Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story (2022) s01e02 Episode Script
Please Don't Go
1
From our investigation, we strongly feel
this individual has been involved
in other homicides.
We have taken evidence
out of the building to be examined.
Police are removing boxes
and boxes of body parts
in what appears to be
a psychopathic mass murder.
Police are questioning
the suspect downtown.
All we really know about him,
a man with a criminal history
of sexual assault of a teenage boy.
Yet no one expected
the overnight discovery.
Now the job is to identify the victims.
Name?
Jeffrey Lionel Dahmer.
Date of birth?
May 21, 1960.
Authorities also took out
a barrel of what they think is acid.
Police are reluctant to reveal
exactly how many victims there might be.
Neighbors say
the man was strange.
However, no one suspected
the accumulation of dead bodies.
- Empty your pockets.
- At this point
Take off the watch.
all we can tell you
is that it is a number of homicides.
Take off your clothes, Mr. Dahmer.
The big question now
is the identity of the victims.
- Left hand.
- All the victims were men.
The district attorney is asking
any potential witnesses to come forward.
Bite down.
There are
unanswered questions.
Just who are the dismembered people
killed in this mass murder?
Authorities are wondering
how anyone could have committed
these gruesome acts,
just as others in Milwaukee are wondering
how police couldn't have known,
especially since Dahmer was
a convicted sex offender out on parole.
Now face forward.
Is there anyone
you'd like us to call?
My dad.
And you're aware
of your right to have an attorney present?
Yeah.
I'm gonna waive that right.
I'm just gonna be honest,
tell you everything.
Only makes sense I do everything to
put an end to it.
Okay, great.
Can I ask, why do you think you did it?
Killed all these men?
And why did you keep them?
Goodbye!
What happened?
She finally do it? She kill herself?
- Step back.
- Gonna get her to the hospital.
- She's fakin' it. She's done it before.
- Mr. Dahmer, calm down.
Bravo, Joyce! You're a real good actress.
No! Mr. Dahmer, your wife had an overdose.
Who called the ambulance?
Your son did.
Oh, Goddammit.
Hey, Jeff.
That was good, callin' the ambulance.
- Okay.
- Here.
I'll take him.
Yeah. I got him.
Mr. Dahmer, we're pretty sure
that this was a genuine suicide attempt.
No. Just my wife tryin'
to get attention. Does it all the time.
- Where are you running off to now?
- Nobody's running.
You always find time
for everything but your family.
That's a lie.
Oh God,
you're a failure as a father.
Oh, and I'm a bad father, why?
Because I have to go to work?
Yeah. I mean, that's right.
You don't spend any time with him.
Oh, that's a load of
What about you, Joyce?
With your drugs
and cryin' your eyes out every day.
Oh, fuck you. You're not a doctor!
You don't get to tell me
about my medication!
- Your pills.
- Fuck you.
- Fuck you.
- Get out!
- Oh I will.
- Get out!
I am. Gonna be
the best three days of my life!
Get out!
Jesus!
Dad? Please don't go.
Jeff, I'm only
gonna be gone for three days.
It's for work. I told you this.
Thank you, Michael.
Thank you, Debbie. That's very kind.
Jeff, what is that?
They're tadpoles.
Are they for science class?
They're for you.
Oh. Well, thank you, Jeff.
That's so thoughtful.
Okay, class.
Take out your books.
Turn to page 32, and we'll start
with some cursive exercises.
And don't forget,
book reports are due on Monday.
And if your mom and dad don't have
a typewriter, handwritten is okay.
Why'd he give you those?
I, uh, I actually don't know.
He's weird.
Kevin, we need to be nice to that boy.
I think there's some trouble at home.
He could probably use a friend.
Well, what are you going to do with them?
Do you want them?
This is so cool.
They're frogs, right?
Baby frogs.
That guy's weird though.
Those aren't yours.
I gave them to her.
These are mine now. She gave them to me.
No.
No!
Weirdo.
Mom, I'm home!
Does anyone smell that?
Smell what?
It smells like something
died under the house.
Like a dead animal or
I'll take care of it tomorrow.
Don't have enough to do this weekend.
Thought it might be nice to relax,
but, yeah, I can do that.
Oh man.
There he is.
Look at that.
What is it?
A rat?
Oh, too big for a rat.
That's an opossum.
They got the same sort of body as a rat,
but this guy's a marsupial.
Only marsupial in North America.
Oh no, Jeff. Uh
Actually, it's fine to be curious.
Just be sure to wash your hands, okay?
How'd he die?
Don't know. Let's take a look.
Well, he coulda just died
'cause it doesn't look
like somebody ate him.
Oh! Hang on a sec. Look at that.
He's got a hole in his skull. Right there.
Somebody must've bit through it.
Coyote or something. Look, it's crushed.
Yeah, he must've gotten away
and run under here.
Coyote couldn't get after him.
With his head all crushed?
With, like, a hole in it?
Well, that's amazing
what the brain can do.
Take a lot of damage.
You know, one of my professors,
we did this experiment
where you take a frog
and you actually cut off his head.
You take out most of the brain.
Just leave a small part, the stem,
so he'll keep breathing,
his heart'll keep beating,
but he can't think.
Can't feel anything either.
But then my professor showed us,
you take a cotton ball, you dip it in acid
and then dab it on the little bit of brain
that's left, and guess what?
What?
The frog's hands try
to wipe the cotton ball away.
Which, yeah, I know,
it shouldn't be able to do.
The part of the brain
that knows how to do that is gone.
It's a fascinating thing, the brain.
They're like fiddlesticks.
C'mon, let's wash your hands.
I won't have it!
It's macabre. It's unsanitary.
Finally, this is something
he's showing interest in.
He's in his own world half the time
since the surgery.
Well, that's not my fault!
Why don't you take another pill?
You, just get out of the house!
Get the fuck out!
A knife?
You gonna kill me?
I'm not a black bear in your nightmares.
Fuck you!
Oh, goddammit!
You know what would calm you down, Joyce?
A fuckin' lobotomy.
Sunshine came softly through my ♪

So hopefully
this isn't gonna spill everywhere.
Oh wow!
You know, you and I have 20 feet
of small intestine.
This fella's an omnivore, just like us.
We should measure how long his is.
We don't wanna cut yet. Why don't ya
Why don't you just pull it out
and start the side?
Good job, Jeff.
Whoa.
There it is.
The heart.
Neat, huh?
Dad, are you gonna leave?
No. We're gonna have dinner here in a bit.
No. I mean
are you and Mom gonna get divorced?
Uh
Hey, Dahmer.
Your shift ended 20 minutes ago.
That's all right, man. I like it.
My guess is you miss the army.
All those years of structure, you know?
Yeah. Maybe.
You have a girlfriend?
Are you meeting any girls?
No. Not really.
Are you drunk?
'Cause every Sunday
when I call, you're always slurring.
Are you drinking now?
No. Just, well,
it's the weekend, you know.
I got nothin' else to do.
I'm all by myself.
Who was it said after they got discharged
that, "I'm gonna go to Miami"?
Well, you're the one who told me
I needed to get out in the world.
I don't like it.
I don't got no money.
Dad, can I please come home?
Hey, Dad.
Can I please come home?
Now, I'm gonna expect
a certain level of behavior.
That's the deal.
I know.
You gotta respect your grandma.
Her house, her rules.
No getting drunk.
And you gotta look for a job.
That's the deal.
I will.
Look, roadkill.
Easy, don't be so rough.
You gotta be very careful with his type.
Oh.
That Mr. Roper!
What a character.
What type?
You know.
It's been so nice having you here, Jeff,

I don't mind.
I know, hon.
But you should get out there,
make some friends.
Date a nice girl.
There's a really nice gal at my church,
and I don't think she's seeing anybody.
Oh, what is her name?
Oh, Barb, I think.
Uh, Barb Novak.
If you come to church,
I'll introduce you to her.
Oh, she's a lovely Christian girl.
Teaches at a preschool, I think.
Oh.
Okay, yeah.
Jeff?
Jeff!
What's that shirt?
This?
Just a T-shirt.
No T-shirt.
Even you working
in back, only dress shirt.
Okay. Sorry, Wally.
Mm-hmm.

in approximately five minutes.
Please take your items

Aw. Thanks, Grandma.

Kinda like to make my own bed.
Oh.

Let me guess.
Your fake ID didn't work.
How old are you?
Why do you care?
Just askin' a question. How old are ya?
Twenty-one.
Yeah, right.
Want me to get you something?
What do you want?
Uh I don't fuckin' know.
Boone's Farm?
Boone's Farm.
Lightweight.
Hey! Where you goin'?
Come on. You comin'?
Where?
Back to my place.
We're gonna party. Party hardy.
Hey.
Pay you good money.
Come on.
There you go.
You, uh, like sports?
There you go. Drink up.
Hey, I know you're not 21.
How old are you?
Hey, it's cool. I won't tell nobody.
I'm 14.
Well, that's cool.
I won't tell nobody.
You know, when I was in school, I, uh
I used to drink beer
in the middle of class.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I didn't care.
And, uh,
I didn't even really get into any trouble.
What?
You don't know who I am. Do you?
No, I mean
You knew my brother. Somsack.
No, I don't think so.
You got arrested for it, dude.
You, like, took pictures of him.
And other things.
If I'm such a bad guy, then
what are you doin' here?
My family needs the money.
And you said you'd give me 100 dollars.
"And other things."
What the fuck's he talkin' about?
That's such bullshit.
Cops and everything, you know?
Like, teachers
It's just
It's like
everybody's had it out
for me since forever.
They just decide you're a bad guy,
and there's nothin' you can do about it.
Got their minds made up.
You know, I'd have given
your brother 100 bucks too,
but then he runs off and lies to the cops.
It's like, screw you then.
I don't need that.
You know, man,
I just bought you Boone's Farm.
And I'm gonna give you money.
And all I wanna do is take some pictures.
Okay.
Give me the money then.
No, first we gotta do the photos.
No, give it to me now.
Look, this is this is $23.
Give that to you now,
and I'll give you the rest
when we're done.
Otherwise, you're just gonna run off
like your brother.
Cops are gonna say
I did stuff I didn't even do.
Fine.
Go ahead now, drink up.
Got that for you,
and you're not drinkin' it.
What, you don't like it?
No. I like Tickle Pink.
This is something else.
What are you talkin' about?
That's what it is.
Hold on.
Yeah, this is Strawberry Hill.
You shoulda told me that then.
All right, look, I'm gonna
I'll chug a beer,
and you chug that, all right?
- All right.
- All right, let's go.
No, no, no. Down the hatch.
Let's go.
Oh. Good.
I was hopin' you weren't gonna die.
Now I can try something really fun.
Oh, hey, hey, hey! Whoa, no. No.
It's okay. Lay down and relax, okay?
Don't worry about him.
Yeah.
You just
Mm.
Just watch the movie.
Have you seen this?
Return of the Jedi.
The Emperor, he's so fuckin' cool.
Did you see my contacts?
They're just like the Emperor's.
Got 'em at a costume shop in Kenosha.
Hm.
I can
take 'em out if they're too scary.
Okay.
I'm takin' 'em out.
You stay right there.
Tired of everyone leaving me.
I'm just gonna make you my zombie.
Okay? Not gonna hurt.
Brain doesn't have any nerve endings.
This is just a little hot water
with some acid in it.
Okay?
It's just gonna be like a lobotomy.
Gonna make it
so that you really like bein' here.
You can live with me.
Play soccer
What the hell?
Yo, hey, kid. What are you doin'?
You ain't got no clothes on.
Oh my God. Go. Get your mom.
Let's go. Go!
What's your name?
What's your name, baby?
What's your name?
Finally! Took y'all long enough.
Okay, ma'am.
There's no need for the attitude.
Try being respectful.
Tell us what's goin' on.
Okay, so this kid,
what we think happened
Well, we really don't know what happened,
but something ain't right.
- What? What's goin' on?
- Do you know this kid?
Yes, sir. This is my boyfriend.
Boyfriend?
He came outta his apartment.
He was talkin' crazy.
He's butt-naked
and doesn't know what's going on.
What's your name, sir?
Jeff Dahmer.
Son, you know this guy?
Look, he's bleeding.
He's drunk. He fell over.
He's got blood
dripping down his head!
Hey. Enough. Let us do our job.
Okay, okay, but the boy is bleeding.
- Y'all gonna do something?
- I told you he fell over.
Okay? He gets real drunk like this.
He just
Look, he attacked me.
He told me to get him some more alcohol,
so I went down to the store.
Son, how old are you?
Hey.
- Can you hear me?
- He's drunk.
He's not gonna be able to tell you.
He's 19.
He's my boyfriend.
Can I please just take him inside?
He's cold.
This is just really embarrassing.
Does he have some ID somewhere inside?
No, he lost it.
Uh
Seriously?
Ma'am,
let's lower the temperature here, okay?
Look, guys, I
I don't know what to tell you.
I mean the guy lives with me.
You can come inside. I'll prove it.
I got photos of him and stuff.
All right. What apartment is it?
Wait, wait, wait.
You're just gonna let him
take this baby back inside?
Ma'am. He's telling me this is
where they live. We'll take him inside.
Y'all don't want to at least
find out how old this boy is first?
Ma'am, he says it's his boyfriend.
- We'll handle it from here.
- I'm really sorry about this, everybody.
What's a guy like you doin' living here?
What do you mean?
It's called Drug City, dude.
These are all fuckin' crack houses.
Well, you know, it's cheap.
Yeah, ass-fuckin' cheap.
Because if you guys are doing crack,
you should just tell us now.
- We can get you some help.
- No, we don't do that kind of stuff.
Okay, what about your buddy?
No, he's just wasted. Come on.
Son, you had
a little too much to drink, okay?
Well, I tell him that all the time,
but he just doesn't listen.
And have you been drinkin'?
No, I'm sober.
Hey, hey, hey, hold up.
You gonna have anything weird in there?
What? Like, uh like gay stuff?
I mean, I didn't wanna
No.
We just
don't want to catch anything.
You won't. I promise.
Okay.
Now you just lay down on the couch, baby.
All right.
Now you guys can come on in.
I'm gonna get him cleaned up
and dressed and everything.
What is that smell?
Well, my, uh, fridge broke.
So I had a bunch of meat that went bad.
- But I got a guy comin' tomorrow.
- Good.
So, uh, he lives here?
Oh yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, here's those photos.
Yeah, see.
Like I said, we're boyfriends.
Yeah.
But sometimes, you know,
how it is, it just gets a little fiery.
Yeah, I sure don't know.
Fiery, 'cause what? He's Asian?
Yeah.
Yeah, all right.
You mind if I have a look around?
Uh
Yeah. Yeah, go ahead.
Yeah, all right.
We're just going to, uh
Let's get outta here, come on.
Okay. Uh, you guys
I don't know what you guys do.
Just take care of him, okay?
Yeah, I will.

This fella's an omnivore, just like us.
We should measure how long his is.
We don't wanna cut yet. Why don't ya
Why don't you just pull it out
and start the side?
Good job, Jeff.
Whoa.
There it is.
The heart.
Neat, huh?
Dad, are you gonna leave?
No. We're gonna have dinner here in a bit.
No. I mean
are you and Mom gonna get divorced?
Uh
Hey, Dahmer.
Your shift ended 20 minutes ago.
That's all right, man. I like it.
My guess is you miss the army.
All those years of structure, you know?
Yeah. Maybe.
You have a girlfriend?
Are you meeting any girls?
No. Not really.
Are you drunk?
'Cause every Sunday
when I call, you're always slurring.
Are you drinking now?
No. Just, well,
it's the weekend, you know.
I got nothin' else to do.
I'm all by myself.
Who was it said after they got discharged
that, "I'm gonna go to Miami"?
Well, you're the one who told me
I needed to get out in the world.
I don't like it.
I don't got no money.
Dad, can I please come home?
Hey, Dad.
Can I please come home?
Now, I'm gonna expect
a certain level of behavior.
That's the deal.
I know.
You gotta respect your grandma.
Her house, her rules.
No getting drunk.
And you gotta look for a job.
That's the deal.
I will.
Look, roadkill.
Easy, don't be so rough.
You gotta be very careful with his type.
Oh.
That Mr. Roper!
What a character.
What type?
You know.
It's been so nice having you here, Jeff,
but you don't have to have dinner
with me every night, you know.
I don't mind.
I know, hon.
But you should get out there,
make some friends.
Date a nice girl.
There's a really nice gal at my church,
and I don't think she's seeing anybody.
Oh, what is her name?
Oh, Barb, I think.
Uh, Barb Novak.
If you come to church,
I'll introduce you to her.
Oh, she's a lovely Christian girl.
Teaches at a preschool, I think.
Oh.
Okay, yeah.
Jeff?
Jeff!
What's that shirt?
This?
Just a T-shirt.
No T-shirt.
Even you working
in back, only dress shirt.
Okay. Sorry, Wally.
Mm-hmm.
May I have your attention,
the store will be closing
in approximately five minutes.
Please take your items
to the checkout now.
You find everything okay?
Mm-hmm.
It'll be 13.
Thank you.
Sir?
Have a good night.
- Good night, Len.

How old are you?
Why do you care?
Just askin' a question. How old are ya?
Twenty-one.
Yeah, right.
Want me to get you something?
What do you want?
Uh I don't fuckin' know.
Boone's Farm?
Boone's Farm.
Lightweight.
Hey! Where you goin'?
Come on. You comin'?
Where?
Back to my place.
We're gonna party. Party hardy.
Hey.
Pay you good money.
Come on.
There you go.
You, uh, like sports?
There you go. Drink up.
Hey, I know you're not 21.
How old are you?
Hey, it's cool. I won't tell nobody.
I'm 14.
Well, that's cool.
I won't tell nobody.
You know, when I was in school, I, uh
I used to drink beer
in the middle of class.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I didn't care.
And, uh,
I didn't even really get into any trouble.
What?
You don't know who I am. Do you?
No, I mean
You knew my brother. Somsack.
No, I don't think so.
You got arrested for it, dude.
You, like, took pictures of him.
And other things.
If I'm such a bad guy, then
what are you doin' here?
My family needs the money.
And you said you'd give me 100 dollars.
"And other things."
What the fuck's he talkin' about?
That's such bullshit.
Cops and everything, you know?
Like, teachers
It's just
It's like
everybody's had it out
for me since forever.
They just decide you're a bad guy,
and there's nothin' you can do about it.
Got their minds made up.
You know, I'd have given
your brother 100 bucks too,
but then he runs off and lies to the cops.
It's like, screw you then.
I don't need that.
You know, man,
I just bought you Boone's Farm.
And I'm gonna give you money.
And all I wanna do is take some pictures.
Okay.
Give me the money then.
No, first we gotta do the photos.
No, give it to me now.
Look, this is this is $23.
Give that to you now,
and I'll give you the rest
when we're done.
Otherwise, you're just gonna run off
like your brother.
Cops are gonna say
I did stuff I didn't even do.
Fine.
Go ahead now, drink up.
Got that for you,
and you're not drinkin' it.
What, you don't like it?
No. I like Tickle Pink.
This is something else.
What are you talkin' about?
That's what it is.
Hold on.
Yeah, this is Strawberry Hill.
You shoulda told me that then.
All right, look, I'm gonna
I'll chug a beer,
and you chug that, all right?
- All right.
- All right, let's go.
No, no, no. Down the hatch.
Let's go.
Oh. Good.
I was hopin' you weren't gonna die.
Now I can try something really fun.
Oh, hey, hey, hey! Whoa, no. No.
It's okay. Lay down and relax, okay?
Don't worry about him.
Yeah.
You just
Mm.
Just watch the movie.
Have you seen this?
Return of the Jedi.
The Emperor, he's so fuckin' cool.
Did you see my contacts?
They're just like the Emperor's.
Got 'em at a costume shop in Kenosha.
Hm.
I can
take 'em out if they're too scary.
Okay.
I'm takin' 'em out.
You stay right there.
Tired of everyone leaving me.
I'm just gonna make you my zombie.
Okay? Not gonna hurt.
Brain doesn't have any nerve endings.
This is just a little hot water
with some acid in it.
Okay?
It's just gonna be like a lobotomy.
Gonna make it
so that you really like bein' here.
You can live with me.
Play soccer
What the hell?
Yo, hey, kid. What are you doin'?
You ain't got no clothes on.
Oh my God. Go. Get your mom.
Let's go. Go!
What's your name?
What's your name, baby?
What's your name?
Finally! Took y'all long enough.
Okay, ma'am.
There's no need for the attitude.
Try being respectful.
Tell us what's goin' on.
Okay, so this kid,
what we think happened
Well, we really don't know what happened,
but something ain't right.
- What? What's goin' on?
- Do you know this kid?
Yes, sir. This is my boyfriend.
Boyfriend?
He came outta his apartment.
He was talkin' crazy.
He's butt-naked
and doesn't know what's going on.
What's your name, sir?
Jeff Dahmer.
Son, you know this guy?
Look, he's bleeding.
He's drunk. He fell over.
He's got blood
dripping down his head!
Hey. Enough. Let us do our job.
Okay, okay, but the boy is bleeding.
- Y'all gonna do something?
- I told you he fell over.
Okay? He gets real drunk like this.
He just
Look, he attacked me.
He told me to get him some more alcohol,
so I went down to the store.
Son, how old are you?
Hey.
- Can you hear me?
- He's drunk.
He's not gonna be able to tell you.
He's 19.
He's my boyfriend.
Can I please just take him inside?
He's cold.
This is just really embarrassing.
Does he have some ID somewhere inside?
No, he lost it.
Uh
Seriously?
Ma'am,
let's lower the temperature here, okay?
Look, guys, I
I don't know what to tell you.
I mean the guy lives with me.
You can come inside. I'll prove it.
I got photos of him and stuff.
All right. What apartment is it?
Wait, wait, wait.
You're just gonna let him
take this baby back inside?
Ma'am. He's telling me this is
where they live. We'll take him inside.
Y'all don't want to at least
find out how old this boy is first?
Ma'am, he says it's his boyfriend.
- We'll handle it from here.
- I'm really sorry about this, everybody.
What's a guy like you doin' living here?
What do you mean?
It's called Drug City, dude.
These are all fuckin' crack houses.
Well, you know, it's cheap.
Yeah, ass-fuckin' cheap.
Because if you guys are doing crack,
you should just tell us now.
- We can get you some help.
- No, we don't do that kind of stuff.
Okay, what about your buddy?
No, he's just wasted. Come on.
Son, you had
a little too much to drink, okay?
Well, I tell him that all the time,
but he just doesn't listen.
And have you been drinkin'?
No, I'm sober.
Hey, hey, hey, hold up.
You gonna have anything weird in there?
What? Like, uh like gay stuff?
I mean, I didn't wanna
No.
We just
don't want to catch anything.
You won't. I promise.
Okay.
Now you just lay down on the couch, baby.
All right.
Now you guys can come on in.
I'm gonna get him cleaned up
and dressed and everything.
What is that smell?
Well, my, uh, fridge broke.
So I had a bunch of meat that went bad.
- But I got a guy comin' tomorrow.
- Good.
So, uh, he lives here?
Oh yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, here's those photos.
Yeah, see.
Like I said, we're boyfriends.
Yeah.
But sometimes, you know,
how it is, it just gets a little fiery.
Yeah, I sure don't know.
Fiery, 'cause what? He's Asian?
Yeah.
Yeah, all right.
You mind if I have a look around?
Uh
Yeah. Yeah, go ahead.
Yeah, all right.
We're just going to, uh
Let's get outta here, come on.
Okay. Uh, you guys
I don't know what you guys do.
Just take care of him, okay?
Yeah, I will.
Thanks, officers. Sorry again.

Yeah, I do. Sorry about that.
