𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
I wasn't hiding or anything, ma'am.
I was at my parents.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Ma'am? Ouch.
You realize we don't like that till we're, like, 50, right?
𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
Sorry. I don't really know how to talk to, u know... cops.
Lady cops.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Can u tell us why you dropped out of the Delts?
You obviously pledged for a reason.
You were the only one to drop.
Couldn't handle the pressure?
𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
Look, Derek had this coming, but I didn't do it.
I was playing Deathwatch PvP.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
I'm sorry?
𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
It's, uh, player versus player with graphical interface.
You know, we had five guys with picture lock on each other.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
What do u mean,
Derek had it coming to him?"
𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
He's a complete sadist.
I mean, I know initiation is supposed to be about jackass, old-school bonding stuff, but Derek would literally beat me with a paddle.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚|𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Listening to a voicemail of fraternity brother
You should have run when u had a chance.
I'm gonna teach you what it means to be a brother.
You're gonna beg for freaking mercy, bro.
Like Walton Bell Tower never saw.
I am gonna make u weep.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Who's Walton?
𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
It's a what.
The Walton Bell Tower on campus.
It's where most of the fun went down.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Were all the hazing rituals done there?
𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
Pretty much.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Actual crime scene?
Derek wasn't attacked where he was found.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Tech triangulated the call.
Came from a quadrant of campus midway between the party Derek left and that tower.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Why would u leave a party alone in the middle of the night and go halfway across campus?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
And head to a hazing tower.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
He made it sound like he was meeting u there.
𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
Up there? In the middle of the night? No way.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
It sounded like he thought he was.
Maybe someone used your name to lure him there?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Maybe said you'd reconsidered.
That u were coming back to the house.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
And meeting him at Walton Tower.
LATER ON A THE WALTON TOWER.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
I rest my case.
Still no closer to understanding guys.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Looks like we found the actual scene of attack.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Is that a saddle shoe?
I didn't know those came back into style.
I'll call our location in.
Walking away
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Looking around in the dark until was startled by Lisa
Looking to make sure that Tionne wasn't around
Lisa? Why are u here?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
I'm so sorry.
I followed u.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
What are u doing?
I thought we were going to meet tonight.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Uh, tonight can't happen.
I'm sorry. I-I really wanted to get away from all of this with u... but, uh, things have changed.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Oh.
No. I understand.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
No, I don't think u do.
I need to tell u something.
The killer that you're after-- she might be me.
BACK AT LISA AND TUPAC PLACE
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
In a minute we'll know if the blood from the tower matches what Lisa tracked in.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Hey?
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Yeah?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Hey, um, I'm so sorry about this weekend.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
That doesn't matter right now.
You didn't ask for this.
Lisa , u did not murder Derek.
Even when you're not yourself, u do the right thing.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
I kill people, too, and u know it.
I wish that I could tell u that normally, this wasn't my life, but...
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
I'm not going anywhere.
Trust me.
Okay. Look
Derek was on his way across campus.
We think that he was sent there by someone at the party.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
One of his fraternity brothers?
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Or at least one of the pledges.
Derek was brutal during hazings.
Tionne is running all their profiles.
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Good, because one of them is your perp.
Most likely.
The blood samples don't match.
Lisa didn't do it.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Okay, but I had someone's blood on me.
Whose was it?
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
On the computer doing research
𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫
What's that?
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
I'm scanning through old cases from last year.
I know that I've seen this strange check mark somewhere before.
A-ha.
𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫
Oh, my gosh, u were right.
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
Another body found on campus almost a year ago.
Looks like we're no longer talking about one isolated homicide.
𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫
You got all that from one check mark?
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
Obviously the check mark is a calling card the killer is leaving behind, targeting college students.
No. Hang on.
She wasn't even officially a victim.
She was a cadaver from the campus anatomy lab.
Campus security found the cadaver
Lying on the steps of the old science block with a fresh check mark carved into her embalmed flesh""
They wrote it off as a sick prank.
𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫
That's amazing that u remembered that photo.
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
So the cadaver was practice, perhaps.
𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫
For a real murder?
A year later.
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
You never know what triggers these guys to take the big step.
I need u to double-check the ETA on those lab results.
𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫
Cool.
Where are u going?
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
Our killer had to have access to the lab where the cadaver was from.
I'm going to have them pull the student roster for that semester, and then I'm gonna check out the actual crime scene.
