3rd person pov 

kai now stood with the others near the ambulance with her headphones in her ears. mindy laid her head on her shoulder and she laid her head on mindys before she looked around and closed her eyes. 

they waited a little while until they saw gale talking to sam, detective bailey, kirby and tara. they now needed to follow gale and that's exactly what they did. 

"Jason and Greg were little Atlanta rich boys. Apparently, they used fake names to rent this place" she told them

"how did you find it?" kirby asked

"its called investigative journalism for a reason. how didn't you find it? weren't you tracking them?" gale asked kirby

"I went through their financial records, dozens of times. This was not in any of them. Doesn't make sense" kirby stated

"don't worry. I'm just really good at my job you'll get there." gale told her and she huffed making kai laugh slightly under her breathe and sam nudged her . she swiped her card and opened the door doing it again when they got inside

"what is this place? what's with all the security?" sam asked  as the light turned on and tara spoke up

"it's a movie theater" she stated

"it's not just a theater, it's a shrine" gale told them and they walked forward as they looked around and saw everything from the past. the capes, clothes, knifes, anything and it was all there.

"they got the whole goddamn franchise" mindy exclaimed 

"chad this was uncle randy's. they've got everything" mindy said and dakota looked at kirby

"is that?" tara started

"the knife i was stabbed with" kirby said and sheriff bailey spoke up

"you all have been through so much" he told them

"who drew all these?"mindy asked and then tara thought for a second

"hey how did they get all this stuff? isn't this evidence?" tara asked and kai nodded. she thought that this stuff would've been put away into a safe space too but they could access it which meant that anyone could if they wanted to

"well cops like money and evidence can get lost pretty easily. present company excluded of course" gale said

"why am i here exactly? my alibi checks out." ethan asked

"so i can keep an eye on you roomie" chad stated

"the killer must've checked this place before he murdered jason and greg and then he took the mask off the mannequins. all 9 from stu and billy to amber and richie" gale said and sam walked up into the middle where she stared at her dads robe and knife. "what are you doing?" tara asked sam

" i don't know" sam told her

"so somebody killed these chucklefucks and took over?" chad asked

"chucklefuck?" kai asked and he nodded with a proud smile on his face.

"someone who believes that sam masterminded woodsboro" gale said . she didn't believe it for a second but there was a pet of her mind where she just wondering if it could be a possibility.

"if this were a normal stab movie, this would be the killers lair" mindy said

"which means this isn't a normal stab movie" kirby exclaimed. tara walked and they all watched  as sam followed after her. kai watched mindy sit down in front of the tv that killed stu macher and kirby sat down next to her 

kai waited for sam but she couldn't wait for too long and she watched kirby walk away from mindy making her walk over to her sister and sit down next to her. mindy grabbed kais hand and smiled at her 

"thanks for being here" she said and kai nodded with a smile 

"I'm your sister, its what i do, will you be okay?" she asked 

"if i have you, of course i will be" mindy said and kai smiled before they heard detective baileys voice 

"sorry to interrupt, think i might have an idea about how to turn the tables on this creep" he told him 

"yeah, we're in" gale said 

"sorry, gale, no press allowed" kirby said and kai laughed under her breath with a smile on her face. this is where the plan began. they all got in the van and drove to central park. kai sat in the back of the van with kirby, chad, mindy and ethan. 

"so we're really doing the phone tracing thing that never works in the movies. It'll be all 'keep them talking Sam two more minutes I've almost got him' and then he hangs up just before we can get a lock" mindy said and kai stared at her, a part of her knew she was right and the other part didn't want to believe it.

"I can trace a call in under 15 seconds" kirby told her

"well, you've got them out there as bait" mindy fought

"because the killer usually calls from somewhere nearby" kirby said and kai  looked at chad who looked at her too. the two of them shared one thought and they knew that the two women going back and forth wasn't going to help anyone.

"and you think they're safe because it's broad daylight and a public place?" mindy exclaimed

"look, I am here, okay? and so is bailey" kirby told them 

"this is exactly how our uncle Randy died. broad Daylight. Public Place., Yanked into a van stab stop stab, no more Randy" mindy said and that's when ethan reached out the bag of cheetos to chad who shook his head

"hey, sam? stay frosty our there, okay?" kirby told her

"we're good" sam stated and kai leaned her head on the wall as they heard a phone start ringing and she sat up. she looked at kirby who began to trace the call.

"did you get it?" sam asked

"yep. geolocation coming through right now. he's on the upper west side. He's inside an apartment building halfway across the city." kirby stated

"on West 96th?" tara asked

"how did you know that?" tara asked and they seethed

"gale" sam told them and kai looked at the others. they then heard panting and knew that the sisters were running to the car as fast as they could.

"my friend Danny works on the upper west side. He can get there quicker." sam said

"yeah or he could finish her off. is it possible he's the killer?" he asked

"fuck. we have to get there now" sam said

"it's 50 blocks away. We don't even know if it's true.. Sam wait take a minute" he said

"we don't have a minute" she said

"you have to trust me we got to make the right call" he told her

"sam!" tara called and they turned to see tara sitting in the drivers seat.

"get in" she told her and sam ran over as she got in the front and they looked at sheriff bailey who stood outside of the car in shock and confusion.

"whats she doing?" he asked

"hey, get out of my car. what do you think you're doing? that's an official vehicle! hey!" he called and tara rolled up the window

"should we use the sirens?" sam asked

"did you think we'd steal a police car and not use the sirens" tara said

"fuck yeah" sam said and she started the car

"do you have a license? what are you doing?" he called as they drove off. kai looked at the others and knew that they needed to head to where gale was as fast as they could. 

when they got there, they all sat in the lobby of the apartment and waited for something

they knew they needed to wait for something.
