I Know What You Did Last Summer - Suspicion Among Friends Amidst Tension
Ray Bronson:
That's a warm welcome.
Julie James:
I thought someone was coming to murder me. This is worse.
Ray Bronson: [Walks in]
Well, believe it or not, I was worried about you. May I come in? I know we're not exactly friends. With everything that's been going on, it just felt sort of wrong not to come in and check on you.
Julie James:
What is this really about, Ray? Cause I'm not buying the whole "I'm worried about you" nice guy act.
Ray Bronson: [sighs]
Fuck it. Look, what the hell were you thinking giving advice like that to Ava?
Julie James:
And there it is.
Ray Bronson:
What...you told her she should track down the killer, and then what? Kill him? Have you lost your fucking mind?
Julie James:
She asked for my help, and I told her what I thought she should do.
Ray Bronson:
Oh, right. Yeah, just give her advice from the comfort of your own home, then send her back to Southport on a suicide mission.
Julie James:
Unlike you, I haven't completely repressed everything that happened to us.
Ray Bronson: [Sighs]
Hey, I deal with that every day, just like you. But to project that shit onto them, it isn't right. Look, one of her friends that's involved works at my bar. She's a good kid.
Julie James:
She clearly did something bad.
Ray Bronson:
You know more than anyone, that sometimes, you can just get mixed up with the wrong people.
Julie James: [Both of their phones start ringing, and the two of them respectively answer them]
Yeah. I do know that. Ava?
Ray Bronson:
What's up, Stevie?
Ray Bronson: [walks past Ava]
Happy 4th of July, Julie. Thought you were never coming back to Southport. So, how'd you figure it out?
Julie James:
That kid Stevie asked for your help, didn't she?
Ray Bronson:
They fucked her whole life up, those friends of hers. She wanted revenge, and I knew how to help her get that. Nothing holds people accountable like a good old-fashioned murder spree.
Julie James:
So you used what happened to us as a playbook?
Ray Bronson:
They tried to erase everything about this place. They tried to erase us! They walk around here pretending that what happened to us never even happened! I had to make people remember. So here we are. It's 1997 all over again. Isn't that nostalgic?
Julie James:
Nostalgia's overrated. Who cares if they tried to erase us, Ray? You have to let it go.
Ray Bronson: [refusing to listen]
You know what? I think I'll say it was you who killed everyone. See, at first, I thought it was a problem, you getting involved. But now, I realize you're the perfect fall girl. Crazy-ass Julie James, who couldn't quite move on, recreates her past, only this time, she's in control.
Julie James: [tauntingly]
What are you waiting for? Hm?
Ray Bronson:
This is gonna hurt, sweetheart.
Julie James: [shouting]
What are you waiting for?!
Ava Brucks:
Gotcha.
