Plot[]

SPOILERS AHEAD

Allison calls her dad, desperate to tell him what’s happened following the incident involving Johnny. When she drives back, she finds Bruce’s phone on the table; messages from Lyla include a video of the two having sex.

Next, Allison meets Margot and Riley. Margot is pretty shook up, given her best friend has just died, while Dylan appears and meets them in the parking lot. They’re convinced that Allison is the one responsible. Allison sticks up for her sister and decides she couldn’t possibly be responsible.

They continue to refuse getting the police involved either and decide to follow the clues themselves. Dylan and Riley drive home together. All of this is, of course, a ploy to make sure no one is left on their own.

Allison gets pulled over by police for using her phone while driving. The detective happens to be Lyla, who tells her she needs to go home. When she shows up though, the same black pick-up truck from before continues to stalk her, skidding past the drive and charging off.

Inside, Bruce calls Allison out for the phone gag and she eventually opens up about what happened to Johnny. News of Johnny’s death sweeps across town too, as Allison continues to break character and smoke. She uses the excuse that it “makes her feel close” to Allison but it just arouses suspicions.

Meanwhile, Lyla shows up at Kelly’s house, who is Eric’s wife. The word “trash!” is written on the outside in graffiti, along with “coach killer” too. Riley is outside watching all of this, but she soon leaves when her mom stirs up trouble with the other officer, claiming he’s pulling a gun on her.

Now, Bruce checks the CCTV footage while this is going on and notices the black pick-up truck outside the previous night. While this is going on, Allison continues to communicate with the hidden number, deciding to meet and keep everything a secret from the police.

That evening, the kids all meet in the cave. Riley believes she saw Allison (Lennon) breathe that night, backing up the idea that she’s not really dead. When the kids all join Allison and head into the snack shop, Dale is found dead. The police show up and they see his head rammed into a slushie machine, and his body completely blue.

At the scene, police find goat guts in the dumpster, absconded surveillance footage from the time in question, and a lot of drugs hidden in the corndogs.

Johnny’s head is left at the police station, just sitting out on the wall. At the same time, Allison receives a message from the mystery stalker, claiming to be Lennon, with a picture of scars to prove as much. There’s even an accompanying video message of Dylan and Lennon having sex too.
