MARISOL WAS AT Amber's party, dancing with Liam. Liam rested his forehead against Marisol, planting a gentle kiss on her nose. Marisol's nose scrunched in response, giggling. Chad came over, handing two shot glasses to Marisol and Liam. Marisol took hers as did Liam.

Chad held up his shot glass, looking around to everyone "To Wes and Sapphire!"

"To Wes and Sapphire!" Everyone replied, downing their shots.

Ethan downed his shot, spitting it back into the glass. Marisol giggled at that.

"You alright, Eth?" Marisol wrapped her arm around her boyfriend's brother.

Ethan coughed, nodding in response "Yeah, that was something else."

Marisol smiled, looking over her shoulder, seeing Amber scolding Chad. Uh oh. Mindy walked over to Amber, looking annoyed. Marisol wrapped her arms around Ethan and Liam.

"Mindy's pulling her shit again." Ethan mumbled, rolling his eyes.

Liam hummed in response, rolling his eyes "Probably trying to pull a Stu or a Randy."

Marisol giggled, biting her lip "No offense, but she will probably never hit close to Stu or Randy. Just saying."

Liam kissed her temple, rubbing her arm. Ethan kissed Marisol's cheek, going to find Chad.

MARISOL WATCHED ETHAN Storm off after making out with Chad. Mindy walked by giving their brother a thumbs up. Chad returned it then flipped off his twin when she walked off.

"Liam?" Marisol looked up at her boyfriend, rubbing his arm.

Liam shook his head, looking at her "Give him time."

Liv popped up behind Marisol, tapping her shoulder. Marisol turned around to face the girl.

"Should I go?" Liam questioned, looking between the two girls.

Marisol shook her head, stopping him from leaving. Liv raised a brow, pursing her lips together.

"Ethan's outside, Chad went after him." Marisol explained to Liv with a slight smile.

Liv nodded, leaving them to find Ethan or Chad. Marisol turned to Liam, hearing Richie's voice.

"Oh, dear God." Liam pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing.

 "Hey, hey, hey! Hello! Can we cut the music, please? Hi...Gen Z. How are you? Both Sam and Tara have been attacked by the killer twice. Now they're here, which makes this place a huge murder target, so, if I were you, I'd probably leave." Richie spoke aloud, turning on the lights.

A partygoer tossed their green solo cup at Richie's head. Marisol and Liam laughed watching the encounter.

"Okay, I tried to be nice. Get the fuck out! Please get the fuck out. Sincerely, get the fuck out!" Richie told the guests as they started to leave.

"Buzzkill." A partygoer snapped at Richie, exiting Amber's house.

"Thank you. Thank you all. I'm saving your life. I promise. Thanks, teens. Thank you so much. Thank you for leaving the cup." Richie told the guests as they exited Amber's house.

MARISOL HELPED VINCE Up, wrapping his arm around her shoulder. Liv came downstairs, tilting her head.

"Did you find any more beer?" Liv joked with a smile, watching Marisol help Vince up.

Vince groaned in pain from his hand being reopened. His ankle also ached. Liv came over, helping Vince up the stairs.

Liam helped Vince, walking into Amber's living room. When they got there Sam was pressing onto Mindy's stab wound. Marisol knew her sister was pretending to be unconscious. 

Amber screamed from behind Liam, walking past him "What did you do to her?"

"Mindy." Tara said, walking into the room.

"No, I didn't do anything." Sam stuttered, walking over to Scarlet.

Scarlet held onto Sam, rubbing her arm "Sam, I believe you."

Sam shook in Scarlet's hold, looking over to Amber.

"Is she okay?" Tara asked, using her crutches to get over to Mindy.

Suddenly the sound of beer splattering on the floor startled everyone. Everyone turned to see Richie. Liam and Marisol rolled their eyes in unison.

"What the fuck?" Richie asked, raising his hands up.

"Richie, where the fuck were you?" Sam asked, glaring at her boyfriend.

"I just went into the basement to get beer." Richie responded, his voice getting higher.

"You went into the basement alone?" Amber and Liv asked, confusing lacing their tones.

"I asked her to come with me, she said no!" Richie exclaimed, throwing his arms in Mindy's direction.

Ethan came into the living room, blood on his hands. Marisol's eyes widened as she looked at Ethan. Oh God, please no.

"Stay the fuck back!" Amber exclaimed, holding her hands out towards Ethan.

"Jesus Christ..." Ethan cried, looking over to Mindy then at the others.

"I was with Tara, but the rest of you were wandering around. One of you is the fucking killer!" Amber exclaimed, pointing at everyone.

"Fuck you!" Ethan exclaimed, gritting his teeth.

"Why is there blood on your hands?" Sam asked Ethan.

Scarlet's eyebrows furrowed as she looked at Ethan "What?"

"What? I found Chad. I found Chad and he's outside.." Ethan cried, pointing outside.

Liam reached over, squeezing Ethan's shoulder.

"Chad?!" Sam exclaimed, angered look on her face.

"You're fucking lying." Amber spat at Ethan.

"No." Ethan responded, shaking his head.

"You're the killer." Richie panicked, looking at his brother.

Liam glared at Richie, crossing his arms. Was he being serious right now?

"No, I'm not." Ethan panicked, wanting Scarlet to help.

"Ethan, stop. Ethan, Ethan, just stop!" Amber yelled, closing her eyes.

"Fuck you, Amber, I'm not a fucking killer!" Ethan yelled, glaring at Amber.

"I know." Amber replied coolly, aiming the gun at Ethan.

Scarlet gasped, letting go of Sam "NO!"

Amber pulled the trigger. Before Ethan could get shot, Scarlet wrapped her arms around Ethan's waist, tackling him to the ground. Everyone gasped, looking at Amber.

"Welcome to Act Three." Amber smirked, aiming her gun at Richie.
