JOANIE: Sue, let me do the thinking, okay? What is this..?
MALE NEWSMAN: ... authorities in and around Shudderville are warning all residents tonight that Tawny Ka Ching’s death is almost certainly the work of the Halloween Killer. Everyone, especially teenage girls, are advised not to be alone, or even in small groups of two, or three, or they could meet a terrible end…
JOANIE: *counts on fingers silently, pointing away -- Anna -- for “one”, Sue for “two” then herself for “three”. Looks alarmed and then turns off the TV*
ANNA: You’re still here?
JOANIE: Of course.
SUE: And it’s not because the Halloween Killer’s on the loose. We just like you.
JOANIE: *smiling to Sue, through gritted teeth* Yeah, we’re friends....
ANNA: You guys are the best.

Why don’t we turn on the TV?
JOANIE: No! Need. No need to watch TV. We have three great conversationalists here.
ANNA: … a Hershey bar, Baby Ruth, Butterfinger, Butterfinger, finger… AHH! There’s a finger in there!
SUE: Yeah, right, a finger. I’m sure there’s a -- FINGER! AHH!
JOANIE: A finger! AHHH!
*Toss finger out*
ANNA: So you still think this is just imaginary, this Halloween Killer?
SUE: He’s not just a killer… he gave us… the finger.
JOANIE: Okay. Alright. It could be a little more serious than I thought.
ANNA: A little more serious? He’s killed one person, now he’s dismembering people. What body part’s gonna show up next in a candy bowl.
SUE: Well it won’t be Joanie’s butt, there’s no candy bowl big enough to hold that.
ANNA: That’s enough! That’s enough! So what are we supposed to do?
JOANIE: How am I supposed to

This mop looks death warmed-over. Oops… No offense, Gramps. It’s been fun.
ANNA: No way Sue. You are not leaving by yourself.
JOANIE: You’ll never make it. He’ll grab you, torture you, and kill you.
SUE: Hey --- it hurts to be beautiful. But I am not going to the concert looking like this.
ANNA: And we’re not letting you leave!
SUE: Is that your final answer?
JOANIE: Uh yeah.
SUE: Okay. You’re probably right… It’s him!
ANNA: Where..?
JOANIE: Sue, no!
ANNA: Come back! Run, Sue --- run!
JOANIE: Please get away, please..!
ANNA: Well --- “No scream is… a good scream.”
JOANIE: Yeah. Maybe she did it… Maybe she got away…
*Phone rings*
ANNA: Hello..?
SUE: I made it, guys… I’m in my car… I’m gonna be o--
MALE VOICE: Hey Joanie --- Anna..? If you decide to make a getaway, don’t do it in Sue’s car. It doesn’t even have a CD player…
ANNA: Listen to me.
JOANIE: Yeah?
ANNA: We’re going to be fine.
JOANIE: Fine…
ANNA: As long as we stay close together.
JOANIE: Close together…
ANNA: Right…
*Joanie yells*
JOANIE: Ahhh!
ANNA: Joanie?
JOANIE: Yeah?
ANNA: Not that close together.
JOANIE: Right.
JOANIE: Anna?
ANNA: Yeah?
JOANIE: Can I be honest with you?
ANNA: I
Sophia: oh no, no, no, they’ve come to kill me oh no I don’t want to die yet! I’m going to hide under the bed!
Haleigh: Okay baby girl! Ashley: That’s only an hour away. Ill get the girls ready while you’re in the shower.
Anne: It’s all right. Everyone feels that way. Margot’s so good. She’s sweet and bright and beautiful, and I’m not.
“I’m Anna and these are my friends Paisley and Posa. You are in Clear Lake, Iowa “ Anna informs him
“You have to face it; she's gone. I know it’s hard, but please come with me” Caroline said.
I would not like to answer. I could pretend that I did not hear that, and keep walking. But Sally ran towards me. I was not ready yet! Don’t talk to me!
[Blanche looks around] I want to see him. [Susan, Blanche, and Elizabeth smile at each
Carol: (Supporting Grace’s prior statement) Besides, you said it would be alright for us to wait out the storm as long as we were good, and we haven’t done anything wrong? (Both girls looking rather confused with the way they are being treated. They had both been so accustomed to cordelia’s friendly side, and have only been witnesses to her alter ego.)
“Oh, I see…” answered Alex then she paused. “Look, Evan, something’s come up and I really need to see her so could you just tell me where I can find her?”
“ Why didn't you tell me this earlier i'll kill that girl.” she said, as she got out of her bed and headed downstairs. She was going straight for dana faster than ever and yelling “DANA” as loud as she could.
“Great,” I told him happy to know Anna was in there somewhere, but unhappy not knowing what kind of trouble she’d already gotten herself into.
“Leave her be. That’s what they have to do for the bit of food and warmth they get. I wouldn’t mind being at their mission house myself.” The above mentioned part of scene 9 also highlights how Joan’s aloofness from the harsh reality of people has caused her to do more harm than good.
Christina: (Fighting tears) Ok! (Pause) You know what? (Pause) I’m not going to have some conversation and have to sit through coffee afterwards. (Pause) Just get to it.
Amy: Don’t get too excited now, dear. You don’t want to get your hopes crushed if something bad happens, right?
“She already had,” Mary laughed. “She called the one girl who disrespected you and Anna. I believe that one girl had only called those who follow her. The ones, who had agreed to attend, although they knew it was going to be a Snooze Fest, were good girls and should be placed on your short list from now on.”
