Cannibal Mukbang (2023)

[bunniefuu]

[suspenseful music]

[rabbit thuds]

[gentle music]

Secret heart

My crippling anxiety

And I'm paranoid

Whenever f*cking strangers

Glance at me

There's an ache in my head

And that's when

I tend to forget

'Cause sometimes

lovin' hurts

[gentle music continues]

[soft rock music]

[door creaks]

[door bells chime]

[footsteps tapping]

[door bells chime]

[packet rustling]

[footsteps tapping]

[wind whooshes]

And I was the last to know

Like an animal

It's the end of the world

But you give me a life

You gave me your love

[cash register clicking]

[drawer thuds]

[footsteps tapping]

[bag crunches]

Oops, sorry.

[Ash chuckles]

Here you go.

Oh, my God, thanks.

These are my favorite flavor.

Really?

It's mine too.

No way?

They're kind of weird,

don't you think?

Yeah. [laughs awkwardly]

Uh, I'm running late

for an appointment.

At 2 am?

[Mark] Uh, yep.

Okay.

[barcode scanner beeps]

[Ash chuckles]

-[gentle music]

-[footsteps tapping]

[singer vocalizing]

-[tires screeching]

-[car crashes]

[pensive music]

[packet rustles]

[ominous music]

[Ash gasps]

Oh, my God. [sighs]

[footsteps tapping]

Thank God you are okay.

And no fever. Great.

What happened?

[Ash] Please

don't call the cops.

No, wait, I'm not-

I mean, it was so dark

and I didn't see you

and then all of a sudden, you

were, like, right behind me.

I swear, I was only going,

like, five miles an hour.

And then I saw that metal

plate thing on your head

and thought maybe

I had done that,

even though there's no

way I could have.

Thank God you're okay.

I'm fine.

I, um, my head hurts a little.

Oh.

Let me get you

something for that.

Don't move a muscle!

[bed creaks]

[mysterious music]

All I could find is

extra strength aspirin.

-[Mark gasps]

-[bed thuds]

Oh, that's, that's

great, thanks.

Wait!

You can't take that

on an empty stomach.

[Mark spits]

[gentle music]

This is...

Thank you.

Um, but actually, I'm trying out

the whole Paleo caveman thing,

so I, I've got

some stuff to lose.

Well, I think you look great.

And besides, like, food is fuel.

I don't know about you

but I'm starving.

[teeth chomping]

Come on, don't make this weird.

[Mark chuckles]

[teeth chomping]

This is amazing.

Seriously.

It's so.

[teeth chomping]

It's like juicy. [chuckles]

[Ash chuckles]

You know what I just realized?

What?

I don't even know your name.

[Ash chuckles]

Oh.

Yeah, right.

That's something that

people do, right?

Introduce themselves.

Um.

I'm Ash. [chuckles]

Uh.

Um.

[both chuckle]

I'm Mark.

It's nice to meet you, Ash.

[food clatters]

So...

What's actually up with that

metal thing in your head?

I was in a car

accident when I was a kid.

Of course, I hit the

guy with brain damage!

Nothing a little therapy

and booze can't fix.

You know what, it is

actually kind of cool.

[lips smack]

-Can I like-

-Um.

[Ash chuckles]

Sure.

[metal clanking]

Um.

What do you do?

Mm.

A lot of internet things.

What do you do

do for, like, work?

It's a little embarrassing.

[teeth chomping]

It can't be more

embarrassing than what I do.

Oh, really?

-[food crunches]

-Mm-hmm.

Oh, okay, wait, let me guess.

You...

You're a coder.

No wait, okay.

You are a professional gamer.

No, those are both

[Ash chuckles]

cool things.

Um.

I'm, um,

a customer service guy for

a meal delivery service.

Which one?

You know Yellow Mitten?

Yeah, of course,

I love their stuff.

They actually sponsor me.

[chip crackles]

Please tell me you're

not an influencer.

Mm.

[food crackles]

Not exactly.

Well, kind of.

Okay, okay.

You told me.

So I'm gonna tell you.

I eat stuff

online for people,

but I don't usually, like,

show my whole face or

anything like that.

You mukbang?

[screams] Oh, my God!

I can't believe you

actually know what that is!

Well, what's

more embarrassing?

The one who mukbangs

or the one who watches

the mukbang? [chuckles]

Oh, definitely the one

who watches the mukbang.

-Ouch.

-Mm-hmm.

[both chuckling]

No, but, like.

Seriously, I think

that is so cool

that you understand what I do.

Like, most people either

don't know what it is

or they think it's

a piece of cake.

You're the director,

a writer, a producer, a chef,

a camera op.

An actress!

I mean, I could

never do that.

Exactly.

Seriously though, this is.

How did you cook this?

This is, like, beyond

good. [chuckles]

Secret family recipe.

If I told you I'd

have to k*ll you.

[Mark chuckles softly]

[Ash chuckles softly]

[Radio Reporter] The body

of yet another young woman

has been found on

the side of I-25.

She's not been-

[switch clicking]

[crickets chirping]

[Mark] Her voice is

just a bit grating.

[sighs] Well, thanks for-

-Hitting you with my car?

[both laughing]

[Mark] Yeah.

Any time.

Maybe not

any time. [chuckles]

[lips smack]

I hope that we

can do this again

under less dramatic

circumstances.

[paper rustling]

So what's your

number, Brain Damage?

It's...

[pen scratching]

[paper ripping]

I'll call you, okay?

[car door clicks]

[vehicles whooshing]

[car door thuds]

[Mark sighs]

[phone ringing]

What's up little bro?

Mav, [chuckles] you won't

believe what just happened.

Oh, yeah?

I met this girl last night

at Save-More and she's amazing.

Oh, really? What

happened to Sarah?

I know Sarah's friends

with Jessica and all,

but I'm sorry, she's

kinda boring.

Girls don't need to be

interesting for you to f*ck.

[Mark chuckles softly]

I know, but she's.

This girl's just,

she's different.

Yeah, the '80s called,

they want their lines back.

[chuckles] Come on, man.

I'm just trying to help

you out like I always do.

[Maverick] You gotta stop being

so g*dd*mn sensitive.

Girls... girls like sensitive.

Yeah, says the cuck

to the married man.

Hey, can we circle back, buddy?

[footsteps tapping]

Kind of busy.

[chair creaks]

[Mark] It saddens and

shocks me to hear

that you were feeling unwell

after a Yellow

Mitten meal, Ma'am.

[Customer] Well,

the parsley was wilted

and there wasn't

enough sour cream.

Also, how could

you possibly think

that red pepper flakes are

necessary in a meal like this?

[Mark] Well, ma'am, the

instructions for the enchiladas

do specify that the red

pepper flakes are optional.

[Customer] I didn't ask

you if they were optional.

I'm telling you, they

were unnecessary.

[Mark sighs]

I'm sorry-

-[Customer] Just refund

me on the whole box .

[Mark sighs]

Ma'am, for the price of

the red pepper f-flakes,

the best I can offer you

is one free meal credit.

[Customer] One meal?

If you don't refund me,

I'm canceling my account

and telling every

single person I know

that Yellow Mitten is

a disgusting company

with disgusting food

[stomach growling]

and that you're all

disgusting crooks.

[sighs] Ma'am,

-I...

-[Customer] You what?

[stomach growling]

-I...

I'm sorry.

[Mark vomiting]

[Customer] Oh, my God,

you're vomiting, aren't you?

See, Yellow Mitten food

isn't just tasteless,

it makes people sick.

[Ash] Mm!

[food being chewed]

[mysterious music]

Unplug, big boy.

Why watch when you can

have the real thing?

[bell clangs]

[mysterious music continues]

[footsteps tapping]

[jewels clink]

Is this the only offering you

brought your master today?

[mysterious music continues]

[jewels clattering]

[ominous music]

I would give any part

of myself for you, master!

[Mark screaming]

[Mark laughing]

[Mark startles]

[Ash] Oh, my God, these

meatballs are so juicy!

[Mark groans]

[laptop thuds]

[Mark sighs]

[call beeping]

[Dr. Klein] Hi, Mark!

Hi, Dr. Klein.

So, what's been going

on in your life this week?

I got hit by a car

but it was by this girl,

and we hung out.

Um.

She gave me this after.

Gel pen is a nice touch.

What do you think it means?

What do you want it to mean?

[Mark] I don't know,

I guess,

[Mark vomiting]

I really like her.

[toothbrush scraping]

[Dr. Klein] Are you

gonna contact her?

[Mark] No, I

don't know, I just.

I want her to call me first.

[Dr. Klein] So you

could assume, perhaps,

that since she gave

you her number,

maybe she wants

you to contact her.

[Mark] Maybe she's

just being nice.

[Dr. Klein] Let me

ask you something, Mark.

When do you feel it's the

right time to get attached?

[laptop thuds]

[Mark] I don't really

like getting attached at all

to be completely

honest with you.

[Dr. Klein] And why is that?

Mark?

[phone thuds]

[Mark] It's easier that way.

[bed creaks]

[TV clicks]

[Man On TV] The operating

room is no place to experiment.

[doorbell dings]

[Maverick] What's

the password?

Funny password.

[alarm buzzes]

Thanks, Mav.

Cheers.

[glasses clink]

Cheers.

[Mark coughs]

I know you probably got

a million things to do.

Ah, well, you know,

things with the Swedes

have cooled down

since the last deal we made, so.

So.

70-hour weeks

versus 60-hour weeks.

Mr. Big Shot working

himself to the bone.

Work talk is so boring.

It's not every day that my

little bro falls in love.

I'm not in love, I just...

I need some advice.

Well, usually

you've sabotaged it

or run away at this

point, so which is it?

No running away,

just ghosting.

From you or her?

Her.

[scoffs] Commonplace.

Yeah.

So what's so special

about this one, huh?

She's unique.

We're all unique.

Yeah, but she's,

she's different.

She's, she's kind of off in

a captivating, quirky way.

Code for crazy.

[Mark chuckles]

What does she do anyways?

She's a mukbanger.

A what banger?

A mukbanger.

She eats food on camera,

a lot of it.

It's, it's really lucrative.

What even is a mukbang?

It's a South Korean thing,

you wouldn't understand.

Uh, only one of us

has been to South Korea

and it's not you.

That only makes

it more embarrassing

that you don't know

what a mukbanger is.

I'm more into real

banging versus muck banging.

Christ. [chuckles]

[Jessica hums]

Oh, hello, Mark.

[door thuds]

I didn't realize

you had company.

Not company, honey, family.

I see that now.

Why don't you run along to

the jacuzzi without me, dear?

I'm having bro time.

[door clatters]

What's up with her?

I kind of forgot that

this is our date night.

Oh, I can go if

you want, dude.

N-no, no, stay, please, this

is so much more entertaining.

I don't wanna get in the

way of your love life or...

[Maverick scoffs]

Love!

You think that's what this is?

I guess.

If it weren't for her kids,

do you think I'd still be here?

Honestly?

Seriously.

I know you're in

a tricky situation

with the kids and everything.

Can we talk about this

another time, please?

Yeah, whatever man, yeah.

[hand tapping]

So, I wanna hear more about

this manic pixie dream girl.

-Her name is Ash.

-Smash, right?

She ghosted you?

Sort of.

[Maverick sips]

For how long?

Like a week.

Not tragic... yet.

When is it considered tragic?

I give it maybe two weeks.

She's busy banging.

Mukbanging.

[Maverick] I know what you need.

[tray clatters]

[Maverick sniffing]

Huh?

[chuckles] I'm okay.

[Maverick sniffing]

Oh. [exhales hardly]

You need a lay and I'm not

talking about the chip, buddy!

You are disgusting!

I'm right, you

barely know this girl.

Not yet.

Uh, [snaps] call

that, that basic girl,

that dull, pale, giggly one.

She's into you.

-You mean your secretary?

-Yeah, yeah.

Ja-Janine.

Isn't her name Jenny?

Whatever.

This is not a good idea.

This was a great idea!

I know, right? [chuckles]

[Jenny chuckles]

-[Mark chuckles]

-[Jenny sips]

[chip crackles]

So one time, I was in

an improv show and,

[chip crackles]

there was this

crazy chase scene.

So,

we lived in Ridgewood

for about five years.

And we never saw our neighbors.

[chip crackles]

And then.

[Jenny speaking indistinctly]

And we just said,

somebody's really

got to clean that up!

[Jenny chuckles]

I'll be right back.

I gotta pee.

[crowd chattering]

[phone chimes]

[pensive music]

[footsteps tapping]

I got another round.

Oh, wow.

You okay?

Actually, no.

I'm really sorry, I,

I think I have to run.

You, you are really

sweet and pretty

and I would be lucky to

be on this date with you.

It's just,

I sort of have a

girlfriend. [chuckles]

Sort of?

I mean, no, but I want to.

It's complicated, um,

but it wouldn't be

right for me to sit here

and pretend like I'm not

distracted when I am.

I hope this wasn't

weird of me to say.

It was weird,

but thanks for not

wasting my time, I guess?

Thank you for being

so understanding,

and, um, here.

Oh!

Last round is on me!

[crowd chattering]

[crickets chirping]

[door creaking]

Hello?

[ominous music]

[footsteps tapping]

Hello?

[crickets chirping]

[switch clicks]

Ash?

[blanket rustles]

Hey, Mark.

[Mark] Jesus!

It's me.

God.

[Mark chuckles]

[Mark] God, is

that really you?

[switch clicks]

Tell me all your sins.

I pick my nose.

Yeah?

You ever eat it?

No, I mean, yeah, when

I was a kid. [chuckles]

Same.

What are you doing?

[door creaks and shuts]

Thinking.

About?

You.

And some other stuff, too.

Really?

Well, yeah.

I hit you with my car!

I was wondering if

you were like, okay.

I'm fine.

I was at Save-More,

and I was hoping I would

run into you again.

[chuckles] Okay, well, not

literally, but, you know.

[Mark chuckles]

You wanna come in here?

Yeah.

[both chuckle]

Tag, you're it.

[Ash chuckles]

[Mark chuckles]

-[Mark groans]

-[body thuds]

[Ash chuckles]

-Are you okay?

-Yeah, I'm okay.

-Are you okay?

-I'm sorry.

Yeah, I'm fine I think.

[Ash chuckles]

[switch clicks]

Whoa.

You know,

[switch clicks]

clumsiness can be cured.

[switch clicks]

Oh, yeah?

-[Mark chuckles]

-Yeah.

You just have to, like,

actively fight against it.

Like, look in the mirror,

and tell yourself,

"I'm not clumsy, I'm not

clumsy, I'm not clumsy."

And eventually you

won't be clumsy.

I used to drop

things constantly.

I was always tripping,

falling over.

Turns out,

I just wasn't really paying

attention most of the time.

So, let me get this straight.

I'm clumsy because you

hit me with your car?

No, you're clumsy because

you can barely get inside

a blanket fort

without almost dying.

Uh.

[both chuckle]

I haven't been in a blanket

fort since I was, like, six.

[Mark chuckles]

Yeah, well, if you could

just try your best not to die

in front of me, if

you can handle that.

-[Ash chuckles]

-[Mark] I'll try.

Thanks.

[Mark sighs]

So, you, you come

in here a lot or?

Yeah, I do.

I always wanted to do

this when I was a kid.

But I couldn't, so.

Now, whenever it feels

like the internet

is taking over my brain,

I build this.

Makes me feel like

a real person again.

[Mark chuckles]

Tell me something

that makes you happy.

Uh.

Um.

Okay.

Uh.

I write movie reviews.

Really?

What kind of movies?

Uh, mostly horror,

like sci-fi, action type stuff.

No way, I love horror!

You do?

Yeah, especially like

B-horror, you know.

Give me all the blood and

guts and sex. [chuckles]

Well, they're about a

lot more than that, though.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, they're,

they're like, about life

and like the human spirit

making something out of nothing.

Hmm.

Never really thought

about it like that before.

Well, maybe we could

watch a movie sometime.

Or like, I'll send you

a review, or whatever.

Yeah, I'd like that.

Cool, cool.

So.

Where are you from?

Um.

Why don't you go first?

Okay, um.

I grew up in Florida,

but I moved here when I was

10 with my brother Maverick,

and we lived in a foster home

after our parents passed away.

Oh, you don't have to

like, talk about that.

It's fine.

It was a car accident.

Same one that gave

me this plate.

But, um.

Yeah, we got messed up.

Maverick, too.

Seems like you two

are really close.

Yeah, we are, um.

He's kind of a jerk,

but he's harmless.

So, yeah,

to answer your original

question, I'm from Florida,

the armpit of America.

And now, it's your turn.

I go, you go.

-[Mark chuckles]

-Um.

Okay.

I'm from Louisiana.

Oh, so we're both

from the South.

Yeah, something like that.

We, we don't

have to like talk,

like talk about it.

No, it's, um,

just today is like a rotten day.

Why?

Today is the anniversary

of my sister's death.

Ash, I'm so sorry.

No, let's like not do that.

Um.

It's fine.

Really, it's fine.

I'm just...

I'm really happy I don't have to

spend today alone, you know?

Can I put my arm around you?

Yeah.

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

[Ash chuckles]

[Mark sighs]

Wow,

who knew we were

both so depressing?

I knew I was but

you are... [chuckles]

[lips smack]

[pensive music]

[lips smacking]

[pensive music continues]

-[Mark groans]

-[Ash exhales]

I'm sorry.

-No, it's-

-I'm sorry.

-It's okay.

-I just want,

I just wanna take things slow.

It's okay.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

One, two.

[upbeat music]

One, two.

[hands tapping]

Are we supposed

to be counting?

When I was a kid,

I was convinced that.

What's that?

She's just on fire

Don't worry I can save it

Oh, no, I'm keeping

you up late again.

I don't mind.

I do have to go to work, though.

Right. Yeah, work.

Well, maybe we can

do like a

dinner date, movie date thing.

Name the time and place,

and I will be there.

[upbeat music]

[phone chimes]

It's coming back

-[footsteps tapping]

-[messages popping]

[upbeat music continues]

sh*t!

[notebook rustles]

[outgoing call tone]

[Maverick] Make it quick,

I'm about to get a blowie.

Eww, did you just say blowie?

[Maverick] Chop,

chop, man, what's up?

Where's a cool place to

take someone on a date?

I've never been here before,

but I've been trying

to eat more vegan food.

Are you okay?

Do you wanna go somewhere else?

Um. No, I'm, I'm fine, I've just

been on some weird dates here.

Can we like, go inside?

I'm starving.

-[customers chattering]

-[dishes clinking]

Hey.

Hi.

Are you okay?

Did something

happen to your hand?

I'm fine.

That means you're not, though.

I'm fine.

I'm just, like, hungry.

Where's the menu?

Oh, you just have,

you have to scan it.

Yeah, I'm not an idiot.

[customers chattering]

What's your problem?

Nothing, I, I

am just wondering.

Are you always like

this at restaurants?

Like what?

Like all tense

and angry and scary.

And this place, it's just like.

-[table thuds]

-[plate clinks]

[sighs] Whatever, it's fine.

If you wanna leave, we

should, we should leave.

No, we should stay.

I just am like... really hungry

and when I get hungry,

I get "hangry."

And I know that's

a dumb phrase, but it's real,

at least for me.

Will you just do me a favor

and breathe?

[both breathing heavily]

-[door clicks]

-[both chuckle]

What?

You need to go home.

What?

Please go now.

Why?

Just go!

Did I, did I say something or?

No, no, you just...

You can't be seen with me here.

Just.

Can you leave now?

Please?

[ominous music]

[footsteps tapping]

[customers chattering]

[door clicks and creaks]

[downbeat rock music]

[car door thuds]

[Mark gurgling]

[Mark coughs]

It's okay, it's okay!

[rain pattering]

She's too good for you.

[Ash chuckling]

Don't you just love the rain?

[chuckles] I love what the

rain's doing to your clothes.

[both chuckle]

[lips smacking]

[Ash groaning]

Stop!

What?

Come on, babe, I thought

you liked it rough?

Well, I do, but not here.

Hey, you don't get to tell me

where I get to f*ck you!

-[hand slaps]

-[ominous music]

[Ash groans]

-[kick thuds]

-[Ash groans]

-[Stefano grunting]

-[Ash groaning]

-[Stefano panting]

-[Ash groaning]

Oh, your skin is so smooth.

-And it's so tight too!

-[Ash groaning]

[ominous music intensifies]

You think you like it rough?

You have no idea

what it's rough is.

[bone cracking]

[Stefano groaning]

-[blood splattering]

-[Ash chuckling]

[Stefano groaning]

Oh, God!

You crazy c**t!

c**t! [laughs]

How original.

-[Ash spits]

-[Stefano groans]

Remember when you said

you like to deep throat?

I like to deep throat too.

-[Ash grunts]

-[flesh squelches]

[Ash sighs]

-[ominous music]

-[flesh squelching]

Ash?

[Ash growls]

[Ash panting]

[Ash spits]

Mark.

What are you doing here?

I told you to go home.

I was,

I was drinking and then I heard,

I saw what you did to that man.

f*ck.

You're eating him.

Yeah, I didn't really want

you to see me like this.

You gonna help me move the body?

What?

You gonna help me move this?

Uh.

I guess so.

Great.

Thanks.

[rain pattering]

Relax.

It's just a body.

[rain pattering]

[car engine revving]

Holy sh*t, I think we're good.

I don't see anyone on our tail.

God, I just feel so alive!

-[rock music]

-[Ash panting]

What?

What did you do that for?

Are you serious?

Well, if you're

not gonna talk to me,

we might as well

listen to something.

[Ash sighs]

We're just, you're

just gonna pretend like,

like that was okay?

What does "okay" even mean?

It's the circle of life,

people live and people die.

It's normal.

Normal for who?

Normal for me, and

now normal for you.

You just help me

move a dead body.

You're in this now.

No, no, I'm no, I'm not in.

I'm not in it-

-No?

You wanted to hang out with me?

Get to know me?

Well, this is me, Mark.

Yeah, I want, I, I

wanted to get to know you.

Yeah, not, not hurt anybody,

let alone k*ll anybody!

Mark, he wasn't just anybody.

How many people

have you done this to?

[rain pattering]

[ominous music]

Come on, like

that really matters.

-[lips smack]

-[Mark sighs]

Please, please, please, I,

I just, uh. [sighs]

Please, I think

after what happened,

I think I deserve to know

what, what is going on, please.

[Ash sighs]

Yeah, okay.

Okay.

I'll tell you when we

get back to my place.

[rain pattering]

[light clicks]

[plastic rustles]

Big boy's gotta go on there.

Earth to Mark.

You okay?

What were in those

tacos the other night?

[Ash chuckles]

Let's talk and work, yeah?

[footsteps tapping]

[ominous music]

Please. I need to know.

Isn't it obvious?

Did you feed me this?

So what if I did?

So what.

[knife clicks]

I bet you don't even know

what hot dogs are made out of.

[knife clicks]

Hot dogs are made out of pork,

and, and beef

trimming, not, not human.

Pork and beef.

Okay, first of all, I

thought you were a foodie.

You should really do your

research on hot dogs.

Second, just relax, okay?

I can explain.

I don't k*ll just anyone.

What does that even mean?

Who do you k*ll?

I only k*ll the people that

society could do without.

The Ted Bundy,

John Wayne Gacy,

Rodney Alcala,

Earl Bradley,

Jeffrey Epstein types.

Except the not so famous guys.

The ones that get away

with doing horrible things

to innocent people scot-free.

Isn't that what

the police are for?

Don't be silly.

[knife clicks]

[ominous music]

[flesh squelching]

Does this have anything

to do with A. Rouge?

What did you say?

A. Rouge?

[knife sheaths]

Don't ever say

that name again.

Sorry, uh... I just, I saw the

picture in your room

with the name on it and I just,

I should have,

I should, I should have

asked you, I don't know.

I read about her.

Alexandra Rouge.

[knife slices]

So what did you find

while you were looking up

my personal information?

Just articles

about her missing,

and her body.

She was in really rough

shape when they found her.

Dead is pretty rough, yeah.

How did you know her?

She was my sister.

You know,

the one that died.

I told you about

her the other night.

-[ominous music]

-[flesh squelches]

I'm sorry, Ash.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

everyone is so sorry.

But terrible things still

happen every day, don't they?

I guess so.

And nobody really does

anything to help, do they?

No, they just post about

the crimes on social media,

prayers for their

family, yada, yada, yada

but what does that actually do?

Nothing.

[knife clatters]

[flesh squelches]

[ominous music]

[Ash exhales slowly]

That's my favorite cut.

I don't understand how

you can stomach people.

It's kind of

horrible at first.

But then you can't stop

thinking about it.

Eventually, it's the only thing

that'll make you

feel truly full.

[ominous music continues]

[plastic cover rustling]

Am I next on the menu?

No.

No, no, no, no,

no, silly, God, no!

You're not my taste, remember?

I only k*ll the bad guys,

rapists and stuff.

You're not a bad guy.

Are you?

[ominous music]

I don't know.

I don't, I don't think so.

-[flesh squelching]

-[ominous music]

[tray clatters]

[refrigerator door thuds]

What?

I'm sorry.

This is just a lot, and,

you're really pretty, and,

a lot prettier than me, and...

Mark.

[lips smacking]

Sorry, I just,

I wanna take things slow.

You're almost too nice.

Well, I don't know about you.

I could use a good shower.

[plastic curtain rustles]

[footsteps tapping]

[water splashing]

Come talk to me.

[Mark groans softly]

Look, I know this

seems like a lot,

but trust me, that man did

not deserve your sympathy.

Maybe he doesn't

deserve my sympathy,

but how, how do you actually

know that he's a bad dude?

There are lots of

forums out there.

I do my research.

[Mark] Forums for what?

Everything.

Abusers, serial K*llers,

rapists, pedophiles.

[water splashing]

So, you, you actually

have done this a lot? Like...

For real, this is like,

not just like a one time

freak of nature thing?

This is actually your life?

I guess so.

I...

I think I need some

time to process this.

[water splashing]

I'm gonna go home.

[mirror squeaking]

I get it.

Just don't be a ghost.

You're in this now.

First bite!

[food crackling]

Mm!

-[refrigerator door clatters]

-[bottles clinking]

[Mark coughs and spits]

[suspenseful music]

[bottles clinking]

[upbeat music]

Three, two, one, recording!

Hey, all you bangers!

Welcome back to my channel.

I want you, Ash.

[upbeat music continues]

Oh, Mark.

[lips smacking]

-[Mark screeching]

-[flesh squelching]

[Ash moans]

[flesh squelching]

Oh.

Oh, it feels so good!

Mark, yes!

Oh, Mark, yes!

[Ash moaning]

It feels so good!

-[Mark growls]

-[Ash moans]

[upbeat music continues]

You're all I want,

all I want is you!

[Mark screeching]

[Mark coughs]

[Mark chuckling]

[Mark panting]

[Mark chuckles]

You're losing it, buddy.

[Mark chuckles]

[Mark groans softly]

[body thuds]

[upbeat music continues]

[Mark groans and coughs]

[phone vibrating]

Hello?

[Mark groaning]

Something's happening to me.

My body, my body feels like

it's eating itself. [groans]

Sounds like the

hunger is starting.

[Mark] [groans] What

does it mean?

[Ash] Come over tonight.

[groans] Okay. [sobs]

Okay. [groans]

And bring an extra

set of clothes.

We're gonna have

a slumber party.

[phone clatters]

[food crackling]

Mm!

[knuckles rapping]

[Mark panting]

[door creaks open]

Whoo!

You got it bad.

[door creaks]

[ominous music]

[gear squeaking]

[teeth chomping]

[Mark groans]

The first week after

it's bearable but

any longer without it and

then you start to feel it.

[ominous music]

[Mark startles]

Did you know that

when I'm near you

my entire body gets tingly,

hot,

and cold.

[Mark breathing heavily]

[lips smacking]

[both moaning]

-[lips smacking]

-[both moaning]

[Mark groans]

[Mark sighs]

What?

Why'd you stop?

This just doesn't

make any sense.

[Mark breathing heavily]

I'm, I'm eating people.

People with, with jobs

and, and, and hobbies,

and, and friends and family.

[ominous music]

And I like it.

I really like it.

That's f*cked.

You ate that

creep from our date.

He doesn't exactly

count as people.

He r*ped and k*lled,

like, three girls Mark.

Three young girls.

Get a grip.

Get a grip? [chuckles]

[groans] How are

you not in jail?

Give a girl some credit.

You want some more?

[ominous music]

[Mark groans]

[Mark sighing]

How you holding up?

Still a little weird.

But better.

How are you?

Honestly?

Honestly.

I'm upset you looked up

information about Allie

without asking me first.

Allie?

Alexandra Rouge.

She was Allie to me.

I was just, I wanted

to know more about you.

I would have told

you about Allie

if you had just asked me.

Promise me,

you won't go digging into

my life online anymore.

I promise.

[lips smacking]

Will you tell me about her now?

Okay.

[gentle music]

So,

we never really had parents.

At least not from

what I can remember.

The memories, they

tend to come and go.

Somehow, we ended up in

this big park in Louisiana.

[gentle music continues]

[gentle music continues]

[gentle music turns darker]

[pensive music]

[suspenseful music]

[foreboding music]

[suspenseful music]

[suspenseful music continues]

Then I fed on his

meat for a month.

After that, I felt,

I don't know,

happy.

It was like all the evil

in his soul had fused

with my flesh and my bones

and gave me strength.

Like a new life.

Purpose.

Ash, I'm sorry.

There's no reason to be sorry.

She's gone and nothing and no

one is gonna bring her back.

[Mark sniffs]

Ash.

I'm really glad you

opened up to me.

I know this is

all super messy.

I really like spending

time with you.

I'm so...

Never mind.

You're so what?

I'm just so

grateful that we met.

[lips smacking]

You really like

spending time with me?

Yeah, I do.

[lips smack]

[Ash sighs]

[phone vibrating]

[birds chirping]

[phone thuds]

[bed creaking]

[Mark breathes deeply]

[Mark breathing heavily]

[paper towel rustling]

[ominous music]

[flesh squelching]

[Mark moans]

[flesh squelching]

-[Mark moaning]

-[flesh squelching]

[ominous music continues]

[phone vibrating]

[teeth chomping]

sh*t.

[phone vibrating]

[water splashing]

Oh, f*ck!

[phone vibrating]

[phone chimes]

Hi, Dr. Klein!

Hi, Mark.

Sorry, I, I completely

spaced on our appointment.

It's okay.

Why are you wet?

I was working out,

and I took a shower and,

just health and fitness.

-I see .

-[Mark chuckles]

How you been?

You missed a session last week.

Um, I was busy with work.

Are you in a

safe space to talk?

Yeah, um...

Actually, I'm at,

I'm at Ash's place.

So I can assume

she called you?

You were right, I, uh,

think she likes me.

How does she make you feel?

Uh.

Excited.

Happy.

Scared.

Can I ask why are

you feeling scared?

Um.

Yeah, ask yourself,

is there really

anything to be afraid of

in this relationship?

Or is it the idea

of the relationship

[Dr. Klein] that's causing you

to feel anxious and afraid?

I guess, I just.

I don't know why she likes me

and why she's let

me into her life.

I just feel like I'm in a dream.

And, and eventually,

dream Ash is gonna

realize how pathetic I am.

[Dr. Klein chuckles softly]

I hear how afraid

you are to be alone,

and I want you

to know that's very,

that's very normal.

[ominous music]

[Dr. Klein speaks in slowmo]

Mark, are you listening?

Uh, yeah, um.

I, uh, actually, um, there's a,

I have a phone

call from my work.

I have to, um, I have to go.

I'll talk to you next week, bye!

[door creaking]

[door clatters]

[footsteps tapping]

Hey there, sleepyhead.

Hey!

[Ash moans]

Thanks for letting me

stay over last night.

Of course.

Thanks for letting me

unload all that onto you.

Why don't you unload those

groceries on me, m'lady!

Did you just call me, m'lady.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

That was.

[both chuckle]

My bad.

[plastic rustles]

[refrigerator door thuds]

I'm craving something sweet!

[customers chattering]

[upbeat music]

[glass clinks]

So.

So?

You free to help me tonight?

I, I'm sorry, I can't, um.

What's up with you

apologizing so much?

What?

Why are you apologizing?

If you can, you can.

If you can't, you can't.

There's no reason to be sorry.

[glasses clinking]

Well-

--Or you just, you

say sorry a lot.

I'm, I'm supposed to see

Mav tonight for dinner, but

I can reschedule for tomorrow.

Attaboy.

The guy we're seeing tonight,

I've been trying to meet up

with him for a long time.

Real scumfuck.

Got away with molesting

five kids in high school

because he was a minor.

Continues to r*pe and

as*ault women at bars, shows,

you name it.

[pensive music]

[birds chirping]

[footsteps tapping]

[dog tag clinking]

[dog barks]

[dog tag clinking]

[sighs] So.

Game plan.

What do you need me to do?

You remember the signal?

You're gonna

laugh a little loud.

I will cackle.

I'll overreact to a

joke with a cackle

or cackle out of nowhere.

Copy on the cackle.

Show up at the Scorpion Cafe

no later than 1 am

wearing all black.

Make sure no one sees you.

Wait 'til you see us leave.

All right.

I am gonna go get changed,

but see you later, Brain Damage.

[lips smack]

[birds chirping]

[baseball bat thuds]

All right, that's what

I'm talking about, buddy!

Yeah, that's how you

win championships!

[phone ringing]

[Maverick chuckles]

And suddenly, the ghost appears.

[Mark sighs]

Dude.

Are you okay?

You sound sick or something.

I'm, uh, I'm just in

really deep with Ash.

Smash has you lovesick, huh?

I'm not in love

with her, I'm just-

Just what? [sighs]

Being an as*h*le and

ignoring my calls?

I'm, I'm, I'm

sorry, I, I just.

I'm spending a lot of

time with her, and,

she's been showing me a

lot of new things and like,

new parts of myself.

So, is she like a goth chick

who thinks she's a vampire

and has like a wall of sex toys

and like a dungeon or something?

Yeah.

Uh, you could call

her ex, experimental.

I'm just a little overwhelmed.

Well, don't hold

back on telling me

about all her

kinky stuff tonight

when you come over

for family dinner.

That's actually

why I called.

I mean, don't talk

about Smash's sex dungeons

in front of the kids,

wait till after we're done

eating, for God's sakes.

I'm sorry, I

can't hang tonight.

I've, I've got to help Ash

with one of her mukbangs.

R.I.P.

All right.

Since I'm a good brother and

I actually care about you,

I won't hold it

against for bailing.

Thanks, man.

No prob, Marky Mark,

it's what I'm here for.

Catch you later.

-[baseball thuds]

-[crowd cheers and claps]

That's my boy!

All right, here we go!

[birds chirping]

[Mark sighs softly]

[Steve chuckling]

-[Steve gasps]

-[Ash chuckles]

Uh.

How old are you, anyway?

[sighs] I'm old enough.

Oh, come on, I promise

I'm not gonna tell no one.

You're not really 20, are you?

Maybe I'm not.

[both chuckling]

You're a very, very

bad girl, aren't you?

[chuckles] No,

silly, I'm a good girl.

-No, you're not!

-[Ash groans]

You're bad.

[groans] Stop

it, what you doing?

Come on.

Dressed like that, you're

basically asking for it.

Now, let Papa Steve show

you what a real man is like.

[Ash groaning]

[Ash grunts]

[body thuds]

-[Steve grunts]

-[Ash groans]

[body thuds]

[gasps] Stop, stop!

Oh, yeah cry all you want.

This isn't gonna end

well for you little girl.

More like this isn't gonna

end well for you, scum f*ck.

-[Ash cackling]

-[upbeat music]

[Ash grunts]

[footsteps running]

[Mark grunts]

-[body thuds]

-[Mark groans]

[upbeat music continues]

There's a look that

you get sometimes

Like a spider

waiting for a fly

Oh, I can see it

burning in your eyes

And I know something

is about to die

I've been thinking

about the day I met you

And the way you

crashed into my life

Nothing in this

world is ever so easy

Makes me think that's

something isn't right

So tell me, tell me, baby

Tell me, tell me, baby

Tell me, tell me, baby

How you in a sad flood

Tell me, tell me, baby

Tell me, tell me, baby

Tell me, tell me, baby

How you wanna sad song

Something's great about

you disposition

Like a heart of

getting in position

Like you'd trying

to decide to k*ll me

[upbeat music]

Wow, this is so much

more fun with you.

[Mark] Oh, really?

Yeah.

You got something,

something special.

[Mark chuckles]

-[Ash chuckles]

-I don't know about that,

but you make everything fun.

[sighs] Even this.

Mark?

Yes?

I just...

[Ash exhales softly]

You just what?

I, I feel really happy

when I'm around you...

But.

But?

[Ash sighs]

When are we going to...

When are we gonna what?

When are we going to...

You know.

What?

God, don't make me say

it out loud. [chuckles]

When are we gonna what?

When are you gonna f*ck me?

[Mark sighs and chuckles]

I guess we have been

taking it slow in that respect.

I mean, I, I like foreplay,

but eventually, it's

gotta lead to something.

[pensive music]

[lips smacking]

Are you sure about me?

Don't make me

regret being so sure.

[lips smacking]

[pensive music continues]

[Ash moaning]

[lips smacking]

[pensive music continues]

[Ash moaning]

[pensive music continues]

[lips smacking]

[both moaning and panting]

Mark!

Mark.

I.

I love you!

I love you.

[Ash moaning and panting]

[Ash moans]

[pensive music continues]

Hey, what's the

rush, Brain Damage?

You don't have to put your

clothes back on so fast.

I just feel more comfortable

when I'm not letting

it all hang out.

Come on.

You look great.

Seriously, you should

be naked more often.

You're a hunk. [chuckles]

Did you mean what you said?

What did I say?

That you loved me?

[Ash chuckles softly]

Um.

I mean, I didn't...

I didn't mean to say it just

then it sort of came out

when I, you know.

It happens sometimes.

I just get caught up

in the moment and...

Yeah.

This has happened

more than once?

Why?

What, what does that matter?

It doesn't.

I'm sorry I asked.

No, you're not.

I'm not what?

You're not sorry.

You throw that word around so

much, it loses its meaning.

[shirt rustling]

Shouldn't have asked.

You know, I, I didn't mean it.

It just came out.

And who cares how many

times it's happened before?

Like what, what sort of

difference does that make?

Maybe I should go.

Seriously?

Yeah, maybe you should go.

[dramatic music]

You got what you wanted, right?

You know that's

not what I'm about.

[plastic curtain rustles]

[door thudding]

Mark!

Mark, come on, man, open the

door, I know you're in there.

[door thudding]

Open the f*cking door,

man, this ain't funny!

[doorknob rattles]

All right.

You gave me no choice, buddy.

I'm coming in.

[door thudding]

[door creaks]

-[Maverick groans]

-[door thuds]

God, did something die in here?

[ominous music]

Hello?

[footsteps tapping]

Where are you?

Hey!

[ominous music continues]

Mark?

[door creaks]

Holy sh*t.

What happened to you, man?

I'm fine.

I've been calling you nonstop,

and all I get is radio silence.

I even called Yellow Mitten

yesterday looking for you,

and lo and behold, they

fired you two weeks ago.

What the f*ck is going on, dude?

[chair creaks]

I just...

I really messed things up.

Clearly.

I had everything

and I, I blew it.

Well, I mean, I would have

quit Yellow Mitten years ago

if I were you, but-

She told me she loved me,

and I freaked out.

Huh?

With Ash!

She told you she loves you?

Wow, she really is crazy.

She took it back.

But, I think she meant it.

And you know what?

What?

I think I love her too.

And I freaked out,

and I panicked,

and I ran.

Look at me sitting here.

I wanna be with her.

She's really special.

Yeah, yeah, she's special

and it's nice to see

you commit for once.

So, the real question is.

Yes, yes.

We f*cked, okay?

Are you happy?

[Maverick laughs]

You can be such an as*h*le.

Oh, I

enjoy being an as*h*le.

You, on the other hand, clearly

don't enjoy being a p*ssy.

Maybe you should stop

feeling sorry for yourself

and text her back.

You're right.

What am I doing?

I need to see her.

I need to see her now.

Uh.

Uh, yeah, uh, [chuckles]

hey, that's, uh,

that's, that's nice and all,

but maybe you should take

a shower or something

before you go running

off back to Smash.

You smell bad, real bad.

You might be right about that.

I know I'm right.

And, hey, I'm glad that

you're alive and well-ish.

Thanks for being

there for me, Mav.

You're my little brother,

and I do think it's kind of cool

that you found someone to

consistently bing bong.

[Mark chuckles]

I'm gonna pretend you

didn't just say bing bong.

I'm really excited for

you to meet her, dude.

Same, though she might

have second thoughts

about being with you after

she gets a load of me.

I'm just joshing you, bro.

[Mark chuckles]

I got my own date

to tend to tonight.

Jacuzzi with Jessica?

Something like that.

I'm not even gonna

ask. [chuckles]

Probably best you don't.

So, here's what we're gonna do.

You're gonna clean

yourself up, eat something,

and let me how things go.

[floor creaks]

[Maverick chuckles]

[sighs] I'm sorry, um.

[Ash] Why are you here?

I, I know that

was stupid of me.

I understand if you don't

wanna talk to me anymore

after what I did, I

would totally get it.

No, I.

I don't want that.

Why did you leave?

[sighs] I don't know, um.

I've just messed up a lot of

things with people and, and

sabotaged a lot

of relationships by,

by shutting down or

running away and I just-

I don't...

I don't wanna hear about

you and other girls.

I just wanna know

that you're mine.

I...

I just don't wanna mess

things up with you.

You wanna be with me?

Yes.

We'll take care of each other.

Through all of it,

through thick and thin.

I'll always take care of you.

[knife scrapes]

Give me your hand.

-[knife slices]

-[Mark gasps]

-[knife slices]

-[Ash gasps]

You promise?

I promise.

-[lips smacking]

-[both panting]

[Ash exhales]

Can we just relax

tonight and hang out,

watch a movie or something?

I just...

I found this zombie

movie called Zom-bees.

[Ash chuckles]

I just, I just rented it.

No.

No, we, we can't

watch a movie tonight.

We have really important

business to attend to.

I'm really gonna need you

to have my back, okay?

Yeah, whatever you need.

[sofa creaks]

[ominous music]

[upbeat music]

[perfume hissing]

You're ready?

Where do you want me to hide?

Just go in the back.

Wait for the cackle.

I'll be right here.

[lips smack]

[upbeat music continues]

[Ash exhales]

[cabinet door clicks and thuds]

[door knocks]

[upbeat music continues]

[door clicks and creaks]

[ominous music]

Well, hello, gorgeous.

[Ash] Hey, hot stuff.

[footsteps tapping]

[gentle music]

[both chuckling]

You look even better, IRL.

You're not too bad

yourself, big guy.

[Ash chuckles]

[Maverick chuckles]

You know, we do have this

whole place to ourselves.

[Maverick] Oh, lucky me.

[Ash chuckling]

-[lips smacking]

-[Ash moaning]

I don't know what it is.

You're just so familiar to me.

Oh, yeah?

[Ash chuckles]

Oh, yeah.

I feel like.

I don't know, I've seen

you somewhere before?

Might be from your dreams.

[glass shatters]

[ominous music]

[belt clicking]

[zipper rasps]

Or maybe your nightmares.

[clothes rustling]

[ominous music]

[Mark] Maverick?

In my room, in my room

Mark!

What the f*ck are

you doing here?

You shouldn't be here.

I shouldn't be here?

You shouldn't be

here, this is my date!

This, this isn't happening.

-[Ash grunts]

-[Maverick groans]

-[Ash grunts]

-[Maverick groans]

Oh, stop, please,

please, please.

Stop?

He's my, he's-

Did you see what he

was just doing to me?

You're telling me to stop?

He's, he's my brother!

-[Mark sighs]

-What?

[Mark panting]

Look, he's my brother.

Look.

It doesn't f*cking matter

if he's your brother, okay?

He's here, he just

tried to r*pe me.

He knows where I live,

he has to die, Mark.

[stammers] No,

no, no, he's not,

he's not one of the bad guys.

[stammers] We all just,

please, let's just talk to him,

just talk to him, and [stammers]

he won't, he won't tell anybody!

He won't tell anyone

about this, I promise.

Help me get him

in the basement.

[ominous music]

[footsteps tapping]

Is it true?

What the f*ck

is going on, dude?

Tell me,

is it true?

Are you sick?

I can explain, Mark.

Christ, it is true.

I'll tell you all about

what's fact and fiction

as soon as you untie me.

No, no, tell me now.

Have you r*ped anybody?

Depends on how

you define r*pe.

Are you serious?

Have you, have you

k*lled anybody?

[footsteps tapping]

To be fair, I onl-

Answer the question.

[footsteps tapping]

You're gonna choose

this b*tch over me?

Your own flesh and blood!

How dare you call her that!

You should see the filthy

things she posts online.

She's practically

begging men to rail her.

Face it, Mark, you're

with an E-wh*re!

-[hand slaps]

-[Maverick groans]

[Maverick panting]

Mark knows what I do online.

He knows it's all for the cause.

It's all to nail

despicable people like you.

Mark!

Mark, come on, man.

I practically raised you

after Mom and Dad died.

Please, please stop.

I took care of us,

I took care of you!

And I'm still taking

care of you to this day.

You don't wanna k*ll me.

You know it and I know it.

So, so untie me and let's leave.

[Mark] Please, stop!

This girl is a lunatic.

She's lying to you,

she's the k*ller, not me!

Shut up!

I knew she was crazy,

I f*cking knew it!

k*ll him!

From the moment you

told me about her.

Mark.

[eerie music]

[Mark panting]

Mark.

Don't you love me, Mark?

Because

if you loved me

you would k*ll him.

Don't listen to her.

She doesn't love you.

Look at her!

Look at you!

How could someone like her

actually ever be into someone

like you?

[eerie music continues]

No, no, no, no,

Mark, we're family!

We're family!

[Mark sobs]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

[Maverick] No!

[eerie music intensifies]

[tape ripping]

No, what the

f*ck are you doing?

Mark?

He's family!

[kick thuds]

-[Mark groaning]

-[suspenseful music]

God, you moron!

-[body thuds]

-[Mark groans]

[Mark groaning]

-[Maverick groans]

-[body thuds]

[Maverick grunting]

[Maverick screaming]

[Maverick groaning]

You b*tch!

I'm gonna tear your eyes

clean out of their sockets

and f*ck your empty,

useless skull!

[Maverick groaning]

-[flesh squelching]

-[Maverick screaming]

[Ash spits]

[Maverick screaming]

-[suspenseful music]

-[Maverick groaning]

You dumb, disgusting,

worthless, f*ck toy!

You wanted this

close contact, huh?

You thought I would

just be another bimbo?

Another name in the paper?

Another set of holes

for you to ruin?

[Maverick groans]

You remember that 12-year-old

you dumped by the highway

after you used her?

Or that 16-year-old

that you dismembered

and left in a ditch?

How about those corpses

you dug up and defiled?

I am not worthless.

You are worthless.

I can feel the life draining

out of you, [laughs]

and it feels so f*cking good!

[Ash cackling]

[Ash screaming]

[Ash panting]

-[object thuds]

-[body thuds]

[Maverick wheezing]

Run, Mav!

Run!

[Maverick groaning]

-Ash, Ash, Ash, Ash.

-[Ash groans]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

He's my family, he's,

he's, he's my family.

I couldn't do it.

You two are all I have,

he's, he's all I have.

-[hand slaps]

-[Ash grunts]

I can't f*cking believe you.

You're not sorry.

You were never sorry.

If you were, you

would have k*lled him!

-[suspenseful music]

-[Ash sobbing]

You're a liar.

You'll never love me

like I loved you.

I would have done

anything for you.

Anything!

And you let him go, you let

that filthy child f*ck go.

And now I know

that I can never trust

you or anyone ever again.

-[ax thudding]

-[Ash grunting]

You're just like

the rest of them.

-[ax thudding]

-[Ash grunting]

-Deceitful.

-[Mark groans]

Depraved.

Dead.

[Ash crying]

[Mark groans]

I loved you, Ash.

[Ash sobs]

Mark, Mark, Mark!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

Mark, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

[Ash crying]

[lips smacking]

She walks a crooked

little path alone

Alone

She leaves

The part of her

that feels at home

At home

She moves through the crowd

She'd rather escape

She wracks her brain

For the right thing to say

But it doesn't really matter

Nobody listens anyway

[gentle techno music]

She walks a crooked

little path alone

[gentle techno music]

[techno music fades out]
