Jake Fitzgerald quotes from Scream

Kieran's right. The gothic genre is all over TV right now. American Horror Story, Hannibal, Bates Motel.

Jake Fitzgerald

What about Texas Chainsaw or Halloween?

Noah Foster

Those are slasher movies. You can't do a slasher movie as a TV series. [everyones turns to Noah, Mr Branson then motions him to continue]

Noah Foster

Think about it. Girl and her friend arrive at the dance, the camp, deserted town, whatever. Killer takes them out one-by-one. Ninety minutes later, the sun comes up and survivor girl sits in the ambulance watching her friends' bodies being wheeled past.

Jake Fitzgerald

Who could resist a murder selfie?

Noah Foster

Which is what the killer is counting on.

Alright Will Graham, what is this killer's design?

Noah Foster

Well, murder is a lonely game, you know. I mean say you're the killer, OK, you sneak into Nina's house, skulk around, scare her and then you kill her. Boom. But then what? Take a victory lap around the pool? You just stand watching the blood spread out in the water, thinking crazy guy stuff.

Brooke Maddox

Creepy monologue alert.

Riley Marra

So maybe it's no good if he's the only one watching.

Noah Foster

Exactly, yeah, uh, it's the age of Instragram, YouTube and Tumblr. I mean we need to share the things we do or it's like it never happened. [Riley gets a text on her phone and takes her phone out to read it]

Riley, phones off.

Riley Marra

Sorry Mr. B. But my friend from St Mary's texted, a girl who goes there died! [everyone is shocked, especially Audrey, who immediately checks her phone]

Brooke Maddox

No way! Who was it?

Jake Fitzgerald

How'd it happen?

Riley Marra

It doesn't say.

I'm sorry to hear that. But why do we get back to...

Audrey Jensen

[while gets up from her seat] I've, uh... [starts to run out of the room and leaves] got to go to the bathroom!

Actually, we could all use a minute.

Jake Fitzgerald

Christian Grey's Red Room of Pain awaits you!

Brooke Maddox

Ew. That would literally be like doing my brother.

Jake Fitzgerald

Ah, so Game of Thrones? I'm cool with that!

This is my worst nightmare.

Jake Fitzgerald

Mine's the one where you realize all your teeth are loose, but yeah, having your junior high sex moves, like, all going viral is way worse.

Jake Fitzgerald

On a scale of one to ten, exactly how mad are you at me?

Brooke Maddox

Eleventy.

Jake Fitzgerald

This place is big. We should split up finding Will.

Noah Foster

Said no one who survived a horror movie ever.

Emma Duval

She's having an after party.

Jake Fitzgerald

Thank God, because this drink is undrinkable.
