[* CHAPTER 03 *]

RECAP -- Rahzel visits the boarders and tells them that there's a race tommorrow, and even though he finds out about Luther's death from Zoe, he still continues with the race. Rahzel tells the group about his troubles with his girlfriend LaQuisha, who is related to Seeiah. At Garibaldi, Elise won the race, with Mac & Moby right behind her. After the race, Mac is being a sore loser and rude to Eddie & Elise, so Elise punches him in the stomach, while Zoe, Moby & Brodi discuss Luther's murder. Elise & Eddie leave Mac alone, and Mac still is holding his stomach from the pain.

_________________________________________

(The boarders are back at the hotel. Psymon is outside in the snow, Marisol is sleeping, Mac & Kaori are drinking some hot cocoa in the dining room, Moby & Zoe are reading a snowboarding magazine on the couch in the lobby, and everyone else is in their rooms, including Eddie & Elise.)

Eddie: You think another murder will go down tonight, babe?

Elise: (shrugs) Hopefully. Marisol's still pissing me off.

Eddie: Yeah, Luther wasn't the best racer either.

Elise: And ya know what, Eddie?

Eddie: What's that, Elise?

Elise: I wouldn't put it past our cute little Kaori to kill someone.

Eddie: (raises his eyebrows) Doesn't Kaori get squeamish with, like, blood?

Elise: (thinks hard) Um...I think so. But Luther was killed in the dark!

Eddie: Oh yeah. Good, like, point.

(Psymon is outside in the snow still, but Kaori & Mac decided to go join him.)

Psymon: (picks up some snow & eats it; sees Kaori, Mac) HEY, what are you losers doing here?

Kaori: Konichiwa to you too. Psymon, we can be here if we want. *giggle*

Mac: Yeah, forreal man, step off!

Psymon: (looks confused) Alright... (throws snowball at Kaori)

Kaori: (falls over, flails in the snow like a fish) I'm melting! *giggle*

Psymon: What the hell?

Mac: Hey man! You BETTER say that snowball slipped. (helps Kaori up)

Psymon: (throws snowball at Mac) No... but that one did.

Kaori: Psymon, you make my bones sad! *giggle, cry*

Psymon: And you make Japan look sad. You murderer! Muahaha.

_________________________________________

(Everyone has met at the lobby later that night for a group meeting. Elise & Eddie are sitting on the biggest couch, with Brodi. Marisol is trying to sleep in a recliner & JP is trying to fix his cell phone. Psymon is elbowing Kaori, who's sitting next to Mac.)

Zoe: (casually) SO! Anyone wanna admit to killing our fatass friend Luther?

Elise: (sees Luther's body next to her) Oh my god! His body's still here.

Seeiah: That's kinda gross. Whoo! I rule!

Mac: I think it's kinda smelling...worse than Luther when he was alive, haha.

Moby: Here, Brodi, mate, let's go dispose of this heap of fat.

Brodi: Ok. This is good karma for me. (him & Moby leave with Luther's body)

Eddie: (grabs Elise's hand and looks at her watch) In 2 minutes, it'll be the same time Luther got, like, killed last night!

JP: Really? How fazzinating. (yawns)

Elise: (sneers at JP) He was YOUR friend, you don't even care!

JP: Shit happenzz, my dear.

Mac: Well... Luther WAS shit!

Seeiah: (stops doing the disco) Yeah, but you can't just "happen"...

Elise: I agree with our soul sista here. Mac, you're a dumbass.

Mac: What'd you say, yo? You ready for a smackdown?

Elise: (laughs) Um, Mac, you mean a smackdown from ME, right?

Mac: Oh yeah, I forgot. (clutches stomach)

Zoe: Elise, stop provoking him. We don't need another murder on our hands.

Eddie: Zelda, don't tell Elise what, like, to do!

Moby: (enters again with Brodi, cleaning his hands) Alright mates, all taken care of!

Seeiah: So, what do we do? Just wait for someone else to get killed?

Kaori: Yeah, I think. (elbows Psymon) *giggle*

Psymon: (elbows Kaori) Pretty much!

Seeiah: (picks up a magazine) Aight, cool... I rule! Seeiah in da house!

(The lights flicker.)

Kaori: (screams) It's happening again! AHH! NOO! *giggle*

Brodi: Kaori, calm down. You are safe with Buddha.

Mac: Yeah, but Brodi, you're not safe from a Mac Smackdown!

Elise: (moans) Mac, damn, just give it a rest.

Zoe: Is everyone except for Eddie ok?

Eddie: Zelda, that was, like, rude!

Psymon: (laughs manically) I know I'm ok.

Kaori: I'm ok, besides the fact that Psymon's making his way down my pants! *giggle*

Seeiah: (laughs) Whoops, sorry, that was me.

Kaori: You're still doing it! Ew!

Seeiah: I know I am.

Marisol: Little girl, big air!

(The lights go out, everyone screams.)

Kaori: Wow, I'm popular! I've got six hands all over me. *giggle*

Moby: Mates, is everyone safe?

Zoe: I am, you are, Kaori is.

Eddie: Me & Elise are fine!

Elise: Yeah, we're fine. Please, make Marisol be the next victim!

Eddie: No thinking, like, aloud, babe! Man, I would kill Zelda and Brodi if I could...

Zoe: (clears throat) Excuse me?!

(The lights turn back on)

Elise: Oh my god! (sees Brodi's body, stabbed in the chest) Brodi's dead! Someone killed him! Someone murdered him! He's dead!

Seeiah: (throws magazine at Elise) Um, yeah bitch, we get the point.

Moby: Nice one, Eddie. You said you wanted to kill Brodi.

Mac: (nods, takes hands off of Kaori) Yeah, forreal! It musta been you.

Zoe: Well, whatever, we're not going to solve this tonight.

JP: Yezz, we should all juzzt get our beauty zzleep.

Eddie: Moby, like, I didn't kill Brodi.

Kaori: Well, let's go to bed. (knife falls out of pocket)

Moby: (sees the knife) Bloody hell! It was Kaori!

Psymon: Dude, Moby, we're um, talking about it TOMMORROW, not tonight!

Elise: Seeiah, you bitch! I have a papercut on my eye!

(Everyone slowly gets up and goes to their rooms, tired, but Seeiah stays behind.)

Seeiah: (looks at Brodi's body) I'm sorry, Brodi. I always wanted to have hot, black sex with your meditating ass. But I guess now that can't happen, right? Well, at least we all know you're probably hangin' out with that fatass Buddha, cashing in all your karma points for some folding chair or something. You know how it is. I rule! Seeiah rules! Aight, I'm more tired than R. Kelly after a birthday party at Chuckie Cheese's. Maybe I should throw your body away or some shit like that...nah. Not tonight. (leaves)
