Bloodride S1E2
Episode 2 "Three Sick Brothers"
A dude named Erik is just standing in his apartment while his mother is being a nice maternal ma and tells him to take it easy. It appears he went through a life changing event that is yet to be seen so she is just comforting him before she takes off for work.
He's sitting at the table looking at pictures of the cabin that his mom made a passing comment that she intends on selling. The doorbell rings and much to his delight, it's his 2 older brothers who come to cheer his ass up! Woop Woop!
They have a big happy reunion and help themselves inside the house. Off, one of the brothers spills the tea that it turns out that ol Erik here spent the past 3 years in a psychiatric ward. Ah.
Otto, the more wild of the bunch, is being a silly yet belligerent boi while Georg suggests to get out for a drink Erik says per doctors order that he should refrain from such triggers. That includes loud and abrupt noises. Both older brother troll him but that's brothers for ya...
However, his older brothers ultimately persuade him to step out of the house and head with them up to the cabin for one last hoorah.
Erik is in the driver's seat en route to said cabin and make a pit stop at local gas station to pick up some snacks. All is well so far. Even has small chit chat with the cashier. The second he steps back in the car this chick just pops up yelling SURPRISE! She introduces herself as Monika and Otto explains she seemed like a cool chick to party with.
Great. picking up a random ass chick off the street so things can't possibly go wrong now, huh?
They finally reach the cabin. Otto and Georg help themselves in while Erik stands in amazement. Monika be askin' WHY THO? He's baskin in his nostalgia since it's been a hella long time last he was there. That's it.
Georg and Erik do a cheers to Satan and get the party started.
Monika is laughing away as the brothers are quickly getting drunk and telling her how different all their personalities were growing up. Otto was the athletic one, Georg was the smart one and Erik was the hearthrob. Otto proceeds to take his shirt off and sing drunk. Monika then makes a joke questioning his sanity which triggers Otto dead ass and takes her sarcastic humor as an insult.
He deflects by throwing Erik under the bus. "I'm not crazyyyy. Erik is!" Monika gets skeeved out so she all of a sudden realizes she has somewhere to be so she yeets herself out of there.
But they just realized that they just drove to the middle of nowhere so she cannot exactly leave the cabin anyway. Erik apologizes for the behavior but Monika is suddenly ok. In fact, she reveals that she is training to be a psychologist and is supposedly good at reading people and if she really felt she was in danger she would have ran for the hills. In order to make some conversation, she asks him to tell her more about his family. His daddy in particular. He whips out a picture to show him.
Meanwhile back at the house, Erik's mother comes to his to check up on him and can't find her son. He's no where to be found and holy fuck. She is instantly worried. She finds the open book with the cabin pictures and her head just falls in dread. Oh noes.
Back at the cabin, Erik returns with a drink for him and Monika. She then decides to be a nosey butthole about his life. Asking where his dad is? Oh he s dead? Who killed him? DID HE? She just walked into the wrong territory, yo.
The conversation quickly escalates and her comment saying that Erik does strike her as a killer seems to trigger Otta and Georg for some reason so they give her murder eyes. She picks up on that and now officially asks for a ride back to town. Erik is willing to comply. Too bad his brothers don't. Georg chokes him out while Otto ties Monika up to a chair.
While this is all happening, his phone rings since mommy is worried sick. Otto smashes the phone. Thanks, bro.
The mother is currently at the same gas station they were at earlier. She spoke to the same cashier lady to confirm if she interacted with him. She seems even more alarmed now. Well, shit.
Erik regains consciousness he begs them to let Monika go. After all the taunting his brothers did to her, it's heavily implied that one or both of them killed their dad and Erik took the rap for it.
His attempts to free her obviously falls on deaf ears. Otto is being a goofy disturbing villain while Georg is the cold and dead pan bro. He says they have reached the point of no return because she will for sure report them all if they do let her go soooo too bad? Georg tries to reason with him that they have no choice but to gank her. He holds Erik back while Otto takes a stab at her.
All Erik can do is just look in horror as Ottoo repeatedly stabs Monika to death.
Meanwhile. The mom finally reaches the cabin calling out for Erik frantically. He greets her at the door...bloodied as fuck. All that he can get out of his mouth is that it was Otoo and Georg. What does she say in response?
"Not them again. They don't exist."
WHAT?! He says NEIN his brother killed a young woman in there. The mother cautiously walks in the cabin to find Monika. Monika well just so happens to be IRL a ran over sign taped to a chair. And his dad? He's still alive, you fool! He just abandoned his family.
What a crazy realization that Erik only had a psychatic break. All of the aforementioned events literally did not even happen. Luckily no one was even hurt or killed. His mother drives back to the gas station to return the stolen sign lol while he just sits in the car.
While his mother heads on inside, he hallucinates Otto and Georg again taunting that the car in front of them, whom is a blond lady, that they should torch his car. All that is left is a demented smile and lady a fire explosion.
