Riley Marra quotes from Scream

Riley Marra

[dying words] I can see our stars.

Riley Marra

It's just crazy that we were talking about slasher movies in Language Arts. And then Nina gets slashed.

Noah Foster

Well technically she was already dead when we started that conversation. So there's no direct correlation.

Noah Foster

Gotta remember that the whodunit may not be as important in our story... You need to figure that it's a horror story, that someone might die at every turn. You have to care if the smokin' hot lit teacher seems a little too interested in his female students. You have to care if the team wins the big game. You have to care if the smart, pretty girl forgives the dumb jock.

Riley Marra

Sounds like Friday Night Lights.

Noah Foster

Exactly. You root for them, you love them, so when they are brutally murdered, it hurts.

Noah Foster

Oh, jeez! You're like a ninja!

Riley Marra

That's racist.

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.

Riley Marra

Still haven't heard from Noah. Everything was going great on the football field, then he raced off like the McRib was back.

Brooke Maddox

He's clearly afraid to make a move, and you're too gorg' for these romantic Special Olympics.

Riley Marra

Don't be mean.

Brooke Maddox

Not mean. Brutally honest. It's a different shade of mean.
