00:00:18,246 --> 00:00:23,089
<i>In late May of 1980, May 23rd
to be exact,</i> The Shining <i>opened,</i>

2
00:00:23,356 --> 00:00:25,594
<i>and I wanted to see it
as soon as possible.</i>

3
00:00:37,852 --> 00:00:41,035
I <i>was obsessed with
Stephen King's seminal book.</i>

4
00:00:41,059 --> 00:00:44,866
<i>And it remains one of the key novels
that made me wanna be a writer.</i>

5
00:00:47,772 --> 00:00:51,355
<i>In fact, as soon as I was done
reading</i> The Shining <i>for</i> a <i>third time,</i>

6
00:00:51,379 --> 00:00:55,822
<i>I began writing my own novel, which
would ultimately become</i> Less Than Zero.

7
00:00:58,527 --> 00:01:02,043
<i>This would be the first time I drove to
Westwood to see a movie without the gang,</i>

8
00:01:02,067 --> 00:01:05,273
<i>and I felt incredibly adult
as I raced across Mulholland</i>

9
00:01:05,473 --> 00:01:09,650
<i>on that Saturday morning in my
father's black Mercedes 450 SL,</i>

10
00:01:10,518 --> 00:01:14,869
<i>a two-door tank that was hardly
the sporty vehicle I longed for</i>

11
00:01:14,893 --> 00:01:16,395
<i>as a teenager.</i>

12
00:01:27,718 --> 00:01:30,132
I <i>remember, and I don't know why,</i>

13
00:01:30,156 --> 00:01:33,296
<i>that</i> I <i>was wearing</i> a <i>fashionable
new Ralph Lauren shirt,</i>

14
00:01:33,564 --> 00:01:35,534
<i>brown with</i> a <i>touch of white-gray stripes</i>

15
00:01:35,634 --> 00:01:38,339
<i>and Calvin Klein jeans
with Gucci loafers.</i>

16
00:01:43,049 --> 00:01:44,552
One ticket, please.

17
00:01:45,888 --> 00:01:47,023
Three dollars.

18
00:02:02,822 --> 00:02:03,924
Thank you.

19
00:02:10,304 --> 00:02:14,111
<i>I sat in reverent silence and
stared at the 70-millimeter screen.</i>

20
00:02:15,013 --> 00:02:19,188
<i>Writing this now, I can't believe I was
left to my own devices for 20 minutes,</i>

21
00:02:19,388 --> 00:02:21,068
<i>just idly sitting there,</i>

22
00:02:21,092 --> 00:02:23,941
<i>thinking about things, about
my friends Thom and Susan,</i>

23
00:02:23,965 --> 00:02:26,469
<i>waiting without wanting
something to distract me</i>

24
00:02:26,603 --> 00:02:28,740
<i>like smartphones or social media.</i>

25
00:02:31,513 --> 00:02:36,423
<i>The lights in the theater slowly
darken, and that's when I saw the boy.</i>

26
00:02:36,856 --> 00:02:39,729
<i>This is the reason why I've
never forgotten seeing</i> The Shining

27
00:02:39,929 --> 00:02:44,305
<i>on May 24th, 1980, at the
theater in Westwood at 10:00 a.m.</i>

28
00:02:45,006 --> 00:02:48,514
I <i>was off to the side
near the aisle when</i> I <i>saw him.</i>

29
00:02:54,892 --> 00:02:58,911
<i>A guy so stunningly handsome I
thought at first he was</i> a <i>movie star</i>

30
00:02:58,935 --> 00:03:01,038
<i>or a model from</i> GQ <i>magazine.</i>

31
00:03:02,708 --> 00:03:03,944
<i>He was tall.</i>

32
00:03:04,077 --> 00:03:06,750
<i>He was undoubtedly tan everywhere.</i>

33
00:03:08,588 --> 00:03:13,129
<i>This boy aroused something
primal in me that I'd never felt before.</i>

34
00:03:15,099 --> 00:03:18,105
<i>I needed to be his friend.
I had to own him.</i>

35
00:03:23,083 --> 00:03:26,557
<i>The Warner Brothers logo headed
toward us as the opening credits began</i>

36
00:03:26,690 --> 00:03:30,965
<i>over aerial shots of the family's
Volkswagen heading toward the Overlook.</i>

37
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,561
<i>He had to be older than me.
A UCLA student, maybe.</i>

38
00:03:58,654 --> 00:04:05,300
I <i>watched, mesmerized, as this boy,
this god, disappeared from my sight line.</i>

39
00:04:05,869 --> 00:04:08,439
<i>He noticed me staring and glanced away,</i>

40
00:04:08,774 --> 00:04:11,055
<i>but not before a lingering gaze
took me in,</i>

41
00:04:11,079 --> 00:04:14,151
<i>and I fantasized that he
was interested in me too.</i>

42
00:04:22,802 --> 00:04:25,149
<i>After the movie was over,
I was underwhelmed.</i>

43
00:04:25,173 --> 00:04:27,411
<i>It was nothing like the book.
I felt cheated.</i>

44
00:04:27,545 --> 00:04:31,519
<i>I walked into the lobby hoping to
find the boy, but he wasn't anywhere.</i>

45
00:04:33,623 --> 00:04:36,864
<i>I waited outside the theater,
but he wasn't there either.</i>

46
00:04:37,398 --> 00:04:40,904
<i>What I didn't know then is that I
would actually meet this boy again,</i>

47
00:04:41,004 --> 00:04:43,185
<i>and his name was Robert Mallory,</i>

48
00:04:43,209 --> 00:04:46,817
<i>and that his arrival at my high
school and into my life would coincide</i>

49
00:04:46,983 --> 00:04:50,199
<i>with</i> a <i>season of horror and
murder that would destroy us all.</i>

50
00:04:50,223 --> 00:04:53,272
"Redrum" over and over? That's
gonna haunt me for the rest of my life.

51
00:04:53,296 --> 00:04:55,534
Like, "redrum"? But...

52
00:05:07,090 --> 00:05:11,576
<i>It has occurred to me when talking
about what happened to us in 1981</i>

53
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:17,110
<i>that one thing Kids
today have it fucking easy.</i>

54
00:05:17,845 --> 00:05:20,994
<i>Sure, being a teenager is hard
now because you have to deal</i>

55
00:05:21,018 --> 00:05:23,857
<i>with puberty and sexuality
and online bullying,</i>

56
00:05:23,990 --> 00:05:28,442
<i>but our generation had it tougher
because we had to deal with serial killers.</i>

57
00:05:28,466 --> 00:05:29,802
Shadow.

58
00:05:33,610 --> 00:05:34,679
Shadow.

59
00:05:39,756 --> 00:05:41,325
Shadow.

60
00:05:41,626 --> 00:05:44,465
<i>The early '80s was the
golden era for serial killers.</i>

61
00:05:44,933 --> 00:05:47,246
<i>All the legends were on hunting sprees.</i>

62
00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:49,676
<i>The Night Stalker, the Hillside Strangler.</i>

63
00:05:49,909 --> 00:05:51,421
Shadow.

64
00:05:51,445 --> 00:05:53,325
<i>As</i> I <i>prepared to enter senior year...</i>

65
00:05:53,349 --> 00:05:55,229
Shadow.

66
00:05:55,253 --> 00:05:57,334
<i>I had no idea that my friends
and I would be hunted too</i>

67
00:05:57,358 --> 00:06:00,731
<i>by perhaps the most
sadistic serial killer of them all.</i>

68
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:19,600
Hello.

69
00:06:24,612 --> 00:06:25,612
Hello.

70
00:06:28,452 --> 00:06:29,755
Hello.

71
00:06:53,202 --> 00:06:54,906
<i>This is our story.</i>

72
00:06:55,006 --> 00:06:57,087
<i>Some of us survived high school.</i>

73
00:06:57,111 --> 00:06:58,790
<i>Some of us died.</i>

74
00:06:58,814 --> 00:07:01,118
<i>But none of us made it out alive.</i>

75
00:07:42,935 --> 00:07:45,373
<i>Darling.</i>

76
00:07:54,759 --> 00:07:55,759
Hello.

77
00:08:03,375 --> 00:08:05,079
Who is this?

78
00:10:39,054 --> 00:10:42,604
<i>I remember it was a Sunday
afternoon before Labor Day,</i>

79
00:10:42,628 --> 00:10:46,035
<i>and our senior year was about
to begin on that Tuesday morning</i>

80
00:10:46,234 --> 00:10:47,939
<i>of September 8th, 1981.</i>

81
00:10:48,306 --> 00:10:50,443
<i>And I remember
that the Westridge Stables</i>

82
00:10:50,544 --> 00:10:52,958
<i>were located on</i> a <i>bluff above Malibu</i>

83
00:10:52,982 --> 00:10:56,354
<i>where my girlfriend, Deborah Schaffer,
was boarding her new horse, Spirit.</i>

84
00:10:58,025 --> 00:11:00,964
<i>I was driving solo following
Susan Reynolds and Thom Wright</i>

85
00:11:01,131 --> 00:11:02,600
<i>along Pacific Coast Highway.</i>

86
00:11:09,314 --> 00:11:11,719
<i>Everything sped up
when you got your car.</i>

87
00:11:13,590 --> 00:11:16,061
<i>You are now autonomous
in ways you hadn't been.</i>

88
00:11:20,202 --> 00:11:21,705
<i>You had become an adult.</i>

89
00:11:25,914 --> 00:11:28,452
<i>This encouraged our parents
to work longer hours</i>

90
00:11:28,553 --> 00:11:30,500
<i>or travel with less restrictions,</i>

91
00:11:30,524 --> 00:11:33,471
<i>leaving all of us behind
in beautiful empty houses</i>

92
00:11:33,495 --> 00:11:36,545
<i>in Bel-Air and Beverly Hills
or Benedict Canyon,</i>

93
00:11:36,569 --> 00:11:38,516
<i>and that was okay with my friends and I.</i>

94
00:11:38,540 --> 00:11:41,277
<i>We were the family.
We raised each other.</i>

95
00:11:43,550 --> 00:11:46,498
<i>We would usually start our day by
meeting for lunch at Hamburger Hamlet,</i>

96
00:11:46,522 --> 00:11:48,960
<i>where we'd crowd into the
red booths for patty melts</i>

97
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,209
<i>after buying our tickets for
the next movie at The Bruin.</i>

98
00:11:52,233 --> 00:11:54,414
<i>Dinner was usually at the food court</i>

99
00:11:54,438 --> 00:11:57,310
<i>with breaks at the arcade playing</i>
Space Invaders <i>and</i> PAC-MAN.

100
00:11:59,247 --> 00:12:02,989
<i>Or look for new music at Tower
Records, leafing through the paperbacks</i>

101
00:12:03,188 --> 00:12:06,361
<i>at any number of the large
bookstores that dotted the streets.</i>

102
00:12:07,029 --> 00:12:09,076
<i>There were five or six in 1981.</i>

103
00:12:09,100 --> 00:12:10,136
That's the one.

104
00:12:10,302 --> 00:12:12,038
<i>There are none now.</i>

105
00:12:19,454 --> 00:12:22,971
I <i>kept behind Thom's car up
the winding road of the stables</i>

106
00:12:22,995 --> 00:12:26,669
<i>where we parked next to
Deborah's gleaming brand-new BMW.</i>

107
00:12:35,086 --> 00:12:38,301
<i>We located Debbie
trotting Spirit by his reins.</i>

108
00:12:38,325 --> 00:12:39,805
Rock it, Debbie.

109
00:12:39,829 --> 00:12:41,007
<i>She was wearing her riding attire.</i>

110
00:12:41,031 --> 00:12:42,031
There you are.

111
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,354
<i>I was aware of Spirit
being yet another example</i>

112
00:12:52,453 --> 00:12:54,466
<i>of Debbie's carelessness and privilege.</i>

113
00:12:54,490 --> 00:12:57,907
<i>The cost of maintaining and
housing the animal was astronomical,</i>

114
00:12:57,931 --> 00:12:59,869
<i>but</i> I <i>don't think she even cared.</i>

115
00:13:00,971 --> 00:13:03,142
<i>In</i> a <i>way, Debbie was an experiment.</i>

116
00:13:03,342 --> 00:13:05,790
<i>I wasn't determined to have
a girlfriend my senior year,</i>

117
00:13:05,814 --> 00:13:07,919
<i>except if it had been Susan Reynolds,</i>

118
00:13:08,118 --> 00:13:12,493
<i>and yet Debbie had become
somewhat inexplicably just that.</i>

119
00:13:29,327 --> 00:13:31,475
<i>We were at a party
at Anthony Matthews' house,</i>

120
00:13:31,499 --> 00:13:34,848
<i>and she just started making out
with me on a chaise lit by the pool.</i>

121
00:13:34,872 --> 00:13:38,723
<i>I was stoned on a Quaalude. She
did a bump of coke. It was midnight.</i>

122
00:13:38,747 --> 00:13:42,153
- Put it in. I'm so wet.
- What?

123
00:13:42,253 --> 00:13:45,794
<i>And</i> I <i>was at</i> a <i>point where I
still tried to be attracted to girls.</i>

124
00:13:46,061 --> 00:13:49,511
- There's people around.
- I want it. I want you, Bret.

125
00:13:49,535 --> 00:13:51,772
<i>I surprised myself and went with it.</i>

126
00:13:53,342 --> 00:13:55,422
<i>Debbie always broke the rules.</i>

127
00:13:55,446 --> 00:13:58,886
<i>By senior year, her hair was a
shade of platinum inspired by Blondie.</i>

128
00:13:59,053 --> 00:14:02,770
<i>If you were in 11th or 12th grade,
makeup was minimally allowed,</i>

129
00:14:02,794 --> 00:14:05,400
<i>but because Debbie was so rich,
she got away with murder</i>

130
00:14:05,533 --> 00:14:07,046
<i>and wore her lipstick hot pink</i>

131
00:14:07,070 --> 00:14:09,440
<i>or blood red, always defiant.</i>

132
00:14:17,256 --> 00:14:21,407
Look, Debbie, I'm you.

133
00:14:21,431 --> 00:14:23,546
You guys, cut it out.
You're gonna spook the horses.

134
00:14:23,570 --> 00:14:25,750
- Susan, please, get off his back.
- - Okay.

135
00:14:25,774 --> 00:14:28,914
This is a $1 million horse from
Arabia, and you're gonna spook him

136
00:14:29,147 --> 00:14:31,307
because you can't get off
Thom's back for five minutes.

137
00:14:31,384 --> 00:14:32,630
You just scared all of them...

138
00:14:32,654 --> 00:14:34,333
<i>Thom Wright and Susan Reynolds</i>

139
00:14:34,357 --> 00:14:36,261
<i>had been dating
since they were sophomores</i>

140
00:14:36,361 --> 00:14:38,274
<i>and were now the most popular people,</i>

141
00:14:38,298 --> 00:14:41,338
<i>not only in our class, but
in the overall student body.</i>

142
00:14:41,739 --> 00:14:43,376
<i>It was obvious why.</i>

143
00:14:43,475 --> 00:14:45,422
<i>Thom and Susan
were casually beautiful,</i>

144
00:14:45,446 --> 00:14:48,553
<i>all-American, and they both
came from wealthy families.</i>

145
00:14:49,053 --> 00:14:50,800
<i>For about two years, they were in love</i>

146
00:14:50,824 --> 00:14:54,264
<i>until that fall of 1981,
when one of them wasn't.</i>

147
00:14:55,399 --> 00:14:57,538
<i>Thom was always the ideal
of teen boy handsome,</i>

148
00:14:57,704 --> 00:15:01,077
<i>and what was so alluring about
him was that he didn't seem to care.</i>

149
00:15:01,244 --> 00:15:04,986
<i>He had an intriguing blankness
that was attractive and soothing.</i>

150
00:15:05,152 --> 00:15:07,032
<i>He was the opposite of Susan,</i>

151
00:15:07,056 --> 00:15:10,162
<i>school class president,
effortlessly</i> a <i>straight-A student.</i>

152
00:15:11,666 --> 00:15:14,915
<i>She kind of knew</i> I <i>was secretly
in love with her,</i>

153
00:15:14,939 --> 00:15:17,077
<i>and I knew everything about her.</i>

154
00:15:17,578 --> 00:15:20,325
<i>When she got her period,
the problem with her mother,</i>

155
00:15:20,349 --> 00:15:24,090
<i>every imaginary slight and deprivation
she thought she was enduring...</i>

156
00:15:24,323 --> 00:15:27,864
- I love you.
- <i>her crushes on classmates before Thom.</i>

157
00:15:34,043 --> 00:15:38,252
<i>She was to me
the most beautiful girl ever,</i>

158
00:15:39,287 --> 00:15:43,797
<i>and to this very day, the person I think
I've loved the most in my entire life.</i>

159
00:15:43,930 --> 00:15:45,900
Have you heard from your parents?

160
00:15:47,002 --> 00:15:51,078
This morning, still in France,
headed to Venice next week.

161
00:15:51,679 --> 00:15:53,650
They're staying in Europe indefinitely.

162
00:15:54,183 --> 00:15:56,503
My mom said that she still
thinks she wants to divorce him.

163
00:15:56,655 --> 00:16:00,305
My dad said that the trip has been
good, and they weren't coming home

164
00:16:00,329 --> 00:16:03,378
until their marriage was
on solid ground again.

165
00:16:03,402 --> 00:16:05,172
I hope it works out for them.

166
00:16:05,674 --> 00:16:07,745
Sucks having divorced parents.

167
00:16:08,145 --> 00:16:09,716
I miss my dad a lot.

168
00:16:10,315 --> 00:16:12,864
My God, it's my dream, all that freedom.

169
00:16:12,888 --> 00:16:15,292
Who's cooking your food?
You don't cook.

170
00:16:25,479 --> 00:16:26,725
<i>Rosa makes all my meals.</i>

171
00:16:26,749 --> 00:16:28,152
<i>Gracias.</i>

172
00:16:28,786 --> 00:16:31,826
<i>I just write all night after she
goes home and do whatever I want.</i>

173
00:16:38,540 --> 00:16:40,620
Are you coming
to Debbie's house tonight?

174
00:16:40,644 --> 00:16:42,280
It's the last party of the summer.

175
00:16:42,514 --> 00:16:45,462
Labor Day always makes me blue.
It's the end of something.

176
00:16:45,486 --> 00:16:48,869
But this year is the
beginning of our senior year.

177
00:16:48,893 --> 00:16:52,677
We're coming. Although, God, Debbie's
dad makes me super uncomfortable.

178
00:16:52,701 --> 00:16:55,239
- So goddamn gay.
- Thom!

179
00:16:55,372 --> 00:16:57,544
Sorry, he is. Last time I was there,

180
00:16:57,744 --> 00:17:01,160
he asked me if I wanted to take a
Jacuzzi with him in his bathroom,

181
00:17:01,184 --> 00:17:02,854
not the one by the pool.

182
00:17:03,388 --> 00:17:05,393
Pretended I got food poisoning and left.

183
00:17:05,527 --> 00:17:07,707
Yeah, I get gay vibes from him too.

184
00:17:07,731 --> 00:17:10,436
I don't think Debbie's mom
knows, if you could believe it.

185
00:17:10,670 --> 00:17:14,712
She likes the house, the trips,
going to the Oscars every year.

186
00:17:14,845 --> 00:17:17,760
How many does he have again? Oscars.

187
00:17:17,784 --> 00:17:18,729
Two.

188
00:17:18,753 --> 00:17:20,465
You know that book I'm writing?

189
00:17:20,489 --> 00:17:22,595
I want him to buy it
and let me write the movie.

190
00:17:22,727 --> 00:17:25,509
God, I hate coming here every weekend
just to watch her ride this dumb horse.

191
00:17:25,533 --> 00:17:30,643
- Why do we do this to ourselves?
- Because we are nice people.

192
00:17:31,110 --> 00:17:33,448
And this year,
we're gonna rule the school.

193
00:17:34,952 --> 00:17:36,722
- Don't we already?
- Help.

194
00:17:36,889 --> 00:17:38,492
There's no helping you.

195
00:18:29,060 --> 00:18:30,429
I don't understand.

196
00:18:30,897 --> 00:18:33,368
I just think we need to cool it for a while.

197
00:18:33,536 --> 00:18:35,506
It's maybe gotten out of hand.

198
00:18:37,711 --> 00:18:38,846
I agree.

199
00:18:40,884 --> 00:18:42,854
Just remember, we're good friends.

200
00:18:44,658 --> 00:18:45,927
Always will be.

201
00:19:41,170 --> 00:19:43,475
So, what was that about with Ryan?

202
00:19:45,747 --> 00:19:47,225
Nothing.

203
00:19:47,249 --> 00:19:49,429
We were just talking about
how excited we were to graduate

204
00:19:49,453 --> 00:19:51,702
and get the hell out of Los Angeles,

205
00:19:51,726 --> 00:19:53,630
finally start our lives.

206
00:19:53,829 --> 00:19:57,771
For sure, I'm going to school on
the East Coast, not even a question.

207
00:20:04,016 --> 00:20:05,620
My God.

208
00:20:05,853 --> 00:20:08,100
Senior year hasn't even started,
and I'm already exhausted.

209
00:20:08,124 --> 00:20:10,663
- It's gonna take so much planning.
- Like what?

210
00:20:10,830 --> 00:20:12,810
Well, homecoming is in October,

211
00:20:12,834 --> 00:20:15,381
and I have some rad ideas
for the class float.

212
00:20:15,405 --> 00:20:19,089
And then of course, Susan and Thom will
be crowned homecoming king and queen.

213
00:20:19,113 --> 00:20:23,021
I don't wanna be a homecoming
queen and wear some weird tiara.

214
00:20:24,725 --> 00:20:27,205
Susan, I'll throw you a party
at the Beverly Hills Hotel,

215
00:20:27,229 --> 00:20:29,276
and then we're doing an after-party thing

216
00:20:29,300 --> 00:20:31,572
on Dominic Thompson's
father's yacht, okay?

217
00:20:31,705 --> 00:20:33,117
How much coke have you done?

218
00:20:33,141 --> 00:20:34,286
A lot.

219
00:20:34,310 --> 00:20:35,647
- Do you want some?
- Duh.

220
00:20:42,961 --> 00:20:45,366
And I just booked Tommy Tutone

221
00:20:45,566 --> 00:20:48,080
for a private party I'm throwing
at the Blue Bayou at Disneyland.

222
00:20:48,104 --> 00:20:50,810
You know, like a cool grad night thing?

223
00:20:52,079 --> 00:20:53,650
We've all worked so hard.

224
00:20:53,849 --> 00:20:55,630
We deserve a nice time.

225
00:20:55,654 --> 00:20:57,222
We deserve nice things.

226
00:20:58,158 --> 00:20:59,637
Blue Bayou, the restaurant

227
00:20:59,661 --> 00:21:01,841
inside the Pirates of the Caribbean ride?

228
00:21:01,865 --> 00:21:03,068
Yeah.

229
00:21:03,736 --> 00:21:06,074
That's awesome.

230
00:21:14,156 --> 00:21:15,793
Four vodka sodas, please.

231
00:21:20,336 --> 00:21:23,184
Don't forget to invite
the new guy to Disney.

232
00:21:23,208 --> 00:21:24,477
What?

233
00:21:24,611 --> 00:21:26,180
There's a new guy
coming in on Tuesday.

234
00:21:26,515 --> 00:21:28,160
A new addition to our senior class.

235
00:21:28,184 --> 00:21:31,190
That's strange. You never
get a new kid senior year.

236
00:21:31,592 --> 00:21:34,698
- What's his name?
- Robert something.

237
00:21:35,299 --> 00:21:36,735
Robert Mallory.

238
00:21:37,937 --> 00:21:39,274
How do you know this?

239
00:21:39,574 --> 00:21:41,688
Well, I was having a meeting
with Principal Croft

240
00:21:41,712 --> 00:21:45,194
about my student body presidential
duties this year, and he told me.

241
00:21:45,218 --> 00:21:48,826
He lives in Century City with his
aunt or stepmother or something.

242
00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:51,932
- Well, that's weird.
- What's weird about it?

243
00:21:52,032 --> 00:21:53,645
If he lives in Century City,

244
00:21:53,669 --> 00:21:56,150
he would have been eligible
to attend Beverly Hills High.

245
00:21:56,174 --> 00:21:59,781
Why opt for our school? Why
drive all the way to our school?

246
00:22:00,148 --> 00:22:02,218
Well, he better be cute.

247
00:22:05,693 --> 00:22:06,895
Like you.

248
00:22:08,031 --> 00:22:10,268
Meet me in my bedroom in ten?

249
00:22:11,171 --> 00:22:12,640
I'm so horny.

250
00:22:18,218 --> 00:22:19,897
What did you mean when you said

251
00:22:19,921 --> 00:22:21,701
you didn't want to be
homecoming king and queen?

252
00:22:21,725 --> 00:22:24,040
- God, Thom, it's so corny.
- Yeah, but, Susan, honey,

253
00:22:24,064 --> 00:22:26,735
this is what we've been
waiting for for four fucking years.

254
00:22:26,835 --> 00:22:29,073
This is the coronation.
Everybody wants this.

255
00:22:32,212 --> 00:22:35,385
Okay. For you, I'll think about it.

256
00:22:40,863 --> 00:22:42,333
<i>That night in September</i>

257
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,472
<i>was one of the last nights
where there was no fear.</i>

258
00:23:13,394 --> 00:23:18,071
You have to watch <i>The Godfather,</i>
Chinatown, and <i>The Story of O</i>.

259
00:23:18,506 --> 00:23:21,277
- You ever heard of <i>The Story of O</i>?
- - I have...

260
00:23:21,645 --> 00:23:23,014
Bret.

261
00:23:23,649 --> 00:23:27,132
- Hi, Mr. Schaffer.
- Call me Terry, buddy.

262
00:23:27,156 --> 00:23:29,971
Sit down. There's something
I wanted to talk to you about.

263
00:23:29,995 --> 00:23:32,968
You guys go off, watch your
movies, tell me the details.

264
00:23:33,134 --> 00:23:34,638
I wanna know your favorite.

265
00:23:34,905 --> 00:23:36,073
Okay.

266
00:23:44,558 --> 00:23:49,668
So... Debbie tells me you're a
writer, or you want to be one?

267
00:23:50,903 --> 00:23:53,417
Yes. Yeah, I'm-I'm writing a novel.

268
00:23:53,441 --> 00:23:54,645
Amazing.

269
00:23:55,980 --> 00:23:58,953
Maybe you and I should go talk
about that at lunch or something.

270
00:23:59,086 --> 00:24:01,558
I'm always looking for new young voices.

271
00:24:01,758 --> 00:24:02,861
Our business needs that.

272
00:24:03,061 --> 00:24:04,831
The movies need that.

273
00:24:07,336 --> 00:24:09,139
I've always had my eye on you, Bret.

274
00:24:12,079 --> 00:24:13,214
Steven!

275
00:24:14,116 --> 00:24:16,999
Steven, what the...
What in the fuck are you doing?

276
00:24:17,023 --> 00:24:19,470
Debbie asked me
to take pictures of her guests.

277
00:24:19,494 --> 00:24:21,832
She wants to make a scrapbook.

278
00:24:22,701 --> 00:24:24,136
You know Debbie.

279
00:24:29,179 --> 00:24:32,453
Bret and I are going to go
to lunch, talk about his future.

280
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,302
Will you put it down on the
schedule, okay? Le Dome.

281
00:24:35,326 --> 00:24:36,562
Sure thing.

282
00:24:36,828 --> 00:24:38,933
Yep, yep.

283
00:24:40,001 --> 00:24:41,805
Thanks, Mr. Schaffer...

284
00:24:45,579 --> 00:24:46,882
Terry.

285
00:25:25,392 --> 00:25:27,129
Where is my husband?

286
00:25:29,868 --> 00:25:31,170
Hi, Mrs. Schaffer.

287
00:25:32,006 --> 00:25:33,676
I asked you a question.

288
00:25:34,443 --> 00:25:37,049
Where is my husband?
Have you seen him?

289
00:25:37,182 --> 00:25:39,453
Yes, he's-he's down by the pool.

290
00:25:40,523 --> 00:25:42,392
Who was my husband with?

291
00:25:46,233 --> 00:25:48,304
- I don't know.
- You don't know?

292
00:25:49,774 --> 00:25:53,949
Was he in the bushes,
sucking some young guy's dick?

293
00:25:57,924 --> 00:25:59,595
Or did he proposition you?

294
00:26:00,328 --> 00:26:03,501
Liz, have you been hitting
the wine coolers again?

295
00:26:05,940 --> 00:26:08,879
You seem very tired. Let's put you to bed.

296
00:26:09,848 --> 00:26:11,317
You can go, Bret.

297
00:26:11,985 --> 00:26:13,087
Okay.

298
00:26:13,989 --> 00:26:15,434
Good night, Mrs. Schaffer.

299
00:26:15,458 --> 00:26:18,799
Wait. Why? You're not
staying for the movie?

300
00:26:20,101 --> 00:26:21,639
I've already seen it.

301
00:26:21,905 --> 00:26:24,511
Don't you walk away from me,
you little asshole.

302
00:26:24,811 --> 00:26:27,192
Where are you going?
You gonna meet him upstairs?

303
00:26:27,216 --> 00:26:29,129
I've known you
since you were ten years old.

304
00:26:29,153 --> 00:26:31,466
- Don't you dare walk away from me!
- Liz, enough.

305
00:26:31,490 --> 00:26:34,832
I'm putting you to bed now.
You can take your night-night pills.

306
00:27:05,458 --> 00:27:06,828
Hello?

307
00:27:27,436 --> 00:27:28,738
Your mom is a psycho.

308
00:27:30,041 --> 00:27:31,978
Ignore her. I do.

309
00:27:34,217 --> 00:27:35,887
Are you staying for the movie?

310
00:27:36,354 --> 00:27:39,302
No, I've already seen <i>Continental Divide.</i>

311
00:27:39,326 --> 00:27:46,173
I wanna get home, do some
writing. Unless you had another idea.

312
00:27:49,815 --> 00:27:51,918
I thought you'd never ask.

313
00:28:03,575 --> 00:28:05,478
Wow. Babe.

314
00:28:07,583 --> 00:28:09,319
You got muscular this summer.

315
00:28:10,021 --> 00:28:13,460
You know, push-ups, swimming.

316
00:28:15,265 --> 00:28:17,102
I get a full striptease.

317
00:28:24,517 --> 00:28:26,063
<i>Debbie always came fast.</i>

318
00:28:26,087 --> 00:28:28,091
<i>Within minutes,
she could thrash out an orgasm.</i>

319
00:28:28,291 --> 00:28:29,804
Don't tease me.

320
00:28:29,828 --> 00:28:31,139
<i>It took barely anything
to make her come,</i>

321
00:28:31,163 --> 00:28:32,399
<i>and this was happening now.</i>

322
00:28:34,771 --> 00:28:37,242
<i>You have to remember, being
gender fluid was not something</i>

323
00:28:37,409 --> 00:28:39,089
<i>that was allowed back then.</i>

324
00:28:39,113 --> 00:28:41,450
<i>You had to be two people,
which was fucking exhausting,</i>

325
00:28:41,551 --> 00:28:43,464
<i>and you had to compartmentalize.</i>

326
00:28:43,488 --> 00:28:45,926
<i>My relationship with Debbie
was my public persona,</i>

327
00:28:46,060 --> 00:28:50,268
<i>and my relationship with Matt
Kellner was my secret, forbidden one.</i>

328
00:28:58,117 --> 00:29:01,902
Did you hear there's a new kid
starting school? Isn't that weird?

329
00:29:01,926 --> 00:29:05,265
Why is that weird? Who cares?

330
00:29:05,566 --> 00:29:09,072
It's just weird if someone
enrolls in senior year.

331
00:29:13,615 --> 00:29:14,684
Whatever.

332
00:29:19,761 --> 00:29:23,134
That's all you ever say, about anything.

333
00:29:23,770 --> 00:29:25,171
"Whatever."

334
00:29:26,541 --> 00:29:28,011
You smoke too much pot, Matt.

335
00:29:28,277 --> 00:29:31,217
You're officially the class
stoner. Did you know that?

336
00:29:33,154 --> 00:29:34,624
Whatever.

337
00:29:37,229 --> 00:29:39,133
Why don't you socialize, Mattie?

338
00:29:40,034 --> 00:29:42,540
Why didn't you come
to Debbie's party tonight?

339
00:29:43,140 --> 00:29:47,149
Well, I told you.
I just wanted to, you know,

340
00:29:47,583 --> 00:29:50,589
hang here and listen to the new
Elvis Costello album.

341
00:29:51,390 --> 00:29:55,165
And get high, Matt. So tedious.

342
00:29:55,699 --> 00:29:58,471
You're so smart,
but you don't let anybody in.

343
00:30:00,074 --> 00:30:02,813
Well, we're friends, right?

344
00:30:04,651 --> 00:30:07,723
Only when I drive over and
we fool around in the shadows.

345
00:30:09,326 --> 00:30:12,265
You have lost potential, Matt.

346
00:30:13,201 --> 00:30:15,204
I'm worried about you.

347
00:30:20,683 --> 00:30:24,456
I'm the most real person in that school.

348
00:30:26,060 --> 00:30:27,429
And you know it.

349
00:30:36,313 --> 00:30:38,084
I think we should stop this.

350
00:30:40,689 --> 00:30:42,292
Stop what?

351
00:30:43,829 --> 00:30:45,164
This.

352
00:30:47,302 --> 00:30:49,172
You don't need to say that.

353
00:30:52,747 --> 00:30:55,519
Well, I wouldn't want you
to think that I don't care.

354
00:30:56,755 --> 00:30:58,725
No, I don't think anything.

355
00:31:03,034 --> 00:31:04,469
I don't think anything.

356
00:31:13,855 --> 00:31:15,825
What happened to the aquarium?

357
00:31:17,195 --> 00:31:18,532
I don't know.

358
00:31:23,742 --> 00:31:26,080
You don't know why
your aquarium is empty?

359
00:31:26,447 --> 00:31:30,421
No, I came back the other day
and noticed all the fish were gone.

360
00:31:33,260 --> 00:31:35,498
- What are you looking for?
- My bong.

361
00:31:36,534 --> 00:31:38,848
And here it is.

362
00:31:38,872 --> 00:31:40,241
All right.

363
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:44,550
What happened to the water?

364
00:31:44,917 --> 00:31:47,823
I don't know. My mom
usually takes care of it.

365
00:31:51,765 --> 00:31:53,569
Do you think maybe the cat got them?

366
00:31:53,702 --> 00:31:57,677
You think Alex ate all my fish?

367
00:31:58,044 --> 00:31:59,446
I don't know.

368
00:31:59,647 --> 00:32:01,584
Maybe we'll never know.

369
00:32:02,186 --> 00:32:03,454
Why?

370
00:32:05,526 --> 00:32:08,665
Well, the cat's missing too.

371
00:32:19,955 --> 00:32:21,667
Not this time. Yeah. What about
last week? What about last week?

372
00:32:21,691 --> 00:32:23,270
Last week... Last week,
I wasn't feeling okay.

373
00:32:23,294 --> 00:32:25,465
Okay. It's always an excuse, dude.

374
00:32:26,801 --> 00:32:28,638
- Okay.
- Hey, check it out.

375
00:33:15,532 --> 00:33:16,668
<i>Gracias.</i>

376
00:33:23,582 --> 00:33:26,287
<i>It's gonna be</i> a <i>warm one for
the next week, I'm betting two.</i>

377
00:33:26,386 --> 00:33:28,433
<i>You'll see here we have a high of 82,</i>

378
00:33:28,457 --> 00:33:32,441
<i>and the Santa Anas are at least
letting us cool down to 71 at night.</i>

379
00:33:32,465 --> 00:33:34,303
<i>Now, back to Jessica
for the morning report.</i>

380
00:33:34,537 --> 00:33:36,818
<i>Some disturbing news
this morning in the Southland.</i>

381
00:33:36,842 --> 00:33:40,014
<i>The body of</i> a <i>teenage girl
was found yesterday morning</i>

382
00:33:40,314 --> 00:33:42,018
<i>on a tennis court in Woodland Hills.</i>

383
00:33:42,485 --> 00:33:45,258
<i>The body and identity of the young
woman have not been released,</i>

384
00:33:45,424 --> 00:33:49,911
<i>and police refused to comment
pending an investigation into the homicide.</i>

385
00:33:49,935 --> 00:33:51,981
<i>Viewers will remember that,
last summer,</i>

386
00:33:52,005 --> 00:33:54,553
<i>the body of a missing girl,
Katherine Latchford,</i>

387
00:33:54,577 --> 00:33:56,515
<i>was found in a dumpster in Redlands.</i>

388
00:33:56,915 --> 00:34:01,534
<i>That case remains unsolved, and
police decline to comment at this time</i>

389
00:34:01,558 --> 00:34:05,264
<i>whether the abductions
and murders are related.</i>

390
00:34:54,096 --> 00:34:55,298
What's wrong?

391
00:34:55,966 --> 00:34:58,079
Did you see the mascot statue,
what someone did to it?

392
00:34:58,103 --> 00:35:00,141
Yes, I talked to the principal about it.

393
00:35:00,341 --> 00:35:02,822
It's just some stupid prank by
a kid at Harvard or something.

394
00:35:02,846 --> 00:35:03,825
Klonopin?

395
00:35:03,849 --> 00:35:04,984
Sure.

396
00:35:12,498 --> 00:35:14,078
- Babe, what'd you get?
- Croissant and ham.

397
00:35:14,102 --> 00:35:16,508
I just wanna smell it, honestly.

398
00:35:16,875 --> 00:35:18,320
You can have one.

399
00:35:18,344 --> 00:35:20,291
Why does my stupid mother
always pack me pâté for lunch?

400
00:35:20,315 --> 00:35:21,861
I just call it "pad Thai."

401
00:35:21,885 --> 00:35:24,223
She knows I'm dieting.
She's trying to sabotage me.

402
00:35:25,191 --> 00:35:27,328
Pâté is not on the Beverly Hills Diet.

403
00:35:27,529 --> 00:35:28,665
- Want it?
- I do.

404
00:35:28,798 --> 00:35:30,368
- Sure.
- Thom, you don't want that.

405
00:35:30,636 --> 00:35:32,214
- You look great.
- - We can't always get what we want.

406
00:35:32,238 --> 00:35:36,790
I am not eating any more fat
for six weeks straight.

407
00:35:36,814 --> 00:35:39,186
It just gets more round
if you continue to eat fat.

408
00:35:39,352 --> 00:35:40,599
You're gonna pass out.

409
00:35:40,623 --> 00:35:43,671
To try and more angularize
the side profile.

410
00:35:43,695 --> 00:35:45,298
Of your boobs?

411
00:35:45,464 --> 00:35:46,601
Can I smell a chip?

412
00:35:46,801 --> 00:35:48,104
You can take one.

413
00:35:48,538 --> 00:35:49,750
I just wanna smell it.

414
00:35:49,774 --> 00:35:51,109
She thinks that this works.

415
00:35:58,558 --> 00:36:00,238
Have you noticed
that ever since I cut fat,

416
00:36:00,394 --> 00:36:02,408
my tits from the side are more angular?

417
00:36:02,432 --> 00:36:03,702
- Look.
- Yes.

418
00:36:04,169 --> 00:36:07,108
<i>You should know
I smelled him before</i> I <i>saw him.</i>

419
00:36:07,643 --> 00:36:09,480
<i>It was cedar and sandalwood,</i>

420
00:36:10,148 --> 00:36:12,653
<i>as if he had just walked
through a forest of citrus.</i>

421
00:36:13,387 --> 00:36:15,692
Did you get a designer capsule?

422
00:36:18,498 --> 00:36:23,407
- Hi. You must be Robert Mallory.
- You must be Susan.

423
00:36:25,044 --> 00:36:27,784
- Principal Croft showed me your picture.
- The one on his desk...

424
00:36:27,983 --> 00:36:29,663
From the yearbook.

425
00:36:29,687 --> 00:36:30,999
I was just in Principal Croft's office.

426
00:36:31,023 --> 00:36:32,536
He told me I should come say hi.

427
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:33,862
So, hi.

428
00:36:33,995 --> 00:36:35,742
<i>He wore black leather pants</i>

429
00:36:35,766 --> 00:36:37,537
<i>like</i> a <i>second skin with his school blazer.</i>

430
00:36:37,970 --> 00:36:41,578
<i>I was rendered speechless. I
couldn't believe it. It was him.</i>

431
00:36:41,778 --> 00:36:45,720
<i>The magical, mystical boy I saw
at</i> The Shining <i>a year ago.</i>

432
00:36:47,422 --> 00:36:49,426
Hi. Bret.

433
00:36:50,428 --> 00:36:51,831
Nice to meet you, Bret.

434
00:36:54,937 --> 00:36:56,340
- You wanna join us?
- I'd love to.

435
00:36:56,574 --> 00:36:57,743
Come on.

436
00:36:59,580 --> 00:37:03,163
So, Robert, where do you come from?

437
00:37:03,187 --> 00:37:05,392
- So, I'm-I'm from Chicago originally.
- Okay.

438
00:37:05,659 --> 00:37:07,338
<i>Robert laid out his background for us</i>

439
00:37:07,362 --> 00:37:09,710
<i>as if it were a job interview
he needed to pass.</i>

440
00:37:09,734 --> 00:37:12,840
<i>The last time he'd been in LA for
any sustained length of time was</i>

441
00:37:13,007 --> 00:37:16,824
<i>ten months ago when he came out for
the holidays and stayed with his aunt.</i>

442
00:37:16,848 --> 00:37:18,661
Wait. So, why are you living
with your aunt now?

443
00:37:18,685 --> 00:37:20,431
Okay. It's a funny story,

444
00:37:20,455 --> 00:37:22,670
but I got kicked out of my
previous school that I was at.

445
00:37:22,694 --> 00:37:24,974
<i>Funny and smooth.</i>

446
00:37:24,998 --> 00:37:28,371
<i>His parents were divorced. His
mother had then died in</i> a <i>tragic accident.</i>

447
00:37:28,605 --> 00:37:30,985
<i>His father wanted to send him
to a military academy,</i>

448
00:37:31,009 --> 00:37:35,495
<i>but his aunt intervened, suggesting Robert
relocate to Los Angeles and live with her,</i>

449
00:37:35,519 --> 00:37:38,635
<i>and she would enroll him somewhere
for his last year of high school.</i>

450
00:37:38,659 --> 00:37:43,535
Have we met before? At The
Whiskey or The Odyssey or something?

451
00:37:44,503 --> 00:37:46,049
I'm not much of a club guy.

452
00:37:46,073 --> 00:37:47,274
I never forget a face.

453
00:37:49,045 --> 00:37:51,384
I don't really know anyone
in LA. I don't go out much.

454
00:37:51,918 --> 00:37:53,688
Did you not bring lunch?

455
00:37:58,865 --> 00:38:01,670
I forgot. I guess first day jitters, right?

456
00:38:02,706 --> 00:38:04,744
Do you... Do you want half?

457
00:38:04,910 --> 00:38:06,991
<i>On one level, Robert was
intriguing enough to make me forget</i>

458
00:38:07,015 --> 00:38:08,962
<i>- about the griffin streaked with gore.</i>
- Sure, thank you.

459
00:38:08,986 --> 00:38:11,567
<i>He was one of the most
charming people I'd ever met.</i>

460
00:38:11,591 --> 00:38:14,898
<i>The other thing I gleaned was
that he was a complete and utter liar.</i>

461
00:38:15,064 --> 00:38:16,911
I know where I saw you.

462
00:38:16,935 --> 00:38:18,375
Last summer, did you see <i>The Shining</i>

463
00:38:18,671 --> 00:38:21,544
at the Village Theatre
when it first came out?

464
00:38:22,580 --> 00:38:23,815
No.

465
00:38:25,018 --> 00:38:27,422
Are you sure?
I'm positive I saw you there.

466
00:38:27,623 --> 00:38:29,527
- Really?
- Positive.

467
00:38:32,666 --> 00:38:34,102
Really? You're positive?

468
00:38:35,104 --> 00:38:36,617
Why would you remember me there?

469
00:38:36,641 --> 00:38:38,044
Did I say something to you or...

470
00:38:38,177 --> 00:38:42,251
No, no, you just left an impression.

471
00:38:46,193 --> 00:38:47,663
I haven't seen that movie.

472
00:38:47,796 --> 00:38:49,767
Well, I'm almost positive I saw you.

473
00:38:50,903 --> 00:38:53,741
In the theater. On a Saturday.

474
00:38:56,379 --> 00:38:57,683
It wasn't me.

475
00:38:57,883 --> 00:39:00,087
Weird.

476
00:39:00,922 --> 00:39:02,091
Very weird.

477
00:39:04,196 --> 00:39:07,570
- That was wacky.
- Saved by the bell.

478
00:39:07,803 --> 00:39:10,240
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you all.

479
00:39:12,980 --> 00:39:14,049
Bye, babe.

480
00:39:14,382 --> 00:39:16,754
Have you guys heard of the water ride?

481
00:39:23,936 --> 00:39:25,304
It was nice to meet you, Bret.

482
00:39:26,106 --> 00:39:27,208
You too.

483
00:39:36,126 --> 00:39:39,709
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon!

484
00:39:39,733 --> 00:39:41,446
Let's start the first assembly of the year

485
00:39:41,470 --> 00:39:45,220
by welcoming Senior President
Susan Reynolds.

486
00:39:45,244 --> 00:39:46,278
Susan.

487
00:39:52,693 --> 00:39:54,973
Stop, stop. Thank you.

488
00:39:54,997 --> 00:39:56,109
Whoo!

489
00:39:56,133 --> 00:39:59,048
Hello, Griffins!

490
00:39:59,072 --> 00:40:01,042
I'm so proud of this girl.

491
00:40:01,744 --> 00:40:05,484
And hello to my fellow senior class.

492
00:40:05,752 --> 00:40:09,335
First of all, I just want
to say thank you to everyone

493
00:40:09,359 --> 00:40:12,566
who voted for me as your
student body class president.

494
00:40:13,167 --> 00:40:16,206
We have a very exciting year
ahead of us.

495
00:40:16,306 --> 00:40:19,255
Don't forget our Thanksgiving fundraiser

496
00:40:19,279 --> 00:40:22,595
following the last football
game before the holiday.

497
00:40:22,619 --> 00:40:24,522
Let's support our varsity team.

498
00:41:01,731 --> 00:41:02,866
Yeah. I know.

499
00:41:04,971 --> 00:41:07,543
<i>It became clear to me
after our second introduction</i>

500
00:41:07,809 --> 00:41:10,180
<i>that Robert Mallory was like</i> a <i>virus.</i>

501
00:41:10,749 --> 00:41:13,387
A <i>new kind of insidious, invading agent</i>

502
00:41:13,688 --> 00:41:20,067
<i>who was here to destroy the very cellular
structure of my friends, my school and me.</i>

503
00:41:22,338 --> 00:41:28,283
<i>He was up to something. And it was up
to me to find out exactly what that was.</i>

504
00:43:52,471 --> 00:43:53,473
Shit.

505
00:44:16,319 --> 00:44:17,589
Shit.

506
00:44:38,898 --> 00:44:40,200
Fuck you.

507
00:44:46,012 --> 00:44:47,012
Fuck you!

508
00:44:55,598 --> 00:44:59,673
Fuck you! Fuck you!
Fuck you! Fuck you!

509
00:46:34,730 --> 00:46:36,266
Hey.

510
00:46:37,034 --> 00:46:38,270
Hey.

511
00:46:40,007 --> 00:46:42,746
That was you, right? Following me?

512
00:46:43,814 --> 00:46:45,585
I wasn't following you.

513
00:46:46,019 --> 00:46:49,459
I was heading to the Galleria, and I
happened to be behind you, I guess.

514
00:46:49,827 --> 00:46:51,305
You were in the Porsche?

515
00:46:51,329 --> 00:46:53,768
Yeah, that was me.
I was just fucking with you.

516
00:46:58,376 --> 00:47:00,023
I don't like being followed.

517
00:47:00,047 --> 00:47:01,793
Yeah? You don't like being followed?

518
00:47:01,817 --> 00:47:04,355
Yeah. Freaks me out.

519
00:47:05,592 --> 00:47:07,538
What are you doing here
at the mall today?

520
00:47:07,562 --> 00:47:09,700
Shopping for some school clothes.

521
00:47:10,935 --> 00:47:13,349
What brings you to the Galleria
on this Tuesday afternoon?

522
00:47:13,373 --> 00:47:15,244
There's a lot of hot girls.

523
00:47:16,580 --> 00:47:19,553
I was gonna see a movie,
but I realized I've seen them all.

524
00:47:20,354 --> 00:47:23,169
Which one? <i>The Shining</i>?

525
00:47:23,193 --> 00:47:25,598
You sure you weren't there?
I know I saw you.

526
00:47:25,698 --> 00:47:28,412
Dude, you gotta let it go. It wasn't me.

527
00:47:28,436 --> 00:47:32,111
Pretty sure I saw you, dude.

528
00:47:33,447 --> 00:47:35,150
I haven't seen that movie.

529
00:47:49,813 --> 00:47:52,351
What were you talking
to Matt Kellner about today?

530
00:47:52,484 --> 00:47:55,658
Yeah? You saw that? You guys friends?

531
00:47:56,727 --> 00:47:58,130
Is that innuendo?

532
00:47:58,731 --> 00:48:00,477
He seems like a very confused guy.

533
00:48:00,501 --> 00:48:03,006
You know, the kind of guy
who could use a friend.

534
00:48:03,641 --> 00:48:08,226
What? He's just very laid-back,
very easygoing. He's a pothead.

535
00:48:08,250 --> 00:48:09,654
Interesting.

536
00:48:09,786 --> 00:48:11,857
Is Thom Susan Reynolds's boyfriend?

537
00:48:13,761 --> 00:48:15,598
Yeah.

538
00:48:15,765 --> 00:48:17,444
How long have they been seeing each
other? How long have they been dating?

539
00:48:17,468 --> 00:48:19,438
About two years.

540
00:48:19,906 --> 00:48:23,647
- So, it's serious.
- Very. Why are you asking me this?

541
00:48:24,181 --> 00:48:27,298
Because she's hot. She's quite
the little honey, don't you think?

542
00:48:27,322 --> 00:48:28,859
<i>At that point, I couldn't breathe.</i>

543
00:48:29,125 --> 00:48:31,095
<i>At that point,
I needed to get away from him.</i>

544
00:48:31,329 --> 00:48:32,899
Hey, Bret.

545
00:48:33,634 --> 00:48:34,804
Yeah?

546
00:48:34,903 --> 00:48:36,807
I've just figured something out about you.

547
00:48:40,247 --> 00:48:41,918
What have you figured out about me?

548
00:48:43,319 --> 00:48:46,359
When you talk to me, you're
really talking to yourself, dude.

549
00:48:50,635 --> 00:48:52,815
<i>After the upsetting car chase</i>

550
00:48:52,839 --> 00:48:56,046
<i>with Robert Mallory on that sweltering
and fateful September afternoon,</i>

551
00:48:56,279 --> 00:48:58,860
<i>I remember I went home
and popped on the local news.</i>

552
00:48:58,884 --> 00:49:00,484
<i>Investigation of</i> a <i>Valley Village girl</i>

553
00:49:00,555 --> 00:49:02,233
<i>found brutally murdered earlier today.</i>

554
00:49:02,257 --> 00:49:05,230
<i>What I learned that day
made my blood run cold.</i>

555
00:49:06,099 --> 00:49:08,379
<i>The city had become paralyzed with fear.</i>

556
00:49:08,403 --> 00:49:11,286
<i>Might link to the murders of
at least two other young women.</i>

557
00:49:11,310 --> 00:49:14,225
<i>Questioned about the
suspect's identity, investigators...</i>

558
00:49:14,249 --> 00:49:17,631
<i>Margo Tyler had been missing
since June of that year</i>

559
00:49:17,655 --> 00:49:20,762
<i>and her body was found
behind a local Tower Records.</i>

560
00:49:21,329 --> 00:49:24,936
<i>She was his third victim.
There would be countless more.</i>

561
00:49:27,776 --> 00:49:30,256
<i>The serial killer hunting young people</i>

562
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:34,355
<i>was nicknamed by investigating
officers as The Trawler.</i>

563
00:49:34,656 --> 00:49:37,461
<i>Suddenly, the epidemic
of missing pets made sense.</i>

564
00:49:37,562 --> 00:49:39,866
<i>He would use them in a satanic way.</i>

565
00:49:39,966 --> 00:49:44,275
<i>He trawled for victims effortlessly,
like a fisherman casting</i> a <i>wide net.</i>

566
00:49:45,044 --> 00:49:46,689
<i>Thus, the catchy nickname.</i>

567
00:49:46,713 --> 00:49:48,794
<i>We'll continue to bring you
more as it comes in.</i>

568
00:49:48,818 --> 00:49:51,355
<i>Thanks, Jeff. At the moment,
things continue...</i>

569
00:50:15,505 --> 00:50:19,689
<i>My God. No.</i>

570
00:50:19,713 --> 00:50:20,747
Hello?

571
00:50:21,951 --> 00:50:24,556
<i>God.</i>

572
00:50:29,031 --> 00:50:30,033
Hello?

573
00:50:31,502 --> 00:50:32,704
<i>Help me.</i>

574
00:50:33,941 --> 00:50:36,990
<i>Help me. Please, help me.</i>

575
00:50:37,014 --> 00:50:38,216
Hello?

576
00:50:38,383 --> 00:50:40,263
<i>Please, help me.</i>

00:50:40,287 --> 00:50:44,094
