A scene from Scream VI 2023
[At Gale's apartment, the phone rings]

Gale's boyfriend: That'll be our food. [Answers the phone] Hello? [To Gale] Not the food, it's for you.

Gale Weathers

Who is it?
Gale's boyfriend: May I ask who's calling, please? [To Gale] He says it's the killer.

Gale Weathers
[Gale's eyes widen, and she quickly takes the phone from her boyfriend]

Hello?

Hello, Gale. Strange that you and I have never spoken on the phone. This is long overdue.

Gale Weathers

I agree. [To her boyfriend] Call the police.

[Her boyfriend leaves]

I figured, after all these years, you’d want an interview.

Gale Weathers

You figured right. So, what's your motive this time? You angry at the movies or are you just trying to stay relevant?

I could ask you the same. Don’t you know? The legacy characters are disposable now. No one cares about last century’s heroes.

Gale Weathers

Why bother with me at all?

Call it nostalgia. Or maybe you deserve to be punished for all that money you made off the misery of others. Maybe it’s time someone made a buck reporting your death.

Gale Weathers

You know you're, like, the tenth guy to try this, right? And spoiler alert, it never works out for the dipshit in a mask.

[Unknown to Gale, Ghostface grabs her boyfriend and pulls him away]

Oh, but they certainly leave a mark before they go, don’t they? Richie and Amber managed to butcher Dewey, carved him up like a Christmas goose. How does it feel to lose the only man who ever loved you?

Gale Weathers
[struggling to stay cool upon hearing Ghostface's words]

**** you!

How does it feel to know that you weren’t there for him at the end? Not there to give him comfort, ‘cause he died screaming in his own guts.

Gale Weathers
[tearful]

You're the one who's gonna die screaming.

Maybe, but you won’t be around to see it. You couldn’t stop what happened to Dewey, just like you’re not gonna be able to stop this.

Gale Weathers
[He reveals himself by throwing Gale's boyfriend's body through a shelf and destroying it. Ghostface chases Gale through the apartment, with Gale narrowly avoiding or fighting back against Ghostface's attacks, before locking herself in a room, grabbing a gun, and shooting at the locked door that Ghostface is struggling to open]

How's that for nostalgia, ****er?!

[Gale's phone rings, and she answers it]

You missed.

Gale Weathers

Sure I did.

[speaking quickly]

You win. I’m in the elevator, heading for the ground floor.

Gale Weathers

Sure you are. [Fires two shots]

[sounding wounded]

Maybe...you did hit me. Maybe I’m wounded. [Speaks normally] Or maybe I’m wearing a bulletproof vest.

Gale Weathers

That's why I'm gonna shoot you in the **** head!

[She opens the door and walks out of the room, but sees no sign of Ghostface]

You would’ve made a good killer, Gale. Sidney never would've made sense, and Dewey was the fan favorite. But you cracking under the pressure and turning into Ghostface would’ve been a great twist.

Gale Weathers

Keep talking, asshole.

[chuckles]

Sure. What do you want to talk about? You never got to be the leading lady, did you? It was always all about poor, sweet Sidney sucking up all the oxygen. Where did that leave you to be?

Gale Weathers

The brains and the sex appeal?

Sorry about your boyfriend. All those muscles didn’t help much.

Gale Weathers

They sure didn't. [Ghostface resumes chuckling] Can you hold, please?

[stops chuckling]

Huh?
[Gale presses the hold button, causing Ghostface's own phone to make a sound, exposing his hiding place]
