Cannibal Mukbang (2023) Movie Script
1
[suspenseful music]
[rabbit thuds]
[gentle music]
Secret heart
My crippling anxiety
And I'm paranoid
Whenever fucking strangers
Glance at me
There's an ache in my head
And that's when
I tend to forget
'Cause sometimes
lovin' hurts
[gentle music continues]
[soft rock music]
[door creaks]
[door bells chime]
[footsteps tapping]
[door bells chime]
[packet rustling]
[footsteps tapping]
[wind whooshes]
And I was the last to know
Like an animal
It's the end of the world
But you give me a life
You gave me your love
[cash register clicking]
[drawer thuds]
[footsteps tapping]
[bag crunches]
Oops, sorry.
[Ash chuckles]
Here you go.
Oh, my God, thanks.
These are my favorite flavor.
Really?
It's mine too.
No way?
They're kind of weird,
don't you think?
Yeah. [laughs awkwardly]
Uh, I'm running late
for an appointment.
At 2 am?
[Mark] Uh, yep.
Okay.
[barcode scanner beeps]
[Ash chuckles]
-[gentle music]
-[footsteps tapping]
[singer vocalizing]
-[tires screeching]
-[car crashes]
[pensive music]
[packet rustles]
[ominous music]
[Ash gasps]
Oh, my God. [sighs]
[footsteps tapping]
Thank God you are okay.
And no fever. Great.
What happened?
[Ash] Please
don't call the cops.
No, wait, I'm not-
I mean, it was so dark
and I didn't see you
and then all of a sudden, you
were, like, right behind me.
I swear, I was only going,
like, five miles an hour.
And then I saw that metal
plate thing on your head
and thought maybe
I had done that,
even though there's no
way I could have.
Thank God you're okay.
I'm fine.
I, um, my head hurts a little.
Oh.
Let me get you
something for that.
Don't move a muscle!
[bed creaks]
[mysterious music]
All I could find is
extra strength aspirin.
-[Mark gasps]
-[bed thuds]
Oh, that's, that's
great, thanks.
Wait!
You can't take that
on an empty stomach.
[Mark spits]
[gentle music]
This is...
Thank you.
Um, but actually, I'm trying out
the whole Paleo caveman thing,
so I, I've got
some stuff to lose.
Well, I think you look great.
And besides, like, food is fuel.
I don't know about you
but I'm starving.
[teeth chomping]
Come on, don't make this weird.
[Mark chuckles]
[teeth chomping]
This is amazing.
Seriously.
It's so.
[teeth chomping]
It's like juicy. [chuckles]
[Ash chuckles]
You know what I just realized?
What?
I don't even know your name.
[Ash chuckles]
Oh.
Yeah, right.
That's something that
people do, right?
Introduce themselves.
Um.
I'm Ash. [chuckles]
Uh.
Um.
[both chuckle]
I'm Mark.
It's nice to meet you, Ash.
[food clatters]
So...
What's actually up with that
metal thing in your head?
I was in a car
accident when I was a kid.
Of course, I hit the
guy with brain damage!
Nothing a little therapy
and booze can't fix.
You know what, it is
actually kind of cool.
[lips smack]
-Can I like-
-Um.
[Ash chuckles]
Sure.
[metal clanking]
Um.
What do you do?
Mm.
A lot of internet things.
What do you do
do for, like, work?
It's a little embarrassing.
[teeth chomping]
It can't be more
embarrassing than what I do.
Oh, really?
-[food crunches]
-Mm-hmm.
Oh, okay, wait, let me guess.
You...
You're a coder.
No wait, okay.
You are a professional gamer.
No, those are both
[Ash chuckles]
cool things.
Um.
I'm, um,
a customer service guy for
a meal delivery service.
Which one?
You know Yellow Mitten?
Yeah, of course,
I love their stuff.
They actually sponsor me.
[chip crackles]
Please tell me you're
not an influencer.
Mm.
[food crackles]
Not exactly.
Well, kind of.
Okay, okay.
You told me.
So I'm gonna tell you.
I eat stuff
online for people,
but I don't usually, like,
show my whole face or
anything like that.
You mukbang?
[screams] Oh, my God!
I can't believe you
actually know what that is!
Well, what's
more embarrassing?
The one who mukbangs
or the one who watches
the mukbang? [chuckles]
Oh, definitely the one
who watches the mukbang.
-Ouch.
-Mm-hmm.
[both chuckling]
No, but, like.
Seriously, I think
that is so cool
that you understand what I do.
Like, most people either
don't know what it is
or they think it's
a piece of cake.
You're the director,
a writer, a producer, a chef,
a camera op.
An actress!
I mean, I could
never do that.
Exactly.
Seriously though, this is.
How did you cook this?
This is, like, beyond
good. [chuckles]
Secret family recipe.
If I told you I'd
have to kill you.
[Mark chuckles softly]
[Ash chuckles softly]
[Radio Reporter] The body
of yet another young woman
has been found on
the side of I-25.
She's not been-
[switch clicking]
[crickets chirping]
[Mark] Her voice is
just a bit grating.
[sighs] Well, thanks for-
-Hitting you with my car?
[both laughing]
[Mark] Yeah.
Any time.
Maybe not
any time. [chuckles]
[lips smack]
I hope that we
can do this again
under less dramatic
circumstances.
[paper rustling]
So what's your
number, Brain Damage?
It's...
[pen scratching]
[paper ripping]
I'll call you, okay?
[car door clicks]
[vehicles whooshing]
[car door thuds]
[Mark sighs]
[phone ringing]
What's up little bro?
Mav, [chuckles] you won't
believe what just happened.
Oh, yeah?
I met this girl last night
at Save-More and she's amazing.
Oh, really? What
happened to Sarah?
I know Sarah's friends
with Jessica and all,
but I'm sorry, she's
kinda boring.
Girls don't need to be
interesting for you to fuck.
[Mark chuckles softly]
I know, but she's.
This girl's just,
she's different.
Yeah, the '80s called,
they want their lines back.
[chuckles] Come on, man.
I'm just trying to help
you out like I always do.
[Maverick] You gotta stop being
so Goddamn sensitive.
Girls... girls like sensitive.
Yeah, says the cuck
to the married man.
Hey, can we circle back, buddy?
[footsteps tapping]
Kind of busy.
[chair creaks]
[Mark] It saddens and
shocks me to hear
that you were feeling unwell
after a Yellow
Mitten meal, Ma'am.
[Customer] Well,
the parsley was wilted
and there wasn't
enough sour cream.
Also, how could
you possibly think
that red pepper flakes are
necessary in a meal like this?
[Mark] Well, ma'am, the
instructions for the enchiladas
do specify that the red
pepper flakes are optional.
[Customer] I didn't ask
you if they were optional.
I'm telling you, they
were unnecessary.
[Mark sighs]
I'm sorry-
-[Customer] Just refund
me on the whole box .
[Mark sighs]
Ma'am, for the price of
the red pepper f-flakes,
the best I can offer you
is one free meal credit.
[Customer] One meal?
If you don't refund me,
I'm canceling my account
and telling every
single person I know
that Yellow Mitten is
a disgusting company
with disgusting food
[stomach growling]
and that you're all
disgusting crooks.
[sighs] Ma'am,
-I...
-[Customer] You what?
[stomach growling]
-I...
I'm sorry.
[Mark vomiting]
[Customer] Oh, my God,
you're vomiting, aren't you?
See, Yellow Mitten food
isn't just tasteless,
it makes people sick.
[Ash] Mm!
[food being chewed]
[mysterious music]
Unplug, big boy.
Why watch when you can
have the real thing?
[bell clangs]
[mysterious music continues]
[footsteps tapping]
[jewels clink]
Is this the only offering you
brought your master today?
[mysterious music continues]
[jewels clattering]
[ominous music]
I would give any part
of myself for you, master!
[Mark screaming]
[Mark laughing]
[Mark startles]
[Ash] Oh, my God, these
meatballs are so juicy!
[Mark groans]
[laptop thuds]
[Mark sighs]
[call beeping]
[Dr. Klein] Hi, Mark!
Hi, Dr. Klein.
So, what's been going
on in your life this week?
I got hit by a car
but it was by this girl,
and we hung out.
Um.
She gave me this after.
Gel pen is a nice touch.
What do you think it means?
What do you want it to mean?
[Mark] I don't know,
I guess,
[Mark vomiting]
I really like her.
[toothbrush scraping]
[Dr. Klein] Are you
gonna contact her?
[Mark] No, I
don't know, I just.
I want her to call me first.
[Dr. Klein] So you
could assume, perhaps,
that since she gave
you her number,
maybe she wants
you to contact her.
[Mark] Maybe she's
just being nice.
[Dr. Klein] Let me
ask you something, Mark.
When do you feel it's the
right time to get attached?
[laptop thuds]
[Mark] I don't really
like getting attached at all
to be completely
honest with you.
[Dr. Klein] And why is that?
Mark?
[phone thuds]
[Mark] It's easier that way.
[bed creaks]
[TV clicks]
[Man On TV] The operating
room is no place to experiment.
[doorbell dings]
[Maverick] What's
the password?
Funny password.
[alarm buzzes]
Thanks, Mav.
Cheers.
[glasses clink]
Cheers.
[Mark coughs]
I know you probably got
a million things to do.
Ah, well, you know,
things with the Swedes
have cooled down
since the last deal we made, so.
So.
70-hour weeks
versus 60-hour weeks.
Mr. Big Shot working
himself to the bone.
Work talk is so boring.
It's not every day that my
little bro falls in love.
I'm not in love, I just...
I need some advice.
Well, usually
you've sabotaged it
or run away at this
point, so which is it?
No running away,
just ghosting.
From you or her?
Her.
[scoffs] Commonplace.
Yeah.
So what's so special
about this one, huh?
She's unique.
We're all unique.
Yeah, but she's,
she's different.
She's, she's kind of off in
a captivating, quirky way.
Code for crazy.
[Mark chuckles]
What does she do anyways?
She's a mukbanger.
A what banger?
A mukbanger.
She eats food on camera,
a lot of it.
It's, it's really lucrative.
What even is a mukbang?
It's a South Korean thing,
you wouldn't understand.
Uh, only one of us
has been to South Korea
and it's not you.
That only makes
it more embarrassing
that you don't know
what a mukbanger is.
I'm more into real
banging versus muck banging.
Christ. [chuckles]
[Jessica hums]
Oh, hello, Mark.
[door thuds]
I didn't realize
you had company.
Not company, honey, family.
I see that now.
Why don't you run along to
the jacuzzi without me, dear?
I'm having bro time.
[door clatters]
What's up with her?
I kind of forgot that
this is our date night.
Oh, I can go if
you want, dude.
N-no, no, stay, please, this
is so much more entertaining.
I don't wanna get in the
way of your love life or...
[Maverick scoffs]
Love!
You think that's what this is?
I guess.
If it weren't for her kids,
do you think I'd still be here?
Honestly?
Seriously.
I know you're in
a tricky situation
with the kids and everything.
Can we talk about this
another time, please?
Yeah, whatever man, yeah.
[hand tapping]
So, I wanna hear more about
this manic pixie dream girl.
-Her name is Ash.
-Smash, right?
She ghosted you?
Sort of.
[Maverick sips]
For how long?
Like a week.
Not tragic... yet.
When is it considered tragic?
I give it maybe two weeks.
She's busy banging.
Mukbanging.
[Maverick] I know what you need.
[tray clatters]
[Maverick sniffing]
Huh?
[chuckles] I'm okay.
[Maverick sniffing]
Oh. [exhales hardly]
You need a lay and I'm not
talking about the chip, buddy!
You are disgusting!
I'm right, you
barely know this girl.
Not yet.
Uh, [snaps] call
that, that basic girl,
that dull, pale, giggly one.
She's into you.
-You mean your secretary?
-Yeah, yeah.
Ja-Janine.
Isn't her name Jenny?
Whatever.
This is not a good idea.
This was a great idea!
I know, right? [chuckles]
[Jenny chuckles]
-[Mark chuckles]
-[Jenny sips]
[chip crackles]
So one time, I was in
an improv show and,
[chip crackles]
there was this
crazy chase scene.
So,
we lived in Ridgewood
for about five years.
And we never saw our neighbors.
[chip crackles]
And then.
[Jenny speaking indistinctly]
And we just said,
somebody's really
got to clean that up!
[Jenny chuckles]
I'll be right back.
I gotta pee.
[crowd chattering]
[phone chimes]
[pensive music]
[footsteps tapping]
I got another round.
Oh, wow.
You okay?
Actually, no.
I'm really sorry, I,
I think I have to run.
You, you are really
sweet and pretty
and I would be lucky to
be on this date with you.
It's just,
I sort of have a
girlfriend. [chuckles]
Sort of?
I mean, no, but I want to.
It's complicated, um,
but it wouldn't be
right for me to sit here
and pretend like I'm not
distracted when I am.
I hope this wasn't
weird of me to say.
It was weird,
but thanks for not
wasting my time, I guess?
Thank you for being
so understanding,
and, um, here.
Oh!
Last round is on me!
[crowd chattering]
[crickets chirping]
[door creaking]
Hello?
[ominous music]
[footsteps tapping]
Hello?
[crickets chirping]
[switch clicks]
Ash?
[blanket rustles]
Hey, Mark.
[Mark] Jesus!
It's me.
God.
[Mark chuckles]
[Mark] God, is
that really you?
[switch clicks]
Tell me all your sins.
I pick my nose.
Yeah?
You ever eat it?
No, I mean, yeah, when
I was a kid. [chuckles]
Same.
What are you doing?
[door creaks and shuts]
Thinking.
About?
You.
And some other stuff, too.
Really?
Well, yeah.
I hit you with my car!
I was wondering if
you were like, okay.
I'm fine.
I was at Save-More,
and I was hoping I would
run into you again.
[chuckles] Okay, well, not
literally, but, you know.
[Mark chuckles]
You wanna come in here?
Yeah.
[both chuckle]
Tag, you're it.
[Ash chuckles]
[Mark chuckles]
-[Mark groans]
-[body thuds]
[Ash chuckles]
-Are you okay?
-Yeah, I'm okay.
-Are you okay?
-I'm sorry.
Yeah, I'm fine I think.
[Ash chuckles]
[switch clicks]
Whoa.
You know,
[switch clicks]
clumsiness can be cured.
[switch clicks]
Oh, yeah?
-[Mark chuckles]
-Yeah.
You just have to, like,
actively fight against it.
Like, look in the mirror,
and tell yourself,
"I'm not clumsy, I'm not
clumsy, I'm not clumsy."
And eventually you
won't be clumsy.
I used to drop
things constantly.
I was always tripping,
falling over.
Turns out,
I just wasn't really paying
attention most of the time.
So, let me get this straight.
I'm clumsy because you
hit me with your car?
No, you're clumsy because
you can barely get inside
a blanket fort
without almost dying.
Uh.
[both chuckle]
I haven't been in a blanket
fort since I was, like, six.
[Mark chuckles]
Yeah, well, if you could
just try your best not to die
in front of me, if
you can handle that.
-[Ash chuckles]
-[Mark] I'll try.
Thanks.
[Mark sighs]
So, you, you come
in here a lot or?
Yeah, I do.
I always wanted to do
this when I was a kid.
But I couldn't, so.
Now, whenever it feels
like the internet
is taking over my brain,
I build this.
Makes me feel like
a real person again.
[Mark chuckles]
Tell me something
that makes you happy.
Uh.
Um.
Okay.
Uh.
I write movie reviews.
Really?
What kind of movies?
Uh, mostly horror,
like sci-fi, action type stuff.
No way, I love horror!
You do?
Yeah, especially like
B-horror, you know.
Give me all the blood and
guts and sex. [chuckles]
Well, they're about a
lot more than that, though.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, they're,
they're like, about life
and like the human spirit
making something out of nothing.
Hmm.
Never really thought
about it like that before.
Well, maybe we could
watch a movie sometime.
Or like, I'll send you
a review, or whatever.
Yeah, I'd like that.
Cool, cool.
So.
Where are you from?
Um.
Why don't you go first?
Okay, um.
I grew up in Florida,
but I moved here when I was
10 with my brother Maverick,
and we lived in a foster home
after our parents passed away.
Oh, you don't have to
like, talk about that.
It's fine.
It was a car accident.
Same one that gave
me this plate.
But, um.
Yeah, we got messed up.
Maverick, too.
Seems like you two
are really close.
Yeah, we are, um.
He's kind of a jerk,
but he's harmless.
So, yeah,
to answer your original
question, I'm from Florida,
the armpit of America.
And now, it's your turn.
I go, you go.
-[Mark chuckles]
-Um.
Okay.
I'm from Louisiana.
Oh, so we're both
from the South.
Yeah, something like that.
We, we don't
have to like talk,
like talk about it.
No, it's, um,
just today is like a rotten day.
Why?
Today is the anniversary
of my sister's death.
Ash, I'm so sorry.
No, let's like not do that.
Um.
It's fine.
Really, it's fine.
I'm just...
I'm really happy I don't have to
spend today alone, you know?
Can I put my arm around you?
Yeah.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
[Ash chuckles]
[Mark sighs]
Wow,
who knew we were
both so depressing?
I knew I was but
you are... [chuckles]
[lips smack]
[pensive music]
[lips smacking]
[pensive music continues]
-[Mark groans]
-[Ash exhales]
I'm sorry.
-No, it's-
-I'm sorry.
-It's okay.
-I just want,
I just wanna take things slow.
It's okay.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
One, two.
[upbeat music]
One, two.
[hands tapping]
Are we supposed
to be counting?
When I was a kid,
I was convinced that.
What's that?
She's just on fire
Don't worry I can save it
Oh, no, I'm keeping
you up late again.
I don't mind.
I do have to go to work, though.
Right. Yeah, work.
Well, maybe we can
do like a
dinner date, movie date thing.
Name the time and place,
and I will be there.
[upbeat music]
[phone chimes]
It's coming back
-[footsteps tapping]
-[messages popping]
[upbeat music continues]
Shit!
[notebook rustles]
[outgoing call tone]
[Maverick] Make it quick,
I'm about to get a blowie.
Eww, did you just say blowie?
[Maverick] Chop,
chop, man, what's up?
Where's a cool place to
take someone on a date?
I've never been here before,
but I've been trying
to eat more vegan food.
Are you okay?
Do you wanna go somewhere else?
Um. No, I'm, I'm fine, I've just
been on some weird dates here.
Can we like, go inside?
I'm starving.
-[customers chattering]
-[dishes clinking]
Hey.
Hi.
Are you okay?
Did something
happen to your hand?
I'm fine.
That means you're not, though.
I'm fine.
I'm just, like, hungry.
Where's the menu?
Oh, you just have,
you have to scan it.
Yeah, I'm not an idiot.
[customers chattering]
What's your problem?
Nothing, I, I
am just wondering.
Are you always like
this at restaurants?
Like what?
Like all tense
and angry and scary.
And this place, it's just like.
-[table thuds]
-[plate clinks]
[sighs] Whatever, it's fine.
If you wanna leave, we
should, we should leave.
No, we should stay.
I just am like... really hungry
and when I get hungry,
I get "hangry."
And I know that's
a dumb phrase, but it's real,
at least for me.
Will you just do me a favor
and breathe?
[both breathing heavily]
-[door clicks]
-[both chuckle]
What?
You need to go home.
What?
Please go now.
Why?
Just go!
Did I, did I say something or?
No, no, you just...
You can't be seen with me here.
Just.
Can you leave now?
Please?
[ominous music]
[footsteps tapping]
[customers chattering]
[door clicks and creaks]
[downbeat rock music]
[car door thuds]
[Mark gurgling]
[Mark coughs]
It's okay, it's okay!
[rain pattering]
She's too good for you.
[Ash chuckling]
Don't you just love the rain?
[chuckles] I love what the
rain's doing to your clothes.
[both chuckle]
[lips smacking]
[Ash groaning]
Stop!
What?
Come on, babe, I thought
you liked it rough?
Well, I do, but not here.
Hey, you don't get to tell me
where I get to fuck you!
-[hand slaps]
-[ominous music]
[Ash groans]
-[kick thuds]
-[Ash groans]
-[Stefano grunting]
-[Ash groaning]
-[Stefano panting]
-[Ash groaning]
Oh, your skin is so smooth.
-And it's so tight too!
-[Ash groaning]
[ominous music intensifies]
You think you like it rough?
You have no idea
what it's rough is.
[bone cracking]
[Stefano groaning]
-[blood splattering]
-[Ash chuckling]
[Stefano groaning]
Oh, God!
You crazy cunt!
Cunt! [laughs]
How original.
-[Ash spits]
-[Stefano groans]
Remember when you said
you like to deep throat?
I like to deep throat too.
-[Ash grunts]
-[flesh squelches]
[Ash sighs]
-[ominous music]
-[flesh squelching]
Ash?
[Ash growls]
[Ash panting]
[Ash spits]
Mark.
What are you doing here?
I told you to go home.
I was,
I was drinking and then I heard,
I saw what you did to that man.
Fuck.
You're eating him.
Yeah, I didn't really want
you to see me like this.
You gonna help me move the body?
What?
You gonna help me move this?
Uh.
I guess so.
Great.
Thanks.
[rain pattering]
Relax.
It's just a body.
[rain pattering]
[car engine revving]
Holy shit, I think we're good.
I don't see anyone on our tail.
God, I just feel so alive!
-[rock music]
-[Ash panting]
What?
What did you do that for?
Are you serious?
Well, if you're
not gonna talk to me,
we might as well
listen to something.
[Ash sighs]
We're just, you're
just gonna pretend like,
like that was okay?
What does "okay" even mean?
It's the circle of life,
people live and people die.
It's normal.
Normal for who?
Normal for me, and
now normal for you.
You just help me
move a dead body.
You're in this now.
No, no, I'm no, I'm not in.
I'm not in it-
-No?
You wanted to hang out with me?
Get to know me?
Well, this is me, Mark.
Yeah, I want, I, I
wanted to get to know you.
Yeah, not, not hurt anybody,
let alone kill anybody!
Mark, he wasn't just anybody.
How many people
have you done this to?
[rain pattering]
[ominous music]
Come on, like
that really matters.
-[lips smack]
-[Mark sighs]
Please, please, please, I,
I just, uh. [sighs]
Please, I think
after what happened,
I think I deserve to know
what, what is going on, please.
[Ash sighs]
Yeah, okay.
Okay.
I'll tell you when we
get back to my place.
[rain pattering]
[light clicks]
[plastic rustles]
Big boy's gotta go on there.
Earth to Mark.
You okay?
What were in those
tacos the other night?
[Ash chuckles]
Let's talk and work, yeah?
[footsteps tapping]
[ominous music]
Please. I need to know.
Isn't it obvious?
Did you feed me this?
So what if I did?
So what.
[knife clicks]
I bet you don't even know
what hot dogs are made out of.
[knife clicks]
Hot dogs are made out of pork,
and, and beef
trimming, not, not human.
Pork and beef.
Okay, first of all, I
thought you were a foodie.
You should really do your
research on hot dogs.
Second, just relax, okay?
I can explain.
I don't kill just anyone.
What does that even mean?
Who do you kill?
I only kill the people that
society could do without.
The Ted Bundy,
John Wayne Gacy,
Rodney Alcala,
Earl Bradley,
Jeffrey Epstein types.
Except the not so famous guys.
The ones that get away
with doing horrible things
to innocent people scot-free.
Isn't that what
the police are for?
Don't be silly.
[knife clicks]
[ominous music]
[flesh squelching]
Does this have anything
to do with A. Rouge?
What did you say?
A. Rouge?
[knife sheaths]
Don't ever say
that name again.
Sorry, uh... I just, I saw the
picture in your room
with the name on it and I just,
I should have,
I should, I should have
asked you, I don't know.
I read about her.
Alexandra Rouge.
[knife slices]
So what did you find
while you were looking up
my personal information?
Just articles
about her missing,
and her body.
She was in really rough
shape when they found her.
Dead is pretty rough, yeah.
How did you know her?
She was my sister.
You know,
the one that died.
I told you about
her the other night.
-[ominous music]
-[flesh squelches]
I'm sorry, Ash.
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
everyone is so sorry.
But terrible things still
happen every day, don't they?
I guess so.
And nobody really does
anything to help, do they?
No, they just post about
the crimes on social media,
prayers for their
family, yada, yada, yada
but what does that actually do?
Nothing.
[knife clatters]
[flesh squelches]
[ominous music]
[Ash exhales slowly]
That's my favorite cut.
I don't understand how
you can stomach people.
It's kind of
horrible at first.
But then you can't stop
thinking about it.
Eventually, it's the only thing
that'll make you
feel truly full.
[ominous music continues]
[plastic cover rustling]
Am I next on the menu?
No.
No, no, no, no,
no, silly, God, no!
You're not my taste, remember?
I only kill the bad guys,
rapists and stuff.
You're not a bad guy.
Are you?
[ominous music]
I don't know.
I don't, I don't think so.
-[flesh squelching]
-[ominous music]
[tray clatters]
[refrigerator door thuds]
What?
I'm sorry.
This is just a lot, and,
you're really pretty, and,
a lot prettier than me, and...
Mark.
[lips smacking]
Sorry, I just,
I wanna take things slow.
You're almost too nice.
Well, I don't know about you.
I could use a good shower.
[plastic curtain rustles]
[footsteps tapping]
[water splashing]
Come talk to me.
[Mark groans softly]
Look, I know this
seems like a lot,
but trust me, that man did
not deserve your sympathy.
Maybe he doesn't
deserve my sympathy,
but how, how do you actually
know that he's a bad dude?
There are lots of
forums out there.
I do my research.
[Mark] Forums for what?
Everything.
Abusers, serial killers,
rapists, pedophiles.
[water splashing]
So, you, you actually
have done this a lot? Like...
For real, this is like,
not just like a one time
freak of nature thing?
This is actually your life?
I guess so.
I...
I think I need some
time to process this.
[water splashing]
I'm gonna go home.
[mirror squeaking]
I get it.
Just don't be a ghost.
You're in this now.
First bite!
[food crackling]
Mm!
-[refrigerator door clatters]
-[bottles clinking]
[Mark coughs and spits]
[suspenseful music]
[bottles clinking]
[upbeat music]
Three, two, one, recording!
Hey, all you bangers!
Welcome back to my channel.
I want you, Ash.
[upbeat music continues]
Oh, Mark.
[lips smacking]
-[Mark screeching]
-[flesh squelching]
[Ash moans]
[flesh squelching]
Oh.
Oh, it feels so good!
Mark, yes!
Oh, Mark, yes!
[Ash moaning]
It feels so good!
-[Mark growls]
-[Ash moans]
[upbeat music continues]
You're all I want,
all I want is you!
[Mark screeching]
[Mark coughs]
[Mark chuckling]
[Mark panting]
[Mark chuckles]
You're losing it, buddy.
[Mark chuckles]
[Mark groans softly]
[body thuds]
[upbeat music continues]
[Mark groans and coughs]
[phone vibrating]
Hello?
[Mark groaning]
Something's happening to me.
My body, my body feels like
it's eating itself. [groans]
Sounds like the
hunger is starting.
[Mark] [groans] What
does it mean?
[Ash] Come over tonight.
[groans] Okay. [sobs]
Okay. [groans]
And bring an extra
set of clothes.
We're gonna have
a slumber party.
[phone clatters]
[food crackling]
Mm!
[knuckles rapping]
[Mark panting]
[door creaks open]
Whoo!
You got it bad.
[door creaks]
[ominous music]
[gear squeaking]
[teeth chomping]
[Mark groans]
The first week after
it's bearable but
any longer without it and
then you start to feel it.
[ominous music]
[Mark startles]
Did you know that
when I'm near you
my entire body gets tingly,
hot,
and cold.
[Mark breathing heavily]
[lips smacking]
[both moaning]
-[lips smacking]
-[both moaning]
[Mark groans]
[Mark sighs]
What?
Why'd you stop?
This just doesn't
make any sense.
[Mark breathing heavily]
I'm, I'm eating people.
People with, with jobs
and, and, and hobbies,
and, and friends and family.
[ominous music]
And I like it.
I really like it.
That's fucked.
You ate that
creep from our date.
He doesn't exactly
count as people.
He raped and killed,
like, three girls Mark.
Three young girls.
Get a grip.
Get a grip? [chuckles]
[groans] How are
you not in jail?
Give a girl some credit.
You want some more?
[ominous music]
[Mark groans]
[Mark sighing]
How you holding up?
Still a little weird.
But better.
How are you?
Honestly?
Honestly.
I'm upset you looked up
information about Allie
without asking me first.
Allie?
Alexandra Rouge.
She was Allie to me.
I was just, I wanted
to know more about you.
I would have told
you about Allie
if you had just asked me.
Promise me,
you won't go digging into
my life online anymore.
I promise.
[lips smacking]
Will you tell me about her now?
Okay.
[gentle music]
So,
we never really had parents.
At least not from
what I can remember.
The memories, they
tend to come and go.
Somehow, we ended up in
this big park in Louisiana.
[gentle music continues]
[gentle music continues]
[gentle music turns darker]
[pensive music]
[suspenseful music]
[foreboding music]
[suspenseful music]
[suspenseful music continues]
Then I fed on his
meat for a month.
After that, I felt,
I don't know,
happy.
It was like all the evil
in his soul had fused
with my flesh and my bones
and gave me strength.
Like a new life.
Purpose.
Ash, I'm sorry.
There's no reason to be sorry.
She's gone and nothing and no
one is gonna bring her back.
[Mark sniffs]
Ash.
I'm really glad you
opened up to me.
I know this is
all super messy.
I really like spending
time with you.
I'm so...
Never mind.
You're so what?
I'm just so
grateful that we met.
[lips smacking]
You really like
spending time with me?
Yeah, I do.
[lips smack]
[Ash sighs]
[phone vibrating]

Shit.

[water splashing]
Oh, fuck!
[phone vibrating]
[phone chimes]
Hi, Dr. Klein!
Hi, Mark.
Sorry, I, I completely
spaced on our appointment.
It's okay.
Why are you wet?
I was working out,
and I took a shower and,
just health and fitness.
-I see .
-[Mark chuckles]
How you been?
You missed a session last week.
Um, I was busy with work.
Are you in a
safe space to talk?
Yeah, um...
Actually, I'm at,
I'm at Ash's place.
So I can assume
she called you?
You were right, I, uh,
think she likes me.
How does she make you feel?
Uh.
Excited.
Happy.
Scared.
Can I ask why are
you feeling scared?
Um.
Yeah, ask yourself,
is there really
anything to be afraid of
in this relationship?
Or is it the idea
of the relationship
[Dr. Klein] that's causing you
to feel anxious and afraid?
I guess, I just.
I don't know why she likes me
and why she's let
me into her life.
I just feel like I'm in a dream.
And, and eventually,
dream Ash is gonna
realize how pathetic I am.
[Dr. Klein chuckles softly]
I hear how afraid
you are to be alone,
and I want you
to know that's very,
that's very normal.
[ominous music]
[Dr. Klein speaks in slowmo]
Mark, are you listening?
Uh, yeah, um.
I, uh, actually, um, there's a,
I have a phone
call from my work.
I have to, um, I have to go.
I'll talk to you next week, bye!
[door creaking]
[door clatters]
[footsteps tapping]
Hey there, sleepyhead.
Hey!
[Ash moans]
Thanks for letting me
stay over last night.
Of course.
Thanks for letting me
unload all that onto you.
Why don't you unload those
groceries on me, m'lady!
Did you just call me, m'lady.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
That was.
[both chuckle]
My bad.
[plastic rustles]
[refrigerator door thuds]
I'm craving something sweet!
[customers chattering]
[upbeat music]
[glass clinks]
So.
So?
You free to help me tonight?
I, I'm sorry, I can't, um.
What's up with you
apologizing so much?
What?
Why are you apologizing?
If you can, you can.
If you can't, you can't.
There's no reason to be sorry.
[glasses clinking]
Well-
--Or you just, you
say sorry a lot.
I'm, I'm supposed to see
Mav tonight for dinner, but
I can reschedule for tomorrow.
Attaboy.
The guy we're seeing tonight,
I've been trying to meet up
with him for a long time.
Real scumfuck.
Got away with molesting
five kids in high school
because he was a minor.
Continues to rape and
assault women at bars, shows,
you name it.
[pensive music]
[birds chirping]
[footsteps tapping]
[dog tag clinking]
[dog barks]
[dog tag clinking]
[sighs] So.
Game plan.
What do you need me to do?
You remember the signal?
You're gonna
laugh a little loud.
I will cackle.
I'll overreact to a
joke with a cackle
or cackle out of nowhere.
Copy on the cackle.
Show up at the Scorpion Cafe
no later than 1 am
wearing all black.
Make sure no one sees you.
Wait 'til you see us leave.
All right.
I am gonna go get changed,
but see you later, Brain Damage.
[lips smack]
[birds chirping]
[baseball bat thuds]
All right, that's what
I'm talking about, buddy!
Yeah, that's how you
win championships!
[phone ringing]
[Maverick chuckles]
And suddenly, the ghost appears.
[Mark sighs]
Dude.
Are you okay?
You sound sick or something.
I'm, uh, I'm just in
really deep with Ash.
Smash has you lovesick, huh?
I'm not in love
with her, I'm just-
Just what? [sighs]
Being an asshole and
ignoring my calls?
I'm, I'm, I'm
sorry, I, I just.
I'm spending a lot of
time with her, and,
she's been showing me a
lot of new things and like,
new parts of myself.
So, is she like a goth chick
who thinks she's a vampire
and has like a wall of sex toys
and like a dungeon or something?
Yeah.
Uh, you could call
her ex, experimental.
I'm just a little overwhelmed.
Well, don't hold
back on telling me
about all her
kinky stuff tonight
when you come over
for family dinner.
That's actually
why I called.
I mean, don't talk
about Smash's sex dungeons
in front of the kids,
wait till after we're done
eating, for God's sakes.
I'm sorry, I
can't hang tonight.
I've, I've got to help Ash
with one of her mukbangs.
R.I.P.
All right.
Since I'm a good brother and
I actually care about you,
I won't hold it
against for bailing.
Thanks, man.
No prob, Marky Mark,
it's what I'm here for.
Catch you later.
-[baseball thuds]
-[crowd cheers and claps]
That's my boy!
All right, here we go!
[birds chirping]
[Mark sighs softly]
[Steve chuckling]
-[Steve gasps]
-[Ash chuckles]
Uh.
How old are you, anyway?
[sighs] I'm old enough.
Oh, come on, I promise
I'm not gonna tell no one.
You're not really 20, are you?
Maybe I'm not.
[both chuckling]
You're a very, very
bad girl, aren't you?
[chuckles] No,
silly, I'm a good girl.
-No, you're not!
-[Ash groans]
You're bad.
[groans] Stop
it, what you doing?
Come on.
Dressed like that, you're
basically asking for it.
Now, let Papa Steve show
you what a real man is like.
[Ash groaning]
[Ash grunts]
[body thuds]
-[Steve grunts]
-[Ash groans]
[body thuds]
[gasps] Stop, stop!
Oh, yeah cry all you want.
This isn't gonna end
well for you little girl.
More like this isn't gonna
end well for you, scum fuck.
-[Ash cackling]
-[upbeat music]
[Ash grunts]
[footsteps running]
[Mark grunts]
-[body thuds]
-[Mark groans]
[upbeat music continues]
There's a look that
you get sometimes
Like a spider
waiting for a fly
Oh, I can see it
burning in your eyes
And I know something
is about to die
I've been thinking
about the day I met you
And the way you
crashed into my life
Nothing in this
world is ever so easy
Makes me think that's
something isn't right
So tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me, tell me, baby
How you in a sad flood
Tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me, tell me, baby
How you wanna sad song
Something's great about
you disposition
Like a heart of
getting in position
Like you'd trying
to decide to kill me
[upbeat music]
Wow, this is so much
more fun with you.
[Mark] Oh, really?
Yeah.
You got something,
something special.
[Mark chuckles]
-[Ash chuckles]
-I don't know about that,
but you make everything fun.
[sighs] Even this.
Mark?
Yes?
I just...
[Ash exhales softly]
You just what?
I, I feel really happy
when I'm around you...
But.
But?
[Ash sighs]
When are we going to...
When are we gonna what?
When are we going to...
You know.
What?
God, don't make me say
it out loud. [chuckles]
When are we gonna what?
When are you gonna fuck me?
[Mark sighs and chuckles]
I guess we have been
taking it slow in that respect.
I mean, I, I like foreplay,
but eventually, it's
gotta lead to something.
[pensive music]
[lips smacking]
Are you sure about me?
Don't make me
regret being so sure.
[lips smacking]
[pensive music continues]
[Ash moaning]
[lips smacking]
[pensive music continues]
[Ash moaning]
[pensive music continues]
[lips smacking]
[both moaning and panting]
Mark!
Mark.
I.
I love you!
I love you.
[Ash moaning and panting]
[Ash moans]
[pensive music continues]
Hey, what's the
rush, Brain Damage?
You don't have to put your
clothes back on so fast.
I just feel more comfortable
when I'm not letting
it all hang out.
Come on.
You look great.
Seriously, you should
be naked more often.
You're a hunk. [chuckles]
Did you mean what you said?
What did I say?
That you loved me?
[Ash chuckles softly]
Um.
I mean, I didn't...
I didn't mean to say it just
then it sort of came out
when I, you know.
It happens sometimes.
I just get caught up
in the moment and...
Yeah.
This has happened
more than once?
Why?
What, what does that matter?
It doesn't.
I'm sorry I asked.
No, you're not.
I'm not what?
You're not sorry.
You throw that word around so
much, it loses its meaning.
[shirt rustling]
Shouldn't have asked.
You know, I, I didn't mean it.
It just came out.
And who cares how many
times it's happened before?
Like what, what sort of
difference does that make?
Maybe I should go.
Seriously?
Yeah, maybe you should go.
[dramatic music]
You got what you wanted, right?
You know that's
not what I'm about.
[plastic curtain rustles]
[door thudding]
Mark!
Mark, come on, man, open the
door, I know you're in there.
[door thudding]
Open the fucking door,
man, this ain't funny!
[doorknob rattles]
All right.
You gave me no choice, buddy.
I'm coming in.
[door thudding]
[door creaks]
-[Maverick groans]
-[door thuds]
God, did something die in here?
[ominous music]
Hello?
[footsteps tapping]
Where are you?
Hey!
[ominous music continues]
Mark?
[door creaks]
Holy shit.
What happened to you, man?
I'm fine.
I've been calling you nonstop,
and all I get is radio silence.
I even called Yellow Mitten
yesterday looking for you,
and lo and behold, they
fired you two weeks ago.
What the fuck is going on, dude?
[chair creaks]
I just...
I really messed things up.
Clearly.
I had everything
and I, I blew it.
Well, I mean, I would have
quit Yellow Mitten years ago
if I were you, but-
She told me she loved me,
and I freaked out.
Huh?
With Ash!
She told you she loves you?
Wow, she really is crazy.
She took it back.
But, I think she meant it.
And you know what?
What?
I think I love her too.
And I freaked out,
and I panicked,
and I ran.
Look at me sitting here.
I wanna be with her.
She's really special.
Yeah, yeah, she's special
and it's nice to see
you commit for once.
So, the real question is.
Yes, yes.
We fucked, okay?
Are you happy?
[Maverick laughs]
You can be such an asshole.
Oh, I
enjoy being an asshole.
You, on the other hand, clearly
don't enjoy being a pussy.
Maybe you should stop
feeling sorry for yourself
and text her back.
You're right.
What am I doing?
I need to see her.
I need to see her now.
Uh.
Uh, yeah, uh, [chuckles]
hey, that's, uh,
that's, that's nice and all,
but maybe you should take
a shower or something
before you go running
off back to Smash.
You smell bad, real bad.
You might be right about that.
I know I'm right.
And, hey, I'm glad that
you're alive and well-ish.
Thanks for being
there for me, Mav.
You're my little brother,
and I do think it's kind of cool
that you found someone to
consistently bing bong.
[Mark chuckles]
I'm gonna pretend you
didn't just say bing bong.
I'm really excited for
you to meet her, dude.
Same, though she might
have second thoughts
about being with you after
she gets a load of me.
I'm just joshing you, bro.
[Mark chuckles]
I got my own date
to tend to tonight.
Jacuzzi with Jessica?
Something like that.
I'm not even gonna
ask. [chuckles]
Probably best you don't.
So, here's what we're gonna do.
You're gonna clean
yourself up, eat something,
and let me how things go.
[floor creaks]
[Maverick chuckles]
[sighs] I'm sorry, um.
[Ash] Why are you here?
I, I know that
was stupid of me.
I understand if you don't
wanna talk to me anymore
after what I did, I
would totally get it.
No, I.
I don't want that.
Why did you leave?
[sighs] I don't know, um.
I've just messed up a lot of
things with people and, and
sabotaged a lot
of relationships by,
by shutting down or
running away and I just-
I don't...
I don't wanna hear about
you and other girls.
I just wanna know
that you're mine.
I...
I just don't wanna mess
things up with you.
You wanna be with me?
Yes.
We'll take care of each other.
Through all of it,
through thick and thin.
I'll always take care of you.
[knife scrapes]
Give me your hand.
-[knife slices]
-[Mark gasps]
-[knife slices]
-[Ash gasps]
You promise?
I promise.
-[lips smacking]
-[both panting]
[Ash exhales]
Can we just relax
tonight and hang out,
watch a movie or something?
I just...
I found this zombie
movie called Zom-bees.
[Ash chuckles]
I just, I just rented it.
No.
No, we, we can't
watch a movie tonight.
We have really important
business to attend to.
I'm really gonna need you
to have my back, okay?
Yeah, whatever you need.
[sofa creaks]
[ominous music]
[upbeat music]
[perfume hissing]
You're ready?
Where do you want me to hide?
Just go in the back.
Wait for the cackle.
I'll be right here.
[lips smack]
[upbeat music continues]
[Ash exhales]
[cabinet door clicks and thuds]
[door knocks]
[upbeat music continues]
[door clicks and creaks]
[ominous music]
Well, hello, gorgeous.
[Ash] Hey, hot stuff.
[footsteps tapping]
[gentle music]
[both chuckling]
You look even better, IRL.
You're not too bad
yourself, big guy.
[Ash chuckles]
[Maverick chuckles]
You know, we do have this
whole place to ourselves.
[Maverick] Oh, lucky me.
[Ash chuckling]
-[lips smacking]
-[Ash moaning]
I don't know what it is.
You're just so familiar to me.
Oh, yeah?
[Ash chuckles]
Oh, yeah.
I feel like.
I don't know, I've seen
you somewhere before?
Might be from your dreams.
[glass shatters]
[ominous music]
[belt clicking]
[zipper rasps]
Or maybe your nightmares.
[clothes rustling]
[ominous music]
[Mark] Maverick?
In my room, in my room
Mark!
What the fuck are
you doing here?
You shouldn't be here.
I shouldn't be here?
You shouldn't be
here, this is my date!
This, this isn't happening.
-[Ash grunts]
-[Maverick groans]
-[Ash grunts]
-[Maverick groans]
Oh, stop, please,
please, please.
Stop?
He's my, he's-
Did you see what he
was just doing to me?
You're telling me to stop?
He's, he's my brother!
-[Mark sighs]
-What?
[Mark panting]
Look, he's my brother.
Look.
It doesn't fucking matter
if he's your brother, okay?
He's here, he just
tried to rape me.
He knows where I live,
he has to die, Mark.
[stammers] No,
no, no, he's not,
he's not one of the bad guys.
[stammers] We all just,
please, let's just talk to him,
just talk to him, and [stammers]
he won't, he won't tell anybody!
He won't tell anyone
about this, I promise.
Help me get him
in the basement.
[ominous music]
[footsteps tapping]
Is it true?
What the fuck
is going on, dude?
Tell me,
is it true?
Are you sick?
I can explain, Mark.
Christ, it is true.
I'll tell you all about
what's fact and fiction
as soon as you untie me.
No, no, tell me now.
Have you raped anybody?
Depends on how
you define rape.
Are you serious?
Have you, have you
killed anybody?
[footsteps tapping]
To be fair, I onl-
Answer the question.
[footsteps tapping]
You're gonna choose
this bitch over me?
Your own flesh and blood!
How dare you call her that!
You should see the filthy
things she posts online.
She's practically
begging men to rail her.
Face it, Mark, you're
with an E-Whore!
-[hand slaps]
-[Maverick groans]
[Maverick panting]
Mark knows what I do online.
He knows it's all for the cause.
It's all to nail
despicable people like you.
Mark!
Mark, come on, man.
I practically raised you
after Mom and Dad died.
Please, please stop.
I took care of us,
I took care of you!
And I'm still taking
care of you to this day.
You don't wanna kill me.
You know it and I know it.
So, so untie me and let's leave.
[Mark] Please, stop!
This girl is a lunatic.
She's lying to you,
she's the killer, not me!
Shut up!
I knew she was crazy,
I fucking knew it!
Kill him!
From the moment you
told me about her.
Mark.
[eerie music]
[Mark panting]
Mark.
Don't you love me, Mark?
Because
if you loved me
you would kill him.
Don't listen to her.
She doesn't love you.
Look at her!
Look at you!
How could someone like her
actually ever be into someone
like you?
[eerie music continues]
No, no, no, no,
Mark, we're family!
We're family!
[Mark sobs]
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
[Maverick] No!
[eerie music intensifies]
[tape ripping]
No, what the
fuck are you doing?
Mark?
He's family!
[kick thuds]
-[Mark groaning]
-[suspenseful music]
God, you moron!
-[body thuds]
-[Mark groans]
[Mark groaning]
-[Maverick groans]
-[body thuds]
[Maverick grunting]
[Maverick screaming]
[Maverick groaning]
You bitch!
I'm gonna tear your eyes
clean out of their sockets
and fuck your empty,
useless skull!
[Maverick groaning]
-[flesh squelching]
-[Maverick screaming]
[Ash spits]
[Maverick screaming]
-[suspenseful music]
-[Maverick groaning]
You dumb, disgusting,
worthless, fuck toy!
You wanted this
close contact, huh?
You thought I would
just be another bimbo?
Another name in the paper?
Another set of holes
for you to ruin?
[Maverick groans]
You remember that 12-year-old
you dumped by the highway
after you used her?
Or that 16-year-old
that you dismembered
and left in a ditch?
How about those corpses
you dug up and defiled?
I am not worthless.
You are worthless.
I can feel the life draining
out of you, [laughs]
and it feels so fucking good!
[Ash cackling]
[Ash screaming]
[Ash panting]
-[object thuds]
-[body thuds]
[Maverick wheezing]
Run, Mav!
Run!
[Maverick groaning]
-Ash, Ash, Ash, Ash.
-[Ash groans]
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
He's my family, he's,
he's, he's my family.
I couldn't do it.
You two are all I have,
he's, he's all I have.
-[hand slaps]
-[Ash grunts]
I can't fucking believe you.
You're not sorry.
You were never sorry.
If you were, you
would have killed him!
-[suspenseful music]
-[Ash sobbing]
You're a liar.
You'll never love me
like I loved you.
I would have done
anything for you.
Anything!
And you let him go, you let
that filthy child fucker go.
And now I know
that I can never trust
you or anyone ever again.
-[ax thudding]
-[Ash grunting]
You're just like
the rest of them.
-[ax thudding]
-[Ash grunting]
-Deceitful.
-[Mark groans]
Depraved.
Dead.
[Ash crying]
[Mark groans]
I loved you, Ash.
[Ash sobs]
Mark, Mark, Mark!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
Mark, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
[Ash crying]
[lips smacking]
She walks a crooked
little path alone
Alone
She leaves
The part of her
that feels at home
At home
She moves through the crowd
She'd rather escape
She wracks her brain
For the right thing to say
But it doesn't really matter
Nobody listens anyway
[gentle techno music]
She walks a crooked
little path alone
[gentle techno music]
[techno music fades out]
[suspenseful music]
[rabbit thuds]
[gentle music]
Secret heart
My crippling anxiety
And I'm paranoid
Whenever fucking strangers
Glance at me
There's an ache in my head
And that's when
I tend to forget
'Cause sometimes
lovin' hurts
[gentle music continues]
[soft rock music]
[door creaks]
[door bells chime]
[footsteps tapping]
[door bells chime]
[packet rustling]
[footsteps tapping]
[wind whooshes]
And I was the last to know
Like an animal
It's the end of the world
But you give me a life
You gave me your love
[cash register clicking]
[drawer thuds]
[footsteps tapping]
[bag crunches]
Oops, sorry.
[Ash chuckles]
Here you go.
Oh, my God, thanks.
These are my favorite flavor.
Really?
It's mine too.
No way?
They're kind of weird,
don't you think?
Yeah. [laughs awkwardly]
Uh, I'm running late
for an appointment.
At 2 am?
[Mark] Uh, yep.
Okay.
[barcode scanner beeps]
[Ash chuckles]
-[gentle music]
-[footsteps tapping]
[singer vocalizing]
-[tires screeching]
-[car crashes]
[pensive music]
[packet rustles]
[ominous music]
[Ash gasps]
Oh, my God. [sighs]
[footsteps tapping]
Thank God you are okay.
And no fever. Great.
What happened?
[Ash] Please
don't call the cops.
No, wait, I'm not-
I mean, it was so dark
and I didn't see you
and then all of a sudden, you
were, like, right behind me.
I swear, I was only going,
like, five miles an hour.
And then I saw that metal
plate thing on your head
and thought maybe
I had done that,
even though there's no
way I could have.
Thank God you're okay.
I'm fine.
I, um, my head hurts a little.
Oh.
Let me get you
something for that.
Don't move a muscle!
[bed creaks]
[mysterious music]
All I could find is
extra strength aspirin.
-[Mark gasps]
-[bed thuds]
Oh, that's, that's
great, thanks.
Wait!
You can't take that
on an empty stomach.
[Mark spits]
[gentle music]
This is...
Thank you.
Um, but actually, I'm trying out
the whole Paleo caveman thing,
so I, I've got
some stuff to lose.
Well, I think you look great.
And besides, like, food is fuel.
I don't know about you
but I'm starving.
[teeth chomping]
Come on, don't make this weird.
[Mark chuckles]
[teeth chomping]
This is amazing.
Seriously.
It's so.
[teeth chomping]
It's like juicy. [chuckles]
[Ash chuckles]
You know what I just realized?
What?
I don't even know your name.
[Ash chuckles]
Oh.
Yeah, right.
That's something that
people do, right?
Introduce themselves.
Um.
I'm Ash. [chuckles]
Uh.
Um.
[both chuckle]
I'm Mark.
It's nice to meet you, Ash.
[food clatters]
So...
What's actually up with that
metal thing in your head?
I was in a car
accident when I was a kid.
Of course, I hit the
guy with brain damage!
Nothing a little therapy
and booze can't fix.
You know what, it is
actually kind of cool.
[lips smack]
-Can I like-
-Um.
[Ash chuckles]
Sure.
[metal clanking]
Um.
What do you do?
Mm.
A lot of internet things.
What do you do
do for, like, work?
It's a little embarrassing.
[teeth chomping]
It can't be more
embarrassing than what I do.
Oh, really?
-[food crunches]
-Mm-hmm.
Oh, okay, wait, let me guess.
You...
You're a coder.
No wait, okay.
You are a professional gamer.
No, those are both
[Ash chuckles]
cool things.
Um.
I'm, um,
a customer service guy for
a meal delivery service.
Which one?
You know Yellow Mitten?
Yeah, of course,
I love their stuff.
They actually sponsor me.
[chip crackles]
Please tell me you're
not an influencer.
Mm.
[food crackles]
Not exactly.
Well, kind of.
Okay, okay.
You told me.
So I'm gonna tell you.
I eat stuff
online for people,
but I don't usually, like,
show my whole face or
anything like that.
You mukbang?
[screams] Oh, my God!
I can't believe you
actually know what that is!
Well, what's
more embarrassing?
The one who mukbangs
or the one who watches
the mukbang? [chuckles]
Oh, definitely the one
who watches the mukbang.
-Ouch.
-Mm-hmm.
[both chuckling]
No, but, like.
Seriously, I think
that is so cool
that you understand what I do.
Like, most people either
don't know what it is
or they think it's
a piece of cake.
You're the director,
a writer, a producer, a chef,
a camera op.
An actress!
I mean, I could
never do that.
Exactly.
Seriously though, this is.
How did you cook this?
This is, like, beyond
good. [chuckles]
Secret family recipe.
If I told you I'd
have to kill you.
[Mark chuckles softly]
[Ash chuckles softly]
[Radio Reporter] The body
of yet another young woman
has been found on
the side of I-25.
She's not been-
[switch clicking]
[crickets chirping]
[Mark] Her voice is
just a bit grating.
[sighs] Well, thanks for-
-Hitting you with my car?
[both laughing]
[Mark] Yeah.
Any time.
Maybe not
any time. [chuckles]
[lips smack]
I hope that we
can do this again
under less dramatic
circumstances.
[paper rustling]
So what's your
number, Brain Damage?
It's...
[pen scratching]
[paper ripping]
I'll call you, okay?
[car door clicks]
[vehicles whooshing]
[car door thuds]
[Mark sighs]
[phone ringing]
What's up little bro?
Mav, [chuckles] you won't
believe what just happened.
Oh, yeah?
I met this girl last night
at Save-More and she's amazing.
Oh, really? What
happened to Sarah?
I know Sarah's friends
with Jessica and all,
but I'm sorry, she's
kinda boring.
Girls don't need to be
interesting for you to fuck.
[Mark chuckles softly]
I know, but she's.
This girl's just,
she's different.
Yeah, the '80s called,
they want their lines back.
[chuckles] Come on, man.
I'm just trying to help
you out like I always do.
[Maverick] You gotta stop being
so Goddamn sensitive.
Girls... girls like sensitive.
Yeah, says the cuck
to the married man.
Hey, can we circle back, buddy?
[footsteps tapping]
Kind of busy.
[chair creaks]
[Mark] It saddens and
shocks me to hear
that you were feeling unwell
after a Yellow
Mitten meal, Ma'am.
[Customer] Well,
the parsley was wilted
and there wasn't
enough sour cream.
Also, how could
you possibly think
that red pepper flakes are
necessary in a meal like this?
[Mark] Well, ma'am, the
instructions for the enchiladas
do specify that the red
pepper flakes are optional.
[Customer] I didn't ask
you if they were optional.
I'm telling you, they
were unnecessary.
[Mark sighs]
I'm sorry-
-[Customer] Just refund
me on the whole box .
[Mark sighs]
Ma'am, for the price of
the red pepper f-flakes,
the best I can offer you
is one free meal credit.
[Customer] One meal?
If you don't refund me,
I'm canceling my account
and telling every
single person I know
that Yellow Mitten is
a disgusting company
with disgusting food
[stomach growling]
and that you're all
disgusting crooks.
[sighs] Ma'am,
-I...
-[Customer] You what?
[stomach growling]
-I...
I'm sorry.
[Mark vomiting]
[Customer] Oh, my God,
you're vomiting, aren't you?
See, Yellow Mitten food
isn't just tasteless,
it makes people sick.
[Ash] Mm!
[food being chewed]
[mysterious music]
Unplug, big boy.
Why watch when you can
have the real thing?
[bell clangs]
[mysterious music continues]
[footsteps tapping]
[jewels clink]
Is this the only offering you
brought your master today?
[mysterious music continues]
[jewels clattering]
[ominous music]
I would give any part
of myself for you, master!
[Mark screaming]
[Mark laughing]
[Mark startles]
[Ash] Oh, my God, these
meatballs are so juicy!
[Mark groans]
[laptop thuds]
[Mark sighs]
[call beeping]
[Dr. Klein] Hi, Mark!
Hi, Dr. Klein.
So, what's been going
on in your life this week?
I got hit by a car
but it was by this girl,
and we hung out.
Um.
She gave me this after.
Gel pen is a nice touch.
What do you think it means?
What do you want it to mean?
[Mark] I don't know,
I guess,
[Mark vomiting]
I really like her.
[toothbrush scraping]
[Dr. Klein] Are you
gonna contact her?
[Mark] No, I
don't know, I just.
I want her to call me first.
[Dr. Klein] So you
could assume, perhaps,
that since she gave
you her number,
maybe she wants
you to contact her.
[Mark] Maybe she's
just being nice.
[Dr. Klein] Let me
ask you something, Mark.
When do you feel it's the
right time to get attached?
[laptop thuds]
[Mark] I don't really
like getting attached at all
to be completely
honest with you.
[Dr. Klein] And why is that?
Mark?
[phone thuds]
[Mark] It's easier that way.
[bed creaks]
[TV clicks]
[Man On TV] The operating
room is no place to experiment.
[doorbell dings]
[Maverick] What's
the password?
Funny password.
[alarm buzzes]
Thanks, Mav.
Cheers.
[glasses clink]
Cheers.
[Mark coughs]
I know you probably got
a million things to do.
Ah, well, you know,
things with the Swedes
have cooled down
since the last deal we made, so.
So.
70-hour weeks
versus 60-hour weeks.
Mr. Big Shot working
himself to the bone.
Work talk is so boring.
It's not every day that my
little bro falls in love.
I'm not in love, I just...
I need some advice.
Well, usually
you've sabotaged it
or run away at this
point, so which is it?
No running away,
just ghosting.
From you or her?
Her.
[scoffs] Commonplace.
Yeah.
So what's so special
about this one, huh?
She's unique.
We're all unique.
Yeah, but she's,
she's different.
She's, she's kind of off in
a captivating, quirky way.
Code for crazy.
[Mark chuckles]
What does she do anyways?
She's a mukbanger.
A what banger?
A mukbanger.
She eats food on camera,
a lot of it.
It's, it's really lucrative.
What even is a mukbang?
It's a South Korean thing,
you wouldn't understand.
Uh, only one of us
has been to South Korea
and it's not you.
That only makes
it more embarrassing
that you don't know
what a mukbanger is.
I'm more into real
banging versus muck banging.
Christ. [chuckles]
[Jessica hums]
Oh, hello, Mark.
[door thuds]
I didn't realize
you had company.
Not company, honey, family.
I see that now.
Why don't you run along to
the jacuzzi without me, dear?
I'm having bro time.
[door clatters]
What's up with her?
I kind of forgot that
this is our date night.
Oh, I can go if
you want, dude.
N-no, no, stay, please, this
is so much more entertaining.
I don't wanna get in the
way of your love life or...
[Maverick scoffs]
Love!
You think that's what this is?
I guess.
If it weren't for her kids,
do you think I'd still be here?
Honestly?
Seriously.
I know you're in
a tricky situation
with the kids and everything.
Can we talk about this
another time, please?
Yeah, whatever man, yeah.
[hand tapping]
So, I wanna hear more about
this manic pixie dream girl.
-Her name is Ash.
-Smash, right?
She ghosted you?
Sort of.
[Maverick sips]
For how long?
Like a week.
Not tragic... yet.
When is it considered tragic?
I give it maybe two weeks.
She's busy banging.
Mukbanging.
[Maverick] I know what you need.
[tray clatters]
[Maverick sniffing]
Huh?
[chuckles] I'm okay.
[Maverick sniffing]
Oh. [exhales hardly]
You need a lay and I'm not
talking about the chip, buddy!
You are disgusting!
I'm right, you
barely know this girl.
Not yet.
Uh, [snaps] call
that, that basic girl,
that dull, pale, giggly one.
She's into you.
-You mean your secretary?
-Yeah, yeah.
Ja-Janine.
Isn't her name Jenny?
Whatever.
This is not a good idea.
This was a great idea!
I know, right? [chuckles]
[Jenny chuckles]
-[Mark chuckles]
-[Jenny sips]
[chip crackles]
So one time, I was in
an improv show and,
[chip crackles]
there was this
crazy chase scene.
So,
we lived in Ridgewood
for about five years.
And we never saw our neighbors.
[chip crackles]
And then.
[Jenny speaking indistinctly]
And we just said,
somebody's really
got to clean that up!
[Jenny chuckles]
I'll be right back.
I gotta pee.
[crowd chattering]
[phone chimes]
[pensive music]
[footsteps tapping]
I got another round.
Oh, wow.
You okay?
Actually, no.
I'm really sorry, I,
I think I have to run.
You, you are really
sweet and pretty
and I would be lucky to
be on this date with you.
It's just,
I sort of have a
girlfriend. [chuckles]
Sort of?
I mean, no, but I want to.
It's complicated, um,
but it wouldn't be
right for me to sit here
and pretend like I'm not
distracted when I am.
I hope this wasn't
weird of me to say.
It was weird,
but thanks for not
wasting my time, I guess?
Thank you for being
so understanding,
and, um, here.
Oh!
Last round is on me!
[crowd chattering]
[crickets chirping]
[door creaking]
Hello?
[ominous music]
[footsteps tapping]
Hello?
[crickets chirping]
[switch clicks]
Ash?
[blanket rustles]
Hey, Mark.
[Mark] Jesus!
It's me.
God.
[Mark chuckles]
[Mark] God, is
that really you?
[switch clicks]
Tell me all your sins.
I pick my nose.
Yeah?
You ever eat it?
No, I mean, yeah, when
I was a kid. [chuckles]
Same.
What are you doing?
[door creaks and shuts]
Thinking.
About?
You.
And some other stuff, too.
Really?
Well, yeah.
I hit you with my car!
I was wondering if
you were like, okay.
I'm fine.
I was at Save-More,
and I was hoping I would
run into you again.
[chuckles] Okay, well, not
literally, but, you know.
[Mark chuckles]
You wanna come in here?
Yeah.
[both chuckle]
Tag, you're it.
[Ash chuckles]
[Mark chuckles]
-[Mark groans]
-[body thuds]
[Ash chuckles]
-Are you okay?
-Yeah, I'm okay.
-Are you okay?
-I'm sorry.
Yeah, I'm fine I think.
[Ash chuckles]
[switch clicks]
Whoa.
You know,
[switch clicks]
clumsiness can be cured.
[switch clicks]
Oh, yeah?
-[Mark chuckles]
-Yeah.
You just have to, like,
actively fight against it.
Like, look in the mirror,
and tell yourself,
"I'm not clumsy, I'm not
clumsy, I'm not clumsy."
And eventually you
won't be clumsy.
I used to drop
things constantly.
I was always tripping,
falling over.
Turns out,
I just wasn't really paying
attention most of the time.
So, let me get this straight.
I'm clumsy because you
hit me with your car?
No, you're clumsy because
you can barely get inside
a blanket fort
without almost dying.
Uh.
[both chuckle]
I haven't been in a blanket
fort since I was, like, six.
[Mark chuckles]
Yeah, well, if you could
just try your best not to die
in front of me, if
you can handle that.
-[Ash chuckles]
-[Mark] I'll try.
Thanks.
[Mark sighs]
So, you, you come
in here a lot or?
Yeah, I do.
I always wanted to do
this when I was a kid.
But I couldn't, so.
Now, whenever it feels
like the internet
is taking over my brain,
I build this.
Makes me feel like
a real person again.
[Mark chuckles]
Tell me something
that makes you happy.
Uh.
Um.
Okay.
Uh.
I write movie reviews.
Really?
What kind of movies?
Uh, mostly horror,
like sci-fi, action type stuff.
No way, I love horror!
You do?
Yeah, especially like
B-horror, you know.
Give me all the blood and
guts and sex. [chuckles]
Well, they're about a
lot more than that, though.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, they're,
they're like, about life
and like the human spirit
making something out of nothing.
Hmm.
Never really thought
about it like that before.
Well, maybe we could
watch a movie sometime.
Or like, I'll send you
a review, or whatever.
Yeah, I'd like that.
Cool, cool.
So.
Where are you from?
Um.
Why don't you go first?
Okay, um.
I grew up in Florida,
but I moved here when I was
10 with my brother Maverick,
and we lived in a foster home
after our parents passed away.
Oh, you don't have to
like, talk about that.
It's fine.
It was a car accident.
Same one that gave
me this plate.
But, um.
Yeah, we got messed up.
Maverick, too.
Seems like you two
are really close.
Yeah, we are, um.
He's kind of a jerk,
but he's harmless.
So, yeah,
to answer your original
question, I'm from Florida,
the armpit of America.
And now, it's your turn.
I go, you go.
-[Mark chuckles]
-Um.
Okay.
I'm from Louisiana.
Oh, so we're both
from the South.
Yeah, something like that.
We, we don't
have to like talk,
like talk about it.
No, it's, um,
just today is like a rotten day.
Why?
Today is the anniversary
of my sister's death.
Ash, I'm so sorry.
No, let's like not do that.
Um.
It's fine.
Really, it's fine.
I'm just...
I'm really happy I don't have to
spend today alone, you know?
Can I put my arm around you?
Yeah.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
[Ash chuckles]
[Mark sighs]
Wow,
who knew we were
both so depressing?
I knew I was but
you are... [chuckles]
[lips smack]
[pensive music]
[lips smacking]
[pensive music continues]
-[Mark groans]
-[Ash exhales]
I'm sorry.
-No, it's-
-I'm sorry.
-It's okay.
-I just want,
I just wanna take things slow.
It's okay.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
One, two.
[upbeat music]
One, two.
[hands tapping]
Are we supposed
to be counting?
When I was a kid,
I was convinced that.
What's that?
She's just on fire
Don't worry I can save it
Oh, no, I'm keeping
you up late again.
I don't mind.
I do have to go to work, though.
Right. Yeah, work.
Well, maybe we can
do like a
dinner date, movie date thing.
Name the time and place,
and I will be there.
[upbeat music]
[phone chimes]
It's coming back
-[footsteps tapping]
-[messages popping]
[upbeat music continues]
Shit!
[notebook rustles]
[outgoing call tone]
[Maverick] Make it quick,
I'm about to get a blowie.
Eww, did you just say blowie?
[Maverick] Chop,
chop, man, what's up?
Where's a cool place to
take someone on a date?
I've never been here before,
but I've been trying
to eat more vegan food.
Are you okay?
Do you wanna go somewhere else?
Um. No, I'm, I'm fine, I've just
been on some weird dates here.
Can we like, go inside?
I'm starving.
-[customers chattering]
-[dishes clinking]
Hey.
Hi.
Are you okay?
Did something
happen to your hand?
I'm fine.
That means you're not, though.
I'm fine.
I'm just, like, hungry.
Where's the menu?
Oh, you just have,
you have to scan it.
Yeah, I'm not an idiot.
[customers chattering]
What's your problem?
Nothing, I, I
am just wondering.
Are you always like
this at restaurants?
Like what?
Like all tense
and angry and scary.
And this place, it's just like.
-[table thuds]
-[plate clinks]
[sighs] Whatever, it's fine.
If you wanna leave, we
should, we should leave.
No, we should stay.
I just am like... really hungry
and when I get hungry,
I get "hangry."
And I know that's
a dumb phrase, but it's real,
at least for me.
Will you just do me a favor
and breathe?
[both breathing heavily]
-[door clicks]
-[both chuckle]
What?
You need to go home.
What?
Please go now.
Why?
Just go!
Did I, did I say something or?
No, no, you just...
You can't be seen with me here.
Just.
Can you leave now?
Please?
[ominous music]
[footsteps tapping]
[customers chattering]
[door clicks and creaks]
[downbeat rock music]
[car door thuds]
[Mark gurgling]
[Mark coughs]
It's okay, it's okay!
[rain pattering]
She's too good for you.
[Ash chuckling]
Don't you just love the rain?
[chuckles] I love what the
rain's doing to your clothes.
[both chuckle]
[lips smacking]
[Ash groaning]
Stop!
What?
Come on, babe, I thought
you liked it rough?
Well, I do, but not here.
Hey, you don't get to tell me
where I get to fuck you!
-[hand slaps]
-[ominous music]
[Ash groans]
-[kick thuds]
-[Ash groans]
-[Stefano grunting]
-[Ash groaning]
-[Stefano panting]
-[Ash groaning]
Oh, your skin is so smooth.
-And it's so tight too!
-[Ash groaning]
[ominous music intensifies]
You think you like it rough?
You have no idea
what it's rough is.
[bone cracking]
[Stefano groaning]
-[blood splattering]
-[Ash chuckling]
[Stefano groaning]
Oh, God!
You crazy cunt!
Cunt! [laughs]
How original.
-[Ash spits]
-[Stefano groans]
Remember when you said
you like to deep throat?
I like to deep throat too.
-[Ash grunts]
-[flesh squelches]
[Ash sighs]
-[ominous music]
-[flesh squelching]
Ash?
[Ash growls]
[Ash panting]
[Ash spits]
Mark.
What are you doing here?
I told you to go home.
I was,
I was drinking and then I heard,
I saw what you did to that man.
Fuck.
You're eating him.
Yeah, I didn't really want
you to see me like this.
You gonna help me move the body?
What?
You gonna help me move this?
Uh.
I guess so.
Great.
Thanks.
[rain pattering]
Relax.
It's just a body.
[rain pattering]
[car engine revving]
Holy shit, I think we're good.
I don't see anyone on our tail.
God, I just feel so alive!
-[rock music]
-[Ash panting]
What?
What did you do that for?
Are you serious?
Well, if you're
not gonna talk to me,
we might as well
listen to something.
[Ash sighs]
We're just, you're
just gonna pretend like,
like that was okay?
What does "okay" even mean?
It's the circle of life,
people live and people die.
It's normal.
Normal for who?
Normal for me, and
now normal for you.
You just help me
move a dead body.
You're in this now.
No, no, I'm no, I'm not in.
I'm not in it-
-No?
You wanted to hang out with me?
Get to know me?
Well, this is me, Mark.
Yeah, I want, I, I
wanted to get to know you.
Yeah, not, not hurt anybody,
let alone kill anybody!
Mark, he wasn't just anybody.
How many people
have you done this to?
[rain pattering]
[ominous music]
Come on, like
that really matters.
-[lips smack]
-[Mark sighs]
Please, please, please, I,
I just, uh. [sighs]
Please, I think
after what happened,
I think I deserve to know
what, what is going on, please.
[Ash sighs]
Yeah, okay.
Okay.
I'll tell you when we
get back to my place.
[rain pattering]
[light clicks]
[plastic rustles]
Big boy's gotta go on there.
Earth to Mark.
You okay?
What were in those
tacos the other night?
[Ash chuckles]
Let's talk and work, yeah?
[footsteps tapping]
[ominous music]
Please. I need to know.
Isn't it obvious?
Did you feed me this?
So what if I did?
So what.
[knife clicks]
I bet you don't even know
what hot dogs are made out of.
[knife clicks]
Hot dogs are made out of pork,
and, and beef
trimming, not, not human.
Pork and beef.
Okay, first of all, I
thought you were a foodie.
You should really do your
research on hot dogs.
Second, just relax, okay?
I can explain.
I don't kill just anyone.
What does that even mean?
Who do you kill?
I only kill the people that
society could do without.
The Ted Bundy,
John Wayne Gacy,
Rodney Alcala,
Earl Bradley,
Jeffrey Epstein types.
Except the not so famous guys.
The ones that get away
with doing horrible things
to innocent people scot-free.
Isn't that what
the police are for?
Don't be silly.
[knife clicks]
[ominous music]
[flesh squelching]
Does this have anything
to do with A. Rouge?
What did you say?
A. Rouge?
[knife sheaths]
Don't ever say
that name again.
Sorry, uh... I just, I saw the
picture in your room
with the name on it and I just,
I should have,
I should, I should have
asked you, I don't know.
I read about her.
Alexandra Rouge.
[knife slices]
So what did you find
while you were looking up
my personal information?
Just articles
about her missing,
and her body.
She was in really rough
shape when they found her.
Dead is pretty rough, yeah.
How did you know her?
She was my sister.
You know,
the one that died.
I told you about
her the other night.
-[ominous music]
-[flesh squelches]
I'm sorry, Ash.
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
everyone is so sorry.
But terrible things still
happen every day, don't they?
I guess so.
And nobody really does
anything to help, do they?
No, they just post about
the crimes on social media,
prayers for their
family, yada, yada, yada
but what does that actually do?
Nothing.
[knife clatters]
[flesh squelches]
[ominous music]
[Ash exhales slowly]
That's my favorite cut.
I don't understand how
you can stomach people.
It's kind of
horrible at first.
But then you can't stop
thinking about it.
Eventually, it's the only thing
that'll make you
feel truly full.
[ominous music continues]
[plastic cover rustling]
Am I next on the menu?
No.
No, no, no, no,
no, silly, God, no!
You're not my taste, remember?
I only kill the bad guys,
rapists and stuff.
You're not a bad guy.
Are you?
[ominous music]
I don't know.
I don't, I don't think so.
-[flesh squelching]
-[ominous music]
[tray clatters]
[refrigerator door thuds]
What?
I'm sorry.
This is just a lot, and,
you're really pretty, and,
a lot prettier than me, and...
Mark.
[lips smacking]
Sorry, I just,
I wanna take things slow.
You're almost too nice.
Well, I don't know about you.
I could use a good shower.
[plastic curtain rustles]
[footsteps tapping]
[water splashing]
Come talk to me.
[Mark groans softly]
Look, I know this
seems like a lot,
but trust me, that man did
not deserve your sympathy.
Maybe he doesn't
deserve my sympathy,
but how, how do you actually
know that he's a bad dude?
There are lots of
forums out there.
I do my research.
[Mark] Forums for what?
Everything.
Abusers, serial killers,
rapists, pedophiles.
[water splashing]
So, you, you actually
have done this a lot? Like...
For real, this is like,
not just like a one time
freak of nature thing?
This is actually your life?
I guess so.
I...
I think I need some
time to process this.
[water splashing]
I'm gonna go home.
[mirror squeaking]
I get it.
Just don't be a ghost.
You're in this now.
First bite!
[food crackling]
Mm!
-[refrigerator door clatters]
-[bottles clinking]
[Mark coughs and spits]
[suspenseful music]
[bottles clinking]
[upbeat music]
Three, two, one, recording!
Hey, all you bangers!
Welcome back to my channel.
I want you, Ash.
[upbeat music continues]
Oh, Mark.
[lips smacking]
-[Mark screeching]
-[flesh squelching]
[Ash moans]
[flesh squelching]
Oh.
Oh, it feels so good!
Mark, yes!
Oh, Mark, yes!
[Ash moaning]
It feels so good!
-[Mark growls]
-[Ash moans]
[upbeat music continues]
You're all I want,
all I want is you!
[Mark screeching]
[Mark coughs]
[Mark chuckling]
[Mark panting]
[Mark chuckles]
You're losing it, buddy.
[Mark chuckles]
[Mark groans softly]
[body thuds]
[upbeat music continues]
[Mark groans and coughs]
[phone vibrating]
Hello?
[Mark groaning]
Something's happening to me.
My body, my body feels like
it's eating itself. [groans]
Sounds like the
hunger is starting.
[Mark] [groans] What
does it mean?
[Ash] Come over tonight.
[groans] Okay. [sobs]
Okay. [groans]
And bring an extra
set of clothes.
We're gonna have
a slumber party.
[phone clatters]
[food crackling]
Mm!
[knuckles rapping]
[Mark panting]
[door creaks open]
Whoo!
You got it bad.
[door creaks]
[ominous music]
[gear squeaking]
[teeth chomping]
[Mark groans]
The first week after
it's bearable but
any longer without it and
then you start to feel it.
[ominous music]
[Mark startles]
Did you know that
when I'm near you
my entire body gets tingly,
hot,
and cold.
[Mark breathing heavily]
[lips smacking]
[both moaning]
-[lips smacking]
-[both moaning]
[Mark groans]
[Mark sighs]
What?
Why'd you stop?
This just doesn't
make any sense.
[Mark breathing heavily]
I'm, I'm eating people.
People with, with jobs
and, and, and hobbies,
and, and friends and family.
[ominous music]
And I like it.
I really like it.
That's fucked.
You ate that
creep from our date.
He doesn't exactly
count as people.
He raped and killed,
like, three girls Mark.
Three young girls.
Get a grip.
Get a grip? [chuckles]
[groans] How are
you not in jail?
Give a girl some credit.
You want some more?
[ominous music]
[Mark groans]
[Mark sighing]
How you holding up?
Still a little weird.
But better.
How are you?
Honestly?
Honestly.
I'm upset you looked up
information about Allie
without asking me first.
Allie?
Alexandra Rouge.
She was Allie to me.
I was just, I wanted
to know more about you.
I would have told
you about Allie
if you had just asked me.
Promise me,
you won't go digging into
my life online anymore.
I promise.
[lips smacking]
Will you tell me about her now?
Okay.
[gentle music]
So,
we never really had parents.
At least not from
what I can remember.
The memories, they
tend to come and go.
Somehow, we ended up in
this big park in Louisiana.
[gentle music continues]
[gentle music continues]
[gentle music turns darker]
[pensive music]
[suspenseful music]
[foreboding music]
[suspenseful music]
[suspenseful music continues]
Then I fed on his
meat for a month.
After that, I felt,
I don't know,
happy.
It was like all the evil
in his soul had fused
with my flesh and my bones
and gave me strength.
Like a new life.
Purpose.
Ash, I'm sorry.
There's no reason to be sorry.
She's gone and nothing and no
one is gonna bring her back.
[Mark sniffs]
Ash.
I'm really glad you
opened up to me.
I know this is
all super messy.
I really like spending
time with you.
I'm so...
Never mind.
You're so what?
I'm just so
grateful that we met.
[lips smacking]
You really like
spending time with me?
Yeah, I do.
[lips smack]
[Ash sighs]
[phone vibrating]

Shit.
[phone vibrating]
[water splashing]
Oh, fuck!
[phone vibrating]
[phone chimes]
Hi, Dr. Klein!
Hi, Mark.
Sorry, I, I completely
spaced on our appointment.
It's okay.
Why are you wet?
I was working out,
and I took a shower and,
just health and fitness.
-I see .
-[Mark chuckles]
How you been?
You missed a session last week.
Um, I was busy with work.
Are you in a
safe space to talk?
Yeah, um...
Actually, I'm at,
I'm at Ash's place.
So I can assume
she called you?
You were right, I, uh,
think she likes me.
How does she make you feel?
Uh.
Excited.
Happy.
Scared.
Can I ask why are
you feeling scared?
Um.
Yeah, ask yourself,
is there really
anything to be afraid of
in this relationship?
Or is it the idea
of the relationship
[Dr. Klein] that's causing you
to feel anxious and afraid?
I guess, I just.
I don't know why she likes me
and why she's let
me into her life.
I just feel like I'm in a dream.
And, and eventually,
dream Ash is gonna
realize how pathetic I am.
[Dr. Klein chuckles softly]
I hear how afraid
you are to be alone,
and I want you
to know that's very,
that's very normal.
[ominous music]
[Dr. Klein speaks in slowmo]
Mark, are you listening?
Uh, yeah, um.
I, uh, actually, um, there's a,
I have a phone
call from my work.
I have to, um, I have to go.
I'll talk to you next week, bye!
[door creaking]
[door clatters]
[footsteps tapping]
Hey there, sleepyhead.
Hey!
[Ash moans]
Thanks for letting me
stay over last night.
Of course.
Thanks for letting me
unload all that onto you.
Why don't you unload those
groceries on me, m'lady!
Did you just call me, m'lady.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
That was.
[both chuckle]
My bad.
[plastic rustles]
[refrigerator door thuds]
I'm craving something sweet!
[customers chattering]
[upbeat music]
[glass clinks]
So.
So?
You free to help me tonight?
I, I'm sorry, I can't, um.
What's up with you
apologizing so much?
What?
Why are you apologizing?
If you can, you can.
If you can't, you can't.
There's no reason to be sorry.
[glasses clinking]
Well-
--Or you just, you
say sorry a lot.
I'm, I'm supposed to see
Mav tonight for dinner, but
I can reschedule for tomorrow.
Attaboy.
The guy we're seeing tonight,
I've been trying to meet up
with him for a long time.
Real scumfuck.
Got away with molesting
five kids in high school
because he was a minor.
Continues to rape and
assault women at bars, shows,
you name it.
[pensive music]
[birds chirping]
[footsteps tapping]
[dog tag clinking]
[dog barks]
[dog tag clinking]
[sighs] So.
Game plan.
What do you need me to do?
You remember the signal?
You're gonna
laugh a little loud.
I will cackle.
I'll overreact to a
joke with a cackle
or cackle out of nowhere.
Copy on the cackle.
Show up at the Scorpion Cafe
no later than 1 am
wearing all black.
Make sure no one sees you.
Wait 'til you see us leave.
All right.
I am gonna go get changed,
but see you later, Brain Damage.
[lips smack]
[birds chirping]
[baseball bat thuds]
All right, that's what
I'm talking about, buddy!
Yeah, that's how you
win championships!
[phone ringing]
[Maverick chuckles]
And suddenly, the ghost appears.
[Mark sighs]
Dude.
Are you okay?
You sound sick or something.
I'm, uh, I'm just in
really deep with Ash.
Smash has you lovesick, huh?
I'm not in love
with her, I'm just-
Just what? [sighs]
Being an asshole and
ignoring my calls?
I'm, I'm, I'm
sorry, I, I just.
I'm spending a lot of
time with her, and,
she's been showing me a
lot of new things and like,
new parts of myself.
So, is she like a goth chick
who thinks she's a vampire
and has like a wall of sex toys
and like a dungeon or something?
Yeah.
Uh, you could call
her ex, experimental.
I'm just a little overwhelmed.
Well, don't hold
back on telling me
about all her
kinky stuff tonight
when you come over
for family dinner.
That's actually
why I called.
I mean, don't talk
about Smash's sex dungeons
in front of the kids,
wait till after we're done
eating, for God's sakes.
I'm sorry, I
can't hang tonight.
I've, I've got to help Ash
with one of her mukbangs.
R.I.P.
All right.
Since I'm a good brother and
I actually care about you,
I won't hold it
against for bailing.
Thanks, man.
No prob, Marky Mark,
it's what I'm here for.
Catch you later.
-[baseball thuds]
-[crowd cheers and claps]
That's my boy!
All right, here we go!
[birds chirping]
[Mark sighs softly]
[Steve chuckling]
-[Steve gasps]
-[Ash chuckles]
Uh.
How old are you, anyway?
[sighs] I'm old enough.
Oh, come on, I promise
I'm not gonna tell no one.
You're not really 20, are you?
Maybe I'm not.
[both chuckling]
You're a very, very
bad girl, aren't you?
[chuckles] No,
silly, I'm a good girl.
-No, you're not!
-[Ash groans]
You're bad.
[groans] Stop
it, what you doing?
Come on.
Dressed like that, you're
basically asking for it.
Now, let Papa Steve show
you what a real man is like.
[Ash groaning]
[Ash grunts]
[body thuds]
-[Steve grunts]
-[Ash groans]
[body thuds]
[gasps] Stop, stop!
Oh, yeah cry all you want.
This isn't gonna end
well for you little girl.
More like this isn't gonna
end well for you, scum fuck.
-[Ash cackling]
-[upbeat music]
[Ash grunts]
[footsteps running]
[Mark grunts]
-[body thuds]
-[Mark groans]
[upbeat music continues]
There's a look that
you get sometimes
Like a spider
waiting for a fly
Oh, I can see it
burning in your eyes
And I know something
is about to die
I've been thinking
about the day I met you
And the way you
crashed into my life
Nothing in this
world is ever so easy
Makes me think that's
something isn't right
So tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me, tell me, baby
How you in a sad flood
Tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me, tell me, baby
How you wanna sad song
Something's great about
you disposition
Like a heart of
getting in position
Like you'd trying
to decide to kill me
[upbeat music]
Wow, this is so much
more fun with you.
[Mark] Oh, really?
Yeah.
You got something,
something special.
[Mark chuckles]
-[Ash chuckles]
-I don't know about that,
but you make everything fun.
[sighs] Even this.
Mark?
Yes?
I just...
[Ash exhales softly]
You just what?
I, I feel really happy
when I'm around you...
But.
But?
[Ash sighs]
When are we going to...
When are we gonna what?
When are we going to...
You know.
What?
God, don't make me say
it out loud. [chuckles]
When are we gonna what?
When are you gonna fuck me?
[Mark sighs and chuckles]
I guess we have been
taking it slow in that respect.
I mean, I, I like foreplay,
but eventually, it's
gotta lead to something.
[pensive music]
[lips smacking]
Are you sure about me?
Don't make me
regret being so sure.
[lips smacking]
[pensive music continues]
[Ash moaning]
[lips smacking]
[pensive music continues]
[Ash moaning]
[pensive music continues]
[lips smacking]
[both moaning and panting]
Mark!
Mark.
I.
I love you!
I love you.
[Ash moaning and panting]
[Ash moans]
[pensive music continues]
Hey, what's the
rush, Brain Damage?
You don't have to put your
clothes back on so fast.
I just feel more comfortable
when I'm not letting
it all hang out.
Come on.
You look great.
Seriously, you should
be naked more often.
You're a hunk. [chuckles]
Did you mean what you said?
What did I say?
That you loved me?
[Ash chuckles softly]
Um.
I mean, I didn't...
I didn't mean to say it just
then it sort of came out
when I, you know.
It happens sometimes.
I just get caught up
in the moment and...
Yeah.
This has happened
more than once?
Why?
What, what does that matter?
It doesn't.
I'm sorry I asked.
No, you're not.
I'm not what?
You're not sorry.
You throw that word around so
much, it loses its meaning.
[shirt rustling]
Shouldn't have asked.
You know, I, I didn't mean it.
It just came out.
And who cares how many
times it's happened before?
Like what, what sort of
difference does that make?
Maybe I should go.
Seriously?
Yeah, maybe you should go.
[dramatic music]
You got what you wanted, right?
You know that's
not what I'm about.
[plastic curtain rustles]
[door thudding]
Mark!
Mark, come on, man, open the
door, I know you're in there.
[door thudding]
Open the fucking door,
man, this ain't funny!
[doorknob rattles]
All right.
You gave me no choice, buddy.
I'm coming in.
[door thudding]
[door creaks]
-[Maverick groans]
-[door thuds]
God, did something die in here?
[ominous music]
Hello?
[footsteps tapping]
Where are you?
Hey!
[ominous music continues]
Mark?
[door creaks]
Holy shit.
What happened to you, man?
I'm fine.
I've been calling you nonstop,
and all I get is radio silence.
I even called Yellow Mitten
yesterday looking for you,
and lo and behold, they
fired you two weeks ago.
What the fuck is going on, dude?
[chair creaks]
I just...
I really messed things up.
Clearly.
I had everything
and I, I blew it.
Well, I mean, I would have
quit Yellow Mitten years ago
if I were you, but-
She told me she loved me,
and I freaked out.
Huh?
With Ash!
She told you she loves you?
Wow, she really is crazy.
She took it back.
But, I think she meant it.
And you know what?
What?
I think I love her too.
And I freaked out,
and I panicked,
and I ran.
Look at me sitting here.
I wanna be with her.
She's really special.
Yeah, yeah, she's special
and it's nice to see
you commit for once.
So, the real question is.
Yes, yes.
We fucked, okay?
Are you happy?
[Maverick laughs]
You can be such an asshole.
Oh, I
enjoy being an asshole.
You, on the other hand, clearly
don't enjoy being a pussy.
Maybe you should stop
feeling sorry for yourself
and text her back.
You're right.
What am I doing?
I need to see her.
I need to see her now.
Uh.
Uh, yeah, uh, [chuckles]
hey, that's, uh,
that's, that's nice and all,
but maybe you should take
a shower or something
before you go running
off back to Smash.
You smell bad, real bad.
You might be right about that.
I know I'm right.
And, hey, I'm glad that
you're alive and well-ish.
Thanks for being
there for me, Mav.
You're my little brother,
and I do think it's kind of cool
that you found someone to
consistently bing bong.
[Mark chuckles]
I'm gonna pretend you
didn't just say bing bong.
I'm really excited for
you to meet her, dude.
Same, though she might
have second thoughts
about being with you after
she gets a load of me.
I'm just joshing you, bro.
[Mark chuckles]
I got my own date
to tend to tonight.
Jacuzzi with Jessica?
Something like that.
I'm not even gonna
ask. [chuckles]
Probably best you don't.
So, here's what we're gonna do.
You're gonna clean
yourself up, eat something,
and let me how things go.
[floor creaks]
[Maverick chuckles]
[sighs] I'm sorry, um.
[Ash] Why are you here?
I, I know that
was stupid of me.
I understand if you don't
wanna talk to me anymore
after what I did, I
would totally get it.
No, I.
I don't want that.
Why did you leave?
[sighs] I don't know, um.
I've just messed up a lot of
things with people and, and
sabotaged a lot
of relationships by,
by shutting down or
running away and I just-
I don't...
I don't wanna hear about
you and other girls.
I just wanna know
that you're mine.
I...
I just don't wanna mess
things up with you.
You wanna be with me?
Yes.
We'll take care of each other.
Through all of it,
through thick and thin.
I'll always take care of you.
[knife scrapes]
Give me your hand.
-[knife slices]
-[Mark gasps]
-[knife slices]
-[Ash gasps]
You promise?
I promise.
-[lips smacking]
-[both panting]
[Ash exhales]
Can we just relax
tonight and hang out,
watch a movie or something?
I just...
I found this zombie
movie called Zom-bees.
[Ash chuckles]
I just, I just rented it.
No.
No, we, we can't
watch a movie tonight.
We have really important
business to attend to.
I'm really gonna need you
to have my back, okay?
Yeah, whatever you need.
[sofa creaks]
[ominous music]
[upbeat music]
[perfume hissing]
You're ready?
Where do you want me to hide?
Just go in the back.
Wait for the cackle.
I'll be right here.
[lips smack]
[upbeat music continues]
[Ash exhales]
[cabinet door clicks and thuds]
[door knocks]
[upbeat music continues]
[door clicks and creaks]
[ominous music]
Well, hello, gorgeous.
[Ash] Hey, hot stuff.
[footsteps tapping]
[gentle music]
[both chuckling]
You look even better, IRL.
You're not too bad
yourself, big guy.
[Ash chuckles]
[Maverick chuckles]
You know, we do have this
whole place to ourselves.
[Maverick] Oh, lucky me.
[Ash chuckling]
-[lips smacking]
-[Ash moaning]
I don't know what it is.
You're just so familiar to me.
Oh, yeah?
[Ash chuckles]
Oh, yeah.
I feel like.
I don't know, I've seen
you somewhere before?
Might be from your dreams.
[glass shatters]
[ominous music]
[belt clicking]
[zipper rasps]
Or maybe your nightmares.
[clothes rustling]
[ominous music]
[Mark] Maverick?
In my room, in my room
Mark!
What the fuck are
you doing here?
You shouldn't be here.
I shouldn't be here?
You shouldn't be
here, this is my date!
This, this isn't happening.
-[Ash grunts]
-[Maverick groans]
-[Ash grunts]
-[Maverick groans]
Oh, stop, please,
please, please.
Stop?
He's my, he's-
Did you see what he
was just doing to me?
You're telling me to stop?
He's, he's my brother!
-[Mark sighs]
-What?
[Mark panting]
Look, he's my brother.
Look.
It doesn't fucking matter
if he's your brother, okay?
He's here, he just
tried to rape me.
He knows where I live,
he has to die, Mark.
[stammers] No,
no, no, he's not,
he's not one of the bad guys.
[stammers] We all just,
please, let's just talk to him,
just talk to him, and [stammers]
he won't, he won't tell anybody!
He won't tell anyone
about this, I promise.
Help me get him
in the basement.
[ominous music]
[footsteps tapping]
Is it true?
What the fuck
is going on, dude?
Tell me,
is it true?
Are you sick?
I can explain, Mark.
Christ, it is true.
I'll tell you all about
what's fact and fiction
as soon as you untie me.
No, no, tell me now.
Have you raped anybody?
Depends on how
you define rape.
Are you serious?
Have you, have you
killed anybody?
[footsteps tapping]
To be fair, I onl-
Answer the question.
[footsteps tapping]
You're gonna choose
this bitch over me?
Your own flesh and blood!
How dare you call her that!
You should see the filthy
things she posts online.
She's practically
begging men to rail her.
Face it, Mark, you're
with an E-Whore!
-[hand slaps]
-[Maverick groans]
[Maverick panting]
Mark knows what I do online.
He knows it's all for the cause.
It's all to nail
despicable people like you.
Mark!
Mark, come on, man.
I practically raised you
after Mom and Dad died.
Please, please stop.
I took care of us,
I took care of you!
And I'm still taking
care of you to this day.
You don't wanna kill me.
You know it and I know it.
So, so untie me and let's leave.
[Mark] Please, stop!
This girl is a lunatic.
She's lying to you,
she's the killer, not me!
Shut up!
I knew she was crazy,
I fucking knew it!
Kill him!
From the moment you
told me about her.
Mark.
[eerie music]
[Mark panting]
Mark.
Don't you love me, Mark?
Because
if you loved me
you would kill him.
Don't listen to her.
She doesn't love you.
Look at her!
Look at you!
How could someone like her
actually ever be into someone
like you?
[eerie music continues]
No, no, no, no,
Mark, we're family!
We're family!
[Mark sobs]
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
[Maverick] No!
[eerie music intensifies]
[tape ripping]
No, what the
fuck are you doing?
Mark?
He's family!
[kick thuds]
-[Mark groaning]
-[suspenseful music]
God, you moron!
-[body thuds]
-[Mark groans]
[Mark groaning]
-[Maverick groans]
-[body thuds]
[Maverick grunting]
[Maverick screaming]
[Maverick groaning]
You bitch!
I'm gonna tear your eyes
clean out of their sockets
and fuck your empty,
useless skull!
[Maverick groaning]
-[flesh squelching]
-[Maverick screaming]
[Ash spits]
[Maverick screaming]
-[suspenseful music]
-[Maverick groaning]
You dumb, disgusting,
worthless, fuck toy!
You wanted this
close contact, huh?
You thought I would
just be another bimbo?
Another name in the paper?
Another set of holes
for you to ruin?
[Maverick groans]
You remember that 12-year-old
you dumped by the highway
after you used her?
Or that 16-year-old
that you dismembered
and left in a ditch?
How about those corpses
you dug up and defiled?
I am not worthless.
You are worthless.
I can feel the life draining
out of you, [laughs]
and it feels so fucking good!
[Ash cackling]
[Ash screaming]
[Ash panting]
-[object thuds]
-[body thuds]
[Maverick wheezing]
Run, Mav!
Run!
[Maverick groaning]
-Ash, Ash, Ash, Ash.
-[Ash groans]
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
He's my family, he's,
he's, he's my family.
I couldn't do it.
You two are all I have,
he's, he's all I have.
-[hand slaps]
-[Ash grunts]
I can't fucking believe you.
You're not sorry.
You were never sorry.
If you were, you
would have killed him!
-[suspenseful music]
-[Ash sobbing]
You're a liar.
You'll never love me
like I loved you.
I would have done
anything for you.
Anything!
And you let him go, you let
that filthy child fucker go.
And now I know
that I can never trust
you or anyone ever again.
-[ax thudding]
-[Ash grunting]
You're just like
the rest of them.
-[ax thudding]
-[Ash grunting]
-Deceitful.
-[Mark groans]
Depraved.
Dead.
[Ash crying]
[Mark groans]
I loved you, Ash.
[Ash sobs]
Mark, Mark, Mark!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
Mark, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
[Ash crying]
[lips smacking]
She walks a crooked
little path alone
Alone
She leaves
The part of her
that feels at home
At home
She moves through the crowd
She'd rather escape
She wracks her brain
For the right thing to say
But it doesn't really matter
Nobody listens anyway
[gentle techno music]
She walks a crooked
little path alone
[gentle techno music]
[techno music fades out]
