Tales from the Crypt S2E1
Yo welcome to Season 2!
Episode 1 "Dead Right"
This very pretty lady walks in on her lunch break to visit a psychic because in her own words "what the hell". For a small fee of $20, the psychic humors her as they both sit down at the table. She wanted to see if she could inquire on her "future". The psychic claims that she can read her vibrations but she's like yeah ok lady get with the psychic stuff already.
Psychic seems to hit the nail on the head when she runs her vibe check saying she is a money driven person when it comes to looking for love which has always been her life long desire. The future? Well, Vorna the psychic proclaims that today is the day that she will not only lose her job but she will just as quickly be have a new one by the end of the day.
In she walks in back to work and automatically ranting to a colleague that originally recommended her the psychic. She insults psychic lady and then insults the boss. But wait holy fuck unbeknownst to her, boss man unexpectedly comes back from town. He checks the time card and daaaaamn homegirl took a 90 minute lunch break when it was supposed to be 60 so BAM ya fired!
She strolls down the streets and overhears a man and woman arguing saying she isn't replaceable blah blah blah. Right when she passes by the dude is like "HEY, YOU! Want a job?"
She haz job.
She visits the psychic to be all like "Okay you were totes right about that part, so what?"
A new future is now being told that she will come into huge amounts of money after she is married. In fact, he will inherit the aforementioned money shortly after they tie the knot in which he will die a violent death. "Money, you say???" Well, hot diggity! Her final fortune is that she will meet this mysterious man TONIGHT on the clock.
Her new job as a waitress in this strip club in which she is happily adjusted to this joint. She has no qualms of being outspoken on the patrons there especially this big boy that sits at the table in her section. She's like whoa. He's fat. The boss cautions her that despite her misgivings, he's actually one of their regulars so treat him well.
After she takes this dude's order, he is automatically smitten with her and tries to ask her out on a date but she snubs him. That's when it dawns on her...HIM?!?!?!
She runs to Madam Vorna and she's like "PLEASE tell me that isn't him I'm destined to marry! He give me the ICKKKKK" Madam Vorna assures her that's what her vision was.
After a lunch with a friend (from earlier in the episode I think?) she thinks she should just bite the bullet and marry him especially if it isn't going to be that long right? Then this scene, which totally wouldn't fly with today's standards, is both of them fatshaming the crap out of the guy theorizing of ways he could die. Awkward to watch.
So the next night, he eventually wears her down at work and persuades her to finally go on that date with him. He finally introduces himself as Mr. Charley Marno.
They have a dinner and a movie night which seems fine and dandy at least on his end. He really gets a hoot out of her blunt IDGAF humor. It appears that the more she displays her disgust for him, it only turns him on even more. He's apparently too smitten with her to be insulted because he thinks she completes him or some shit. So lovestruck actually that he proposes to her at her workplace.
She weasels her way into finding out the info that he has a rich ass uncle so now she is seeing 🤑🤑🤑
Immediately get married not long after.
She no longer works at the strip club and has secluded herself to a stay at home wife in which is seriously gritting her teeth the entire time. She snaps at him when she finds out that the rich uncle has a family of his own which means should he die, inheritance all goes to the fam. She storms off.
She yells at Madam Vorna saying all that she was saying was bullshit. That's all and runs back out.
The next day when she is at the grocery store she gets an onslaught of people randomly surrounding her. Cameras, reporters and stuff saying she is their 1 millionth customer so she gets $1 Million Dollars!!!!!! Woooooooooooo!
Happily getting home that night, she packs her shit and unleashes her REAL anger and disgust saying she is finally leaving him. They've been married 3 months now but she made the mistake of bragging to how much money she has now. She continues her mean bodily insults towards him along the way.
He begs her to stay and can't live without her. In fact, he says verbatim that if he can't have her then nobody can. So he takes a knife and stabs her to death.
Next scene we see someone televising the execution of Charley Marno for some true crime television content that Madam Vorna is currently watching on tv. She indeed was right. Now, if you paid attention to the beginning of the episode, she didn't exactly say SHE was going to inherit the money after he died. She was technically TOTALLY right in her specific words, just that she assumed differently.
Then, another young lady strolls on in "Word on the street you can tell futures."
Yaaaaas.
The cycle repeats itself.
Episode 2 is next
