Synopsis: The episode opens with an error message on Audrey and Rachael kissing's video saying its been removed to due its content being, however, Rachael is still able to see the comments and gets a razor to cut herself when Audrey calls. When she answers, she unable to hear her clearly due to a bad connection, they talk about the video and how they have bitch fests at their schools because of it. When Audrey asks Rachael she wants company and she replies saying it's late, which makes Audrey say "What if I'm already here." After that, Rachael hears a noise outside and thinks it's Audrey joking around. After searching for her, she goes out to the balcony and finds rope tied to the balcony, after pulling it up from over the balcony, she discovers there's a noose at the end of the rope. Ghostface suddenly appears behind her and ties it around her neck while she tries to fight back. But she ends up getting thrown over the balcony and getting hanged by the noose, snapping her neck. Her foot twitches but goes still.After the credits, the camera explores different parts of Lakewood as we hear Piper Shay's podcast talking about Nina's murder and how the investigation unfolds each day. She says it's been four days since her murder and Clark Hudson is still looking for Tyler. We then see Emma, who is listening to the podcast on her headphones as she makes her way to school. She is startled by Brooke (who's with Riley) and asks her why she's read her texts. When Emma ignores her, Brooke stops her and says she's sorry about what she said about Nina and Will at the party. Emma argues why she didn't tell her and Brooke says she was afraid of what Nina would do and admits she was afraid of her. Emma forgives her and three walk into school together. Along the way, Emma asks them if they've been getting any weird phone calls and Riley says it could be Jake as they enter the school.At the police station, Clark is questioning Noah about Brandon James and his obsession with serial killers. Noah says he tried to message Brandon's brother to identify the mystery girl (Daisy/Maggie) he was in love with and none of his theories panned out. Clark finishes off by saying if he tried contacting Kevin Duvall, Noah says no. When Noah is getting ready to leave, Kieran walks in and Noah thanks him for saving his life back at the lake. Kieran says "No problem" and Noah leaves. Kieran asks Clark for the house key and while getting it, Clark asks him what Noah was talking about. Kieran tells him some jocks left him in the middle of the lake and he saved him. When Clark asks who they were, Kieran says he's not a 21 Jump Street snitch and leaves.At the school parking lot, Jake thanks Will for the lift and Will talks about Emma and how she won't talk to Will. He suggests a heartfelt apology and Jake says "Hell yes!" and they start to walk.They stop halfway and Will asks Jake if he deleted the files, and he says yes. Will starts to walk alone, when Jake starts to follow, he notices a trail of red paint behind his car that leads around the side, he follows it and discovers someone had wrote "Doosh" (douche) of the side of his car.Outside the school, Noah and Audrey are at the memorial made for Nina. Noah notices Piper talking to a teacher, she finishes the conversation and walks over towards them and introduces herself. Noah says he's a big fan of hers and her work is addictive, she thanks him. Piper asks them both that she wants to know the real Nina. Audrey says "Nina was a stone cold bitch who got what she deserved." Piper asks her if she can quote her on that, but Noah says no. When Piper asks his opinion on her, he is about to saying something until Jake shouts from afar that someone's ass is toast. Noah pulls Audrey as they try to walk away. But Jake catches up to him and slams him against a wooden column telling him about his car and how it went viral and asks if he did it, Jake says he's dead if he finds out his lying. Jake gives him a small slap on the cheek before walking away. Audrey talks to Noah about his choice of spelling douche and Noah replies saying he should of used spray paint instead of paint.In the school hallway, Riley says to Emma she doesn't care what the press thinks about Tyler saying he's not a psycho and Emma agrees by saying "If he's innocent, why doesn't he come forward." Riley says she doesn't know and thinks he might be afraid, Will then walks over to them and asks Emma if she got his texts, Riley says "Good luck" and goes to her locker. As Emma walks to her locker, she says she did get his texts and Will says he wants a chance to explain himself by saying Nina came on to him because she felt threatened by Emma. As they continue to talk about the situation, Kieran walks over to them and says "That's my locker and I'm pretty sure Emma's done talking to you." As they stare at each other, Emma asks if they want duelling pistols, making Will walk away and shoving into Kieran along the way. Emma and Kieran talk for a bit and he leaves. Audrey walks into the hallway and to her locker. Emma walks over and asks if they can talk. Audrey says "What is there to say?" They argue about the video and how Emma should of stop Nina filming it and how she feels guilty because of it. Emma asks they can move on from it and Audrey asks why. Soon, they receive a text message with the words "Payback's a BITCH" along with a GIF of The Killer facing the camera with Nina's dead body face down in the pool in the background. Soon every student receives the message and Emma is shocked to see its the Brandon James mask.At the police station, Mayor Quinn and Clark are walking into Clark's offices whilst discussing that the last thing people need to see is the mask and Clark says he has a tech guy solving it. They run into Maggie who joins the discussion of Tyler being the main suspect. Quinn leaves and Clark asks Maggie if she is OK and says he'll protect her. Clark suddenly receives a new case as Maggie a text and discover they have to go to the same place and aren't happy with what they read.Outside the school, Riley is seen texting and Noah runs up to her and they chat about the GIF and what they're doing for their doing for their pre-term projects. Noah says he doing an app that links to any downtime satellite away that lets you tool around the universe from any mobile device, Riley jokes that you can just go outside, lay down on the grass and look up. She says he should do it sometime, implying a date. Noah is speechless and laughs, Riley says she'll see him in class and walks away. He tells himself he has no game has as the school bell rings.In Mr. Brandon's room, he tells everyone to put their phones down and they should focus more on their studies than Lakewood's web buzz. Jake says "Who could resist a murder selfie?" which makes Noah say a monologue about how murder is a lonely game and how we share the things we do, as he is saying his monologue, Riley receives and goes to read, Mr. Branson catches her. She apologises and says that her friend from St. Mary's texted that girl who goes there died. Everyone is shocked, especially Audrey who checks her phone. When Mr. Branson is in the middle of saying they should get to what they're doing, Audrey gets out of the chair and runs to the door saying she needs to go to the bathroom. Emma then follows her.In the school hallway, Emma leaves the classroom and finds Audrey leaning over a locker, when Emma goes to comfort her, she pushes her hand away and appears in tears. She says, she called Rachel to check up on her and her mom called, she told her they found her hanging from her ceiling fan, thinking she committed suicide.
