♪ ♪

Oh, my God, I'm so excited to go.

Well... and if we
get there early,

the lineup shouldn't be so bad.

And what are we gonna
do after anyways?

We can go out to dinner
with Luke or Joe.

Yeah, I'll meet you
in front of the theater.

Hello?



Enough already, all right?

I'm getting sick of this.

Luke?

Anna, if you guys are
trying to freak me out,

it's not working.

Really?

So this is it?

So, what, I... just
pull your mask off

and then I win?

Come on.

I think we both know
that this is over.

Okay, enough, I'm not
having fun anymore.

I'm done.

- You jerk!
- What, you guys are scared

of a little alligator.

Oh, stalked by an alligator,

like that could really happen.

What's up, baby?

A girl in my old high school got stalked.

By an alligator?

No, not by an alligator.

- Who did it?
- Ah, some guy.

She got a restraining order
and he seemed to go away

and then... she graduated
and went off to college and...

he killed her.

- That's awful.
- Yeah.

I think I heard about that.

Wasn't he waiting like
outside her apartment?

- Yeah, he was...
- No.

He was hanging out in
the backseat of her car.

Mm.

Just goes to show
you have no idea

who you're dating...
or marrying for that matter.

Just when you think
you know somebody.

Okay.

I've seen this movie before.

- I gotta get home.
- Me too.

Hey, Ashley... haven't
seen you in a long time.

Ashley is Darren's new flavor.

She's just here by default.

- See you at practice, dude.
- Yeah, sure, man.

- All right, I'll text you.
- Bye.

Ciao.

I can't wait.

I did not say that, I...

Hey, Ashley.

I didn't think you were
coming home till later.

Yeah, I guess not.

Uh, Ashley, this is Trevor.

Hi, Ashley, it's nice to meet you.

Sure.

Got a lot of homework to do.

Wow.

- Sorry.
- No, no, no, no.

Don't worry about it, it's okay.

I'll catch up with you later.

Bye.

Look, I was gonna tell you,

but Trevor just stopped
by unexpectedly.

So, what, is he like
your boyfriend now?

No... we've just been out a few times.

That's all.

Well, I guess he doesn't
know what day it is

because it would be
really insensitive of him

to just drop by.

Unless, of course, you forgot.

It's been two years to the day

and it doesn't seem
like you care.

Mm-hm.

Ashley, you know
that's not fair...

'cause I would never forget
the day your father died ever.

♪ ♪

Hey, Mer, what's up?

Wanted to see how you were doing.

I know today is kind of hard.

I can't believe
it's been two years.

Thanks, but I'm good.

So what are you doing tonight?

Hanging out with Darren

or Chloe and them?

Ashley?

Yeah, uh, look, Mer, I gotta go,

so I'll see you at
school tomorrow, okay?

♪ ♪

Who do you think sent it?

I don't know, but I checked
the number, it's unlisted.

Don't you guys think
it's a coincidence

that we were talking
about stalking

and then we got that invite?

What?

You're the one who talked
about being really stalked.

Hey, it wasn't me.

Did anyone click
on the link and join?

'Cause I didn't.

Not me.

Nada.

What about you, Ashley?

No, no way.

Hey, I gotta go.

We're doing some type of
college orientation assembly.

You're so lucky
you're graduating, man.

I'll catch up with you
later, okay, Chloe?

See you, Chloe.

I'll see you after third period.

So I told you all when
I first started teaching here

at the beginning of the year

that this was going to be
part of my curriculum.

So, start with your scalpel,

and if you need to,

you've all been given
a pair of scissors.

Yes, Sadie?

I have a note from my doctor
that says I can't do this.

Fine... you can go
to the library.

But you still need
to present your project.

That's fine.

Kyle, your partner's not here.

Why don't you team up
with Ashley and Meredith?

Great, your biggest fan.

Hey.

Hey.

All right, everyone,
pull out your worksheets.

Okay, that's enough.

Now turn to page six.

I think we should do it.

- What?
- Join Stalker Club.

Was that your plan all along, Chloe?

Hey, I didn't send it.

- But I have heard of it before.
- From where?

Around.

Hey... I'll try anything once.

What about you, Sadie?

Are you kidding?

She's too scared to cut
open a little froggy.

I'm surprised, considering.

I'll do it.

I mean, it's obviously
just some game

like Candy Crush.

It's better.

We're not gonna be
playing a game...

we're gonna be living it.

Well, I doubt Ashley wants to play.

I mean, she's too
much of a good girl.

I'll join.

What's the big deal?

Well, I guess that
means I'm in too.

Cool.

Let's do it.

Grab your phones.

We're all gonna click
the link on three.

One.

Two.

Three.

The rules that
were sent to us say

that we all draw a piece
of paper from the hat.

If you get "stalker,"

you have to stalk
the rest of us,

the victims.

You can strategically throw
people off your scent,

but if you unmask the stalker
and you're right... you win.

If not... you're out.

What do we win?

The right to not be called
chicken all your life.

There's one more rule.

It says as soon as you
join Stalker Club...

you can't tell anyone about it.

Good luck.

I had a bad dream.

Oh, sweetie.

Well, if you're not too sleepy,

how 'bout we sneak a little
late night ice cream, huh,

for old time's sake, yeah?

Sure.

Okay, come on.

♪ ♪

- Hey.
- Hey.

Did you get one... a mask?

- Yeah, you too?
- Yeah.

That makes all of us.

Who do you think sent it?

Whoever sent that club invite.

And even though
she said she didn't...

got a pretty good
idea who it was.

The poison dart frog has
only one natural predator,

a snake called...
Leimadophis epinephelus,

which has become immune
to the frog's poison.

The next slide
that I have is of...

Uh... um...

I, uh...

This is not my slide.

I, uh...

This is a mistake.

I'm sorry, I don't know
how that got there.

All right, everyone, just settle down.

You know that was some
kind of cruel joke, right?

That flash drive's been sitting
in my locker for two days.

I bet you Chloe and them
broke in and took it.

Look, just forget about it, okay?

I really don't care.

They're jerks, Ashley.

They always have been.

I get that you're thrilled
to be going out with Darren,

but...

You don't have to
hang out with them.

They're his friends... Meredith.

He didn't even know anybody

until he started playing
soccer with Mark.

My mom's making your
favorite casserole tonight,

and it's been a while
since you've been over.

Hey.

I heard about what
happened, are you okay?

- I'm fine.
- I'm so sorry, that's not cool.

- Even if it's part of the game...
- Look, it's not a big deal.

What's up with that slideshow?

Somebody trying
to mess with you?

Hey, she's good, Kyle.

I'm fine... thanks.

There's a guy who can't take a hint.

But I mean you are
pretty irresistible.

You still coming over tonight?

My dad won't be home
till later and...

I've got a way to make
you forget all this.

- Of course.
- Good.

You know...

we were best friends.

♪ ♪

So, when did your parents get divorced?

Um, a year ago.

You didn't want to live
with your mom and brother?

Well, my, uh, brother and I
never really got along...

so it's just easier this way.

Plus, my dad's really cool.

My dad was too.

He was actually rushing home

to help me with
a school project...

the night that he died.

He was driving too fast

and a woman...
stepped onto the road

and he swerved so that
he wouldn't hit her...

and he ran straight into a pole.

They said he died
almost instantly.

I can't imagine
how hard that was.

It's the "almost" part that
I have the hardest time with.

Hey, I'm gonna go
put on some music.

I'll be right back.

Sorry, I brought it out

Hey, uh, I'm sorry,
I was just messing around.

Were you? Because I
saw somebody outside.

Really?

Maybe I was being stalked.

So are you trying to tell me

that you're not the stalker?

I know we're not
supposed to tell,

but I figured I could tell you.

You're not just saying
that to throw me off?

I swear.

Well, I'm not
the stalker either.

How do I know you're not just
saying that to throw me off?

Where's yours?

Threw it out.

I don't think you
were supposed to.

Who cares? It's just
a stupid game, right?

Now come here before
my dad gets home.

So... does anybody have
any good stalker stories?

Although those slides
were pretty good.

I thought I saw someone
at Darren's house last night.

Ooh, Darren,
did you see anybody?

Uh, no, I was getting
something inside.

Well, that's suspicious.

Well, what about you, Sadie?

I've had someone
banging on my door

and no one's there.

Well, obviously, we're all going to say

that we've been stalked
because if you haven't been

then it will seem
very suspicious.

But that's part of the game.

Hey, I love it, man.

It's a total rush.

So whoever's the stalker,

don't hold back.

The scarier... the better.

Oh, I'm all in.

♪ ♪

My mom says you're a counselor?

That's right.

Um... I help people
work through things

like grief, um...
managing an injury.

I even help students
work their way

through high school hell.

You hit on my mom while
helping her get over my dad?

- Ashley!
- No, no, no, it's okay.

Your mother and I actually
met at the hospital

in the line for the cafeteria.

How 'bout I get dessert ready?

Ashley, would you
like to help me?

- Thank you.
- Mm-hm.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Actually, no, it's not.

Ashley, I understand
you miss your father,

but I'm allowed
to be happy again.

And with Trevor...

for the first time
in two years...

I don't feel sad, so...

maybe you can manage
to kindly ask him

if he'd like a cup of coffee?

Thank you.

Trevor?

Oh, my God.

What? What happened?

I don't know, I just
thought I saw something.

♪ ♪

Do you see anything?

No.

It's probably nothing then.

Just my reflection
or something, I guess.

Sorry, I've just been
a bag of nerves lately.

Where's Trevor?

I don't know.

He wasn't in the house.

I'm right here.

Oh, gosh.

Sorry, I needed to grab my phone.

I've got this patient who
likes to call at all hours.

Everything okay?

Yeah, everything's fine.

Um, except my dessert
is a bit of a wreck.

- Excuse me.
- It's okay.

I'm full anyway.

♪ ♪

Whose do you think it is?

I don't know.

The only person I know

who has any medical
issues is Mark.

What does he have?

Allergies, I think.

The guy ate a granola bar
in practice one time

and his whole face swelled
up like a balloon.

- Jeez.
- Yeah,

he's lucky he had his EpiPen.

- Yo.
- Hey.

Uh, is this Mark's?

Oh, he's got one like that, why?

'Cause I found it in
my backyard last night.

I think the stalker
was there too.

So it's Mark?

Are you surprised?

I mean, he said
he loves the rush.

He's really good
at being sneaky.

You know, he's probably the one
who started this whole thing.

So should I confront him?

Actually, let's all
have some fun.

♪ ♪

You look so hot in this bikini.

Mm.

Actually, I am dying of thirst.

Can you get me a soda?

energetic once I'm hydrated.

Oh, I will hydrate you, baby.

I had an appointment
that ran late.

Well, thanks to Ashley's quick thinking,

he's okay for now.

I would have gotten that pen.

there's not a second reaction.

Never better.

Thanks to all you guys.

What were you doing
at my place anyway?

Well, we know you're
the stalker, so,

we were gonna play a joke
on you to set you up.

practice the other day,

it sure as hell wasn't there.

Who would do that... Chloe?

Unbelievable.

of doing something

so messed up when you're the one

who almost strangled
your brother to death.

guidance counselor last week.

I wouldn't hurt anyone.

Yeah, except yourself.

Yeah, I'm all for that.

I don't know.

I can't believe any one
of us would go that far.

It's crazy, right?

Well.

What did Chloe mean
when she said

that you strangled your brother?

Both of my, uh,
parents worked...

So my brother and I
were on our own a lot.

And he used that time
to torment me.

And one day I just snapped.

And it didn't matter that he
made my life a living hell.

I was the one that got
sent to the shrink.

And that's the real reason
why my parents aren't together.

Because of what I did.

You don't talk to
your brother anymore?

Not if I can help it.

I get it if it freaks you out.

That's why I don't
really talk about it.

But I mean, we've all got
skeletons in our closets.

I'm sorry that I have to be
the one to inform you all

on the untimely passing
of your classmate...

Mark Hernandez.

And I know it's hard to
understand a death at your age

because it shouldn't happen.

Yes, Meredith?

I heard the bees
were in his gym bag.

Isn't that weird?

It is unusual but not unheard of.

Bees will nest indoors or out.

My guess is they were attracted
to something in his bag

and they began to
build their hive.

We had a hive in
our pantry once.

Thanks, Sherlock.

Regardless, it's just a horrible accident.

Okay, so let me get
your papers out.

I took a look at them
over the weekend

and thought they
were mostly good...

although some of you need to pay
a little bit more attention.

When did you get it?

Last night.

- Me too.
- Well, who sent it?

God, Ash, chill.

How can I chill
when Mark is dead

because of our stupid game?

Okay, we don't know that
for sure, all right?

I mean, you heard Ms. Glynner.

It's not uncommon for
bees to build their hive

in a bag or wherever.

So as long as we
don't talk about it,

nobody knows about the game.

It's over.

Then why am I still
being stalked?

I guess I'm the only one then.

You're just being
paranoid, Ashley.

No, I'm not.

Because there was somebody
in my house last night.

What about Sadie? Where is she?

She's probably all
freaked out about Mark

and decided to stay home.

Ha, I mean, you'd think he
was her boyfriend, not mine.

But she is a head case.

Well, she didn't show up
yesterday to Mark's

and she didn't show up today.

the one taking this too far.

Sure I can't get you anything?

I'm fine.

You're not fine, Ashley...

and it's okay not to be.

You know...

A girl died when I
was in high school.

It was horrible.

How did she die?

An accident.

But it doesn't matter how.

Just no parent should ever
have to go through that,

and I understand that...
so much more now.

So... if you're not careful

I might just follow
you to college...

and really embarrass you.

We were supposed
to meet at Sadie's,

and then you texted
you were running late.

Yeah, I had to help
my dad with something.

- What?
- Something in the garage.

Ashley, why are you
giving me the third degree?

We never proved that
Sadie was the stalker.

Well, it wasn't me, all right?

'Cause just so you know,
I'm still being stalked too.

What happened?

When I got home last night,

there was a noose
hung in my backyard.

Why didn't you tell me?

You haven't been
answering my calls.

Really? Or are you just trying

to throw me off your scent

because that's what

No, they had a knife.

I got that, and I understand

that being locked in school

Ashley, where have you been?

What?

Where did that come from?

You tell me.

I found it in your room.

I'm sorry for going
through your things,

but I'm worried
about you, Ashley.

It was so stupid, Mom.

What?

We all got this text
to join this club,

the Stalker Club, and it
was just supposed to be

this, like, game and then...

and then things just
got out of control.

Who sent you the invitation?

I don't know.

Whoever it was, they... they
sent us all these masks

and then they started
stalking all of us.

And it was kind of
funny at first,

and then... and then Mark
went to the hospital,

so we all decided to drop it,
and it just... it didn't stop.

- What didn't stop?
- The stalking.

The next thing, Sadie dies.

She killed herself.

No, she didn't.

It was the stalker.

I saw the stalker in her house

right before we found her body.

Now they're after me, Mom.

They locked me in the school
and... they had a knife.

Okay, that's it, we're
going to the police.

I did.

They just think it's
someone pulling a prank.

Chloe and Darren, they're
the only ones that are left.

It has to be one of them.

Stay right there.

I don't think she wants to
talk to you right now, Darren.

Ashley, please.

What, did you get stalked again?

My mom knows, Darren.

I told her after
I told the police.

The police?

Why?

Because someone tried
to kill me at school.

I... I'm sorry, I didn't know.

Yeah, well, now you do...

so you'll know what to say
when the police question you.

- What do you mean by that?
- The five of us were

the only ones who knew
about Stalker Club, Darren,

so figure it out.

I'm glad you told the police.

Anna I wasn't gonna play...

yet she told all
of you that I was

so I could continue

too far with the stalking.

was an accident.

Then we should've told the cops.

Look, we were teenagers.

And I don't know about you, but
I was scared to say anything.

Why, why are you doing this?

Because 30 years ago,

your mother and all her
friends got together

and formed a clique...
called the Stalker Club.

I found out about it
two years ago...

after my parents sold the house.

I was helping to pack
up my sister's things,

and I found it.

It was just an old
school journal...

but it was all there.

The rules of the game...

the pact not to tell anyone...

and the torment she
was going through.

It all made sense then.

The late-night phone calls...

Hello?

the jumpiness...

Teresa?

What's wrong?

the notes that she would
crumple up and hide,

and the fact that she started
sleeping with the light on...

and the mask I caught
them all wearing...

all leading up until
the day we found her.

- Teresa, come on, wake up.
- I'll call an ambulance.

The police, they said
it was an accident,

that she tripped on her shoes
and fell down the stairs.

Operator, I need an ambulance.

But I know the truth.

It was them.

They killed her.

So now I'm taking from them
what they took from me!

The ones they love the most!

Get the hell off my daughter!

You take one more step and
I am gonna slice her throat.

Beth, listen to me, I'm sorry.

I told them not
to play the game,

but they wouldn't listen.

You're a liar!

It was you, too,
you were one of them.

Beth... once I realized
how horrible the game was,

I told Anna I didn't
want to play,

but she wouldn't listen to me.

And when your sister
fell down the stairs

because Anna took
the game too far,

I told them we had
to tell the police,

but they all told me
that we would go to jail.

Beth, I'm sorry.

I was scared, I was 17.

You took her away from me.

Do you know how that feels?

Please, Beth.

It's been 30 years.

Don't you think it's
time to end the game?
