Amanda stands up. She has an idea to fool Mark in to letting his guard down long enough for everyone who is still alive can escape this Hell that they are stuck in.

She knows she might die in the process but this is a risk she is willing to take. The odds of being killed are much higher than those of her living, she knows that. She is ready to take one for the team, so to speak. She is ready to die for them to live. Amanda is about to make the ultimate sacrifice for these people. Most would not do the same for her. She is a special one.

"I was thinking about what you said Mark." Amanda walks towards him.

Mark nods. "And?" He asks, urging her to continue.

"And I think you are right." She says, stepping even closer.

"Well, I know that. But, about what?" Mark asks, enjoying how she thinks he is right. This statement boosts his ego slightly.

Everyone is confused. They all stare at Amanda. They think she is crazy. How could she agree with this psycho, they think. Chris is the most confused by her actions. Why would she be acting like this? They do not know her plan.

"About us not caring enough to help each other. We all play a part when we are in normal society. But when it really comes down to it, we mean nothing to each other. It's every man for himself with us." She replies.

Mark nods. He knows exactly what she is doing. She is trying to fool him in to thinking he has change her thinking. She wants him to think she is on his side. He is on to her. He is much smarter than she thinks she is.

"Keep talking." Mark urges, smirking. He is curious to see how far she will go to play this game.

"Well, um-" Amanda searches her brain for what to say next. She did not expect him to take this long to buy it. "You are doing the exact opposite of what you said we were doing."

"How so?" He asks, genuinely confused as to what she means by that statement.

"By protecting Hannah to get what you want." She replies. "It's quite noble of you actually. You are taking things in to your own hands to get things done. You are defending Hannah's honor. None of us are doing that for each other." Amanda comes up with an amazing lie, even she believes it herself. She thinks Mark would have to be crazy to not believe it as well.

Mark nods. He takes her genius plan in to mind as he plans how to handle this. He will just lock her in the bathroom. She made him feel good. Even if she was just lying to him. He doesn't want to see her blood on the floor just yet.

"Amanda, what are you talking about?!" Chris asks, shocked at what she is saying. Everyone is scared of her. She is starting to sound as crazy as Mark.

"Shut up Chris. She agrees with me. Let the girl do what she wants." Mark points the gun at him. "I guess she isn't the perfect girl you thought she was."

Mark looks to Amanda and smiles.

"You know what Mandie?" He asks. "Go draw yourself a bath in the washroom." He grabs her arm and pulls her in to the bathroom. He turns on the water and pulls her close to him. "Make sure it's steaming hot."

Amanda nods. This is not how she saw her plan going.

Mark leaves the bathroom, closing the door behind him so he can make sure she doesn't sneak out.

He points the gun at the small group. "I'll be just a minute. If any of you think of running, I'll kill you." Mark shoots a warning shot in the couch next to Brendon and Hope. Hope squeals and curls herself in to her husband.

Mark walks back in to the bathroom and locks the door behind him.

Chris looks at the remaining guests of his dinner party. He can't believe it has gotten to this.

Only a few of them remain alive.

In the bathroom, the guests hear a splash followed by Amanda's screams for help. Everyone is too petrified to move to help her.

Mark holds Amanda down in the water, pressing her head down to drown her. He knows exactly what she was trying to do to his mind and he didn't like it.

Amanda stops fighting. Her lungs are filled with water.

She is dead.

Another precious soul is lost on her birthday.

How terribly tragic.
