Chad Meeks-Martin: So, let me get this straight. You're saying that you're the daughter of Billy Loomis and, what, that one of us is the killer?
Sam Carpenter: The killer said he knew my secret. He attacked Tara to lure me back here.
Chad Meeks-Martin: But then why immediately go and murder some douche nozzle that was stalking Liv?
Wes Hicks: Why does it have to be one of us? What about Deputy Dewey here? Maybe he's the killer.
[to Dewey]
Wes Hicks: No offense.
Dewey Riley: None taken, but what's my motive?
Wes Hicks: You got stabbed a billion times, got dumped by your famous wife, and crawled into a bottle. I think it's safe to say you're on the suspect list.
Dewey Riley: Well, maybe, you're the killer... 'cause that cut deep.
Amber Freeman: That douche nozzle is connected. I googled him, his Mom is Leslie Macher. Stu Macher's sister.
Liv McKenzie: Who's Stu Macher?
Dewey Riley: He's Billy Loomis's accomplice, a real looney tune.
Sam Carpenter: Okay. Okay. So, the first three attacks are all on people related to the original killers.
Mindy Meeks-Martin: Oh, my God! He's making a requel!
Sam Carpenter: A what?
Mindy Meeks-Martin: Or, uh, legacyquel. Fans are torn on the terminology.
Chad Meeks-Martin: Please speak English.
Mindy Meeks-Martin: Okay. Remember the Stab movie that came out last year?
Liv McKenzie: Oh, yeah! The one the Knives Out guy directed, right? I, actually, really liked that one.
Mindy Meeks-Martin: Of course, you did. You have terrible taste.
Liv McKenzie: I hate you.
Mindy Meeks-Martin: The point is the hardcore Stab fans hated it. You go on 4chan and Dreadit. All they're talking about is how Stab 8 pissed on their childhoods, how they crammed in social commentary just to make it elevated, how the main character's a Mary Sue.
Richie Kirsch: What's a Mary Sue?
Wes Hicks: You really don't want to know.
Amber Freeman: What's wrong with elevated horror? I mean, Jordan Peele fucking rules.
Mindy Meeks-Martin: Uh, obviously. But's that not what Stab is. Real Stab movies are meta slasher whodunits, full stop.
Sam Carpenter: Come on, it's just a movie.
Mindy Meeks-Martin: No, it's not. To some people, the original is their favorite thing in the world. The movie that made them love horror, that Mom or Dad showed them when they were 10 that bonded them together. And God help anyone who slightly fucks with that special memory, who makes a movie they think disrespects it. It sounds like our killer is writing his own version of Stab 8, but doing it as a requel.
Dewey Riley: Which is?
Mindy Meeks-Martin: See, you can't just reboot a franchise from scratch anymore, the fans won't stand for it. Black Christmas, Child's Play, Flatliners. That shit doesn't work. But, you just can't do a straight sequel, either. Uh, you gotta build something new, but not too new or the internet goes bug-fucking nuts. It's gotta be a part of an ongoing storyline, even if the story shouldn't have been ongoing in the first place. New main characters, yes, but supported by and related to... legacy characters. Not quite a reboot, not quite a sequel. Like the new Halloween, Saw, Terminator, Jurassic Park, Ghostbusters. Fuck, even Star Wars. It always, always goes back to the original!
Sam Carpenter: Are you telling me that I'm caught in the middle of fan-fucking-fiction?
Mindy Meeks-Martin: Not... just... in the middle, Sam. You're the star.
Liv McKenzie: So, not to put, like, too fine a point on it, but, according to requel rules... who's next?
Mindy Meeks-Martin: Going by the pattern, whoever it is has to be connected to someone that came before.
Dewey Riley: [as everyone looks shocked and confused] I'm starting to regret coming here.
Wes Hicks: Jesus, my Mom's a character in one of them.
Mindy Meeks-Martin: No one cares about the shitty inferior sequels, Wes. You're safe.
[to Chad]
Mindy Meeks-Martin: With Randy as our Uncle, though, you and I are probably screwed.
Chad Meeks-Martin: Wait, what?
Richie Kirsch: Or you're the killer and this whole, what, elaborate monologue is just to cover your tracks.
Mindy Meeks-Martin: [Chuckles] I think it's pretty clear who the killer is at this point.
Sam Carpenter: Who?
Mindy Meeks-Martin: You. It makes perfect requel sense
Sam Carpenter: The killer said he knew my secret. He attacked Tara to lure me back here.
Chad Meeks-Martin: But then why immediately go and murder some douche nozzle that was stalking Liv?
Wes Hicks: Why does it have to be one of us? What about Deputy Dewey here? Maybe he's the killer.

You go on 4chan and Dreadit
00:01:04.431 --> 00:01:05.001
all they're talking about is how Stab 8
00:01:06.998 --> 00:01:07.468
pissed on their childhoods
00:01:07.601 --> 00:01:09.999
How they crammed in social commentary just to elevate it
00:01:09.999 --> 00:01:11.405
How the main character's a Mary Sue
00:01:11.539 --> 00:01:13.993
What's a Mary Sue You really don't want to know
00:01:13.999 --> 00:01:15.209
What's wrong with elevated horror
00:01:15.342 --> 00:01:17.244
I mean Jordan Peele fucking rules
00:01:17.378 --> 00:01:19.547
Uh obviously but that's not Stab
00:01:19.001 --> 00:01:24.351
Real Stab movies are meta slasher whodunits full stop
00:01:24.485 --> 00:01:26.999
Come on It's just a movie No it's not
00:01:26.999 --> 00:01:30.224
To some people the original is their favorite thing in the world
00:01:30.357 --> 00:01:32.693
The movie that made them love horror
00:01:32.999 --> 00:01:36.001
That Mom or Dad showed them when they were ten that bonded them together
00:01:36.163 --> 00:01:39.633
And God help anyone who slightly fucks with that special memory
00:01:39.767 --> 00:01:41.001
Who makes a movie they think disrespects it
00:01:41.001 --> 00:01:46.206
It sounds like our killer is writing his own version of Stab 8
00:01:46.034 --> 00:01:48.842
but doing it as a requel
00:01:48.976 --> 00:01:50.005
Which is
00:01:51.111 --> 00:01:53.999
See you can't just reboot a franchise from scratch anymore
00:01:53.999 --> 00:01:55.249
The fans won't stand for it
00:01:55.001 --> 00:01:57.001
Black Christmas Child's Play Flatliners
00:01:58.001 --> 00:01:59.999
That shit doesn't work
00:01:59.486 --> 00:02:01.889
But you can't just do a straight sequel either
00:02:02.006 --> 00:02:03.999
You got to build something new
00:02:03.999 --> 00:02:06.001
But not too new or the Internet goes bug fucking nuts
00:02:06.001 --> 00:02:08.999
It got to be part of an ongoing story line
00:02:08.429 --> 00:02:11.001
even if the story shouldn't have been ongoing in the first place
00:02:11.999 --> 00:02:13.999
New main characters yes
00:02:13.005 --> 00:02:17.001
but supported by and related to legacy characters
00:02:17.999 --> 00:02:19.239
Not quite a reboot not quite a sequel
00:02:19.999 --> 00:02:20.001
Like the new Halloween Saw
00:02:20.999 --> 00:02:23.001
Terminator Jurassic Park Ghostbusters
00:02:23.999 --> 00:02:24.999
fuck even Star Wars
00:02:24.578 --> 00:02:28.999
It always always goes back to the original
00:02:28.001 --> 00:02:33.999
Are you telling me that I'm caught in the middle of fan fucking fiction
00:02:33.001 --> 00:02:36.001
