Scream Season 2 Episode 10
You could tell almost instantly that the episode was not going to end well for someone. The killer was up to his usual games and lead to a heartbreaking end. Most of the episode focused on two different pairings of people mending broken friendships. Emma and Audrey were still at odds after Audrey’s big reveal to her connection with Piper while Maggie and Sherriff Acosta surprised us with their unexpected history. We also dug deeper into Brandon James, leading to a huge reveal that may have just given this season’s killer a name. Audrey and Emma When the two of them receive video from the killer that Noah has been buried alive, they follow his clues in order to find him. As they headed out to find Noah, they took way too many breaks to work on their own friendship. Emma was still unable to understand why Audrey did what she did and Audrey still grappling with feeling devastated that Emma hated her so much for it. Audrey’s confessed that she was in love with Emma and she broke her heart. Before we could really even sink our teeth into that, the confession was quickly put to the side when they realized Noah was buried underneath a dead pig carcass. When they find Noah still alive, the next mission turns into finding Zoe who was also taken by the killer. We should have known it was a foreshadow when Noah was in the coffin, guessing that the killer was recording him only to play it later for his friends after he was dead to torment them. Well he didn’t do that for him…but, he did that for Zoe. Zoe’s underwater coffin was found near the shore and while the video of her screaming to be saved was still playing, it was too late. The killer had already drowned her leaving Noah in shock and Emma and Audrey defeated. There’s no doubt that Noah will start to see himself as cursed having now had two girlfriends who were killed. It’s hard to say what path Noah will take after this. Will he continue his search for the killer, becoming more fueled by vengeance? Or will he back off and lose all hope that they can do anything about him? Sherriff Acosta and Maggie We still never got a clear shot of the character’s face, but it appears that Brandon James may have never really been killed by the police all those years ago. A flashback shows that Acosta and Maggie helped Brandon after he was shot, leading Maggie to the conclusion that maybe he is still alive and is the one tormenting Emma. The last flashback of the night is a scene showing that Brandon used to leave notes for Maggie in a tree. So, Maggie in the present day decides to leave one for him in hopes that he will get it telling him to stay away from Emma. Like he will listen to that. What is this kid’s deal? There was no Noah in the preview, but that won’t stop Emma and Audrey for going after the killer. But, it looks like they do some more digging on Eli and realize he may have been in Lakewood before.
