Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Do I know you?

The HOA doesn't allow
costumes outside of Halloween.

Okay, you keep your distance.

I'll put this on Nextdoor.

I love Nextdoor. It's
my honey pot for Karens.

Stop!

This is unacceptable.

Don't...

Do you know who I am?

You are a pestilence and I'm the cure.

Sic Semper Karenus.

Oh, geez.

Ooh, you okay there, Dave?

Cut.

All right, Dave, you got this.

You're a born killer.

You're the Menacer.

Oh, Eddie.

I can't see anything in his mask.

Look, Dave can't handle this.

I can still play the Menacer.

Just play it cool.

You're not in a rush.

It's just a walk in the park

with your girl practically holding hands

and you land on your
mark and you kill her.

Okay, let's go for another take.

10 minutes.

10 minutes before Piggly
Wiggly closes its doors.

Your pregnant wife is
craving a butter burger

and cheese curds.

And don't forget my sauerkraut.

Okay, mom.

Enough.

Sure you wanna move into this place?

No, I don't, Joe.

But I'm too broke to take
Anna out to a decent dinner.

I'm living in a one-bedroom,

and we got a second kid on the way.

So that's my life.

Thank you, members of the
academy for this honor,

I grew up idolizing the Masters of Horror.

John Carpenter, William
Friedkin, Bob Hawkins.

I see you there, Bob.

They slash their way into the
throne rooms of Hollywood.

And this award puts me in
the same revered light.

It validates my work

and proves that I do have
a voice worth hearing.

The Menacer is death, destroyer of Karens.

You know, when I was
just a young filmmaker,

my mom used to always tell me that-

You better have a backup plan.

Thank you.

Yeah.

Because the Academy doesn't
give out Oscars to nim-wits.

And Spielberg,

put Thelonious back on the table.

Oh, Nancy, you're not
even gonna know we're here.

Oh, Hannah, you're turning
my life into a horror movie.

Mom, don't worry.

All the movie props will go in
the spare bedroom with Billy.

Oh, you mean the body
parts and the monsters

and what's next?

King Kong?

You wouldn't hurt him, right?

Hurt who?

King Kong.

No.

I mean, king Kong is a huge,
like, what is that thing?

- Okay? No, no, mom, mom.
- No, it's okay, it's fine.

It's good.
- King Kong is the Guinea pig.

Eddie and I got it for Billy.

He's been having some trouble in school.

It helps him calm down.

And focus.

Maybe you should get
three more for yourself.

Mother.

Okay.

You know how your Guinea pig is King Kong?

- Mm-hmm.
- Let's pretend

that grandma is Godzilla.

They gotta be a part, okay?

But what monster is Uncle Kevin?

Frankenstein.

You said you were going
to spend six months here.

You never told me you
were bringing in a badger.

Mom, you wanna sell your house?

I'm here to fix it.

You haven't updated this place
since Kevin was in diapers.

Fine.

That can go live in the garage.

Not in the Kevin Dome.

That's my practice space.

Oh God.
And it smells like shit in there.

You have been living here
your entire life rent-free.

It is the rat dome now.

And go help your sister.

Mom!

You know my tryout for the
Ice Gophers is tonight.

I will bleach all your jerseys.

Fine.

But this could be my year.

Yeah.

- You shut up.
- Stop it, you two.

What's up, dude?

What's up?

So I submitted us to a
bunch of elite film festivals

and one of them

even has a development
deal as the grand prize.

How can you do that?
We're still filming.

Submitted the rough cut.

They'll take the final
cut a few weeks later.

This is it, man.

This is everything.

This is LA, Hollywood.

Everything Pewaukee is not.

What's wrong with Pewaukee?

Hey, we won the Twisted Dreams
Film Festival last year.

We could get two, (indistinct).

This won't give me a
real film career, man.

I'm ready for the majors.

There's other ways to pursue your art.

Yeah?

Remember Mike Milewski?

Mike Milewski?

He sells pictures of his feet on OnlyFeet.

I'm not going on OnlyFeet.

It's not gonna happen.

Your feet are disgusting.

Thanks, Kev.

I just gotta get into this festival, man.

Anna's supportive now.

But in a few months, we're
gonna be a family of four.

After that, play time's over for me.

You remember the origin
story of Killing Karens?

Mrs. Pelagatti?

Mrs. Pelagatti.

A lot of people point

to the Bela Lugosi
Dracula as the OG vampire.

You know?

Give me Blacula.

That's why I became a horror fan.

We should make a vampire movie next.

Yeah, let's do it.

I gotta get home.

Okay. Hey, you carried the team today.

Thanks.

You smashed my mailbox!

What?

Don't deny it.

- 911.
- Hello?

I'd like to report an assault.

No, I'm not safe.

He has a weapon.

Describe him.

Well, he's Black.

Fernside and Thompson, yes.
- What are you doing?

I'll stay on the line.

Please hurry!

You shouldn't have done that.

I didn't do anything!

I was just at practice!

They are coming for you!

Go, go, go, go.

She's crazy, she's a lunatic!

No, I'm not!

You're next!

And that's why we gotta make it.

Exactly.

The Menacer is a vigilante.

Who extracts his revenge
on the Mrs. Pelagatti's

of the world.

Angry, entitled white women.

Not exactly.

The Menacer is an equal
opportunity killer.

Anyone can be a Karen.

Now that you mention it.

My uncle Larry was probably a Karen.

It's never been done before.

- My spleen, it's everywhere.
- Oh, blood.

Thanks, bud.

We'll get the heavy stuff.

Pompeii.

There you are.

Billy's been looking all over for you.

So what's the plan?

Well, I've been sending query letters

to every agent in Los Angeles.

Maybe it'll help us
get into that festival.

Spamming works.

Any replies?

- Hey!
- Eddie.

What's up?

I'm Javi, this is Randon.

One of our hottest associate agents.

Hell yeah.

I want something that rocks.

Awesome.

Well, what'd you guys
think of Killing Karens?

I didn't watch it.

Mm, you shot this?

Yeah, yeah.

I submitted to Hollywood
Elite's Film Festival.

Oh, it must be so elite I
never heard of it.

Well, first prize is a development deal.

Oh.

Do you have a deal?

No, I just have a pilot.

Oh boy.

Usually, it's the
other way around, Eddie.

Who do you see playing
that, that Menacer?

Oh, well, my buddy, Dave Casper.

He's playing the Menacer right now.

Who's that?

Your bowling partner?

No.

Killing Karens is based off
of a personal experience,

it's a unique story.

It'd be more personal if
you recast then re-shoot.

And you rework,

you gotta rework it.
- Recast it?

Why do you guys wanna change it?

We've made 7,000 shows, Eddie.

Okay, so you're saying if
I recast and re-shoot it?

Hell yeah.

And get the financing for it.

Financing is huge, Eddie.

Well, how do I get financing?

And get season one picked up.

Oh, Netflix, Apple, Hulu. Even the cock.

- They all work.
- Then you come back to us.

Oh, speaking of Dane Cook's on line two.

Oh God.

That guy needs our help more than ever.

- Okay.
- See you later, Eddie!

- Bye!
- Wait wait wait wait, hold-

What am I supposed to do?
I just wanted some advice.

Producer Joe to the
rescue, just announced Bob

Hawkins is in Milwaukee.

The Horror Whisperer?

Bearer of Terror himself.

He's signing his book down
at Coffee and Coleslaw today.

- When?
- His Instagram

says from 4:00 to 6:00.

Crap, I can't.

Anna has an OGBYN appointment at 4:30.

It's not gonna happen, man.

I mean, you can at least ask her.

As much as I wanna
strangle you right now,

it's Bob Hawkins, you have to go.

But I don't wanna rush the
appointment with Dr. Kendra.

Eddie, never argue with a
pregnant woman who has to pee.

Hawkins will know what to do.

Excuse me. We're trying to park here.

Yeah, I've got this spot.

Is she nuts?

Yeah. She can't-

Hey, you can't do that.

We're going to the doctor.

My husband's coming.

Hey, lady!

Is your husband eight months pregnant?

You're trying to run me over?

- What?
- Oh God.

I'm gonna call the police.

And I'm gonna call Michael Myers.

And I'm gonna golden shower your ass

all the way back to Waukesha!

We're gonna the fish fry this weekend.

Yeah, we wouldn't have been
late if the Menacer was here.

Well, being pregnant can
be challenging at times.

At least you're past the morning sickness.

Oh, remember when I puked
that split pea soup?

- I do.
- Oh, some Exorcist action.

Did your head spin all the way around too?

Oh, you're a horror fan.

Oh, why'd you think
I went to med school?

Oh, you would've loved this.
It was the perfect color.

Just peas everywhere. Projectile vomiting.

Just blah, blah. It was amazing.

It was everywhere.

Gah!

Could we get back to the baby?

Right, the baby.

Are there any supplements
I need to pick up at all?

Yes.

Come on.

Dr. Kendra. Have you
ever considered acting?

You are gonna strangle
me for real this time,

but if we leave for the
bookstore right now,

we can still meet Bob Hawkins.

- It's fine. I'll get an Uber.
- Are you sure?

- Yeah.
- Tried to run me over.

Tried to kill me. It's unbelievable!

I mean, oh my God. That's him!

You got this.

Hey. Hey.

Agh!

You gonna throw?

I'm a better target.

Oh my God. It's him.

Mr. Hawkins.
- I'm gonna need more axes.

There's gonna be a high body count.

- Excuse me, Mr. Hawkins.
- Stuck in this Podunk town

for another week.

So gonna be a double Tanqueray and Tonic.

No no no, sir, I'm not your server.

Then who the hell are you?

Edward Matthews.

Do I know you?

I'm a big fan. I took your masterclass.

Can I pick your brain for a minute?

20 bucks.

20 bucks?

Up front. 10 minutes.

Go.
- My wife's pregnant.

I moved in with my
mother-in-law who hates me.

We have a Guinea pig named King Kong.

- Tick, tick, tick.
- Look.

I submitted to a film festival,

but these agents said that Killing Karens

needs to be reworked.

But they didn't tell me what that means.

That's not their job.

If they say yes and the
project tanks, they get fired.

If they say no and it becomes
the biggest thing since

White Lotus, then they get fired.

Nobody knows anything until
they do. That's the game.

What kind of show is it?

Horror.

Psychological, paranormal, or a slasher?

Slasher. But smart.

It's a dark comedy, but
no summer camp teenagers.

My main character, the
Menacer, is a vigilante

who literally kills Karens.

Do you have a signature kill?

I got an ice pick,

a cinder block smash, and a nail gun.

Those are all very pedestrian.

Well, I think they work.

You need an exploding head.

Scanners.

That was a film that nasty gerbil lizard

that blew out of John
Hurt's stomach in Alien.

It's brilliant.

People are so
desensitized by violence.

You need a signature kill

to leave an indelible mark in their minds.

Yeah. Something no
one's ever seen before.

That's how you win a development deal.

Nobody wins a development deal.

You do at this festival.

You buried the log line.

You don't just need a signature kill.

You check into the Bates
Motel, turn your shower on

and start stabbing.

Nobody gets this chance.

Are you a killer?

Yes, sir.

Show the world that you're a killer.

Careful!

Don't knock into my collectible gnomes.

This is Darcy and Winston
and my favorite Yannis.

They're more valuable than you.

Ah! No, stop, Billy!

Ah!

- Eddie.
- Nice one, bud.

Hey, finish unpacking your room,

you can kill me again later.

- All right.
- All right.

- What is going on?
- Relax, Nancy.

It's just a prop knife

from Crux of Fear.

When are you gonna grow up?

I mean, all I see is Peter Pan.

And after four short films,

I just want to go to Neverland.

You're already there.

There's a line of people from Pewaukee

to Los Angeles trying
to make it in Hollywood.

What makes you think that
you could jump that line?

Didn't you ever have dreams, Nancy?

Yes, I had dreams.

I had dreams that Anna would wind up with

Robert Chapman, the
personal injury attorney.

Mom, stop it.

Well, Eddie could make some
real money at cousin Harold's

car dealership.

Yeah. And I could also
take a bath with a toaster.

- Please.
- Mom, we've been over this.

Eddie works hard.

Okay.

Yippee for us!

That's it.

You can feel it calling for you.

You're aching for it. You touch it.

You can feel the anger transforming you.

You slowly bring it to
your face. You put it on.

Put it on Dave.
- Okay, Eddie.

That's it.

You hear me calling your name.

You turn around.

You're the Menacer now.

Cut! Perfect.

Karen, choose
atonement or choose death.

The Menacer.

I choose vengeance!

Cut. That was the one.

Where did that come from?

Sigourney Weaver. Alien.

That's it, more of that.

You're watching everyone go mad

and only you can meet out their justice.

Now release it!

Joe.
- I'm trying.

Push the button.

Uh...

Cut.

Joe?
- Yeah.

What kind of pump was that?

I don't know, I found it in a box

marked baby things in the garage.

- It's a breast pump.
- But, it saved us money.

It's gonna cost me my balls.

We got the shot.

Okay. Okay, let's do another one.

And when I give you the word,

you start lactating like
there's no tomorrow.

And action!

What's wrong?

What is happening? Are you-

Sorry, mom. Sorry, sorry, sorry.

You promised

that Kong would stay in Skull Island.

Eddie!

Mom, are you okay?

You scare my mom again

and I will slap shot your
balls like a hockey puck.

Once I'm greenlit,
you'll never see me again.

Yeah.

And when the Penguins call me up,

I can skate with Sidney Crosby.

- Who?
- He's a hockey player,

dip-shit!

No, don't look at her.

Look at me. She can't save you.

I'm your world now.

I'm sorry.

Use my balls for a hockey puck. Right?

I'm gonna use your balls for-

Hello?

What?

As we've told you multiple times,

Billy can be very disruptive.

Seems that bad behavior
runs in the family.

We're sorry.

Gentlemen. Sorry won't
butter the biscuit.

There was an incident earlier today.

Some things do not
belong in show and tell.

I've been looking for that.

I can't believe you brought
a severed head to school.

What were you thinking?

I don't know.

You can't chew gum in class.

You can't skip the lunch line.

You definitely can't bring
a severed head to school.

- I just-
- You got Legos,

you got Pompeii,

you even got King Kong.

Now those are the kind of things you

can bring to show and tell.

Not that.

It's just everybody was
talking about what their dad did

and I wanted to show
them how cool you are.

Come here.

Hey dad, check this out.

Very cool buddy.

How can I kill her?

- Excuse me?
- Oh, I've re-shot everything.

But now I need a signature kill.

You know who's killing it?

Robert Chapman.

Personal injury attorney.

Robert Chapman. Robert
Chapman. Robert Chapman.

Eddie.

Can you set the table
with your signature knives

and forks?

The hell is going on with you?

A drill?

Already been done.
Slumber Party Massacre.

No, no, no.

It's a three inch circular drill

with an extended bit as long as your arm.

- Mm.
- Right?

Hmm.

Biddly-boo.

The Karen knows someone's following her.

Biddly-bing!

She gets her phone out ready to record.

Biddly-boo!

What she doesn't know is
that it's the Menacer.

Who's there?

Before she turns around.

Oh God. A giant drill.

It's spilling out her chest.

Oh, it's everywhere!

Oh, my spleen!
- Everywhere!

Flying through the air.

And when the cops show up-

She's got a hole the
size of a fence post.

Do you know what that is, Eddie?

What?

A signature kill.

Well, Mrs. Schwank,
can I interest you in our

Mutton Chop collection?

We have Chester A. Arthur,

John Quincy Adams, and Martin Van Buren.

For only $19.99, they can be all yours.

Hello?

I thought I had a shitty job.

It's not so bad.

The Mutton Chop collection?

Anyway, tell me about Hawkins.

I've got our signature kill.

I've been up all night thinking about it.

How are we gonna meet the deadline?

I got some ideas.

So let's talk budget.

How much for a customized
replica ahead of a Karen?

675 if we go to The Dapper Cadaver.

Okay. What about a full body?

We could cut it in half.

Remember that Goodwill
mannequin from Crux of Fear?

Yeah. No, no, no, you can't go cheap.

You get what you pay for.

This has to be signature kill-worthy.

Okay. Okay.

Fake blood. Pig intestine.

Brain splatter.

Carry the one, looks like-

- Like what?
- $2,247.

I don't have enough blood or plasma.

Or semen.

It pays.

Yeah. Yeah.

You want the Dracula posters?

I mean, I can do 200,

50 works too.

Looks just like my fake blood at home.

Excuse me.

You like vampires?

Got some in my van here.

Joe, buddy.

Can you do me a solid?

Next.

Oh, hi Joe.
- Hi Barb.

I'll be quick this time.

Well, you usually are.

You betcha. Nancy said you
might come by about a job.

Look, cousin Harold, to be honest,

this isn't my first choice,

but I need the money.

If I agree to take a job
in the next few weeks,

is there any way you
could gimme an advance?

- Advance?
- Yeah, you know, just like a-

I don't give advances.

Come here once real quick.

I got a way yous could
make some quick cash.

We need the money to bring me to life.

I can't sell the van.

Don't you want to define
a new genre of horror?

Anna still needs it for work.

And we need it for
glory. Don't be a baby.

Relinquish control.

What happened to you?

I made a deal with the Devil.

What? What did you do?

I don't wanna talk about it, man.

We got the money for kills.

We better make it worth it. Okay?

Right. Okay.

Well, it's gotta be
werewolf mask material.

- What?
- Uncle Larry decided

that he wanted his baby

to be breastfed by my Aunt
Betty wearing a werewolf mask.

- Holy shit.
- Genius. Right?

I guess he figured that he
would always associate the mask

with comfort and that eventually
he would stop being afraid

of like the dark and random things.

- His mom did that?
- Just for a couple years.

They divorced when he was three

Mm. Figures.

- Did you just say divorce?
- Oh, no, no, no, buddy.

What are you doing up?

Well, Pompeii's stomach is grumbling.

Oh, the stomach grumbling again.

Well, maybe some salmon
would do the trick.

Oh yeah, you gotta eat your fish.

Need your omega-3s.

Why are you dressed like Russell Crowe?

I got the lead rule of Julius
Caesar in the school play.

Wow. You know, they named
a salad after that guy.

Returneth now to Rome.

Yeah, but maybe sleep in your PJ's.

I can't. I'm going Method.

I'm about to be
assassinated by the Senate.

Hey babe, a couple things.

I took out the garbage, did the dishes,

and sold the blue bomber,
so I'm just gonna go.

Wait, what?

Fixed Billy's lunch for tomorrow.

BLT. Bologna, lettuce, tomato.

Not the lettuce. 'cause you know

he hates that.
- You sold the Blue Bomber?

I had to.

It's the only way we could
finish Killing Karens.

You didn't think that maybe you should

consult me on that?

I know, I know. I was desperate.

I sold all my Dracula posters

and my Wolfman collection.
- Eddie. Eddie.

I'm a contractor.

How am I gonna use a Camry for work?

I mean, does the trunk even open?

I tried everything. I
literally sold my blood.

I even convinced Joe

to sell his-
- Hon, hon, hon.

Why didn't you just come to me?

We probably could have
borrowed the money from my mom.

No.

Or Robert.

- Robert?
- Mm-hmm.

I am not borrowing money from your ex.

Why would you even bring him up?

Because you sold the van!

How am I gonna get Billy to-

What?

Babe? What is it?

We conceived Billy in the Blue Bomber.

Are you sure?

I mean, I always thought it was-

I don't know what to do.

Get out!

I'll get it back.

It was a good deal!

You're gonna hit the nose!

No, no, no, baby, that's a real machete!

And I'm not moving to LA!

Even if you win!

What are you doing up, Caesar?

I'm worried about mommy and daddy.

Oh, come on.

Oh, you know mommy and
daddies, they argue,

and it's hard to hear, but you know what?

They love you. They love
you, love you, love you.

Yeah, and they'll work
it out. Don't worry.

That's what I told Pompeii.

Yeah. Good old Pompeii, huh?

Is that Roblox?

No. It's a game called Texas Hold 'Em.

That's a funny name.

It's a fun game to play. Bluffing.

Big pots of unsuspecting fish.

You mean like sharks?

Grandma's the shark.

Oh gosh, Nancy, a real machete?

Almost made him a Soprano.

It's been chaos ever since they moved in.

And I'm wondering if I
should kick Eddie out

for his own good.

Well, you know, there's
only so much we can do

for our children.

That's why I had to
put Clem in the asylum.

Mm.

And it's only a few months
before you sell your house

and move in here.

I mean, after three
years on the waiting list,

grandma's ready for some fun.

I'm gonna guide you on setting
up your own GILF account.

It stands for Grandma's I'd like to-

Dorothy!

Is that your boy toy?

Well, that's one of them.

- Dorothy.
- Okay, so,

how's those three sugar daddies?

Lock it up. Bing, bing, bing.

Are you serious?

- What?
- Is that really your guy?

- No.
- He's my two o'clock.

We got the money. We can finish in time.

Yeah, but now I'm in
the doghouse with Anna.

Joe Adcock, Pride of Pewaukee.

Meanwhile, you're getting free beers

every time we come here.

Dude, did you carry
the town on your back

to the Little League World Series?

But that's what I'm talking
about. You're legend here.

I want that.

I wish I had won more
than just a state title.

F Jimmy Jabroni.

We'd be world champs if he didn't drop

that pop up against Taiwan.

You were state champs. You were the MVP.

You'll always have that,
Joe. I'm just a phone pimp.

Killing Karens is gonna change all that.

This is what you've always
wanted. It's in your reach.

You're right. You're right.

By the way, there might be
a problem with our lead actor.

Technically the charge is piracy.

Sweet. Dave, you're like a cyber hacker.

Nah. Porch Pirate.

It pays the bills.

Oh, I got a week left to shoot.

When are you getting outta here?

Not so bad this time.

Four months.
- Oh.

You remember my Smarties.

Of course.

What's with the Smarties?

You'd be surprised

what I could trade these for in Gen Pop.

Wouldn't someone just steal 'em?

Yep.

I got a permanent pocket.

It's my keister.

Oh, hey,

you guys interested in moving any product?

You were dealing drugs too?

No, but I still got a
big stash of cat litter.

Some Tony Robbins books

and some dildos.

- At your house.
- Yeah.

How many dildos?

I'm screwed. Oh, I was so close.

You're overlooking something.

What?

Joe Adcock. Pride of Pewaukee.

I don't need a baseball player.

You need someone who can swing a bat.

I'll be the Menacer.

Remember in fifth grade I
played the second wise man.

The frankincense guy.

Yeah. It's just you're not as big.

And Dave, he's-
- You're not gonna

find someone in time.

Yeah, you're right. I
mean, I guess it could work.

Okay. Yeah, sure.

You're the Menacer.

Alright.

Ah!

Now for the really hard part.

I got you a butter burger from Culver's.

I'm sorry. And I love you.

Eddie.

Sit down.

Aw, this was a cute one.

Oh yeah.

When we were the
Incredibles for Halloween?

Yeah. And Billy was Jack Jack.

Mm-hmm.

I was kind of hot as Mrs. Incredible.

Yeah, you were.

Oh, you like my super suit?

I think you're even hotter now.

Stop.

And of course, Kevin had

to ruin the theme by being a zombie.

- Ooh.
- Always a bad guy.

Hmm.

A bad guy.

Hey Kev.

Staying in shape. Huh?

Whoa.

You lift?

No, no.

I know.

It's nice.

You play?
- Well Hockey? Yeah, sure.

Really? What position?

Uh...

Goalie.

Goalie, huh?

So at first you believe
it's just a slasher,

think Dexter meets American Horror Story.

Look, I know we've had our differences,

but I've been thinking-

but I've been thinking

you'd be great as the Menacer.

Oh, that was close. I felt the wind.

Just be yourself, rabid, unpredictable.

All roided up.

Oh man, that was, yeah. Um...

So you'd be the star.

I'd give you a signed Ice
Gophers's hockey jersey.

Hey.

So we good?

Let's make it an all
star Sidney Crosby jersey.

Deal.

I think

that playing the Menacer
is really gonna help me

get past the Mrs. Pelagatti nightmare.

You got the meatloaf?

Yeah. Yeah.

So I've been doing some thinking too.

And-
- Good. I need your help.

Should I put some lifts in my shoes

and maybe wear some padding
to make myself look bigger?

And I'm probably gonna need some

of your Jordan Peele level directing

to help me out on my menacing.

It's not what I meant. Um...

I don't think you're right for the role.

What?

You got nobody. Who
else are you gonna get?

- Kevin.
- Kevin.

He's psychotic.
- Exactly,

and the right build.

Joe, he's gonna gimme
the best chance to win.

So you're dumping me.

Dumping you?

No, no, no. Are you crazy?

I'm still gonna need you
to get your head bashed in.

So you want the only
Black guy in Pewaukee

to get his head bashed in.

You Remind me of Mrs. Pelagatti.

Joe, you would be good as the Menacer.

But Kevin will be perfect.

And if I'm gonna win,
I'm gonna need perfect.

I'm the one Mrs.
Pelagatti was yelling at.

I'm the victim. I should be the Menacer.

I mean, what, am I just a friend

when it's convenient to you?

Geez, if it wasn't for my Festivus party,

you wouldn't even have hooked up with it.

I owe you the world.

- Yeah, you do.
- But this is it for me.

I'm sorry. Maybe I'm being selfish.

- You are.
- But if I only got

one more shot, then I'm gonna need-

Kevin?

Kevin barely brushes his teeth at night.

Fine.

Don't come crawling back
to me when he flakes.

Doesn't know his lines

or tries to bash you.

Who's the next victim anyway?

Well, that's the other thing.

He's vengeance. He's the Menacer.

He's big. He's mean.

He hates Karen's.

Oh, and remember Kevin, don't
actually hit Joe with the bat.

Wait, wait, wait. You
have to tell him that?

Action.

Perfect. That's it.

That's it.

Get ready to start swinging.

That's it, Kevin. That's it.

That's it. That's it.

That's the rage I need. Keep going.

Cut.

Kevin.

That was great.

I'll be back later.

It's Ice Gophers' thong giveaway today.

I'm done too.

Oh, you're going to the thong giveaway?

No, I'm done playing your victim.

Joe.

Matthew, Joseph, Joshua?

Olivia, Sophia, Nina.

- Billy's a cool name.
- Yep.

Perhaps I could
interest you in our Mount

Rushmore collection, Ms. Glovsky.

We have George, Teddy, Thomas,

and good old Honest Abe all available.

Hello?

I did it.

I did it!

What? You sold Millard Fillmore?

I got into Hollywood
Elites Film Festival.

- You did?
- Yeah.

I guess you turned down Sundance.

Are we going to take that?

Uh.

She means well.

This is our dream!

Well, perhaps I should
clarify. It's not Sundance.

Clarify? This is our golden ticket!

Well, first prize is a development deal

with a major streamer, so.

Second prize is a set of steak knives?

This is my golden ticket.
I've gotta finish this thing.

Oompa Loompa, doopity-do!

Doopity-do!

- God.
- Okay, Kevin.

You protect the weak.
You're their only hope.

So keep your head up and walk towards me.

All right? Great.

Where are you?

Dude. I'm right in front of you.

Just follow my voice.

Okay. Scene 89, take-

- I don't know.
- Okay, whatever.

And action.

Keep going. Keep coming, keep coming.

Yeah.

it's perfect.

Cut.

Kevin, Kevin, stop,
Kevin, cut!

Just keep it elevated, Eddie.

Okay. Alright.

And action.

There we go.

Now creep toward her,
creep toward, creep toward.

Keep going.

You're about to die!

Death is coming!

It's at your door?

There we go. Yes, that's it, yes!

Get to her, lower, lower into the bowl.

That's it, yes, yes, yes!

It's everywhere!

Signature kill!

Sic Semper Karenus.

And cut!

- Ugh.
- Kevin.

A star is born.

Is that meatloaf?

They're coming to get you, Barbara.

Stop it. You're ignorant.

They're coming for you,

Barbara.
- Me too.

Et tu, Brute.

Then Caesar Falls.

Mary, Jennifer, McKenna?

Brian, Dennis, Michael?

Billy, Billy, Billy!

That is a great name.
That's why we gave it to you.

Yeah. Why don't you
keep practicing, bud?

I'm a big brother
now. I just wanna help.

Okay, if you want to help,
go get a pencil and paper

and write down four
names that aren't Billy.

Right?
- Got it.

Get outta here.

When are you gonna make up with Joe?

This is our first real fight, so...

Okay, ready.

Wow, that was quick.

All right. What do we got here?

Night Wig?

- Nightwing.
- Nightwing.

- What's that from? Batman?
- Alright.

Team Titans Go. Nightwing Matthews.

It's actually a really good actor name.

Can't wait 'til Pompeii hears this.

Ooh, we got a problem.

What, you don't like the name?

No.

I think Nightwing is about
to come out of the Bat Cave.

Yeah. Yeah.
- Oh!

- Get the go bag.
- Okay, alright.

- Get the go bag.
- Alright.

Poltergeist, it's happening!

Babe, I've got it, I got it!

Eddie?

First time?

- No.
- I meant about your husband.

Still, no.

Here's Joshua Luke.

Welcome Joshua.

And the mummy.

Joe.

I wanted Nightwing to meet his uncle.

Thanks, Anna.

Congrats.
- Oh, thanks.

What is it?

It's the Leftomatic.

Simply slide it over
the baby's right hand.

And it forces him to use his left

to pick up Cheerios.

At first he can't-
- And he starves to death?

No, no, no.

Well, maybe, but he masters
the use of his left hand.

I'm not following.

If he plays ball, this'll
be a huge advantage.

He can make millions.

Oh yeah. Yeah.

And if Joe's family would've let him use

the Leftomatic, he would've
been in the big leagues.

Okay, Mom, let's show
Joshua his new room.

The Leftomatic. Pick up my nuts.

Yes, Nancy.

Joe. I got it.

Sorry for not letting
you play the Menacer.

I'm sure you would've been great.

Yeah, I would have.

And then to have you wear the blonde wig

and the robe.
- And the slippers.

Yeah, that was,

that crossed a line.

Yeah, it did. And I'm not
gonna lie, it hurt a lot.

Wanna know how you can make it up to me?

Put the Leftomatic on the baby's hand.

It's not gonna happen, Joe.

I need more money.

I don't think I can afford you anymore.

Figure it out.

You can't kill me. I'm the killer.

What do you expect me to do?

Do I have to do everything?

You've got all of Dave's
porch pirate stuff right here.

I guess I could go online
and sell a Johnson Vibronson.

Mm, that's right. I kill the Karens off.

You get them off.

This might actually work.
Maybe even Nancy would buy one.

What am I buying?

Oh, self-help book.

I'd rather buy one of your
mediocre masterpieces.

Money problems again?

Just found out I need another
700 to show at the festival.

I was so close.

I just wanted people to Google me

and see a successful
filmmaker, a horror savant.

You know when people
Google Robert Chapman,

they see a successful
attorney with four kids.

It's just wondering if you could still,

you know, get it up.

- What?
- You heard me?

I mean, it's been seven years since Billy.

One lapse of judgment. One lousy night.

And she ends up with
you instead of Robert.

Robert, Robert, Robert.

If I had a dollar for every
time you threw him in my face,

I wouldn't have a money
for problem, would I?

You constantly preach that I'm a dreamer.

Well, I got news for you, Nancy.

Maybe you should stop fantasizing.

What a thought.

Anna would have a perfect little life

if she married Robert instead of you, ha!

Well, guess what?

She chose me after a
night of carnal pleasure.

Instead of that ambulance
chasing Chardonnay

sipping twat-waffle.

How's that for reality?

Okay, I hear you.

So you wanna be a director
for one last time?

I'll loan you the money.

What? I don't want your money.

- You wanna fail?
- No, I don't.

Then take my money.

I mean shit or get off the pot.

Fine.

Fine.

One condition, when you
lose, you'll go back

to my cousin Harold's.

And you'll take that job.

Or I'll throw your ass right out.

- You're gonna kick us out?
- No, just you.

Oh, by the way, I have
my own Johnson Vibronson.

You are giving him the money.

I'm doing it for Anna. He's gotta lose.

Why?

Because it's the only
way that he's going to get

that stupid dream out of his system.

Well, you know, sometimes
it's nice to have dreams.

Ugh. Dreams.

At least Eddie has a dream.

He's looking forward to
something. What does Kevin have?

Kevin's fine.

He's been chasing the same
thing since he was 13.

Well, maybe Kevin needs
to know there's a world

outside of Pewaukee.

Well, I'm all packed for LA.

Just wish the timing was better.

I really wanted you to come
with me to the film festival.

Oh, I know, honey.
But this is your moment.

I wish the boys and I could come

with you, but-
- We'll be fine.

We couldn't have done
this without you, mom.

I know, but I've been thinking I wanna

protect my investment.

- What are you talking about?
- What do you mean?

Well, I'm not gonna send Peter Pan

to Neverland by himself.

Mom, stop. Joe's going with him.

Kevin's going too.

- Me?
- Kevin?

He's the star, isn't he?

Mom, mom, the Ice Gophers
are playing this weekend.

Right. The Ice Gophers.

Listen, you have enough
thongs, peanut butter breath.

Kevin goes, or I don't give
you the rest of the money.

We're going to California?

Do I need to like have a passport, or?

Hey.

Looks like Kevin's making friends.

Wow. Looks like
anything's possible in LA.

Right?

Oh, we're up.

Kevin.

Wait, wait, wait. One more.

Joe Adcock, price of Milwaukee.

I see you.

I like Hollywood.

Excuse me, sir.

Excuse me. Can I just
see this for one second?

- Oh.
- Yeah.

You are a nominee, so you're gonna have

to fix your badge, okay?

- Oh.
- Thank you so much.

I'm one of the stars.

Are you? Okay, well that's great.

Just so you know,

stars don't usually put their names

on the front of their jersey.

Okay?

My mom got it for me.

Don't care.

Who was that?

I am sure not anyone important.

Hello Festival goers.

I am Karen Brazo Fuerte,
and I am the Founder

and Director of the 15th Annual Hollywood

Elites Film Festival.

Okay, well, FYI, everyone
at the cash bar is open

and you can be sure
that the OJ is excellent

because it was a personally
squeezed by Miguel.

Hola.
- A real live Karen?

My father was a baseball player.

Maybe that's a good thing?

- But he told me-
- No, no, we're screwed.

I could break
into the cryogenics lab

and steal (indistinct) frozen head.

I'm Thelma. We made Home Bodies.

It's basically Barbie meets The Meg.

- Oh, wow.
- And I'm Louise.

This is our third film festival.

But the first with the development deal

is the grand prize.

And the execs who choose the
winner are right over there.

A lot of heroes, Superman.

- Thanks-
- Like Mama says,

that's the tits.

Oh. And who doesn't like those?

Am I right?

Hey, I'm Jackson Black.

I do development deals.

I'm just back from Sundance,

and I'm on my way to South by next.

What are looking for?

Something I can pump
and dump over on Me-cock.

I feast on the weak.

And this is what I call a
target rich environment.

Pew pew!

Ooh. Locked and loaded.

You know, I don't
usually like your thing,

but I would hit it.

I mean, obviously, and you can join in.

I'm not usually into,
what are you particularly,

what do you call yourself?

I don't know what's like
the right thing to say.

- It's very-
- Asian?

I miss you.

Hey, how's the baby? What's Billy up to?

The baby's fine, but there's
a little problem with Billy.

Did he bring something
inappropriate to school again?

Oh, you mean the box of sex toys?

No, someone's a little upset

we didn't name the baby Nightwing.

Up next, we are screening our TV pilots.

Now I myself have auditioned
for dozens of pilots.

Oh hey babe, I gotta go.

They're screening Killing Karens.

Okay, okay, good luck,
good luck, good luck.

I love you.

Oh, okay.

Do you think the execs like it?

Sic Semper Karenus.

What do you call people from Vermont?

Vermontians. I don't know.

No, that doesn't sound right.

I can't tell.

Okay. I was a singer
in a rock and roll band.

I used to open for a Bush, at Cobo Arena.

So I know a little
something about big moments.

Got the scoop on our
competition for best pilot.

- Give it to me.
- Agony of Defeat.

One man's quest to find the
world's most enticing foot odor.

That would kill on OnlyFeet.

The Cleaner, an AI talking
vacuum befriends an insurance

adjuster.
- Very timely.

The Germinator, a Wuhan love affair.

Hmm hmm.

And the Mensch Connection.

Adventures in Jewish Matchmaking.

Unless it's porn, I think we got a shot.

I am worried about you.

What? I'm fine.

Anna, you threw a machete at him.

I missed.

You know, I spent 15
years trying to fix Dwayne.

I moved from Brooklyn to
Pewaukee only to find out

that his first, second,
and third priorities

was not his family.

Mom, please don't compare
my husband to that man.

He didn't even like Pewaukee.

Well, I love Pewaukee.

Yeah, but does Eddie?

I mean, is this his home

or is it out there?

I don't know. We haven't
really talked about it.

Well, don't you think you should?

Mom, I'm happy.

Isn't that what matters?

Eddie loves me and he's an amazing father.

He's a dreamer.

Yeah. But that's the
best part about him.

He's got ambition, he's got imagination.

He's-
- I understand.

But you know what?

It's just-
- Mom. Let's just not do this.

Can't you just trust me?

Stay. I'll go get Nightwing.

Can't believe I just called
him that. What's wrong with me?

Oh, can you get me my new
breast pump from the garage?

And that is why I
have never had a better

love scene partner than Mr. Pauly Shore.

Yep.

Anyway, I have the nominees here

for the best pilot at the
Hollywood Elites Film Festival.

So could you say just one word?

One word that describes how
you feel about filmmaking?

I would like to turn this
over to Larva. Larva.

- It's actually Lavra.
- Oh, okay. I'm sorry.

Larva, everybody.

It's Larva.
- Lavra.

And there is your word, Larva.

You may exit.

Thank you so very much, Larva. Step back.

Of course, might I say about Larva's film.

She did a wonderful,

wonderful film about her
beautiful city in the Ukraine.

Although I would imagine

that it doesn't look like that anymore.

Yeah. Sadly.

Okay. Next.

Yeah.

- Um-
- Don't touch the mic.

Thank you.

- Patience.
- Awesome.

Thank you so very much.

And you could step back as well.

It is great for our audience

to hear such hard-earned wisdom.

Right? Just, it's amazing.

All right, it is time to present
the award for best pilot.

We had so many unique and
deserving nominees this year.

Of course, that is a staple
here at the Hollywood

Elites Film Festival.

You know, it just, it just reminded me,

when I was an actress,
I played a small part

in Sex and the City, which-

She just played a waitress.

Of course, won an Emmy for
Outstanding Comedy Series.

So I think I know what
it's like to be part

of an award-winning production.

Hello.

Thank you so much. You're such dears.

You're such dears. Real sweet.

Sweet sweets. Okay.

So the winner of the best pilot

for the 15th Annual
Elites Film Festival is

Agony of Defeat!

We just lost to the OnlyFeets guy.

Hey, we lost our category. Huh?

Actually, Kevin, we didn't
just lose, we got beat

by a guy with a foot fetish.

- Huh?
- Yeah.

Tarantino wannabe.

This whole festival's a freaking farce.

What? I paid 50 bucks for this wheelchair.

So whatever. Okay?

Were we supposed to
pay for a wheelchair?

Oh, yes, sir.

The Corolla is a dependable model.

And this baby will last you for years.

I can let you have it,
but hold on, hold on.

Let me talk to my manager.

As you know,

the grand prize is a development deal,

which is of course, priceless.

Tell you what's priceless.

Storing body parts in your
mother-in-law's garage.

Hey, I still think we have
a shot at the grand price.

'cause actually Sadie says that-

We don't, Kevin.

We lost. It's over.

Okay, the grand prize winner

of the 15th annual Hollywood
Elites Film Festival is

Killing Karens!

Hey, I'm Jackson Black.

Sorry.

Hold on.

Sic Semper Karenus!

God, yeah!

Wow.

Killing Karens may come across
as a offbeat horror story,

but it came from a personal experience.

Karens can come in all shapes and sizes.

We all know who they
are. We've all seen them.

We probably all had the chance
to intervene, but didn't.

But the Menacer does.

He sees the trauma that Karen's cause

and puts a stop to them
from happening permanently.

I, uh.

I wouldn't be here tonight

if it wasn't for my psychotic
brother-in-law, Kevin,

without my producer

and best friend Joe on
whom this story is based.

And most of all, without the most

understanding wife.

She couldn't be here today.

She...

I...

I wanted to thank...

I, I...

Beautiful.

We won. We actually won.

What?

They won!

Oh, fuck.

Joe.

We did it.
- Yeah!

How did we do it?

'Cause we're like, John
effing Carpenter, bitch.

We're like, we're like, Shohei Ohtani

and Jordan Peele made a baby.

- Huh?
- Show him the-

Can I buy you a drink?

Great.

And I wanna hear all about the
time you drove the Zamboni.

Oh, well, a lot of people
think it's a C class vehicle,

but it's actually not regulated that way.

Basically-
- This is some

crazy shit, man.

No woman has ever bought me a drink.

And when did he get so smooth?

Which I've got all three. So-

I swear to God, I've
seen Kevin eat glue.

No, no, no, no, no.
I'm talking about this.

The festival. Karen Brazo Fuerte.

Miguel's orange juice. We won, man!

We won.
- Are you talking about-

Highway!

Hey, hey, hey, Stranger Things.

- What?
- How does my ass taste?

Yeah, bring it in.

Keep going, keep going. Yeah.

Oh. It's everywhere.

Oh, my spleen, oh.

We are the Ice Gophers,

we go for the goal.
- Dad!

There he is.

Oh, I missed you. Yeah!

That looks like a participation trophy.

They won.

- Yeah, we won.
- Well, good.

So now you can pay me back.

- Well...
- Well, not just yet.

There's still a few more
details we need to figure out.

Okay. So the investor gets screwed.

Hollywood is a place

where they will pay you a
million dollars for a kiss

and 50 cents for your soul.

- Oh.
- Everyone knows that!

Ah! I love these guys!

Yeah!

I said I wanted to see you again.

No, I wanna see you again!

Yeah, well, I can always,

I can always come there
or, yeah, I can come there.

Not everybody's ready for the challenge.

I've read that breastfeeding works best.

Really?

Well, there's not much
I can do about that.

Mm.

You're a weird guy, Joe.

Grandma, can I feed the baby?

Yeah.

No! What are you thinking?

Take that thing off.

Dad says we don't want
the baby to grow up scared.

Yeah. Sounds great.

Thank you guys.

Yeah. Yeah, sounds good.

Yeah. See you in LA.

So?

They're serious.

It's a real development deal.
They wanna start meetings.

Oh, I'm so proud of you.

Only thing is they,

they want me to come out to LA

for four weeks for
meetings starting Thursday.

So you'll miss Billy's play.

I know.

Eddie, if this development deal

develops into-

- A green light.
- Right.

What happens next?

Well, if the show gets
picked up, we'll move to LA.

No more telemarketing.
- Honey.

I'll be doing a job that I really love

and getting paid for it, this could be

just the beginning for us.

Eddie, I'm not uprooting Billy

and Nightwing

and I'm not leaving my family.

But this was our dream.

No, your dream was to get
into a big Hollywood festival

and you did.

And you won, and you have
this development deal.

And that's crazy.

But we always talked about
chasing something together.

Whatever happened to that?

Mm mm mm mm.

You sold your three best gnomes

to give Eddie the money.

Even Yannis?

- Not Yannis.
- It backfired.

I mean, all I did was
keep him believing in this

stupid Hollywood dream.

And Eddie bagged the grand prize.

Hm.

You know, I always knew he had that.

Oh, what's the word for it?

You think he's really gonna
get a show in Hollywood?

What do I know?

Does it matter?

I mean, I made a bad call.

It's not your worry anymore, you know?

'cause you're gonna be
at Sunrise Estates soon.

Three years on the waiting list.

You must be excited that you're
finally gonna get your spot.

Yeah. Yeah.

I'm thrilled.

Yeah, totally.

That works for me. Yeah.

And I, I got the show Bible
done. You're gonna love this.

You heard that? I'm rewatching
Halloween for research.

That was Jamie Lee Curtis.

Great.

I'll see you Thursday.

Who was that?

Someone I'm gonna be working with.

Hey buddy. Can I talk to you
about something important?

Yes. I'm a big brother now.

Well, technically yes,

but you still gotta listen to Mommy.

Are you going to miss my play?

I'm working for a
really big company now.

I have plans and schedules
and I'm a part of them now.

I can't.

Okay, remember when Charlie
got the golden ticket to go to

Mr. Wonka's Chocolate Factory?

- Uh huh.
- It's kinda like that.

Only with this-

Why do you wanna leave us?

Buddy, I don't wanna leave you.

It's just

this has been a dream of
daddy's for a long time.

Hey, I know you're scared.

I'm a little scared too.

Daddy, if you're scared,
you should take Pompeii

with you, he'll protect you.

Thank you.

Now this is what big brothers do,

but I can't take Pompeii.

He's here to protect you.

I don't want you to be scared.

You're gonna be all alone
with nobody to count on.

We made it.

Let's go kill some Karens.

Suits on. Shoes on.

Let's get you that third house.

Eddie!

- Hey.
- Hey. Good to see you buddy.

- Hey.
- We're here to protect you

from the suits.

- Okay. Yeah.
- Cuff links, nice.

Hey, Lana, Bosley.

These are my agents, Javi and Randon.

- Hi.
- Great to finally

meet you in person.
- Yeah.

As you know, I drafted-

We put this together and we would love

to talk casting.

As you know, we represent the top 60%

of the industry.

Great.

But first we have some exciting news.

We had consumer insights run the concept

by our focus groups.

- Amazing.
- And the title

Killing Karen's is, frankly,

a bit dark for our algorithms.

- Dark.
- It is a bit dark.

What our audiences are
really looking for the show

to do is explore love.

- Love.
- Love.

All you need is love, baby.

Exactly.

The Menacer-

Needs a romantic interest.

What do you guys think about Jojo Siwa?

Love her.

- Yes.
- But more than that-

The Menacer is not a killer,

per se.
- No.

He's more of an unarmed social worker

Or a behavioral health
specialist who listens

to the community and
counsels those in need.

Mm. Yes, yes, yes.

We have just the right leading man.

He's-
- A Mark Zuckerberg type,

but with empathy.
- I don't understand.

Mm.

That's okay.

But before we talk casting,
Lana, why don't share

what Hillary was thinking about-

- Percy.
- Percy?

Percy Gavelstone?

The Gavelator.

- Yes, he's written two-
- Rom comes.

Yeah. We rep him too, so.

- That's exciting.
- What is Percy going to do?

- He's your showrunner.
- Okay.

So if he's in the writer's
room, how am I going

to ensure my vision?

Well, your concept is strong.

- Very strong.
- Two strongs make a right.

But you're not leaning
into the restorative justice

themes at the college educated,

BIPOC suburban women are looking for.

- Mm.
- Yeah.

- So what's my role?
- This is your idea.

- Totally your idea.
- Completely.

Especially after we
ran the modifications

through our AI simulation test group.

It's top decile.

Million iterations don't lie.

Went from a Prank
Encounters to a Squid Game.

So if we're moving
forward, we'll set a meeting

for you on the top floor with Hillary.

Oh, and we buried the lead.

You're gonna love the new title.

- New title?
- You wanna tell him?

Embracing Karens.

What have we done, Pompeii?

Hey-
- Hey honey,

I only have a second, I
wanna hear how it's going,

but it's crazy over here.
- Oh, well, I-

Can I call you right back?

Oh. Oh, okay, I-

- I love you.
- I love you too.

Hey, what are you doing
sitting alone with a teddy bear

and staring at the children?

- What?
- I know all the parents here

and I don't recognize you.

Uh-huh, predators can't be
within 2000 feet of a park.

I'm calling the police.

Yes, yes, it's me again.

Eddie, what the hell are you doing here?

I won. I won the development deal.

Good.

No no no, Mr. Hawkins, I need your help.

What are we talking about? Hmm?

They got money for art advisor?

I just need to talk to you.

All right, come on in.

Let's get out of the light.
- Okay.

Have a seat.

Yeah, I used to live in Bel Air,

but it's simple math, really.

Four kids, three ex-wives, two girlfriends

and a former show dog.

So you have a family?

Yeah.

I see my youngest once a
year. That's all I could take.

He loves Disney, so all my residuals

go to that effing mouse.

What was this about needing an advisor?

You know what?

Maybe this is the best time.
- Sit down, look at me.

Look at me.

I am Bob Hawkins.

The horror whisperer, the bearer
of terror. People love me.

People admire me. You sought me out.

Now why are you here sitting
with me and Rathbone?

Well, I'm meeting with
an executive tomorrow,

but they want to gut Killing Karens.

So what's the problem? You getting paid?

They give you notes?

Then they give you an enema.

It’s...

it's not my show anymore.

Don't be a baby. Suck it up.

What did you think was gonna happen?

Did you think you were gonna
impose your art on them?

You got what you wanted.

You got the show and now,
now you know the truth.

It's not a chocolate factory,

it's a butcher shop.

I am not going to
celebrate that woman's life.

I don't know. Make something up.

You said that you're creative.

Well, I'm not going to
your mother's funeral.

God, I should've never married him.

Alright, what can I do for you?

I thought I'd meet with
you today without my agents.

Oh, are there any problems?

They said the development
deal looked good.

It's generous. Nine months
guaranteed for season one.

That's more money than I ever made

slinging dead presidents

And created by and
executive producer credits.

Your agents demanded. And we agreed.

But my idea, it's-

They're getting paid for your idea.

Whether you have one more idea

or whether you write
one more scene or not.

All you have to do now
is sign this contract.

But that's the problem.
It's not my idea anymore.

Mm.

So the core of your idea is taking

care of Karens, right?

Well there are 13 ways to do that.

Percy. He has ideas.

Our AI generated focus groups have ideas.

You had idea.

Yeah. Well no, I've
thought about this for years.

It's my thing.

Eddie, you are going to
be in the writer's room

with seven other talented writers.

Believe me, your voice is
going to be heard. Okay.

All I need you to do is sign this

so we can make your dreams come true.

Let me think about it.

Embracing Karens.

We need to gut this suit.

She's a Hollywood exec.
I'm a kid from Pewaukee.

These execs are shitting all over us.

I'm nobody.

I would rather die than be turned into

a flacid farce.

On second thought. Do you have a pen?

I do.

If I sign this, I get
paid no matter what. Right?

- Well, yes, but-
- And you can do

whatever you want with the show.

- Well, yes, but-
- You got it.

You own the idea.

You can make the Menacer a
ballet dancer if you want.

Well, only if the algorithms say.

Pay me.

But I don't want anything to do with it.

I don't want my name on it. Nothing.

Wow.

Well, good.

The only thing I embrace
is a buzz saw.

Let's go home.

I could murder a butter burger.

I almost cried when you
got murdered in the Senate.

Did it hurt?
- Nah.

I convinced Miss Feeney

to use Dad's knife from Crux of Fear.

Mom, look!

Hey bud.

Oh gosh. I missed you.

Did you see it? Did you see my play?

I did. You nailed it.

You nailed the speech in the
Senate. I knew you would.

What are you doing here?
Why aren't you in Hollywood?

Couldn't miss Billy's play.

When are you going back?

I'm not going back.

And now we're back here.
Like nothing's changed.

So what are you gonna do next?

Well actually I had this

really good-
- Joe Adcock.

Pride of Pewaukee.

Festival photo's gone?

All glory is fleeting.

Is that her?

Yeah. My Uber's here.

- Kevin.
- Yeah.

Sidney Crosby jersey.
Signed and delivered.

Man, here, you keep it.

What?

I thought that-

Yeah, sure. Great.

Ow!

You gonna teach Sadie how to skate?

No, she's gonna teach me how to surf.

I'm sorry I'm leaving.

It's okay.

Miss me, okay?
- Yes, ma'am.

- Bye Kev.
- See ya.

- Gonna be okay?
- I'll be okay.

Excited for Sunrise Estates?

I decided not to go.
It's not the right time.

- What?
- Yeah.

My Neverland. Eh, it could wait.

Hey Joe.

- Yo yo yo.
- What's up?

Fantasy football draft tonight.

Got the third pick.

I already told you. You can pick for me.

Dude. I might stick you with Derek Carr.

Whatever dude, I've got an
important new film project.

Derek Carr it is.

Cut.

Billy, you're the Demonizer.

You can't make Nightlwing giggle.

How can I guard this crib?

I can't see a thing in this mask.

Hun, can we just cut out
some eye holes for Billy?

Can we get one more shot?

- Eddie?
- Oh, tell Joe

to take Patrick Mahomes
and I'll call him later.

It's someone named Bosley.

We're busy.

Alright Billy, gimme your
best Demonizer scream.

- Roar!
- Yeah!

You protect the weak.
You're the Demonizer.

Meatloaf.

Oh, thanks, Nancy.

Billy set?

Set.

Nightwing set.

He's set.

Alright, gimme a roar.
