Casey: "Hello?"
Mysterious voice: "Hello, what's your name?"
Casey: "Why do you want to know my name?"
Mysterious voice: "No reason just curious"
Casey: "I don't think so"
Mysterious voice: "Come on, your not being very friendly"
Casey: "I think you have the wrong number"
Mysterious voice: "I don't think so, Casey!"
Casey: "Who is this? Derek is that you?"
Mysterious voice: "What's your favorite scary movie?"
Casey: "Derek if that's you, you're a dead man"
Mysterious voice: "Who is this Derek you speak of?"
Casey: "Ok I know it's you Derek. Give it up, you're so immature"
Derek: "Hey Space Case. Who are talking to?"
Mysterious voice: "You haven't answered my question: What's your favorite scary movie?"
Casey: "Nobody Derek. Get lost!"
Mysterious voice: "Is that Derek you were yelling at?"
Casey: "None of your business, now if I'm going to hang up. I'm calling the cops if you ever call again"
(Casey hangs up)
(Phone rings)
Casey: "Hello"
Mysterious voice: "Listen here bitch, you hang up on me again and I'll cut you like a pig. But don't worry you won't be the first. Right Lizzie?"
Lizzie: "Casey!"
Casey: "You better not do anything to Lizzie or I'll kill you"
Mysterious voice: "You're not in any position to make the threats. I want to play a game. If you win, Lizzie will be waiting for you unharmed. Lose, well…use your imagination"
Casey: "What's the game?"
Mysterious voice: "Well from my first question, you get infer that I enjoy scary movies. I will ask you a series of questions. Feel free to consult Eric or Derek or whatever that guy's name is. But you have to give me the final answer. First let's warm up: what's your favorite scary movie?"
Casey: "Well I really don't watch horror films, but if I had to pick, I'd say The Shining. Although I preferred the book"
Mysterious voice: "Impressive choice for a grade-grubbing keener. I'd never guess that movie after seeing you everyday in English class."
Casey: "What's your first question? Just give me the question so I can get Lizzie back"
Mysterious voice: "As you wish. Who was the killer in the movie Friday the 13th?"
Casey: "Derek get in here now! I need you're help!"
Derek: "Where's the fire Space Case? Your still on the phone with nobody?"
Casey: "Some psycho is on the phone and has Lizzie right now. He's asking me questions on horror films. If I don't get them right then… then I don't even want to think about it".
Derek: "Ok Casey, what's the question? And for the record, I'm doing this for Lizzie. Put him on speaker"
Casey: "Who was the killer in Friday the 13th?"
Derek: "Jason! Oh wait, never mind. That guy's tricky; it was Mrs. Voorhees in the original".
Casey: "Mrs. Voorhees!"
Mysterious Voice: "Very good. You either thought carefully or saw Scream. Question two: Who directed the movie Halloween?"
Derek: "Which one?"
Mysterious Voice: "Good catch. The original 1978 version"
Derek: "John Carpenter"
Casey: "John Carpenter!"
Mysterious Voice: "Very good. You're doing quite well! Question 3: name two horror films that were parodied in the movie: Scary Movie?"
Derek: Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer.
Casey: Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer.
Mysterious Voice: "Excellent. Only two more questions until you get your precious Lizzie back. Question 4: Which character, not named Michael Myers, appeared in the most Halloween films?"
Derek: "I guess it would be Dr. Loomis. He appeared in 1,2,4,5,6, and the remake".
Casey: Dr. Loomis!
Mysterious Voice: "Correct! Very good, only one more question. What's my favorite scary movie?"
Derek: "Scream would be the obvious choice since this whole conversion is loosely based on the opening scene of Scream. But it could easily be Halloween since there were 2 questions based on it. Your call, Space Case".
Mysterious Voice: "I need an answer"
Casey: "Scream!"
Mysterious Voice: "I'm sorry, that's the wrong answer. My favorite Scary Movie is Nightmare on Elm Street. However, I'm feeling generous! Bonus round!"
Derek: "Hey man that was a trick. There was no way she could have guessed Nightmare on Elm Street"
Mysterious Voice: "Not my problem. Now for the final round, I won't ask a question. Instead you will star in your own horror movie. But first, Derek please leave the room for a minute. This message is for Casey only"
Derek: "Fine I'm gone. I'm going to my room"
(Derek just moved a foot and stood still)
Mysterious Voice: "Derek? You are still in Casey's room. You barely moved!"
(Derek than started stomping out the door and then tiptoed back to into Casey's room)
Mysterious Voice: "Nice try Derek. I saw you tip-toe back!"
Derek: "How did you?"
Mysterious Voice: "That's not important now, is it? Leave, I'll tell Casey to call you when you return".
Casey: "Ok what?"
Mysterious Voice: "Under your pillow you will find a knife. If resembles the one Michael Myers carries around. Now you have to make a choice: do you want Derek to live through this or Lizzie. Bring Derek back to your room and choose carefully"
Casey: "No please don't"
Mysterious Voice: "What's it going to be? Refusal to cooperate could result in nobody living, including you!
