HORROR INFO

HORROR INFO ‘The horror’: Murder victim No. 1 was schlocky horror movie actress Weatherly Adams. At first producer Stanley Vespucci claimed she was missing, but Nick quickly discovered her body among some mannequins. There was an axe in her back, but that wasn’t what killed her. Among the suspects: Director Zach Putrid, Revulsion Studio owners Mason and Vincent Lafoon, and Weatherly’s former lover who was disfigured in a fog machine accident: Oliver Zarco. Quite a crew. Send in the suspects: Though Putrid had been having sex with Weatherly, and his skin was under her fingernails, Putrid told Brass that was because she was an “ass scratcher.” Brass also brought in Vincent Lafoon, who on video surveillance appeared to be trying to frame Zarco. Nick and Archie went over the videotape again, however, and discovered that it was Mason Lafoon posing as Archie Lafoon. Confused yet? Bates Motel, anyone? After almost running out of gas and stopping at a super creepy motel, Ronnie went back to the studio to find her cell phone and discovered Dickie’s body. Then Putrid, who’d been shot, but not fatally, found her. Stanley appeared, ready to shoot both Ronnie and Putrid, when a blonde-wigged figure (who turned out to be Zarco dressed in Weatherly’s old clothes) killed him. At the hospital, Putrid was amazed by the whole experience. Then he offered Ronnie a career in horror films, which she promptly turned down. A small proposition: Little person Dickie Jones put the moves on Catherine as she looked for clues. “Have you ever had those thighs kissed by a man who’s standing up?” he asked her. But he also seemed to have information he wasn't sharing. It turned out that Weatherly’s death was accidental. She’d fallen onto a metal post and then Stanley and Mason conspired to cover it up and frame Vincent. Dickie tried to shake down Stanley for some cash, so Stanley killed him. Life before rat-dom Turns out Wendy had a career in horror films before her life as a lab rat. She, Hodges, Ronnie, Sara and Henry watched one of Wendy’s old films. After, Ronnie made a remark about large-breasted women and horror films. Wendy looked down and said, “Mine are kind of medium.” “But perfect,” Hodges felt compelled to add. Just look at that epiglottis: Super Dave is huge horror movie buff and he wanted Doc Robbins to get in on the fun, so he showed him one of Weatherly’s movies. “You can actually see the transverse view of the trachea,” Robbins said, impressed as he watched a woman’s throat get slit. Laying the groundwork: Still shaken by her recent brush with death, Sara was a bit stirred by the horror movie. “When they go after the dark-haired girl, she always dies,” she said to Greg. Then she lamented about the how the murder rate keeps going up and nothing they’re doing is slowing the killers down. “I’m sick of having murder shoved in my face every day,” she said. Say goodbye to Sara (in about two weeks). • Print this
