Jackie gets out of the shower. She still has her natural beauty from when she was a teenager. She grabs her towel and starts drying herself off. She leaves the shower curtain open.
Jackie goes to her bedroom that the bathroom is connected to. On her bed is a pair of clothes that she's set for herself to wear for the day. As she begins to get dress, we see a large black figure...which we cannot make out...enters her bedroom and goes into the bathroom without her knowing it.
Moments later, we see Jackie, fully dressed, go into the bathroom. She starts putting makeup on herself. She smiles as if to gloat to herself about how pretty she is. Typical Jackie. She's so concentrated on herself that she isn't even aware that the shower curtain, which she had left opened moments ago, is now closed.
JACKIE: I am the prettiest girl in the world. Bitches are jealous of me.
A knife is heard scraping from inside her shower.
JACKIE: (spinning to the shower) What the hell?
Jackie is confused and startled. She slowly approaches the shower. She opens it…
X slams his knife into Jackie. She screams out. He pushes her down, which pulls the knife out. Jackie falls to the floor. On impact we -
FLASHBACK (B&W)
We're in the Forman basement in the mid-late 70s. Jackie and Kelso are together. Laurie walks by looking sexy….purposely walking in a sexual manner to get Kelso's attention and make Jackie jealous.
JACKIE: How could you like that whore, Michael? She's full of diseases. She's a piece of trash!
BACK TO JACKIE'S ATTACK
X starts blowing punches and stabs at Jackie. Each blow gives us several flashback incidents of Jackie insulting Laurie or hurting her feelings.
The final flashback is of "CAT FIGHT CLUB" (S2-EP25) when Jackie attacks Laurie and eventually wins the fight.
Jackie is on the floor. Injured. Crying. X grabs her by the hair, pulling her head back. Jackie knows what's about to happen and begins to plead for her life.
JACKIE: NO! PLEASE! NOOO!
Her pleas are ignored. X slashes Jackie's throat with his knife. He carelessly and coldly throws her head down and there is no sign of life in Jackie anymore. Her blood forms a pool around her corpse.
Jacqueline Beulah Burkhart...is DEAD.
Her death is confirmed later as we dissolve to a few hours later as a white sheet is put over her body. Police are investigating the scene of the crime.
At the Forman's, the entire "Family" as we will now refer to the main characters (Eric, Donna, their kids, Hyde, Kelso, Fez, Femez, Betsy, Nancy, Kitty, Red, and Bob) is mourning Jackie. Kelso and Fez are taking it the hardest. They loved her the most.
KELSO: I never stopped loving her. Even after twenty years of not being with her. I never stopped loving her. I…(Gets too emotional)
Kelso breaks down crying. Hyde consoles him. It's a sincere real crying from Kelso. Donna can't take it anymore. She goes into the kitchen and Eric follows her.
Donna cries over the sink. Eric goes over to her and rubs his wife's back.
ERIC: Are you okay, Donna?
DONNA: No, Eric. I'm not. Jackie was my best friend. I know she said shit to me but she said it to everyone. That was her way of letting us know she loved us. She was a bitch. But she was my best friend. My sister basically. I loved her very much. I can't believe she's gone.
ERIC: I know.
The younger Forman couple hug each other. Donna continues to cry.
Kelso, Hyde, and Fez - All three of Jackie's boyfriends - mourn her together on top of the very thing they usually fell off of, usually while they argued over her...which she hated them being on. THE WATER TOWER.
KELSO: All those times we fell off of here because we argued over her.
HYDE: The times she blamed each of us for one of us falling off of this.
FEZ: And the time Jackie and I had our first kiss.
They bow their heads down, trying not to cry in front of each other. But the pain is just too much. Even Hyde begins crying.
HYDE: You know what we should do in honor of the woman who hated us falling off of this thing?...JUMP!
KELSO: Good idea.
FEZ: Maybe we'll die and join her.
Hyde and Kelso glance at each other. The idea of dying to join Jackie sounds tempting to them.
KELSO: Well, let's see what happens.
The three guys get up and go over the railing. They're in jumping position.
KELSO: Now remember you, guys. We jump together this time. No pretending to jump and only I end up jumping. Alright?
Hyde and Fez nod in agreement. All three look down.
FEZ: ONE…
KELSO: TWO…
HYDE: THREE!
And it happens. All three let go and jump off together. Their position and posture in the fall is extremely dangerous. Of all the moments that they could die from falling/jumping off the water tower...it's now. And clearly they do not care.
BAM!
All three land on the ground. There's movement. They're okay.
FEZ: Well, we're still alive.
HYDE: Yeah. It didn't work.
KELSO: (Looks up at the sky) That was for you, Jackie.
They get up. Despite the height and the danger of their jump, they're just fine.
The next day, Kitty is in the kitchen cooking some cookies. Femez walks in through the sliding glass door.
FEMEZ: Hello, Miss Kitty.
KITTY: Hello, Femez. Did Fez teach you to say that?
FEMEZ: Yeah.
KITTY: He use to call me that all the time.
FEMEZ: Cute.
Nancy comes in from the living room.
NANCY: Grandma, are we still going to the park?
Kitty is feeling guilty. She totally forgot and she's not able to go.
KITTY: I'm sorry, honey. I've just been so upset over Auntie Jackie. I can't take you today.
NANCY: But you promised.
KITTY: I know, Nancy. But that was before...Auntie Jackie went away.
FEMEZ: I'll take her.
KITTY: Are you sure?
FEMEZ: Yeah. I'd love to.
Nancy looks up to Femez. They smile at each other.
FEMEZ: What's your name, beautiful?
NANCY: Nancy.
FEMEZ: I'm Femez. You want me to go with you to the park?
NANCY: Yeah.
FEMEZ: (Offers her hand) Then let's go.
Nancy takes Femez's hand and they go out together.
At the park, Femez is pushing Nancy on the swing. It's a sweet moment between these two. They were strangers a few hours ago. But Nancy and Femez has quickly become best friends. Femez looks like a young mother taking her daughter out for fun. A quick connection was made between them.
Out of nowhere, Jeff and Veronica run up to them.
JEFF: Hey, Nancy.
NANCY: Jeff. Veronica.
Bob and Donna appear.
DONNA: Femez.
FEMEZ: Hey, Donna.
DONNA: I thought Kitty was suppose to take Nancy to the park.
FEMEZ: She was but she's still upset over Jackie.
BOB: I'll be right, Donna. I gotta go number two.
DONNA: Okay, Dad. Go. We didn't need to know that.
Femez laughs.
Jeff, Veronica, and Nancy go running around the playground. Donna and Femez sit on a bench and watch the kids.
DONNA: So how are things between you and Fez?
FEMEZ: What do you mean? We're just...
DONNA: Oh, I know. But I mean; have you two feel like you found what you both been looking for in each other?
FEMEZ: I think so. Fez is the father I never had. And apparently I'm the daughter he never had.
DONNA: You doing okay after what happened in Kenosha?
FEMEZ: Yeah. That was so frightening. And to think this guy is the one who killed Jackie and is threatening Fez and everyone else. It's scary.
Eric arrives with two water bottles. He gives one to Donna. He realizes that he looks bad for not bringing one to Femez.
ERIC: Sorry, Femez. I didn't know that you were here, too.
FEMEZ: Oh, it's okay…(She gets up)...I can get one myself. I'll be back. You'll watch Nancy?
DONNA: Of course.
FEMEZ: Thanks.
Femez walks off.
ERIC: Where's your Dad?
DONNA: Oh, he went to the bathroom.
In the Men's bathroom, Bob is on a toilet. He hears the bathroom door open. Someone (A MAN) walks in. Since we're in Bob's stall, we don't see who the man is. The man passes Bob's stall and goes into the one next to him.
Bob does his business and flushes the toilet. He exits the stall and goes to a sink. He washes his hands. He is unaware that the man...who we come to realize is X...is slowly opening his stall door.
Bob turns away from the sink, allowing X to come out of the stall. Bob dries his hands off with paper towels. X is slowly watching and following him. Bob throws the paper towels into the garbage and heads for the door. Bob makes it to the door and goes to push it when - X grabs him. X pulls Bob out of our view.
We don't see what happens but we hear everything. Bob cries out as he's being murdered. We hear the stabbing occur off screen.
A few minutes later, Donna is knocking at the men's bathroom door.
DONNA: Dad! Are you still in there?
Eric comes up from behind.
ERIC: What's up?
DONNA: Dad has been in there for a long time.
ERIC: I'll check on him.
Eric walks in.
ERIC: Bob?
Eric looks around in the bathroom. He sees Bob's legs in a "sitting position" under the stall he was in.
ERIC: You okay, Bob?
Eric goes to Bob's stall. He knocks the stall's door but it's unlocked and opens. Eric is horrified when he sees - BOB'S DEAD BODY.
ERIC SCREAMS LIKE A GIRL!
His screaming turns into police sirens as we transition into the next scene. The police car that was sirening on is turned off when the officer joins other officers at the scene at the park.
Femez is tending to Nancy, Jeff, and Veronica as they're crying. Eric is holding Donna, whose devastated at the murder of her father.
The Coroner's paramedics wheels Bob's sheet covered body. There is blood soaking on top. Donna starts sobbing when she sees it. Femez shields Nancy, Jeff, and Veronica from seeing this.
Red, Tyler, and Fez arrive on time as Bob's body is being loaded into the Morgue's bus. They cannot believe this has happened. Red goes to Nancy.
RED: Come here, Nancy.
Red picks her up and holds her. She cries on his shoulders.
RED: I'm so glad that you're okay, baby.
NANCY: I'm scared, Grandpa.
RED: I know, honey. I am, too.
Fez and Femez hug.
FEZ: Are you okay?
FEMEZ: Yeah. But I just can't believe it. He killed Bob. He was here...while I was with Nancy. He must have followed Nancy and I.
Fez hugs her as she gets emotional.
Tyler approaches Eric and Donna.
TYLER: I am so sorry, Donna.
He hugs her as she continues to cry.
DONNA: How could this have happened? Why my Dad? He never did anything to Laurie. He never said anything to her.
TYLER: I don't know.
Later, Red is driving with Nancy in the back with her big brother. Fez is on the passenger's side. Behind their car is Eric and Donna's car.
FEZ: First Jackie and now Bob.
RED: We've got to find him before he hurts anyone else. The hunt is on.
TYLER: And we're the ones being hunted.
RED: Then let's make the hunted the hunter.
