1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: Hey Leeth the listeners take Torres here. Stay tuned for

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: the next episode of Lethal Lit. But first, here's a

3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: quick word from our sponsor. M Hey, Ellenators, we are

4
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 1: in need of some real talk. As you know, Hall

5
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: of Falls has seen its share of tragedies, and frankly,

6
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: I'm a little over all the bad energy and I'm

7
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,279
Speaker 1: not the only one that's right. Ellenator's Max here, and

8
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna want to listen up because we've been working

9
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: on something amazing, something top secret, and you get to

10
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: hear about it first. That's right. The reopening of the

11
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 1: Montague Hotel brought way too many negative vibes of it,

12
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: but we thought could it just be us? So we

13
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: brought in a local expert from Spiritual Haven to confirm

14
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: our hunt. Denise, you did some of your most powerful

15
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: um spells m H. Scrying rituals. Crying rituals on the

16
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 1: Monty and what did they tell you? It's haunted and

17
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: driving this town crazy. If the mayor was smart, he

18
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: to order it burnt down and then salt the earth. Well,

19
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: the mayor does not have the power to do that. Okay,

20
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,559
Speaker 1: before we get the kerosine out, we have some figure

21
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: better plans right, Max, Yes, Yes, and with a hundred

22
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: percent less Arson, we have teamed up with the Montague

23
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: to throw the biggest positivity party this town has ever seen.

24
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: We are going to dispel all that darkness with light

25
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: like these glow necklaces, free for all attendees. That's right,

26
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: and we're announcing it right here, right now, this Saturday

27
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: night at the Monty. We are going to take back

28
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: the Falls. Take back the Falls who come ready to

29
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: play and dressed to sleigh because we're going to have

30
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: three DJs photo booth to throw back to the Montese origins,

31
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,559
Speaker 1: free tarot readings courtesy of Denise, and so much more.

32
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: But it's also a fully immersive collective energy cleansing experience

33
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: and a fundraiser for mental health. It's gonna be lit,

34
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: there will be singing, there will be dancing, and most importantly,

35
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: there will be grieving. Think of it as a week

36
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: for our dark and sinister past, but a fun week

37
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: with prizes and an exorcism. Come laugh and cry with me,

38
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: your host, Ella high Smith, Max, and a who's who

39
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: of Hollow Falls Ians this Saturday, Let's take back the Fall.

40
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: While my friends were busy not talking to me. They

41
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: were also busy putting their time to good use helping

42
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: the town. I had myself convinced that I was the

43
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: only one doing something important in light of the supposed

44
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: music box killer, but now it felt like I was

45
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: treading water while they were making a difference. I hadn't

46
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: felt this alone since the first day I set foot

47
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: in the talent office. I'm tig Torres and this is

48
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: lethal lit. Three weeks had passed since the murder of

49
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: Stephanie Reid, the latest victim of hollow Fall's newest serial killer,

50
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: and I was beginning to question whether the music box

51
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: killer was just a figment of my imagination. With no

52
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: new deaths and no new evidence, was that just chasing

53
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: a ghost was the matching m o at both crime

54
00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: scenes strychnine poisoning and a hollow Fall centennial music box

55
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: just a coincidence played up by the media and murder

56
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: tourism industry to focus more morbid attention on our already

57
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: hurting town. I've been thinking about Dr Jekyll and Mr

58
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 1: Hyde again, how we all have two sides to our personalities.

59
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: There's the part we want the world to see, and

60
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: there's the part we keep to ourselves. As I grow up,

61
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 1: I find that I'm really two people. There's the person

62
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: I hope I'm becoming, and then there's the person I'm

63
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 1: secretly afraid I might be becoming. Play that back again

64
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: at okay, Jane, here we go, and what was your

65
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: mother Stephanie's relationship with Brock Montecue. He was her boss,

66
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 1: I guess, but she was really in charge of the students.

67
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: I I got the impression that Brock just showed up

68
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: for fundraising or really whenever he smelled money. And did

69
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: she resent that? Not that she told me. I mean,

70
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: she wasn't a fan, but he pretty much stayed out

71
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 1: of her way. Was that the full extent of their

72
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: relationship as far as I know, I think harder? What

73
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: are you getting at? Did their relationship extend outside the school?

74
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: Do you need me to spell it out? Were they

75
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: romantically involved with each other? Were they colleagues with benefit?

76
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: I wasn't living in Hollow Falls at the time. I

77
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: didn't resume that relationship when Brock rolled into town. I

78
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: don't know. Two people targeted by the same killer and

79
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: then that's it. That usually means one thing. A jilted

80
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: lover out for revenge. When did your mother and father divorce?

81
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: You're not saying my dad is involved? Are you answer

82
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: the question? Turning the screws? Nice? Torres? Is that what

83
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: I really sound? Figured after season one you'd be used

84
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: to the sound of your own voice on tape, not

85
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: that I mean, I sound like a monster. You've literally

86
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: faced down multiple mad men trying to carve you two bits,

87
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: and you're bulking at a little aggressive questioning if she

88
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: had known, she would have broken right there, and suddenly

89
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: you know exactly who did it. I'm not saying you

90
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: should go around damaging next of kin's feelings if you

91
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 1: don't have to. But their momentary sadness or anger is nothing,

92
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: I repeat, nothing compared to how thankful they'll be if

93
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: you catch the person who murdered their loved ones. I

94
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: guess you're right, that's him. Yes, check the connection? Secure,

95
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: all hooked up? All right? I am rolling? Go ahead? Okay, Hey,

96
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 1: hey Ali, it's been a few weeks. I thought I

97
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: might have scared you. Offer something. You scared me. I've

98
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: been expecting you to say the exact opposite since the

99
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: first time I called you, so that's not so bad

100
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: to hear. I guess that does sound a little backwards.

101
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: I just haven't heard from you in a while. I

102
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: know I got to take care of some things. It's

103
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: not Oh it's not easy living this way. Did you

104
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: change your mind about No? No, no, definitely not. I

105
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: want to see you so badly, to take your hand

106
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: in mind, to look into your eyes, to feel you

107
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: looking back into mine. Ali. It's just well, not exactly

108
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: easy to come back to Hollow Falls. I'm a one

109
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: in man and it's the one place where everyone knows

110
00:07:53,760 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: my face. But I figured it out. Really, how take

111
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:06,239
Speaker 1: back the falls? What Ella's party? No? No, no, that's

112
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: there will be all kinds of people, and uh, why

113
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: don't I just come to you? That would be so

114
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: much easier, Right, tell me where you are. I can't

115
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: do that. Take. I know it's not easy, but this

116
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: is the only way it'll work. I have to see you, Ali,

117
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: trust me, I'll see you there, Ali, Ali, Ali, fu

118
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: Take what are you mad about? I got it all recorded.

119
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: I can't believe this. You got him to come out

120
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: of hiding. Do you have any idea how amazing this

121
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: is going to be? For your show? Jane? I my show.

122
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 1: I need to go take weight. This is a good thing.

123
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: We're here for foundation selling tickets for take Back the

124
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,840

Speaker 1: Thanks Bobby. Okay, got you down for two. Who's next?

126
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: All right? I got updates, good ones, I hope. Well,

127
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: we've secured six contestants for the midnight drag Ball, and

128
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: all I had to promise was camped passes and a

129
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: fifty dollar gift card to cold Stone for the winner.

130
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: Nicely done. Also, Ella got Brett from a v to

131
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: get his crew on the cameras for the whole night,

132
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: including extra footage for the teen Foundation. TikTok feed. But

133
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: but what he has a praise? Ella? He wants a

134
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: pair of your socks. It was not washed. Come, I'm fine.

135
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 1: And then he's gross And if he tells anyone, I

136
00:09:50,800 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: will end him the sacrifices I make. So any tickets left, Tig. Later,

137
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: something suddenly killed the mood around here. When wait, she

138
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 1: told us what happened. Really, she's pretty hurt, Tig. She

139
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: won't return any of my texts, she blocked me on

140
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: social and and I know her class schedule, so I

141
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: don't know how she keeps avoiding me in the halls. Um,

142
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: we've been giving her TIGG alerts so she can make

143
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 1: sure you don't cross paths in between periods. Sorry, listen,

144
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: tig all right. I've known when a lot longer than

145
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 1: you have, and she's loyal as hell. But once you

146
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: break her trust, she will you make her feel disposable,

147
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,319
Speaker 1: like like you keep her around in case you want

148
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: to dabble on a whim, and then a second later

149
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: you'll be back off to New York or you know,

150
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: on some big podcast tour or something, and you'll never

151
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: give her another glance. I didn't mean to I wouldn't

152
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: do that to her. I'm just really confused about me,

153
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: my life at freething. I have something really important to

160
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: up here last year. Everyone saw you come here, oh

161
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: New York, blah blah blah, and they could see the

162
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: stick up your butt from a mile away. And I thought,

163
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: I thought they were all just being lame, so I

164
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,199
Speaker 1: gave you a chance. But it turns out they were

165
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,040

00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: murder her last year. Yeah, behind the backs of the

173
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: people who showed up to save her stupid life when

174
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: he wanted to throw her in front of an oncoming train.

175
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: You forget that, tig What was it? Anna? Karenina? Well,

176

Speaker 1: enjoy getting killed. I bet it'll be way more fun

177
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: than hanging out with the rest of us when maybe

178
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: not the best advertisement for our positivity party, No, but

179
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: I'm saving it for our tenure reunion. It's going to

180
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: be so funny by then, I hope. Stop second guessing yourself.

181
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,359
Speaker 1: You're doing the right thing, doing your job as a journalist.

182
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: Then why do I feel like I'm just exploiting everyone?

183
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: You're putting a human face on the tragedies of a town.

184
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: The audience deserves to see the whole story more than

185
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: Ali or Stephanie's daughter deserve what anonymity to avoid facing reality.

186
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: Grow up, Tig, and tell the story you mean, tell

187
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 1: the story you want to tell. There's only one story.

188
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: If you show up at a fire, it's your job

189
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: to get an interview with someone who just came out

190
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 1: of that burning building, whether the rest of their family

191
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: came out or not, because whoever gets that interview gets

192
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: the ratings. The public wants to see the realist, raw

193
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,839
Speaker 1: story they can get, and you either cowboy up and

194
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: give it to them, or you're in the wrong business.

195
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 1: That that is that what you think your job is

196
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: to be that cynical about everything. That's just being an adult, Tig.

197
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: Spend two seconds out of your little high school bubble,

198
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: and you'll realize that what you call cynical is simply

199
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: reality for everyone else. That makes me really uncomfortable. Listen

200
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: to me. Take You are sitting on the story of

201

202
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: economic forces that lead a person to murder. You can

203
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: deliver firsthand reporting of what makes Ali Price feel like killing?

00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: Did you know that one in five teenagers is affected

218
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: by a mental health issue? One in five, and here

219
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: in Hollow Falls that number is way higher. We've been

220
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: through a lot together in the Falls, and we put

221
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: on a brave face. But acting strong isn't always the

222
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: same as being strong. It isn't always obvious when someone

223
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: is suffering from a mental health issue. Look around this

224

Speaker 1: five people. Some of us are suffering and staying quiet

226
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 1: about it. Well, tonight is about letting our real selves

227
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: be seen. Counselors are on hand if you want to talk.

228
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: We are stronger together together, there's no reason to be afraid.

229
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: And I want to remind everyone about hashtag falls strong.

230
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,400

310
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: when he was meeting with Walter to talk about the

311
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: gift shop down here under the arches. Oh, this place

312
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,919
Speaker 1: is straight out of my nightmares. I imagine waking up
