Chapter 1
Nick Curtis (19) is having sex with his girlfriend, MELISSA HOWARD (18), in his bedroom. Melissa demands that he goes harder and he does. She moans out loud. We PAN AWAY from them to the bedroom window. We can see the shadow of a person nearby. Is somebody watching them have sex? Melissa moans extremely loud and both she and Nick have an orgasm. Melissa gets off of Nick and they take a breather. She lays on his chest with their arms around each other. Melissa tells Nick that she loves him and Nick says that he loves her, too. Melissa suggests that they take a shower before she leaves. He agrees and they both get up. Outside Nick’s house, we find two GHOSTFACES. One of them breaks into Melissa’s car while the other stands by and keeps watch. What are these Ghostfaces up to?

In the shower, it’s a very steamy scene with Nick and Melissa holding each other close as they spread soap all over their bodies. They continue making out and making love in the shower. Meanwhile, Ghostface 2 hides in the backseat of Melissa’s car. Ghostface 1 hides behind some bushes by the windows. In the shower, Nick and Melissa rinses the soap off of each others bodies. Melissa opens the shower door and grabs a towel. She steps out of the shower as she wraps the towel around her body. Melissa tells Nick that she’s going to get dress and leave. Nick says okay and they kiss each other. As Melissa dries off, Nick stays in the shower. Sometime later, we find Melissa all dressed and leaving Nick’s house. She goes into her car. Before she can start her car, Ghostface 2 grabs her from behind, placing a knife at her throat. Melissa whimpers as she fears for her life.

Back in the house, Nick comes downstairs and goes to the living room. He sits at a chair and turns on the TV. That 70s Show is on. The current scene focuses on Michael Kelso and Jackie Burkhart. Nick comments on how much Kelso and Jackie looks like him and Melissa. Suddenly, his phone rings. Nick checks his phone. The call is from Melissa’s phone. He answers it. However, instead of Melissa’s voice, it’s Ghostface that he hears. Ghostface says, “Hello, Nick. Remember me?” Nick is horrified. While he never got a phone call from Ghostface in the previous story, he realizes that this is the Ghostface voice. He asks what he wants and what has he done with Melissa. Ghostface tells him to look out the front window. Nick moves to the front window and takes a peek. He is horrified when he finds Melissa tied to a chair.

Nick asks that Ghostface not hurt Melissa. Ghostface tells him that if he wants to save Melissa’s life, then he is to play a trivia game with him. Nick asks him what happens if he refuses. Ghostface informs him that he’ll kill Melissa. Nick stares at his terrified girlfriend and accepts the offer. Ghostface tells him that the rules are; If you answer two out of three right, your girlfriend lives. If you get two out of three wrong, Melissa dies. Despite his fears, Nick accepts these rules. So Ghostface asks the first question; “Who was the first U.S. President to be impeached?” Nick thinks about this question. He knows that Bill Clinton was impeached but survived conviction by the Senate. But he remembers that Richard Nixon resigned as a result of impeachment. So Nick chooses Nixon as his answer. Ghostface informs him that is the wrong answer. Ghostface reminds Nick that Nixon resigned before he could be impeached. Ghostface reveals that Andrew Johnson, the 17th President, was the first President to impeached after firing Secretary of War, Edwin Stanton, which was against the Tenure of Office Act at the time. Nick is horrified that he got this wrong.

Ghostface asks him another question; Which President served more than two terms? Ghostface claims that an idiot like Nick could figure this one out. Nick thinks hard and long about this one. Then he remembers that Franklin D. Roosevelt, the only President in the wheelchair, had served the longest time as President. Nick chooses FDR. Ghostface tells him that he got the right answer. Then Ghostface asks him the final question; Who is the oldest President of the United States? Nick thinks hard about this. There were a few old men who served as President. Such as William Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor, and Dwight D. Eisenhower (all who were also Generals). But Nick remembers Ronald Reagan being so old that he was referred to as the oldest President. Nick chooses Reagan. But Ghostface informs him that it’s the wrong answer. Nick rebuffs this rejection, saying that Reagan was 69 when he was elected. But Ghostface reveals that Donald Trump is the oldest President elected at 70 years old. Nick is horrified. How did he forget the current President? Not everyone may realize how old Trump is. Ghostface tells him that Melissa must die now.

And with that, Ghostface 2 is seen pulling out a knife and appears to aim for Melissa. Thinking fast, Nick grabs a knife and bursts out the door. As Ghostface 2 goes to stab Melissa, Nick jumps at him and stabs him multiple times. Ghostface 1 appears out of nowhere and decks Nick. He turns to his partner and unmasks him. We see a teenager, NILES CRANE (17), bleeding out of his mouth. He is dying as a result of being stabbed in the heart. Ghostface 1 removes his own mask to reveal himself as FRASIER CRANE (19). He holds his younger brother in his arms as he dies. Frasier cries. He turns to Nick and informs him that it was just a prank. Nick and Melissa are shocked as Fraiser shows them that their knives are retractable and not real. Niles Crane, brother of Frasier and Ghostface prankster 2, is dead. Angered at his brother’s death, Frasier grabs Nick’s knife and goes to stab him. Melissa screams over this. Nick catches his wrist and throws him to the ground. A fight breaks out between Nick and Frasier. Frasier continues to swing the knife at Nick. Eventually, after a stabbing attempt, Nick grabs his wrist and shoves the knife into Frasier’s chest. Frasier’s body falls to the ground. Frasier Crane, brother of Niles and Ghostface prankster 1, is dead.

Chapter 2
The next morning, we find our main characters (The Club); Andrew Carter, Daphne Price, Scott Lane, married couple Charlie and Iris Rodriguez, Nick, Melissa, Andrew’s sister Lorraine (who is now a member), and the Rosewood Five survivors; Emily Fields, Spencer Hastings, Emily’s biological brother Charles Drake, and Emily’s wife Sara Harvey together at the Clubhouse. The Clubhouse, of course, was originally built by the late Rick Grimes and his group before they were all killed by his adoptive brother Carl. Andrew is the current President of the Club with Scott as the Vice President. They are discussing last night’s attack on Nick and Melissa. Nick was not arrested due to the killings of the pranksters being in self-defense, especially when Frasier Crane attacked Nick with the intent to kill him. They state that they must be careful to watch out for prank callers and anyone who maybe serious. Especially those who are jealous of their survivor statuses and those who may believe that they’re phonies and will try to prove it.

Meanwhile, we find that Elliot Rollins has retired and is living in a house with his adoptive daughter Sara and daughter-in-law Emily. Elliot is on a typewriter and typing his memoirs. He thinks back to his biggest failure of his career; Bethany Young. Elliot remembers when he first met Bethany. She was young and innocent looking. But he knew deep down that she was lost and that her soul was damaged. Elliot vowed to cure and fix Bethany. But he could never face the ultimate truth about her; She never wanted to be fixed. She was doomed the moment that she killed Marion Cavanaugh when she was eight years old. To this day, the rise and fall of Bethany Young haunts him. He is haunted by the fact that by not saving her, many innocent people were killed. But at the same time, he is haunted by the fact that he could not save her and that he had to personally put down his beautiful but evil patient.

The young married couple arrive home as Elliot finishes a chapter. Despite being only seventy-nine, Elliot is not in the best health and his body is deteriorating than most men in their 70s. Emily and Sara see their father struggling and are concerned about him as he tries to stand up. They attempt to help him. But Elliot tells his daughters that he’s got it. He smiles and kisses them both. Nevertheless, they escort him to his recliner chair so that he can watch his TV. As he sits down, he asks them how the club meeting went. Emily and Sara informs Elliot that Nick and Melissa were attacked by pranksters last night. A concerned Elliot asks if they’re okay. The girls tell him that they are as Nick had killed them both in self-defense.

Across the street from the Carters, we find that Charlie and Iris are living in a boarding house. It is comfortable and perfect for a young newly wedded couple. Iris tells Charlie that she’s worried that someone might try to kill them again if Nick and Melissa are getting pranksters after them. Charlie tries to ease his wife’s fears by reminding her that everyone involved with the murders are dead. Iris reminds him that Lorraine had seen another killer kill one of her lovers while their killer, Francis, fought him off. Charlie says that many believe that was someone who Mark (the lover who Brandonface killed in that fight scene) pissed off. Charlie points out that Mark had a lot of enemies. Iris calms down and tells her husband that he’s right. He walks over to her and kisses her. Charlie vows to make sure that nobody ever hurts her. They smile and hug each other.

At the Carters, we find that Clarence has a difficult time getting out of bed. Kathy turns to him and offers to assist him. Clarence says that he needs to try to do it by himself. It’s clear that Clarence has a back injury. We find a newspaper clipping on his dresser. It’s headline says, “Former Sheriff and Murder Survivor Injured in Accident”, explaining Clarence’s back injury. As a result, he is now retired and a stay-at-home father. Clarence and Kathy exit from their room. We find Lorraine in her bedroom. She can hear the bicycle coming by. She looks out her window. Little Man, a little older than when we last saw him, stands outside with his bicycle (as he no longer needs a tricycle). Lorraine goes downstairs, passing her parents by in the living room. Clarence asks her where she’s going. Lorraine says that she’s stepping outside to visit someone. As Lorraine goes into the kitchen, Clarence has a sad look on her face. He knows who Lorraine is going to see. Kathy notices the look on his face and asks him what is wrong. Clarence says that it’s nothing.

Lorraine walks outside through the back sliding glass door. She approaches Little Man, who is smiling at her. But Lorraine can’t smile. She hugs Little Man with sadness. Little Man asks her what is wrong. Lorraine looks into his eyes. There is so much sadness. Lorraine tells him that as much as she has enjoyed their time together, she unfortunately has to end their visits. Little Man asks why. Lorraine is honest about it. She tells him that she is not able to be his mother. She doesn’t want to be a mother. She feels that she is not fit to be a mother. Lorraine tells him that she cannot see him anymore. Little Man starts to cry, saying, “But I love you, Mommy.” This breaks Lorraine’s heart as she sees the pain in her own son. But Lorraine must stand her ground and stick with her guns. She tells him that she’s not his mother. She brutally tells him that she doesn’t love him. Little Man is shocked and hurt by this statement. Lorraine tells him that he has to leave and tells him never to come back again.

Lorraine goes back inside the house and Little Man starts riding off. But when doing so, Little Man begins to sob hysterically. He has just lost his mother. Lorraine hurries back upstairs to her room, without even looking or saying anything to her parents. When she gets to her bedroom, Lorraine closes the door and jumps on her bed. She begins sobbing. There is some regret. She feels horrible for this. But Lorraine feels that this is the best thing for herself. As Little Man rides back home, we zoom in on his haunting, dark, hurting eyes. They turn black with each tear he drops. In the past when Little Man killed someone, it was the under influence towards a misguided child. But this is different. Little Man is no longer a misguided, heavily influenced, and manipulated child. Little Man is now the villain. He is now the one who’s going to push Brandonface for action. This is the new Little Man. This is the Rise of the Little Screamer.

Chapter 3
At the Clubhouse, our main characters are having a party to celebrate the second anniversary of the Club’s official formation as “The Clearwood Club.” Everyone is drinking and is with their respective best friend and significant other; Andrew and Daphne, Charlie and Iris, Emily and Sarah, Nick and Melissa. Scott, Lorraine, Charles, and Spencer are the only ones who are single. Andrew asks his older sister how she feels about being apart of the Club, which she is still new to. Lorraine expresses that it’s okay. She points out that she’s not use to this kind of crowd but that it is growing on to her. Lorraine is usually out in wild parties, dancing, drinking, drugs, and sex. While there is drinking at this party, it’s not a crazy party. It’s a group of friends hanging out. Sara looks at her phone and checks the time. Her wife asks her what is it. Sara smiles and just says that it’s about time that their father goes out for a walk.

Back at the Rollins-Harvey/Fields home, Elliot notices the time. It’s time for his evening walk. He slowly gets up and puts on his jacket and hat. He grabs his cane and heads out the door. Outside in the neighborhood, Elliot slowly walks alone, attempting to get his strength back. But what he doesn’t know is that he’s being watched and followed by a van. The driver waits until Elliot is in an empty area. Elliot finds himself in the park, which is deserted. Not many houses around the park. The van stops and the driver sneaks out of the van without Elliot noticing him. Elliot is walking in the middle of the park when -- WHACK! Elliot falls to the ground. He looks up to see -- BRANDONFACE. Elliot is horrified by his presence. A new killer to haunt the Club. Elliot asks him what he wants. But rather than answer him, Brandonface knocks him out with his own cane. Elliot is unconscious.

Back at the party, Charles is getting himself another drink when Spencer approaches the beer bucket. Charles asks her what she would like. Spencer chooses a Stella. Charles finds a Stella and hands it to her. She thanks him and asks him how he’s doing. Charles says that he’s just chilling and enjoying the party. Spencer says that she’s doing the same. Charles asks Spencer if she’d like to sit and chat. Spencer accepts the offer. They find a place to sit and start talking. Charles says that he’s glad that the club has made it to two years, which Spencer is also glad for. Spencer says that she never thought they’d find another home outside of Rosewood.

Iris and Charlie are slowing down their drinking as they’re trying to take care of each other like regular married couples do. Charlie is driving and doesn’t want to put his wife in danger. Iris is the “innocent” one of the club anyways. Spencer notices their interaction and behavior towards each other. She really wants something like that so badly. But she’s afraid to get close to anyone after Eric. Nick is getting drunk. But Melissa isn’t drinking that much. She’s going to be driving. Andrew and Daphne are drinking moderately. Lorraine and Scott are both getting drunk. Scott slightly hits on her. Lorraine catches on to it. They use to hate each other. But they’ve gotten closer since the murders. She flirts back. Emily and Sara are drinking just a little to enjoy themselves but not to get drunk. They want to be sober to care for Elliot when they get home.

Meanwhile, at a dark and unknown location to us, we find Elliot chained to a table. Brandonface and Little Man appear. Elliot asks what do they want from him. Brandonface tells him that they’re on a mission to destroy Lorraine Carter by hurting those close to her and her family. Elliot asks what that has to do with him. Brandonface points that the Rosewood Five has joined the Clearwood Club, therefore, are now targets. Brandonface tells him that he’s the first victim to be chosen because of how weak he is compared to the rest of the main characters. Brandonface points out that he could barely walk and asks “If you can’t walk, then what’s the point in having legs?” And with that, Little Man uses an electric saw to saw off Elliot’s legs. Elliot screams out over his leg being sawed off. Brandonface says that they have plenty of time and would like to have some fun. They’re not going to simply kill an old man without having some fun. Little Man grabs a hot iron and places them on the sawed off legs, cauterizing his severed legs.

Chapter 4
Charles parks outside Spencer’s apartment building. She thanks him for driving her home. Charles says that it was his pleasure. Spencer says that she had fun hanging out with him at the party tonight. Charles says that he had fun with her, too. Spencer and Charles hug each other. As they slowly release each other, they look deep into each other’s eyes. They slowly lean to each other but stop short of kissing each other, uncertain rather they should do it or not. Charles asks if he’ll see her tomorrow. Spencer says that they will see each other tomorrow. She gets out of his car and walks to her apartment building. Charles sighs with disappointment. He really wanted to kiss her. Spencer is petrified with the situation. She obviously likes Charles. But she doesn’t know rather she should do this or not.

Emily and Sara arrive home. They call out for their father. But they get no response. They look around the house. But they cannot find Elliot. They realize that his jacket and hat are missing. They realize that he hasn’t come home from his walk. They rush back into their car and starts driving around the area. They do not see him around their neighborhood. They ask people who are walking around if they’ve seen Elliot. Nobody has seen him. Emily and Sara drive by the same park where he was attacked. They find his hat and cane. They notice blood on the cane from when Brandonface had whacked him. They panic as they realize of the possibility that their father has been kidnapped.

We cut to later, Sheriff Mallory is on the scene. He and his Deputies takes the cane in as evidence. Mallory asks the girls when they last saw their father. Sara tells him that they last saw him before they left for the club’s party. Mallory asks why their father would be out in the middle of the night. Sara tells him that Elliot always takes a walk in the mornings, afternoons, and nights. Sara believes that he went out for a walk and was attacked by someone. Mallory asks if they know of anybody who would want to hurt Elliot. Emily reminds Mallory that they’re survivors of murder sprees. Mallory asks if they believe that Elliot’s disappearance is related to either the Rosewood murders or the Clearwood murders. The girls says that they don’t know but that they hope not. Mallory promises to find their father.

At their hideout, we find Elliot sleeping. He is awoken by the sound of a door opening and shutting. He lifts his head up to find the two killers returning. Brandonface holds a rag over his face. Little Man pours a bucket of water over the rag. Elliot panics as he feels the illusions of drowning from the waterboarding. Brandonface nods at Little Man to stop the pouring, which he complies with. Brandonface removes the rag and asks Elliot how that felt. Elliot says that he thought that he was drowning. Brandonface tells him that this is a torture method that many governments have used to get information from their imprisoned enemies. Brandonface says he just likes torturing people for fun.

The next morning at the Clubhouse, everyone has heard about Elliot’s disappearance. They all discuss about some possibilities. Some of them suggests that Elliot could be a victim of a random attack. Some suggests that it could be a crazy fan who has kidnapped him. Sara and Emily cannot think as they’re too scared and thinking about Elliot to come up with ideas. Andrew says that he hopes that the police find Elliot alive and bring him home to them. Andrew adjourns the group. Spencer and Lorraine walk out together as they talk. Spencer tells Lorraine that as someone who has lost her family, she’s afraid for Sara and Emily. Lorraine asks about her family. Spencer tells her about her little sister, Nancy. Spencer tells her how she witnessed her burned alive. Lorraine is horrified over this. But as Spencer talks about Nancy, mentioning her name a lot, Lorraine is intrigued by the name. Lorraine says that she likes the name “Nancy”, saying that it’s a cute name for a girl.

Back at the hideout, Elliot is chained upside down similar to Jake. Little Man appears with a knife. Brandonface can be heard in the background, telling Elliot that they must move on. He says that they’ve played with him enough. Brandonface says that he’s teaching Little Man how to take on this legacy for himself. So with that, Little Man must do the honors of taking out the first victim. As Little Man approaches Elliot, the old man begs for the little boy to not be like the guy in the mask. Elliot tries to tell him that he’s just a child and doesn’t understand what he’s doing. But Little Man gives him a dark-cold look and says that he knows what he’s doing. Elliot is horrified that this innocent looking child is not only capable of doing this but that he wants to do this. Elliot tells him that he doesn’t have to do this. But Little Man is ignoring him. He raises the knife up. Elliot continues to plead with the child. Little Man stabs Elliot in the stomach and rips the knife down to his chest. Elliot’s blood and organs pour out of his long wound. Elliot Rollins, a Rosewood survivor, the adoptive father of Sara, and father-in-law of Emily, is dead.

Chapter 5
Scott stands alone outside a movie theater. He has two tickets in hand for the movie, “Tarevender.” Iris and Charlie join him with their own tickets. They asks him where his date is. Scott tells them that she’s on her way. A car parks by them. They recognize the car. The driver comes out. It’s Lorraine, who just happens to be Scott’s date. Lorraine smiles and says hi to everyone. Iris and Charlie are surprised that Lorraine is his date. Scott hands her, her ticket and the couples walk into the theater together. They stand in line of the food counter and discusses what they want to eat and drink. Charlie and Iris are going to share a big popcorn together. Lorraine says that Scott and her can either share or have their own popcorn. Scott says that he’s willing to pay for them to have their own, which Lorraine agrees to. Just as they’re about to order, they hear a familiar voice ordering a medium popcorn and a soda on the other side of the counter.

All four turn to see Miguel De La Cruz (29), their former English teacher. Miguel notices them and smiles. Lorraine has a look of familiarity towards him on her face. He notices this, giving her an eye that shows that there is history between them. The couples order as Miguel pays for his food and drink. As they pay, he approaches them. He says hello to them all. Lorraine says that it’s been a long time, which Miguel agrees that it has been. Scott asks Lorraine if she had Miguel for English. Lorraine, obviously lying, says that she did. Iris is confused by this. She apparently knows something that Lorraine doesn’t know. But she doesn’t say anything about it. Charlie tells Miguel that it’s good to see him, which Miguel says that it’s good to see him, too. Iris tells Miguel that she and Charlie got married. Miguel congratulates them. He asks his former students what they’ve been up to since they graduated.

The four look at each other, deciding rather or not to tell Miguel about the current situation or not. They nod with approval. Lorraine tells Miguel that their friends’ father is missing and says that he’s very vulnerable. Scott asks him if he’s seen an old man walking around that may be hurt. Miguel says that he hasn’t. Iris says that he’s Elliot Rollins from the Rosewood Five. Miguel is shocked by this. He asks if they believe that he may have been kidnapped by another killer targeting the Clearwood survivors and the Rosewood Five. Iris informs him that, that is their biggest fear right now. Miguel sighs and says that he’s been there for them twice now when a murder spree has occurred, therefore, if there is another killer out there, then he wants to be there for them now. This touches them very much. He may have been their teacher, but Miguel was very young and friendly like an older brother to them. Scott asks Miguel if he’d like to join them for the movie and to come by their club afterwards. Miguel accepts the offer.

Later at the Clubhouse, Andrew, Daphne, Spencer, Charles, Emily, Sara, Nick, and Melissa are just chilling and talking to each other. Lorraine, Scott, Iris, and Charlie return with Miguel. Andrew sees him and welcomes him to the Club. Miguel looks around, curious and intrigued by the club, and compliments the place. Andrew tells him that the late Rick Grimes was responsible for this club. Miguel sadly nods his head in acknowledgment of his former deceased student. Iris points out Emily and Sara to Miguel, who approaches them. He tells him that he’s sorry to hear about their father. He tells them that he’s there for them if they need anything and that he’ll help with the Club’s search for him. The couple smiles and thanks him.

Scott approaches Andrew and tells him that they should recruit their former teacher into the club, reminding him that he’s technically a survivor. Andrew sees this logic and agrees. Andrew approaches Miguel and asks him why he’d like to be part of their club. Miguel says that he loved what Clearwood was like before it became “Murderwood.” He says that he’d like to see it back in it’s glory days before the murders. He reminds them that he has lost many students to these murders and wants to help stop it for good. Andrew smiles and offers him his hand. Miguel takes it and they shake hands. Andrew welcomes Miguel to the club as an official member. And with that, Miguel De La Cruz, former teacher of the club, is now a member of the Clearwood Club. The rest of the club applauds this.

As the rest of the club does their own thing, Iris pulls Lorraine aside and informs her that she knows that Lorraine lied about having Miguel for a teacher. Lorraine asks how she knows this. Iris reminds Lorraine that she graduated a few years before they became seniors, which Lorraine is aware of. Then Iris reveals that Miguel’s first year as a teacher was their senior year. Therefore, Lorraine could not have had Miguel for a teacher. Iris tells her that she saw the look on Miguel and Lorraine’s faces when they saw each other at the theater. Iris guesses that Miguel is a former lover of Lorraine. Lorraine confirms this and asks that she promises to never tell anyone. Iris promises to keep this a secret.

Chapter 6
At Sara and Emily’s house, the couple are sitting on the couch with Spencer. Although, it’s been two weeks since Elliot’s disappearance, they’re still hoping that Elliot will be found alive and well. Spencer tells them about her and Charles almost kissing the other night. Emily asks her how she feels about her brother. Spencer confesses that she has always had a crush on him, even when she was with Eric/Jenna. When she first felt this, she thought it was just that she found him attractive. But after Eric/Jenna’s reveal and death, she realized that she was feeling more about him. Spencer reveals that this is the true reason that she gave up on love. Because she knew her feelings for Charles were becoming real and didn’t want to risk anything with him. Spencer admits to Emily that she is in love with Charles. Emily smiles that her “sister” has feelings for her brother. Emily tells her that if she truly loves Charles, then she should act on her feelings. Emily reminds her that it’s been seven years since Eric/Jenna’s death, therefore, Spencer should give love another chance. Spencer takes a moment to think about. Emily convinces her that it’s a risk worth taking.

At Melissa’s apartment, Melissa is sitting on the toilet and thinking. She’s been having many symptoms of something; morning sickness, frequent need to pee, and the need to eat and drink more. Melissa feels that it’s time for her to know the truth. Before she urinates, she pulls out a small packet. It’s a pregnancy test. Meanwhile, Nick is at his house, when he gets a phone call. It’s Brandonface, who congratulates Nick on killing the prankster. But he claims that he’s a better killer than Nick and that he’s going to prove that by killing Nick. Alarmed by this, Nick goes into the kitchen and grabs a knife. Nick tells Brandonface that he won’t let him get to him. Nick claims that he will take Brandonface out. Brandonface laughs and says, “Good luck, kid.” He hangs up.

We cut back to Melissa, who is peeing with the test under her. We cut back to Nick, who is looking around his house for the killer. He’s totally alone in the dark. Brandonface comes out from behind. Nick hears him coming and spins around. But Brandonface slashes his stomach, causing him to drop the knife. Before Nick can do anything else, Brandonface repeatedly stabs him in the abdomen. Nick Curtis, boyfriend of Melissa and a Clearwood Club survivor, is dead. We cut back to Melissa. She is looking at the pregnancy test. She gasps in shock and begins crying. The pregnancy test is positive. Melissa is pregnant with Nick’s child.

Back at Nick’s house, Brandonface is cutting and mutilating Nick’s body. Suddenly, Nick’s phone dings. Brandonface checks Nick’s text message. It’s from Melissa. The message says, “I have something I have to tell you. But I must tell you in person.” Brandonface pretends to be Nick and replies to her, saying, “Come over and we can talk about it.” Melissa replies with, “On my way.” And with that, Brandonface continues his work on Nick’s body.

Sometime later, Melissa arrives and parks in front of Nick’s house. She goes up to the front door and knocks. But the door opens when her fist touches the door. She slowly moves inside and calls out to Nick. But there is no answer. She looks around and continues to call out for her boyfriend. She moves upstairs and finds his bedroom door open. She walks in. But by doing so, she trips a rope, which causes a bucket above her to pour out it’s contents all over her. The contents, of course, being blood, intestines, other organs, and a hard ball-like object. Melissa is shocked by the blood and organs. She looks down at the ball-like object. She lets out a blood curling scream upon realizing what it is. It’s Nick’s head.

We cut to later. The police are everywhere. Melissa is wrapped around a towel, crying, and in shock over Nick’s death. Sheriff Mallory tries to talk to her. But she is too shocked to speak. She turns to see the police take away what is left of her boyfriend’s body.

Chapter 7
The next day, the entire Club has learned about Nick’s murder. They are devastated by this loss. What’s even worse is that they all just found out that Melissa is pregnant with his child. Now his child is going to grow up without a father and Melissa will have to raise the child alone. With Nick’s murder, Sara and Emily are now fearing that their father may have been kidnapped and possibly killed by Nick’s killer. However, they remain hopeful that their father will turn up alive. Andrew vows to the Club that they will stop this killer before he hurts anyone else and that they will help Melissa with her baby. Everyone agrees to this.

Clarence and Kathy are also mourning Nick, who they thought of as a son after the events of the previous story. Clarence is continuing his struggles in regaining his strength and abilities since his work-related accident. Clarence takes his time from getting up from the couch to walking to the kitchen. He opens a cupboard and pulls out a bottle of Scotch. He also grabs a glass cup. He puts some ice in the glass before pouring himself some Scotch. As he slowly drinks, he looks beyond the sliding glass door and sees Andrew and Daphne talking outside the driveway. He’s scared for his son and his girlfriend. Andrew has already suffered through two other murder sprees, with Daphne surviving one of them, and now he’s wondering if they’re going through another one.

Spencer and Charles are at the clubhouse and cleaning up together. They are the happiest when they are together. Yet, neither one of them has told this to the other. They continue to hold in their feelings. Afraid to admit anything or make any kind of move for each other. Spencer has been thinking about what Emily has told her. She ponders over this as they finish up. Charles offers to give her a ride home, which she accepts. On the ride home, Charles asks her how she’s feeling. Spencer admits that she’s scared. She’s worried about Elliot, Sara, and Emily. She’s horrified over Nick’s death. Charles tells her that if there is another killer out there, he’ll protect her. She turns to him and smiles, patting his lap. When they make it to her apartment, she thanks him for the ride. They hug each other. After slowly releasing each other, like last time, they stare into each other’s eyes. They slowly lean forward to each other. But unlike last time, they don’t stop until their lips meet. Spencer and Charles kiss. They smile and express their happiness for finally doing so.

Spencer says that she’s wanted to do that for a while, which Charles claims that he has, too. Spencer admits that she loves him, which Charles says that he loves her, too. Charles admits that he’s always loved her. Charles asks her if she’d like to give another chance at love and be with him. Spencer smiles and says that she’s been thinking about that lately. She tells him that Emily has told her to take that risk, saying that the risk is worth. Charles agrees that it is. Spencer says that if anyone, that she’d like to take this risk for Charles. Spencer agrees to be with Charles. And with that, Spencer and Charles are officially a couple in a relationship. They kiss again before Spencer gets out of the car. Spencer walks to her apartment. She turns back multiple times to stare and smile at her new boyfriend. Charles sits there, smiling at her, and watches her safely go into her apartment.

Back at the Carter’s, Lorraine is laying on her bed and looking through some text messages between her and Scott. She goes through pictures of her, Andrew, Scott, and her family. There is a picture of her and Scott together. It was a time when they didn’t exactly get along. She thought of him as a homeless lazy orphan and he thought of her as a cold-hearted whore. But time has changed their opinions of each other. It’s clear to us that Scott has fallen for her. But now Lorraine is realizing that she’s falling in love with Scott. She smiles at the picture of her and Scott.

Her phone rings and she answers it. It’s Brandonface, who says “Hello, Lorraine. Remember me?” And with that, Lorraine has flashbacks of Brandonface at the dance when she found Keith and Trip’s bodies and his attack on her and Mark from the first story. Lorraine asks Brandonface what he wants from her. Brandonface says that it’s not just what he wants from her, it’s what someone else wants from her. She’s totally confused and asks about the other person. Brandonface says that someone that she abandoned, the one person she should have been with and loved. Lorraine is so confused and believes this is about a former lover. Lorraine tells him that she can’t be with him, stating that she’s changing for the better and is trying to start something with someone. Brandonface tells her that this isn’t about being with a man. He informs her that it’s about her not taking responsibility of someone that belongs to her. It’s now that Lorraine realize who he’s talking about. Lorraine asks if this has anything to do with her son. Brandonface confirms this. Brandonface says that she’s going to pay for her abandoning him. Brandonface hangs up. Lorraine is horrified by this revelation. Is Little Man really involved with the murders or this an excuse the killer is giving her?

Chapter 8
That same night, Emily and Sara are continuing their search for their father. They drive around town, looking at places that Elliot would often visit. They asks people passing by if they’ve seen him. Nobody has seen or knows anything. They are slowly starting to lose hope. As the night grows late, the couple decides to call it a night and heads back home. As they drive back, they see a figure walking across the road. It’s Little Man. They swerve to miss and hits brake. They get out of the car and approach the child. Emily goes to him and asks if he’s okay. Little Man eyes Sara. Emily turns to his eye’s directions. She finds Brandonface behind her wife. She warns her about the man behind her. But before Sara can react, Brandonface knocks her out. Emily turns back to Little Man, who knocks her out with a candlestick (that’s for you, Alex). We cut to black.

We fade into Brandonface and Little Man’s hideout. Both Emily and Sara are tied to chairs. Brandonface and Little Man walk in. Little Man gives off a cute-innocent but creepy smile. The girls are horrified by this. They realize that they’re in the presence of the new killer and his young apprentice. Brandonface says that celebrities like the Rosewood Four are not invincible. Sara angrily corrects him by referring to themselves as the Rosewood Five. But Brandonface informs them not anymore. He nods to Little Man, who walks to a closet. He opens it and pulls out the mutilated corpse of Elliot Rollins. The girls scream and cry when they see their father’s dead body.

Sara calls Brandonface a motherfucker for killing her adoptive father. Brandonface tells her that he’s proving a point in killing him. He tells them that they should not have came to Clearwood to be with the Club. He tells them that they should have stayed at Rosewood and that by coming to Clearwood, they’ve made things more harder for everyone, including themselves and the killers. Brandonface says that by being here, that they are in his way of being around their target. The girls asks who their target is. Little Man pulls out a picture of his mother. The couple gasps in horror when they realize who their target is. Lorraine is the reason for this latest murder spree.

Brandonface says that he has to kill one of them now. He says that it’s no fun to kill both, adding that he wants one of them to live long enough to send a message to the entire club and Carter family. Brandonface tells the couple that one of them is gonna to confirm to Lorraine and to everyone that this is for Little Man and that Lorraine is about to face the biggest nightmare that she’s ever had to endure. Brandonface tells Little Man to hand him “Lucille.” Little Man hands his partner “Lucille.” Lucille is a wooden bat with a barb wire around it. Much like Negan’s bat, “Lucille”, from The Walking Dead. Brandonface asks Little Man which one they should kill. Little Man looks them over and says that he can’t decide. Brandonface suggest that they kill Sara, saying that Emily is the original Rosewood survivor, therefore, she should live longer. Little Man agrees, adding that he finds her the prettier one out of the two anyways. Brandonface agrees.

Brandonface looks at Sara, who, though scared, is trying to be brave about this. Sara would rather die than allow her wife to be Lucilled. Accepting her fate, Sara turns to Emily and tells her wife that she loves her. And with that, Brandonface slams Lucille against Sara’s head. Emily screams at the sight of her wife being bashed. But Sara looks back up. Her head is bleeding out. Brandonface says, “Look at that. Taking it like a champ.” Sara replies with, “Suck my nuts!”, which is funny considering that she’s a woman. And with that Brandonface continues to bash her head again.

After hitting her two more times after the first, Sara slowly raises her head up again. Her face is destroyed. Her forehead smashed in. Her left eye is poking out of it’s socket. She tries to speak. But she’s suffering from a major trauma that it’s made her unable to speak clearly. Emily cries at the sight of Sara’s face being destroyed. Sara turns to Emily and says, “Em...Em...Emily…I will find you.” And with that Brandonface continues his assault on Sara’s head with Lucille. Emily screams out as Brandonface continues to bash Sara’s head. Lucille is plastered with Sara’s blood, flesh, and brain. Parts of her blood, flesh, and brain matter splatter on Emily. Sara’s head is nothing more than beaten meat now. Sara Harvey, wife of Emily Fields, adoptive daughter of the late Elliot Rollins, a former member of Rosewood Five/Four (now three), and a member of the Clearwood Club, is dead.

Brandonface and Little Man laugh sadistically. Little Man is a changed person. When we last saw him killing people in the previous stories, he was doing so as a child that was doing so under influence of a powerful killer. But now, Little Man is truly the evil one. He actually enjoys all of this and has pleasure in killing and watching others being killed. Brandonface laughs with him, saying, “Did you hear that? She said ‘suck my nuts!’”, which leads them to giving each other a low-five. Emily is horrified by the child’s behavior. How could a little boy be involved in this? Emily is devastated at the loss of her wife and father-in-law to the point that she’s now given up. Emily demands that they end it by killing her. Brandonface declines this request, saying that she must fulfill her duty. Once she has relayed their message to Lorraine and to the others, then, “You have my permission to die.” And with that, Brandonface knocks Emily unconscious and we cut to black.

Chapter 9 (Lorraine's Redemption)
It’s the same night that Sara got Lucilled by Brandonface. Emily’s unconscious body was dumped along with the bodies of Sara Harvey and Elliot Rollins at a ditch nearby the Clubhouse. Sheriff Mallory and the paramedics are now there. Emily is being check out by paramedics. She cries as she watches Sara and Elliot’s bodies being loaded into the coroner’s van. Spencer, Charles, Scott, and Lorraine arrive to see what has happened. Emily gets up and approaches Lorraine. She cries, collapsing on Lorraine’s shoulder. Lorraine holds her and tells how sorry she is about Elliot and Sara. Emily says that the killers let her live to send her a message. Lorraine asks her what the message was. Emily says that this, the new killings, is all for Little Man. Lorraine is shocked and horrified by this message. The rest stare at Lorraine, reacting to the look on her face. They realize that Lorraine knows who and what this is all about.

The next day at the Carter’s, The entire Carter family; Clarence, Kathy, Lorraine, and Andrew, and the rest of the club; Scott, Daphne, Iris, Charlie, Melissa, Spencer, Charles, Emily, and Miguel are together to discuss what they have learned. Emily informs everyone that there are two killers; One in a Brandon James costume and a little boy. Emily tells them that they’re killing everyone for Little Man over Lorraine. Clarence and Andrew, who know about Little Man, gives each other the “No fucking way” look. Kathy and the others have no idea who or what Little Man is. Lorraine reminds everyone that she had a son that she gave up for adoption. Everyone remembers this. She asks everyone if they have noticed a little boy riding around in the neighborhood on his bicycle in the last few years. Everyone remembers the little boy. Now Lorraine drops the bombshell on them; “That is my son.” Everyone, Kathy more specifically, is shocked over this revelation.

Andrew and Clarence both confess to Kathy that they knew about this. She asks why they didn’t tell her. They inform her that Lorraine didn’t want anyone knowing about him. Lorraine tells them that she didn’t want the responsibility of having a child, saying that she wasn’t ready. She doesn’t believe in abortion but didn’t want him. She also says, even though her parents wished to raise him, that she didn’t want her problems to be a burden on her family. But her parents insists that being family, it’s part of their life to take on a burden for her. Lorraine says that she didn’t want that at the time. But she confesses that she now regrets this decision. Even though she just recently rejected him, apart of her was starting to love her boy. She says that if she could, she’d take it all back and have raised him since the day that he was born. But now it’s too late. He’s turned evil and into a killer and she blames herself. They all try to comfort her. Lorraine hugs Emily, telling her how sorry for her problems causing the death of her wife and father-in-law. Emily says that she doesn’t blame her. Everyone comes in for a group hug. Both the Club and the family together.

Clarence says that they should focus on finding Brandonface and killing him. Then they should try to save Little Man and make him good again. Kathy seconds this. Andrew concurs with this. Everyone else agrees to this. Lorraine takes a moment to think about this. Lorraine finally nods in agreement. She tells everyone that this is her son. He is family. If there is any chance that they have to saving him and bringing him back to the light, then they shall take that opportunity. Emily, who is aware of Little Man’s part in Sara and Elliot’s murders, blames Brandonface and believes that Little Man was manipulated into all of this. Therefore, she’ll forgive him and help redeem him. It’s what Elliot and Sara would have wanted. Much like Elliot wanted to save Bethany. Elliot failed in redeeming Bethany. But Emily wants to make up for that by redeeming Little Man for Lorraine and for everyone.

That night, Scott is in his spare bedroom in the basement. He is lying on his bed and watching TV. There is a knock at his door. Scott tells the knocker to come in. The door opens and Lorraine walks in. Scott asks her if she’s okay. Lorraine says that she’s trying to be okay. Scott makes room for Lorraine to come lay down with him. Lorraine and Scott cuddles together. It’s clear that they’re trying to be more than just friends. Lorraine asks if Scott believes that they can save her son. Scott says that he believes that they can try. Lorraine says that she regrets everything she has done. She states that all of this has made her want to change. But she says that it’s Scott who has made her want to change the most. Scott says that he’s glad to have helped. Lorraine informs Scott that Little Man’s father doesn’t know about him. But that if they can save Little Man, and she’s able to raise him, that she wants Scott to be his father. Scott smiles and tells her that if they can save her son, that he can become their son together. This puts a tear to Lorraine’s eyes. Scott has just devoted himself to her and her child.

Lorraine tells Scott that she loves him and Scott tells her that he loves her back. They laugh as they remind each other that it was not long ago that they use to hate each other with a passion. They use to make fun of each other and say shit about each other behind their backs. But it’s clear that the murders have not only brought them close, but that it has brought them together for love. They begin to kiss. Their kissing turns into a makeout session. The makeout gets hot and heavy. Then it turns into them having sex. Lorraine and Scott have sex for the first time together.

NOTE: As of this chapter, Lorraine Carter has fully redeemed herself into a caring, loving, and good person. She’s no longer a selfish, partying, whore that we’re use to seeing her as. She has fallen in love and wants to have a normal future with Scott and her family.

Chapter 10 (By Noah)
NOTE: This is a special chapter. It was written by Noah due to the nature of this episode and who it revolves around. Let's give this chapter the respect it deserves.

We open on Emily’s home, where Emily is walking around. She doesn’t look any better than chapter 9, a very emotional mess. With her adoptive father and her wife dead, Emily is in a state of depression. She takes out something from a bag. It’s anti-depression pills, one of which she swallows. Emily then collapses on her bed, looking up. As she lies down, Emily gets a phone call. Knowing what this is from experience, Emily picks up the phone and does the bitchy “What?” to Brandonface. Brandonface asks her how she’s doing. Emily frowns and tells Brandonface that she’s sick of being played with. He killed her adoptive father, then her wife, and she’s going to make him pay.

Emily assures him that nothing is going to change that. Brandonface is impressed that Emily has the guts to threaten him after what he’s done. He says that if Emily really wants a chance to kill him, then step out into the hallway and embrace her fate. Brandonface hangs up. Emily then hears a noise in the hallway. Knowing where this is going, she slips off her shoes so she can fight and goes out the door. Emily quickly spots Brandonface on the other side of the hallway with his knife. Emily is not even phased, and just stares at the killer. Emily clenches her fists and mutters “Bring it, fucker”.

Brandonface runs at Emily. The old final girl is not afraid of death, and watches as the hulking killer comes for her. He goes to stab Emily, but Emily dodges the slash and smacks the knife out of his hand. It’s out of both their reach. Emily and Brandonface then engage to hand to hand combat. Although Brandonface is a very powerful killer, Emily proves she hasn’t lost her touch. Brandonface is pushed to his full efforts to fight her. Emily gets some kicks on Brandonface, while Brandonface gets hard punches. Brandonface throws Emily against a wall. He goes to punch her, but she ducks. Emily does a kick on Brandonface’s chest, knocking him back.

She keeps up the momentum and does a hard kick right into the killer’s face. We hear a crack. Brandonface screams. Blood is leaking through the nose holes in Brandonface’s mask, and it is evident that his nose is broken. Emily smiles and cracks her knuckles, ready for round two. Brandonface, although hurt, kicks Emily across the face, sending her against a wall. She now has a blood lip. Emily wipes the blood of her face and continues to fight. Brandonface and Emily throw punch and after punch. Eventually, they get tired. Emily manages to recover faster and kicks Brandonface in the groin, then knees him in the face.

Brandonface tumbles down to the floor. Emily wraps her hands around his throat, and begins to strangle him. Brandonface resists, but is headbutted by Emily. She is ready to avenge her adoptive father and her wife. However, just before Emily can finish, Brandonface’s knife and stabbed in her back; it’s Little Man, who was planning to intervene if Brandonface was losing. Emily shrieks. She turns around, but Little Man quickly stabs the knife into her stomach. Emily gasps and collapses. Brandonface gets up and pats Little Man’s head, calling him a “good boy”

Little Man smiles at his mentor’s affection, and gives him the knife. Brandonface turns to Emily and tells her she’s lost. Emily accepts her fate and tells him and Little Man to “Go fuck yourselves” Brandonface then stabs the knife into Emily’s chest. Before they leave Emily to die, Little Man tells her “To be honest, you really were pretty”. After the killers leave, Spencer and Charles arrive, intending to check up on Emily. When they go up to Emily’s room, they find her bloodied in the hallway. They run up to her.

Charles tells Spencer to call 911, which she does. Charles tells Emily to stay with her. Emily shakes her head, and tells her brother that she loves him. She starts choking on her own blood as it seeps out of her mouth. Spencer and Charles cry helplessly as they watch Emily slowly die. Spencer tells Emily that she was always a sister to her, and she can’t die. Emily calls Spencer her “sister” and tells her to find love like she did with Sara. Emily takes her final breath. Her eyes roll back. It’s over. Emily Fields, final girl of PLS trilogy and sister of Charles Drake, is dead. Spencer and Charles are distraught, hugging Emily’s corpse. Fade to black.

Chapter 11
The next day, the entire Club mourns the loss of another Rosewood survivor. With Elliot, Sara, and Emily now dead, Spencer and Charles are the last remaining Rosewood survivors left. Andrew refers to them as family now, therefore, he says that their deaths would hurt him and the rest of the club. Charles and Spencer thanks him, referring to him as a brother. Scott says that Charles and Spencer are family to him, too. Lorraine finally declares Spencer as her best friend and a sister, which makes Spencer smile. Lorraine and Spencer have gotten close in the last few months as Lorraine became a member of the club.

Andrew and Daphne are driving on the road, having just left the Clubhouse. They’re very worried about how things are going to end for everyone. With Nick dead and the Rosewood Survivors mostly gone, things are not looking so good for the Clearwood Club. Andrew says that they’ll fight until the end. Daphne says that she hopes that they can make it. Andrew points out that they’re survivors and, therefore, they’ll make it. Just then, Daphne sees somebody in the middle of the road. Daphne points at the person, telling Andrew that there’s a little boy in the middle of the road. Andrew finally sees this. It’s Little Man. He swerves to miss him, loses control of the car, and crashes into a pole.

Andrew is injured as a result of the crash. But Daphne is okay. They both see Brandonface and Little Man heading towards the car. Daphne unbuckles Andrew’s seatbelt. She proceeds to pull Andrew away from his seat, hoping to escape through the passenger door. Before the two killers can reach the car, they hear another car approaching. The car notices the accident scene and heads for them. Brandonface and Little Man hide from the car. The car’s occupants get out. We find that’s an elderly couple that we know and love; Don and Margy Sutton (70s). They both approach the car. Don goes to the driver’s side while Margy goes to the passenger’s side. She opens the door. Daphne proceeds to pull Andrew out.

Brandonface appears behind Don. Daphne and Margy warn him about the killer. Don turns around. Brandonface goes to stab him. But Don shows that he’s a badass old man and slaps him down with his cane. Despite being younger and bigger, Brandonface is taken down by the old man. Brandonface exclaims, “Seriously?!” upon realizing the embarrassment of it all. Margy helps Daphne bring Andrew out of the car. Suddenly, Little Man appears behind Don. He stabs the old man in the back. Margy screams at the sight of seeing her husband being murdered by the child. Margy runs to her husband. Don Sutton dies in his wife’s arms. As Margy cries for her husband, Little Man grabs her hair, pulling her head back, and slices her throat. Margy Sutton is dead.

With nothing else to do, Daphne runs Andrew to the Suttons’ car. Brandonface, still trying recover from being caned down, tells Little Man to stop them. Little Man runs after them as Daphne places Andrew in the back of the car. Daphne turns to Little Man and kicks him to the ground. Daphne opens the car door and goes inside. Little Man gets back up and tries to open the car door. Daphne slams it open, smacking Little Man in the face with the door. The child falls to the ground again as Daphne closes the door. As both killers get back up, Daphne steps on the gas, driving the car away from them. The killers become angry that they’ve lost them. However, they regained new victims in the process, Don and Margy, whom they blame for their failure in killing Andrew and Daphne. Little Man says that he wants to make a phone call to feel better about the situation.

Lorraine is with Scott in her bedroom. Her phone rings. They realize that this is usually Brandonface. But upon answering, another voice speaks to her. It’s Little Man. Lorraine tells her son to stop the killings and to come home to his mother. Little Man tells her that it’s too late for that. He tells his mother that she’s going to pay for the pain that she has caused him. He claims that Brandonface is a better parent to him than Lorraine could ever be. Lorraine starts to cry and tells him how sorry she is and that she loves him. Little Man calls her a liar and says that she’s only saying that to make him stop. But Lorraine denies this claim. She tries to talk sense into her boy. But he hangs up on her.

At the hospital, Andrew has been admitted and being treated for his injuries. Clarence and Kathy have arrived. The doctor tells them that Andrew will be okay. Meanwhile, Daphne is talking to Sheriff Mallory about Brandonface and Little Man killing the Suttons. Daphne will not be charged with stealing the Suttons’ car as it was a way to escape for their lives. Clarence, Kathy, and Daphne have decided to stay at the hospital with Andrew.

NOTE: This is way to keep Andrew, Daphne, Clarence, and Kathy away from the house to not have so many characters at once at the final confrontation chapter.

Chapter 12
At the Clubhouse, we find Acting-President Scott Lane with Lorraine, Iris, Charlie, Charles, and Spencer. With Andrew at the hospital, Daphne and his parents with him, and Melissa hiding at a private hospital paid by her rich father, it is now just Scott, Lorraine, Iris, Charlie, Spencer, and Charles together. Scott tells them that tonight, they need to fight back in order to stop Brandonface and bring Little Man back to the light side. They all agree.

There is a knock at the main window of the club. Everyone turns to find Miguel. He looks all beaten up, which includes a badly bloody nose. Miguel tells them that the killer and that little boy attacked him, claiming that they broke his nose. He pleads for them to let him in. Scott goes to the door. But before he can open the door, Little Man appears from behind Miguel. He stabs Miguel multiple times in the back. Everyone screams over this. Miguel De La Cruz, former teacher of the Club, former lover of Lorraine, and the latest Clearwood Club member, is dead. As Miguel’s body slides off the window, Little Man drags the former deceased teacher away from the window. The Club now feels trapped.

The Club keeps a lookout at all the windows. Scott tells them to find the killer and Little Man. It takes a few minutes for anything to happen. Lorraine is the first to see Brandonface and Little Man coming towards the Clubhouse. Scott says that they must leave now. They all run out the door. They run to their respective vehicles. Scott and Lorraine run to Scott’s El Camino, Charlie and Iris run into their car, Charles and Spencer run to Charles’s car. Little Man attacks Iris. Charlie tries to stop him. But Little Man slashes his chest. Charlie is down. He turns to Iris and they struggle. Iris loses her balance during the struggle, falls backwards, and hits her head on the car. Her head cracks open as a result. Both Charlie and Iris are unconscious. Due to the amount of blood coming out of their bodies and the fact that they’re not responding, Little Man believes them to be dead.

Scott and Lorraine drive off. Charles and Spencer begin to drive off. However, Brandonface throws his knife into one of the back tires. This causes Charles to lose control of his car. The car speeds down a steep hill and the car crashes. Rather than waste his time checking on rather or not Charles and Spencer survived, he signals Little Man for him to come with him to their car. They jump into their car and chases Scott and Lorraine. They drive through the woods and out onto the main road. As the car chase proceeds, they ram into other cars or other cars crash as they try to avoid them. It’s an actual car chasing scene. After Scott’s El Camino speeds by a turn, a police car turns to chase them. But before the cop can get anywhere, Brandonface rams his car off the road. The cop’s car crashes into a ditch and the cop is knocked unconscious by the crash.

Scott and Lorraine pass a light turning red. Before Brandonface’s car can make it, the light turns red and the other cars drive across, blocking them from getting to their target. Little Man starts to freak out. But Brandonface guesses that they’re going to the Carter house. Scott and Lorraine make it to the Carter house. They jump out of the car and runs inside the house. Lorraine grabs the house phone and calls 911. Scott guesses that they’ll be coming to the house. Lorraine tells the 911 dispatcher about Brandonface and Little Man chasing them. Meanwhile, back at the woods, Spencer and Charles escape from their crashed car. They go up the hill and find the injured Charlie and Iris. Charles attends to Charlie and Spencer attends to Iris. Both regain consciousness. They ask the young Rodriguez couple if they’re okay, which they say that they are. They all believe that the killers are going to chase Scott and Lorraine to the Carter house and agree to go there. They get into the Rodriguez’s car, with Charles driving, and they drive off together.

Meanwhile, Sheriff Mallory and a Deputy arrive at the Carter house. However, they find Little Man appearing helpless. Mallory approaches him and asks if he’s okay. Scott and Lorraine, who sees them outside, tries to warn them away from him. But it’s too late. Brandonface kills the Deputy by stabbing him in the back. Mallory turns around and pulls out his gun. But Little Man stabs him in the leg. As Mallory falls to the ground, he drops his gun. Brandonface grabs the gun and points it at Mallory. Brandonface tells Mallory that he has failed as Sheriff. And with that, Brandonface shoots Mallory in the head. Jeffrey Mallory, Sheriff of Clearwood, is dead.

Brandonface and Little Man break their way into the Carter house. Lorraine and Scott are now alone with the killer and the boy. Lorraine asks Brandonface who he is. Brandonface removes his mask and reveals himself.

Chapter 13
Brandonface and Little Man have succeeded in killing Sheriff Mallory and his Deputy. They break their way into the Carter house. Lorraine and Scott are now alone with the killer and the boy. Lorraine asks Brandonface who he is. Brandonface removes his mask and reveals himself as -- MIGUEL DE LA CRUZ. This shocks Lorraine and Scott, who thought that they saw Miguel being killed by Little Man. Miguel tells them that he trained the boy to pretend to kill him. In fact, Miguel confesses to training Little Man on everything he’s done.

Lorraine asks him why they’re doing this. Miguel tells her that it’s because she abandoned Little Man. Miguel calls Lorraine a horrible mother. Lorraine actually admits that she is and has regretted everything. Scott asks what Miguel’s motive for doing all of this is for himself. Miguel tells them that because Lorraine not only abandoned Little Man, but that she didn’t tell him (Miguel) about his own son, therefore, she didn’t give him a chance to raise to their son, himself. This shocks both Lorraine and Scott. Lorraine apologizes and confesses that she wasn’t sure if he was truly the father. She always suspected that Miguel was the father but didn’t know for certain. Miguel hits her with, “That’s because you’re a fucking whore who couldn’t keep her damn legs closed.” Miguel points out the amount of men that she has slept with and how he has killed many of them, including her actual boyfriend, Keith Curtis. Lorraine cries upon hearing this. Miguel confesses to also killing Keith’s little brother, Nick. This confession upsets Scott, who saw Nick at a great friend and a brother.

Meanwhile, Charles, Spencer, Iris, and Charlie are driving through town. They see the wreckage that was left behind by the car chase scene between Scott & Lorraine and Miguel & Little Man in the previous chapter. They find the cop car that crashed into a ditch. They hope that they can make it before Brandonface kills Lorraine and Scott.. Back at the house, Lorraine tries to reason with Miguel and Little Man. But they continue to say how Lorraine is a whore and a horrible mother. Miguel claims that all the people who have died, that their deaths are all on her hands due to her actions. Scott berates Miguel for claiming this, saying that Miguel is the one who killed them. Little Man points his knife at Scott and tells him not to speak to his “Daddy” like that. Miguel smiles with pride at his son’s evilness like his own. Miguel turns to Lorraine and says, “That’s our boy, Lorraine. A cold-hearted killer. Just like us. Cold hearted like you and a killer like me.” Lorraine begins to cry over this statement.

Outside the house, Spencer, Charles, Iris, and Charlie arrive. They check on Mallory and the Deputy. They confirm that they’re both dead. They move over to the window and sees Miguel and Little Man talking to Lorraine and Scott. Miguel and Little Man says that Lorraine hurt so many people, including the killers, their victims, and herself by being a selfish whore. Miguel says that she must pay the price for her sins. Miguel says that they’ll kill Scott first then her. The killer raises their knives and go for Scott. Suddenly, Spencer, Charles, Iris, and Charlie burst in. The four attack and restrain Little Man. This distracts Miguel, who is then attacked by Scott. This causes Miguel to lose the gun. As they fight, Lorraine retrieves the gun. She watches as her current boyfriend and former lover fight for a moment. Then she raises the gun up in the air and fires it.

This stops the fight between them. Miguel throws Scott aside and faces Lorraine. He smiles and proceeds to taunt her. He demands for her to shoot him, saying that she doesn’t have the guts to kill him. Lorraine says with a cold-ice look on her face, “You don’t know me.” Lorraine pulls the trigger. BANG! Miguel is shot in the head. His body falls backwards and he does not get up. Miguel De La Cruz, the father of Little Man, former lover of Lorraine, former teacher of the club, and the main killer of the story, known as Brandonface, is dead.

Little Man escapes from the Club’s grip and runs over to his father’s body. He cries over the death of his father. He pulls out his knife and goes for his mother. Lorraine won’t point the gun at her own child. So she is now vulnerable to being stabbed. But Scott grabs the child and wrestles the knife out of the boy’s hand. Lorraine approaches Little Man and tells him how sorry she is for abandoning him. She tells him that she loves him and wants to make it up to him. Lorraine pleads with him to come back to the light. But Little Man right out refuses. Little Man tells his mother that it’s too late. She hurt him for the last time and now with her killing his father, there’s no chance of anything happening for them. Little Man declares that Miguel was the best parent that he ever had and that Lorraine would never been a mother to him. And with that, Little Man seals the doomed relationship between him and his mother. Lorraine is clearly hurt by this.

More police officers come in. They see the child with the angry look on his face and the blood on him. They realize that he’s involved in the killings. They take the child. Lorraine asks them to be gentle on him, which they are. Little Man gives his mother an evil look. There are no signs of forgiveness or redemption in him. The police take him out. Lorraine and Scott hug and hold each other. Lorraine cries over the loss of her son.

Chapter 14
In the aftermath of Miguel De La Cruz’s reveal as Brandonface and as Little Man’s father, Little Man has been put into a mental hospital. Lorraine has learned that she’s pregnant. She tells her parents, Scott, who is the father, and the Club about it. Lorraine informs them that she’s willing to give motherhood a try if Scott would help her. Scott vows to love and support both Lorraine and their child. In fact, Scott proposes to Lorraine, which Lorraine accepts.

In a time jump, we witness the birth of Melissa and the late Nick’s daughter, Bella Curtis-Howard. Although, Nick is not there with her, Melissa is not alone. She has Kathy, Lorraine, Iris, Daphne, and Spencer with her. In another time jump, we witness the birth of Lorraine and Scott’s twins. They name the boy Tyler. But when asked about the girl’s name, Lorraine stares at Spencer. She tells Spencer that it was unfair that her little sister, Nancy, was killed at a very young age. Lorraine believes that Nancy Hastings should have had a chance at life and that her memory should live on. With Spencer’s blessing, Lorraine and Scott’s daughter is named Nancy Spencer Lane. Lorraine asks Spencer to be her Godmother, which she accepts. In another time jump, we witness the birth of Iris and Charlie’s daughter, Ali Rodriguez.

In his hospital room, Little Man, now renamed Zero Carter (Patient Zero), sits on his bed. Bitter and angry. His father was killed and he’s been sent to a home that he doesn’t want to be at. Zero continues showing hate towards his own family, more specifically, his mother. He pulls out his father’s Brandonface mask. He puts it over his face. But the mask is too big for him. Zero removes it and says, “Someday, this mask will fit my face. And when that happens, I will get out of here and I will seek my revenge. This isn’t over!”

And with that -- The Prequel Trilogy Ends. The Carter Family and the Clearwood Club will return in The Honor Saga: Episode IV - The Screams of Patient Zero.
