INT. hospital- morning
Sidney is at the hospital watching Jill sleep peacefully. Dawn walks in with two cups of coffee she hands one to Sidney.
Sidney: Thanks.
Dawn: Owen went to pick Steve up from the aiprort. What exactly happened? I thought you were both dead?
Sidney: Nope. With help from the F.B.I we faked our deaths.
Dawn: Why. Why isn't Jill in jail? She killed innocent people.
Sidney: She was punished. She spent time in a psychiatric hospital. She's changed.
Dawn is still visibly shaken. Sidney grabs her hand.
Sidney: I'm sorry you got involved with this. I didn't know you and Steve were cousins.
Dawn: Was our friendship real?
Sidney nods.
Sidney: I was a little worried when we first moved here. When she met you it was a big relief.
Dawn: Your positive she changed?
Sidney: To be honest at first I was unsure.
Dawn: When were you sure?
Sidney: 24 hours ago when she tried to hurt herself. If she hadn't changed there'd be another ghost face killer roaming the streets as we speak.
Dawn: I can't believe Jill and you are alive? What made Jill do those things?
Sidney: It's my fault. Jill and I aren't cousins. We're sisters.
Dawn looks shocked.
Dawn: Sisters?
Sidney nods.
Dawn: That still doesn't explain why Jill killed my cousins friends.
Sidney: Bullying.
Dawn stays silent seeing the connection Sidney was talking about.
Sidney: She tried doing the right thing. As you know Jill's father died and her mother drank herself into Alcohol. Steve was already thought to be dead so there was nobody to get her back on the road that she had started skimming.
Dawn: Can we get her back on that road now?
Sidney: We can't but Steve and Kirby can.

INT. Car- night
Steve and Owen are on there way to the hospital. They haven't said anything the entire time they were together.
Steve: Why am I here?
Owen: I figured we could use your help.
Steve: Jill tried to kill herself didn't she.
Owen slams on the breaks bringing the car to a stop. He looks over at Steve puzzled.
Owen: How did you know?
Steve: Something didn't add up. Why the fuck did you call me here?
Owen: We wanted you to talk to Jill.
Steve: Jill Roberts is dead.
Steve says this with a look of anger. Owen looks back at the road.
Owen: Come on dude, she's changed.
Steve: Hass he? Instead of killing others she tried to kill herself.
Owen: You know what? That girl went through hell for you. As much as I could be there for her ,even as her boyfriend, I was never you.
Steve: So me dying was excuse for trying to kill her FRIENDS?
Owen: Was you leaving Woodsboro after what had happened the best idea? I mean people didn't care about your friends. They were all scared of you.
Steve flips out about this.
Steve: Why the hell do people keep saying I have a special gift and people only liked my friends because of me? They're great including Jill and Charlie.
Owen: You never gave somebody a second chance?
Steve: I have. But why should Jill get a second chance when Olivia and Robbie don't?
Owen stays silent.
Steve: And it's not just me. Do you know how many sleepless nights Kirby had. You know how many times I had to go there in the middle of the night because her mom couldn't get her to stop crying? I mean Jessica and Jill were like sisters. Alicia and Jill had gotten very close. It wouldn't be fair to put them through that.
Owen: Fair? Being strip searched for drugs isn't fair. Turning to your friends and having them slam the door in your face isn't fair. Having an alcholic mom who doesn't know your name isn't fair.
Steve feels bad about this.
Owen: When she needed you most you weren't here to protect her. No matter how much had Jill changed after yours and her father's death she wouldn't kill people purposely. I mean strip searched? Seriously?
Steve: I agree. There never should have been a set of circumstances where she was strip searched.
Owen: You think they would have done something so stupid had you been around. As much as everybody might hate Jill that one boy's mom feels a whole lot better.
Owen and Steve pull up to the hospital.
Owen: Show time.

Alicia: Who knows. With Steve he always does crap like this I wouldn't even be surprised anymore when he just vanishes.
Kirby: I just get worried.'
Alicia smiles.
Alicia: You have nothing to worry about one thing we know about Steve is that he can take care of himself.

Brian: What's the occasion?
Jessica: Steve's out of town.
Brian smiles.
Brian: Where'd he go?
Jessica: Nobody knows. Not even Kirby.
Brian: Don't you and Kirby feel awkward?
Jessica looks up at him curious.
Jessica: About what?
Brian: Your living under the same roof as her boyfriend.
Jessica: Kirby and I talked it out. There's nothing that going to come between us. She's my best friend.
Brian: I guess that's true.
Jessica smiles.
Jessica: You know. The real reason I want this barbeque is because I want us to stop keeping secrets from one another.
Brian: Whose keeping secrets?
Jessica: Well uh you.
Brian: What the fuck you talking about?
Jessica: Why didn't you tell anybody that Kirby was having trouble with this one guy?
Brian: She wanted me to keep it quiet.
Jessica: Was she raped?
Brian: I don't know. She was drunk Jess. It could have been consensual.
Jessica: Should we talk to the cops? I don't want her to see her get hurt.
Brian: She's going to hate us if we do this.
Jessica: I don't want tos ee her get hurt. I've seen this Charlie guy. He can hurt her in more ways then one.
Brian: I think we should talk to her parents.

Sidney: She was bullied.
Steve: Why?
Sidney: She tried doing the right thing and it kept on turning into the wrong thing. The whole school turned on her.
Steve: Like last time? Why would she try and kill herself?
Sidney: Because she didn't think she could control herself. She didn't want to become the very thing that destroyed her.
Steve nods.
Steve: Not to be mean Sidney but I can't do this.
Steve gets up and Sidney follows him and pushes him against the wall.
Sidney: Why won't you talk to her. She was you friend. She is always talking about all the time. Why don't you help us here. She'll listen to you.
Steve: Fine. I'll talk to her.
Sidney goes in first as notices Jill is finally awake. She smiles at her little sister and Jill smiles back. Steve comes into the room and Jill's smile goes into a face of shock.

Jill: What are you doing here?
Steve: Owen called me. Told me what happened. I heard what's been going on.
Jill: Are you angry?
Steve hesitates.
Steve: At first I was angry that they asked me tomce. However, I figured they must have eben desperate if they called me.
Jill: Steve it was bad. Everybody was against me. Even people who don't know who I am hate me.
Steve: Why?
Jill: Because I did something to the alpha male of the school. Now everybody hates me except for

Jill laughs a good laugh something we haven't seen from her in a while. Sidney comes into the room.
Sidney: Jill? Why are you out of bed?
Jill: UH?
Steve: She's hungry. Her and I can't talk if she is hungry.
Sidney: But she can't just leave. Can she?
Steve: The girl is fine. She's not injured or anything. She didn't even take a single pill.
