Freddy's Nightmares S1E3
Episode 3 "Killer Instinct"
At a track meet there is 2 people about to have a race. The girl is taunting the other. On your mark. Get set. GO! As they are both neck and neck the tauntee hears and hallucinates the voices of her mom and her younger self and both are in distress. This ultimately distracts her ends up losing to the arrogant girl who reigns triumph.
All the coach can do is shake her head as she walks away.
Not too long later, everyone is in the showers/locker room. The person who lost is a girl named Chris. The coach comes up to her who comes to console the loser but gives sympathy as Chris' mom seemed to have recently passed and the coach senses that is what is affecting the performance as of late. The coach continues to give sympathies because as it turns out, she used to be BFFs with her. Despite this, she drops the bomb that Chris is off the team. Nothing personal, kid.
Chris meets up with her boyfriend who tries to console her that it was just one race. Nah, bro. It was one of many. She admits she has big shoes to fill since her mom was like big dog at sports. Chris says she wants to be the very best that no one ever was. Like seriously, Her full name is this episode is Chris Ketchum. I am dying.
The next day she suits up and goes to coach and says she is ready. But uhhhh wasn't she cut from the team though? Coach literally doesn't put up much of a fight and just says "Sure, kid". This is when she just randomly gives Chris a crystal that was her mom's that she now wants her to have. Like, why is she waiting til now to give it her? Plot points I guess. She says her mom gave it to her when she stopped running and at the beginning of every race she would whip this out, have a staring contest with it visualizing she would win and guess what? She did???
Let's take this for a test drive shall we?
She's a rocket to the moon, she says as she does her first sprint since her loss against queen bee.
After the race, Chris and her boyfriend are in the cafeteria where she just can't take her eyes off the crystal thingy. In the lunch line, the lunch worker is being a dick to her for no reason. She snaps at him when he touches her sandwich with his dirty hands David backs her up like a good boyfriend. Chris picks up her crystal and stares at it again but now there's a creepy vibe goin' on.
Lunch worker continues to slice deli meat in front of them as per usual while Chris just lingers until....blood splatters all over her white shirt! Lunch dude sliced off his fingers. Lolz don't you just love 80s tv shows? This is just as convincing as a politician saying they want to make the world a better place.
Out on the track field queen bee be acting hella thirsty towards David but he rebuffs her advances. She still flirts with her "fuck me" eyes and says she likes a guy who plays hard to get. Now her actual boyfriend comes strolling up and I guess he is friends with David. He wishes his girlfriend good luck but the arrogance on her is like "I don't need luck..."
Back on the field Chris is getting ready for the rematch again her. Ready? Okay.
She gets pumped glances at her crystal and says her affirmation "I'm a bullet. I'm a missile. I'm a rocket!" and she flies like the wind, beating the record. Nicky (queen bee) storms off.
In class, Chris is chatting away to David of her triumphant victory which interrupts the class and the teacher calls them out on that. Now she has some attitude on her and yakkity yaks so he punishes her for *gasp* a 500 word essay! Mad AF she concentrates through her crystal focused on the teacher and then...
He starts coughing out cotton? The whole class finds it so amusing but uhh nah it ain't and he chokes to death. I think?
Later that night, Chris reveals to David that she caused it to happen. He doesn't take her seriously at all and tells her to keep it to her damn self. Okay no he didn't really say that for real he is just saying it was all a coinkydink.
Nicky is not one for being a good sport. First she tried batting her lashes at David and she keeps on taunting Chris, even to bring her own mother into it. Aww hell naw she did not! This means war. So while everyone is at the gym working out. Chris is on the bench laying down watching Nicki on the treadmill she does the crytstal thingy again and the treadmill goes hella haywire. Doesn't kill her though.
Back on the track, she runs to David and says she can't find the crystal and freaks the fuck out saying she can not win without the crystal. That fucking sucks. Welp, off to do the race. Nicki and Chris set to race and well what do ya know? Chris is in the lead, in fact she is so in the lead she uh...breaks her neck.
Nicki was the one who has the crystal. Boo, you whore.
David is seen having nightmare of what happened to his girlfriend. He wakes up to what he thought was Chris prancing through his door and to his bed. She came to say goodbye. She says Nicki did this to her. She pleads for his help and to make her pay for what she has done to her.
Shortly after, David is at Chris' funeral. For some weird ass reason Nicky and her boyfriend are in attendance too and David is pissed TF off at the very sight of her despite Nicky claiming to want to pay her respects.
Nicky starts to get freaked when she thought she the priest (or whoever) went apeshit on her but it was probably her guilty conscience.
Resuming school the coach leads David to Chris' old locker to help clear it out. Here comes trouble. He's still hostile towards Nicky who tries to console him and I'm sure at first she does sound sympathetic but it was obviously all an act. She does try so hard to appeal to his heartstrings but he ain't about that life and walks away from her.
David and Jay (Nicky's boyfriend) are in karate...class?? Guess who is also there. While they are sparring each other, David says maniacally to her "You kill my girlfriend? I'll kill your boyfriend" and one punch man's Jay right through his entire torso taking along some intestines with it.
Guess it was all just a dream?
They are still together and making out in Jay's car. This is when Nicky is confiding in Jay that she is that she is seeing a lot of horrible imagery as of late but Jay is way too horny to give a fuck about feels. Typical. What is it with boyfriend's who don't listen????
In the hallway, Nicky bumps into David (shocker) and she now has a sudden huge personality shift. She tells him to leave her alone and quit blaming her for Chris' death. Blah blah blah. She claims that she is just a competitive person but David calls bullshit bringing up the times she has hit on him and she just can't stand the thought of Chris winning anything. Nicky just says she can't stop how she feels about him. Did she tell her boyfriend that too?
Later that night Nicky gets fashionably late to her parent's dinner party. She then gets such a hilariously eerie welcoming of her own.
Her dad comes after her and demands she apologizes to the mayor's wife but when the maid comes out with the electric meat cutter, Nicky hallucinates again and sees dead Chris instead. She snatches the meat cutter from the maid and yeets it.
She goes to her room and sees more strange shit such as her trophies have morphed into Chris' name. Her father is in pursuit with mother just behind them. Father is convinced that his daughter is on druuuuugs. Drugs are bad, mmkay?
The mother doesn't give a fuck about her daughter and drags him back to the dinner party leaving a traumatized Nicki going cray cray. But don't worry, she has comfort on her side when she heads to sleep.
The next morning, the mother kindly requests if it is best if she takes some time off sports to get herself together. Father has a more harsh approach and dangles how much money he has spent on her. Boi even got the receipts to prove it! Nicky retorts back that she has put her blood, sweat and tears into it but she scampers away after dead ass Chris joins the table.
Back at school, Nicky and the rest of the team are at the gym. She is going HAM on the treadmill even starts chanting the same affirmation Chris once did. However, her personal touches is angrily shouting "BULLET! MISSILE! ROCKET!"
Coach tells her to slow her roll and yeah.
On her walk home, which is night and looks spooky as fuck she gets the heebie jeebies so she starts sprinting home. Suspensity!!! Not a word but whatever. She is able to get home in one piece and unharmed and curls up in a fetal position in her room.
Oop out pops out David that just slids in her room window. She is taken aback but he says that he has come to keep a promise. That comment goes completely over her head but he continues that he made a promise to Chris for making her fall and die.
He has murder eyes and Nicki somehow still has fuck me eyes but David goes over to her recently prized trophy proclaiming it belongs to Chris and wants it back. Nicky snatches it back and bludgeons him to death.
The parents hear her scream and think she's banging her boyfriend but when she looks back. She in fact murdered none other than her boyfriend, Jay. Holy shit. David was not lying bro.
