The lip killer stands revealed. 9 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: Hollow Falls High history teacher and talent newspaper advisor Harry 10 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: Levinson is the maniac behind the murders that rock this 11 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: town a decade ago, as well as the new wave 12 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 1: that hit just as I arrived.

Good news, right, Not exactly, Sam Steiner, 15 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: my aunt's partner, and I trekked out to this desolate 16 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 1: cabin in the hopes of rescuing the mayor's daughter, Ella 17 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: high Smith. Instead, we're trapped with Levinson and his creepy 18 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: old bird mausoleum. From what little I can see in 19 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: the dark, we're surrounded by stuffed birds and avian skulls. 20 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: It's horrible. So this is how it ends for me 21 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: and Ella? While Sam, poor Sam is bleeding out on 22 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: the floor. It's over, Levinson. Don't you realize that this 23 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: is the final act? We are aware we were meant 24 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: to be a trres You're better for me as the 25 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: original lid killer, and now you frame as the new legier. 26 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: Poor young girl so tormented by her aunt's tragic fault 27 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:18,679 Speaker 1: that she's driven to madness. Sam, just stay put, I'll 28 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: get us out of this. How sweet Death's old, spineless 29 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: partner finally sheds his cowardly skin to be reborn a hero, 30 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: dead hero Still, Sam, I thought I've been fairly clear 31 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: in my note tig no sidekicks, Sam, I'm so sorry. 32 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: Steiner is dead. Ella's fever is ramping up. The convulsion 33 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: should start soon, and then well it'll just be the 34 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: two of us. So why just the one live bird? 35 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: What is that a pigeon? That's clearly a dove. I'm 36 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: thinking of naming her tat Over there, that's Anthony the Falcon. 37 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: Next to him is Jake the Sparrow. And that porcelain 38 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: owl over there that's my favorite of the entire collection. 39 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: That's you named your dead birds after your victims. Of 40 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: course I did. We're all one big, happy family. Here 41 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: a collection of my greatest stories. But alas, it's time 42 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: for this sequel to conclude. Just one bird left to go. 43 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: You tried your best kick, but there can be only 44 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: one Beth, and you, my dear, are not her? How's 45 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: your Shakespeare? Kill me tomorrow, let me live tonight? It's 46 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: a fellow, right, good, good, that's right, my young faces Temona, 47 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: What do you, tig? Really? If you got the quote, 48 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: you don't need me to explain further. It's time for 49 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: the curtain to fall. What did you mean that there 50 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: can only be one best? How well did you know her? 51 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: Of course I knew her well. I had to put 52 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: on the act when we spoke, didn't I the helpful, 53 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: kind hearted teacher? But it was all smoking mirrors. You 54 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: remember the mirrors, don't you take it? She still figured 55 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: it out, she knew it was you. Let's not give 56 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: her too much credit. She got as close as I 57 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: wanted her to get, even if she disrupted my plan. 58 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: I had my own contingencies, hence the romance. Oh, Tig, 59 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: didn't you know I wasn't just your aunt Beth's occasional confidante. No, no, 60 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: we were much more than that. If things went over differently, 61 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: you might even be calling me Uncle Harry right now. 62 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: Romance connects us all my day. Why, Vincent? Why kill 63 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: all these people who cares about the white tig? You, 64 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: of all people should know the world is full of 65 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: dark and explicable things. It's time to end this, and 66 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: I need to pose you just right. These presentations can 67 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: be so time consuming. I thought you'd at least have 68 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: some grandiose reason behind all of this. If not, what's 69 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: the point? Killing for nothing just puts you on the 70 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: same level with all the other aesthetic They were fools, 71 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: each and every victim, from Mary Wazni after Sam Steiner, 72 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: who's still inching towards Rigamortis right over there. They were 73 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: all fools. I've spent years as a thankless teacher at 74 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 1: that god forsaken school. My first few semesters they even 75 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: had you teach remedial English. Can you believe it? Me? 76 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: I have master's degrees in eighteenth century British literature and 77 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: European history. Sure I had blemishes on my record, But 78 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: had they bothered to ask I explain the new here 79 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: I was forced to perform for kids who were guaranteed 80 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: to flunk out anyway. Well, Leanderthals couldn't care less about 81 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: the significance of the Count Shell and Lord of the Flies, 82 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: or the dramatic differences between Shakespeare's tragedies and histories. No, 83 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: they just wanted to have sex, get high, and skip class. 84 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: But they were pawns in my own grand story. I 85 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 1: gave their insipid lives meaning purpose. They weren't just zombies 86 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: shambling through life anymore. They were people, characters with beginnings, 87 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: middles and brutal, memorable endings and mean I was the writer. 88 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: So what they didn't care about the work I was 89 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: trying to teach them. That's fine. They had no choice 90 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: in the matter. And you know what, my dear take 91 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: there was a hello story, bloody, gruesome, full of twists 92 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: and double crosses. Beggins would have been proud you are thick? 93 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: Am I sick? Or am I the cure? I took 94 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: out each and every one of those super rats, one 95 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: by one, and all the while, no one except Beth 96 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: came even close to finding out what I was up to. 97 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: But even she was so, so very easy to manipulate 98 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: a little Sherlocke and crusade trude quite acic. I could 99 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: appreciate her romantic gesture at the very end if she 100 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: could change me, But that didn't dampen the wave of pleasure. 101 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: I felt well shooting them without her take, really throwing 102 00:07:54,440 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: things around like some irate oddler in here. Sometimes, despite 103 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: your best intentions, you turn into the teen scream queen, 104 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: especially when you think someone's about to drag you to 105 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: the trash. What get away from her? Loving Oliver? How 106 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: nice to see you get a knife? No, no, you 107 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: caught me, you little ingreat. What were you thinking? This 108 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: is one of your comic books, Oliver? You're not there? 109 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: Oh no, just your dumb owl statue. Beware, for I 110 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: am fearless and therefore powerful. How's that for a literary reference, Harry, 111 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: way to come to my rescue? Well, I didn't really 112 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: get to save the day. Are you okay? I don't 113 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: think I'll ever be okay again, But in that moment, 114 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: there was hope, hope that this was all over. Carver 115 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: and the cops stormed in a few seconds later, paramedics 116 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: right behind. They took Ali and La to get some 117 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 1: much needed medical attention. It was too late for Sam 118 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: Ali showing up when he did really made for the 119 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: perfect distraction. And now, at last it felt like we 120 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: were getting to the end of this whole mess. The 121 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: men who killed my aunt Beth was now finally going 122 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 1: to jail. The news of Levinson's capture spread fast.

I felt tired, unsure, but hopeful. 126 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: This is Sarah Parks w h f Z News reporting live. 127 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: Police have confirmed that Hollow Falls High teacher Harry Levinson 128 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: has been arrested and will be charged in the recent 129 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: lit killer murders, including that of former Ledger reporter Sam Steiner. 130 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 1: Local teens tig Dores and Ella high Smith, daughter of 131 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: Mayor Highsmith, were found alive at the scene.

That new tape that Sam gave me saved 170 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: us in more ways than one. But there are some 171 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: things that are still bugging me. I think it's time 172 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,599 Speaker 1: we talked about the victim that brought us here in 173 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: the first place. Beth torres here. She is on that 174 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: final tape, just a few hours before her death. I'm 175 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: about to head out to the crossing, but wanted to 176 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: record this before I hit the road. I'm not sure 177 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: I can handle driving and talking at the same time. Honestly, 178 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: the lead killing referenced fahrenheit in that first note, So 179 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: if this is his last kill all involved some serious flames. 180 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: That dystopian novel features a lot of burning books, and 181 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: the Crossing seems ripe for a forest fire. Mr bothered 182 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: by that call from Anna Killdean calling for help, afraid 183 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 1: for her wife, I have to go. I have to 184 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: save her if I can. That night, Anna kill Dean 185 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 1: had managed to briefly escape Levinson and get word to 186 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: my aunt Beth that she was being held somewhere near 187 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: a super creepy place called the Crossing. Aunt Beth didn't 188 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: hesitate to try and rescue her, and that was what 189 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: led to her death that night. That's the last recording 190 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: I have of her. So I'm we're done. We've listened 191 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: to everything. What are you still recording for? Hey? Come 192 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: celebrate with us. I can't yet. I feel like I'm 193 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: missing something like this woman who called my aunt on 194 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: the night she died. Who was she? She was important 195 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: enough for Steiner to mention her, and on this tape, 196 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: my aunt Beth said, person, take not your aunt, tag, 197 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: I got you the pineapple pizza, Travis. Do you wanted? 198 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: How's it going in here? Trying to get her out 199 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: of podcast mode. I have to make peace with my 200 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: aunt in my own way. Okay, okay, in taken, I'm 201 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: supposed to check in with the nurse about my stitches. Anyway, 202 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: I'll catch up with you later. Sure, what's still bugging 203 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: you about this? Do you remember the name Anna killed Dean? 204 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: What my aunt said on Sam's tape? Who was she? 205 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. What do you want to do? I'm 206 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: not sure. I don't want to be a drain on 207 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: everyone's fun, but this is really important to me. You know, 208 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: I'll know when it's done. After destroying a few pizzas, 209 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: we decided to reconvene at the Star Diner for some 210 00:15:53,040 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: caffeine and evidence analysis. Just take an Okay. I didn't 211 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: piece all this together until I real listened to my 212 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: aunt Beth's final recording for the hundredth time. Just give 213 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: us the bad already. I'm having major caffeine withdrawal, all right. 214 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: My aunt Beth name dropping Fahrenheit for one stuck with me. 215 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: So I compared the evidence from her death to the others. 216 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: The sense I got was that Levinson was in a hurry. 217 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: He hadn't fully planned for Beth to show the handwritten 218 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: note versus a typed one. The evidence of her being 219 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: killed at the scene as opposed to being moved the 220 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: Shakespeare reference instead of Bradberry. M hmm. The lig Hiler 221 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: was usually so meticulous. This felt rushed and random. Then 222 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: I pulled up a police report about a burn Jane Doe. 223 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: Now I know I was right about what Anna Killed Dean. 224 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: I feel like that name should mean something to me? 225 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: And yet, yes, can I get an ice soy latte 226 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: with two splendors? Sorry to continue? Anna Killdean was the 227 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: woman my aunt Beth tried to save the night she died. 228 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 1: Turns out they knew each other. Anna called Aunt Beeth 229 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: while she was running from the lid killer from Levinson 230 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: to ask her for help. Jesus. Obviously she didn't make 231 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: it in time. But unlike all the other victims, Anna 232 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: Killdean is still technically missing. But I dug around, and 233 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: about six months after my aunt Beth's murder, there are 234 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: police records that point to an unidentified woman who was 235 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: found dead in the school library of a town about 236 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: two miles from here. A tiny bird called gray Malkin. Anyway, 237 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: the woman's body was burnt beyond recognition, So she that 238 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 1: body must have been Levinson's Fahrenheit four. Still you think 239 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 1: that's a little bit of a stretch. I did until 240 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: I read the report Black Covee. Okay, so what I 241 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: really asked for was crema package around the table by 242 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: the ketchup if you want to get fancy yolo and 243 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: all that. Oh God, this place is the best. So 244 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: the report, what did it say? The here? Check out 245 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 1: this part. The victim appears to have died from self immolation, 246 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: Forensic evidence around the body suggesting she poured a nearby 247 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: canister of gasoline over Did they really think someone would 248 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: do that to themselves to keep reading? Also found near 249 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 1: the body, it was a charred paperback book, badly damaged. 250 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 1: A few interior pages remained legible despite the fire damage. 251 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 1: The book was a copy of Rape Bradberry shaheits with one. 252 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: In the novel, the old Woman sets herself on fire. Wait? Wait? 253 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 1: What so the cops just thought this woman was having 254 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: a little speculative fiction binge before setting herself on fire? 255 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 1: Didn't they watch the news? The detective on the case, 256 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: guy named Murray Lambsman, was a few weeks from retire 257 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: meant he did the bare minimum and walked away. So 258 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: Levinson burned her to death. Horrible. Okay, so it's another 259 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: disgusting murder, which apparently is just another day around here. 260 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 1: I mean, it totally sucks. But why should we care 261 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: about her? She was debate. The lip killer used to 262 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: drain my aunt, just like he used ella debate me. 263 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: And after my aunt died the lip killer stopped. He 264 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 1: went underground for a decade. So she's the Kaiser says that, 265 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: like we know what that? Yes, exactly, she's the missing link. 266 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: But it's not just that she was different. She wasn't 267 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: a remedial student. She was a grown woman, divorced, lived 268 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: a rough life on the fringes of society. She didn't 269 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: grow up in Hollow Falls, meaning she didn't go to 270 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: Hollow Falls high not your typical lit killer victim. What 271 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: made Levinson veer off course to killer? And why? So? 272 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: Not done? Damn it? I knew that celebration pizzas too hasty, 273 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: So then what's our plan? Honestly there is no plan, 274 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: But I know what I need to do right now 275 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: to put this case to bed. I need to go 276 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: to the crossing and say goodbye to my aunt. Beth alone. 277 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: Uh is this really the best time? How old? She 278 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 1: needs closures? She needs closure? All right, you're right, you're right. 279 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: Do what you gotta do for you, and then we'll 280 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: reconvene to tackle our next nightmare problem. I left Maximum 281 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: Win with a few cleanup tasks, and then it was 282 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: off to say my advice. Okay, so when I said 283 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: I was going alone to the crossing, that wasn't exactly 284 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 1: the truth. Wow, you were kid. This place is beyond creeping. 285 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how it stacks up next to the 286 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: old amusement park, But Hollow Falls that's where the lip 287 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: Hler left his mark. He kind of passed through this 288 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: tiny town and changed it forever. Hollow Falls is the 289 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: big picture. But the Crossing, it's the boiling point. The 290 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: cops found my aunt's body on the shore of this brook, 291 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: under the branches of that willow tree. Her neck was snapped, 292 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: but Levinson had clearly taken a time to dress her 293 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,439 Speaker 1: up in some vintage white dress. Staged like the others. 294 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 1: I am incapable of my own distress. There is a 295 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: willow grows aslant the brook. That's what the note they 296 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 1: found with her body said. The cops never released it publicly, 297 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: but we got to see it. They claimed it was 298 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: their suicide. Note, Hey, that's right. Maybe this town is 299 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 1: the problem, she said. He's going on about the birds 300 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 1: above and the hole that runs underneath. Maybe this is 301 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: just a pleading ground for killers. I don't know which 302 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: which book was a mental look like Hamlet? Levinson saved 303 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 1: one of the Shakespeare classics for my Aunt Beth, and 304 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: it a girl named Ophelia goes mad and kills herself, 305 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: allegedly by dropping from a willow tree into a waiting 306 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: body of water. Jesus, he was planning a similar fate 307 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: for me if you hadn't. What did he say to you? 308 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: He called me his Desdemona. She was a character and Othello, 309 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: she's strong, She pisss off her dad, but she's independent 310 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: and fierce and like my aunt, like your aunt. What 311 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: she's murdered by her lover. Oh sake, that's horrible. You 312 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: sound almost surprised. What do you mean? Is this the 313 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: part where you pretend to have no idea? Tig is 314 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: that hit Ali? I fall for you and then you 315 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 1: kill me the same way Levinson killed my heart. Levenson 316 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: was so right. His literary theatrics are way too on 317 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 1: the nose. I mean, if it were up to me, 318 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: I would have killed you in a much more interesting way. 319 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: So you were what his serial killer sidekick he wishes 320 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: he's the past, I'm the future. My plans for you 321 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: are better than anything that old hack could cook up. 322 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm still impressed you figured it out. I underestimated you, 323 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 1: tig torres. That doesn't change how the story will play out. 324 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: Hapless teen reporter dies in same tragic spot. Is her 325 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 1: aunt hear that? That's your destiny? Calling, tig you've read 326 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: Anna Karna right? Yes, she dies jumping in front of 327 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: a train, Confused, angry, and betrayed. Sound like anyone we know. 328 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: I can't believe Levinson was gonna kill you using a 329 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: Shakespeare reference. My version will be so much more poetic. Holly, 330 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: you don't mean this. You don't know anything about me. 331 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: You breathe into this town thinking you understand us in 332 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,719 Speaker 1: our history, but you just bailed when things got too 333 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: tough for you and your family. You know what happens 334 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 1: to people like that, take leave when things get told, 335 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: like what happened to Anna Kildean? What did you just say? 336 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: I know she meant something to you. Know. This is 337 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: I still know the fruit Levinson killed her for you, 338 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: didn't he even though she wasn't one of his students, 339 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 1: even though he had no reason to. I knew it 340 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: was you, aally. It broke my heart over and over 341 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: to think so, but I knew it was you. You 342 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 1: didn't suspect anything. If you had, you wouldn't have climbed 343 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: into my room that night begging to have sex. Get 344 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: over yourself, boy, wonder that doubt was already there. You 345 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: left clues all over the place. You just happened to 346 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: be around when we discovered Tony's body. In the first clue, 347 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: how you found that book so fast in the principal's office. 348 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: How you let Ella get hit napps from the hospital. 349 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: I wanted to believe it couldn't be you, but mhm, 350 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: here we are. The evidence is the evidence. When I 351 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: listened to that clip again, that's when I knew your plan, 352 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: that you were going to try and recreate how my 353 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: aunt died. I told when to tell you I was 354 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: going to the crossing to get closure. So when you 355 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 1: showed up here, all wide eyed and eager to be supportive, 356 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: that's when I knew for sure you were going to 357 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 1: try to kill me. You know what else is good 358 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: about Anna, Karenina take It's simple. All it takes is 359 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: a train and you if you broke open my stitches, 360 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 1: m we're the same, you and I. You're still too 361 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: busy chasing after order in a world that's just chaos 362 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 1: and death. Life. That's not part of the game, though, 363 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: is it? All? The game is what I make of it. 364 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: Levinson Want You is disciple to cheat in the final round. 365 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: Don't pretend to be in my head. Levinson saved me. 366 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: He took me in when your stupid aunt tried to 367 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 1: stop him, tried to save my That and a woman. 368 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: She got what she deserved. They both did, and then 369 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: I really got to learn from him. I was just 370 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: waiting for the perfect moment, and it appeared like a 371 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: gift when you came back to town. Tag. It was 372 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: my time to shine, and I would have if he 373 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: had hadn't kidnapped me. That wasn't his place. It was 374 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: my turn, and you were mine. Sure Levinson helped a bit, 375 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: but it was my chance to prove myself. But then you, 376 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: you and I you and I want it was gonna 377 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: be your turn eventually take You know how drama works, 378 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: there needs to be a climax in epic conclusion. I 379 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: needed to work myself up to it. If I was 380 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 1: just another victim to you, Why did you risk yourself 381 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 1: to save me from Levinston. Maybe it's because of the 382 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 1: way you feel about No. I can do it. I 383 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: can go through with it. You can't, though, can you? Allly? 384 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: This isn't who you are. You're not Levinson, You're not 385 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: a kill.

But too many more 431 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: bodies have dropped, too much blood has spilled.
