. For me, they're just a little dark. But...Richie really loved them. Loved them. He even made a few of his own. Did you know? [Stares mournfully at footage of Richie playing on a damaged theater screen] There's a very special bond between a father and his first son, which is why I helped him build this collection.
Samantha Carpenter
This was all his?
Detective Wayne Bailey
Yes. He's a very passionate collector. And he inspired others. We had to kill those two wannabe film students because, well, we had to kill you first, Sam. I put the theater in their name, then good old Detective Bailey would've just stumbled on it, but I didn't have to, because, by golly, that Gale Weathers is one hell of a journalist. I built a tribute to my son, which is why this is where you have to die, Sam, surrounded by all the things he loved the most.
Samantha Carpenter
What happens next? What? After you're done with us, what? You just disappear?
Detective Wayne Bailey
No. We gotta hurry over to the hospital and make sure Mindy and Gale don't pull through. [Angrily pulls out his gun] Because everybody dies, Sam! Everyone who had anything to do with the death of my son suffers and dies!
Ethan
YEAH!
Quinn Bailey
**** yeah, they do!
Detective Wayne Bailey
Now put on the mask!
Samantha Carpenter
[suddenly gets an idea]
He was...so pathetic.
Detective Wayne Bailey
[realizing who Sam is talking about and gets offended]
That's not true.
Samantha Carpenter
Yeah, your son. He was a manbaby who made his girlfriend do all the killing.
Detective Wayne Bailey
[in denial]
He was a strong, virile young man!
Samantha Carpenter
He was a limp-dick little **** who cried before I slit his throat.
Detective Wayne Bailey
[shocked and angered]
What?!
Quinn Bailey
[enraged]
SHUT THE **** UP!!
Ethan
[She viciously attempts to attack, only for Tara to attack first by bashing Quinn on the head with a brick she was holding, then Kirby regains consciousness and shoots Wayne as he tries to dodge, allowing Sam and Tara to get away. Ethan ambushes Kirby]
Recognize this?
Kirby **** YOU!
Samantha Carpenter
[Ethan stabs Kirby much like what Charlie did to her last time, but is stopped by Sam, who pushes him away]
Sorry, but I kinda need this. [Plunges the knife off of Kirby's stomach]
Kirby **** 'em up!
Ethan
What are you gonna do about it, bitch?
[To Ethan's surprise, Sam stabs him multiple times]
