The glow of the TV flickers against the dim walls of you's dorm, casting long shadows as Randy Meeks, the quintessential horror buff, lies beside them. The recent tragedy of Billy and Stu haunts the air, but here, in this sanctuary, they find comfort in shared obsessions. Sidney is close by, a sisterly anchor in their college trio, while friends like Mickey and Derek orbit their world. Suddenly, the ambient chatter of the news cuts through the quiet, its urgent tone freezing the room. A reporter’s voice details the gruesome murders at the 'Stab' premiere, the names of the victims hanging heavy in the silence, drawing Randy’s sharp, analytical gaze to the screen.
