INT. WOODSBORO HOSPITAL - ROOM 242 - CONT'D

Kirby stills lays leaned up in her hospital bed. Nikki is now slouched up in a chair, flipping through channels on the TV.

NIKKI
They say when they're letting you go home?

KIRBY
They better let me go home tonight. I just gotta wait on what the doctor says.

NIKKI
Yeah.

Nikki comes across the first STAB playing on TV. Kirby notices.

KIRBY
(laughs)
Still think it's in bad taste?

NIKKI
(chuckles)
Definitely.

KIRBY
Sidney's character has definitely evolved since the first movie.

NIKKI
She's just a bit more on the aggressive side now than the defensive.

Kirby just stares at the TV as on screen, Sidney and Billy are talking at school.

EXT. WOODSBORO COMMUNITY COLLEGE - PARKING GARAGE - CONT'D

It's dark and quiet. The only lights are the ones by the elevator and outside the
parking garage entrance. Every footstep echoes throughout the enclosed area.

Sidney opens her door and enters her car, closing the door behind her. She then sets
her bag in the passenger seat and looks through the rear-view mirror, which seems to
have been moved. Before Sidney can react- A hand wraps around her mouth and a knife
blade is put to her neck. Sidney lets out a muffled scream as GHOSTFACE SLOWLY MAKES
HIMSELF VISIBLE FROM THE BACK SEAT.

The menacing voice of Ghostface is heard.

GHOSTFACE
Sh, sh, sh. You know, you make things difficult Sidney. You see, the plan was
to leave you alive until the final act, but what's the fun in that.

Just then- Sidney kicks down on the seat adjustment, sliding her seat backwards,
SLAMMING INTO GHOSTFACE, making him let go of Sidney and lower his knife, but
not before NIPPING THE SIDE OF SIDNEY'S NECK with his blade. This also causes the
the killer to get stuck.

Sidney uses the time she bought to throw open her car door and take off running
towards the stairwell entrance.

Ghostface grabs the front seat and shoves it forward, freeing himself. He then
looks toward Sidney.

Just before making it to the stairwell entrance, Sidney looks back to see the killer
gone and her back door open.

The soundtrack stings.

Sidney cautiously opens the door to the stairwell, letting it close behind her.
She then proceeds up the stairs to the hospital entrance. She opens the door
but doesn't enter. She has an idea.

EXT. WOODSBORO COMMUNITY HOSPITAL - STAIRWELL - CONT'D

Ghostface enters the stairwell, proceeding upstairs just as Sidney did.
Making it to the top, he sees the door open. He looks around before making
his way to the door. The suspense builds up as the killer makes his way
closer to the door.

Ghostface throws open the door and almost immediately, SIDNEY JABS THE KILLER
IN THE THROAT with her hand, stumbling him backwards. SHE THEN DROPKICKS
THE KILLER IN THE FACE, knocking him down the stairwell. HE HITS THE FIRST CORNER
HARD, but he still keeps his grip on the knife. He then tumbles down the next flight of
stairs, to the bottom, where HE SLAMS HIS HEAD INTO THE RAILING, losing his grip on
the knife this time.

Sidney looks over the railing, seeing the killer, appearing unconscious at the bottom
of the stairwell. She then pulls the fire alarm, next the the hospital entrance.

Sidney then makes her way down the stairwell to where the killer lays. She
kicks the knife away then looks down on the person wearing the Ghostface attire.
She remembers how much hell her life has endured from people hiding behind
this fucking costume. SIDNEY HAS HAD ENOUGH, SHE GRABS THE BOTTOM OF THE
MASK, PULLING IT OFF, ALONG WITH THE HOOD, REVEALING. . . .

.

.

JAKE!

He is definitely out cold. His head has blood running down to the bottom
of his face from where he slammed into the railing at the bottom.

Sidney stares down at him with curiosity because she doesn't really know who he is.

EXT. WOODSBORO COMMUNITY HOSPITAL - CONT'D

Moments pass as the hospital has become a huge hot spot. Reporters, newscasters,
journalists, and everyone is outside the hospital as Jake Collins is put in a police cruiser,
still wearing the Ghostface robe. He sports a menacing smirk.

Dewey stands at at a podium with microphones attached to it, giving a
public announcement. Camera flashes light up the area.

DEWEY
As of eleven-forty-six tonight, a man has been taken into custody on charges
for the murders of Josh Walker, Lacey Roberts, and earlier tonight, Allyson Taylor.
We are almost certain that we have our man.

The media begin throwing questions at Dewey

REPORTER#1
Who is the suspect?

NEWSCASTER#1
Do you think there might be another killer?

REPORTER#2
Sheriff, are you sure you have the right man?

JOURNALIST
Do you think that the people of Woodsboro are finally safe?

Dewey becomes overwhelmed and answers the questions the best of his
ability.

DEWEY
I'm permitted to release the suspects name as of now but we are certain
that we have our man. The suspect has already confessed to committing
the murders.

Camera flashes continue to light up the scene.

NEWSCASTER#2
Do you think it's over sheriff?

REPORTER#1
Do you think there might be another killer?

Overwhelmed, Dewey ends his public announcement with...

DEWEY
The killer is caught. The people of Woodsboro can rest easy again.

Dewey walks away from the stand, to Sidney who is standing right
outside of the hospital entrance.

SIDNEY
Do you think it's over, Dewey?

DEWEY
I sure hope so Sid.

SIDNEY
Me too.

Kirby and Nikki exit the hospital and observe their surroundings.
Red and blue police lights flood the area, where hundreds of people surround.
Camera flashes continue to light up the area.

NIKKI
Holy shit! This blew up quick.

KIRBY
It always does.

Kirby and Nikki meet with Sidney.

KIRBY
You okay, Sidney?

SIDNEY
Yeah, I'm really sorry Kirby.

KIRBY
About what?

SIDNEY
Getting you and your friends involved in this mess.

KIRBY
That's not your fault. It's not your fault that Jake turned
out to be some kind of psycho.

SIDNEY
I still have this uneasy feeling though...

Kirby interrupts Sidney, finishing her sentence.

KIRBY
... That it might not be over?

SIDNEY
It's just never this easy.

KIRBY
Well I hope it is.

NIKKI
The people you let in your life, I swear.

SIDNEY
Yeah, I know that feeling.

NIKKI
Oh my God! I can't believe I slept with a psychopath!

Sidney kinda smirks, knowing that in the past, she had done the same
thing.

KIRBY
In a way, I guess we almost all fell for the same thing.

Sidney looks back at the police car, seeing Jake stare them all down.
That uneasy feeling grows a little stronger.

Nathan meets with Sidney, Kirby, and Nikki.

NATHAN
Hey Kirby, you almost ready to go?

KIRBY
Yeah.

Nathan looks to Sidney.

NATHAN
Thank you Sidney. You earned my respect for sure.

Sidney smiles but it fades away.

KIRBY
Be careful Sidney.

SIDNEY
You too, be safe.

NIKKI
Don't worry, I won't let her jump out of anymore windows.

They all laugh.

KIRBY
(chuckles)
Hey, decisions were made based on my options of survival.

NIKKI
(chuckles)
Yeah, yeah.

SIDNEY
You take it easy too, Nikki.

NIKKI
Oh, always. It's not me you gotta worry about.
(points at Kirby while she's not looking)

Sidney laughs as they walk away, disappearing into the crowd.

Sidney then looks back to Jake once more, sitting in the police cruiser, still
eyeing her down with that same stupid smirk on his face.
