[Kevin absorbs the doorknob, then sticks his finger into the keyhole to pick the lock.]
This is why you changed your mind about Mike going off with Gwen? So we could spy on him?
He ain't right, Ben. If you're not gonna check him out, I am.
You're doing the wrong thing, Kevin. The old Kevin thing. [Grabs Kevin's arm] Step away from the door.
You really wanna fight me over some new guy? [Frees his arm from Ben's grip] That's how you're gonna build a team? [Opens the door] And they said I didn't learn anything in the Null Void.
TTrina
[arriving at the house] Is Mike home? [Ben and Kevin turn to see her walking up to them] He hasn't called me back since you and that new girl showed up.
[Ben and Kevin exchange looks, then turn to Trina.]
Uh, Trina, right? Yeah, Morningstar ain't here right now.
[Trina tilts her head to look at the open door. Ben and Kevin exchange looks, then turn to Trina.]
We're just picking up some stuff for him.
TTrina
[Comes up the stairs] Then you know where he is. Can you take me?
TTrina
I need to see him. Why won't he see me?
[Kevin notices marks on Trina's arm.]
Where did you get those marks on your arm?
[Trina shrugs. Ben and Kevin turn away from Trina to keep her from hearing what they were saying.]
I saw those same marks on that zombie girl that tried to tenderize me.
TTrina
I just wanna see Mike.
[Ben and Kevin turn to Trina.]
[Ben and Kevin turn back to each other.]
Call me crazy, but is it possible Morningstar's the one making these girls this way?
[Trina approaches them.]
[Ben and Kevin turn to Trina.]
[Ben and Kevin turn back to each other.]
Look, it didn't really hit me till just now, but Gwen's been wearing her sleeves lower than usual. She was hiding something.
[Ben looks at the marks on Trina's arms. As Ben turns back to Kevin, Trina walks past them and walks into the house.]
You're saying Gwen has marks like that on her arms?
I didn't see them for sure, but it makes sense.
Come to think of it, Trina was all weak and wobbly when we first saw her on the highway.
[Kevin nods.]
Gwen was the same way at the power plant. Gwen might've caught whatever bug is doing this.
Yeah. And the bug's name is Mike Morningstar.
Fact is, you've been against Morningstar since the minute we met him.
Yeah, but at first, it was just 'cause he's an arrogant, bragging rich kid.
Who Gwen likes more than she likes you.
Yeah, some of that, but now Gwen's in trouble, and you're too stuck on following your grandpa's instructions to see it.
If Mike's turning those girls into creatures, why isn't Trina one?
I don't know! Maybe it's like a vampire thing. Maybe it takes a while before they go all-zombie.
Are you listening to yourself? Mike's been helping us ever since we got here. Why did he fight them with us?
Ah, but he didn't, remember? He told us not to hurt them. Then he accidentally blasted into the pipes and let them get away.
Even if you're right, we don't know where they went for dinner. How are we supposed to find her?
