Lola spots her brother after school, who walks away without responding. Grace soon arrives and asks Lola if she wants to go eat later. After the pair are harassed by a trio of obnoxious students, Grace repeats her question to Lola, who agrees after Grace finishes her lacrosse practice. When she gets home, Lola searches the house for Andrew, checking every room and narrowing it down to the garage. Turning on the light, Lola finds nothing amiss in the garage, but she neglects to notice a missing axe the workbench's pegboard. As she rummages through the pantry for a snack, Lola ultimately catches Andrew sneaking up on her with the missing axe. The frightened Lola tries to tell Andrew that, regardless of whatever he’s going through, she’s going to tell their parents on him. Andrew reveals that she ''can't'' tell their parents... because they’re dead. Lola freaks out and accuses Andrew of killing them, but Andrew retorts that he wasn’t the one who did so, revealing to Lola that she’s a vampire. The supposedly tainted spaghetti he made for dinner turned out to be loaded with garlic, which is what made Lola sick. He did indeed tie her up in the basement as well, but as an attempt to keep her from hurting anyone else. It failed, as she ripped through them with ease, since vampires have superhuman strength. After compelling her to think back to what happened the other day, Lola finally remembers what really happened:

When she came home from the sleepover, Lola was indeed revealed to be a vampire, having slaughtered the siblings' parents in a state of feral hunger. Andrew, who had witnessed the murders, cleaned up what was left of the bodies and threw them in the trash, neglecting to call the police in an effort to keep his little sister out of trouble. As for the axe, he read online that vampires need to be beheaded to be killed. As a frightened Lola asks how she even became a vampire in the first place, she thinks back to the sleepover, where it’s revealed that Grace was the vampire who bit Lola’s neck and turned her. With Lola fully aware that she is a vampire and knowing that she killed her parents, Lola tearfully tells her brother that she'll find alternate solutions to her bloodlust. Andrew simply tells her that he can’t let her kill again whenever she gets hungry, and moves in to "do the right thing" and chop her head off. The two then end up sharing a frightened laugh when Andrew tells Lola to stay still for her death. After this brief comedic moment, Andrew becomes torn with what to do, not willing to kill his sister and become the sole living member of the family. Instead, he proposes to go after Grace, who is the true source of all the pain. Lola argues that Andrew can’t fight off Grace by himself, and decides to go with him, turning him into a vampire so he can utilize his newfound super strength against her.

The next day, Lola again meets with Mrs. Porter, who tells Lola that Grace has gone missing, asking her if something happened. After a brief shot of the beheaded Grace flashes onscreen, Lola plays dumb to her former friend's whereabouts. Mrs. Porter declares that she’s going to find out what really happened, only to run into Andrew in the doorway. Upon calmly assuring Lola that her brother isn’t actually trying to kill her, Lola confirms that he ''was'', but she killed him first. The two vampires proceed to back the frightened Mrs. Porter into a corner of the office and kill her as Manchester High School's students leave for the day.

High school freshman Lola Pierce (Maddie Nichols) sits in the office of Manchester High School's guidance counselor Mes. Porter (Creator/MollyRingwald), frantically insisting that her brother Andrew (Andrew Brodeur) is trying to kill her. When Lola is asked why she thinks this, she offers to start at the beginning: Lola was at her friend Grace’s (Ja'ness Tate) house for a sleepover the other night, and after getting sidetracked talking about Grace's hot brother and the fact that they TP'ed the house of a girl they hated, Lola says that she woke up to Grace supposedly trying to kiss her in her sleep. Mrs. Porter becomes concerned with what she views as possible sexual assault, but Lola insists that it was a misunderstanding. Going back to her brother, she recounts that his behavior was growing unusual, since he seemed to be peeping on her and wouldn’t give her a ride to school. When Mrs. Porter tells her to get back to class, Lola hurriedly recaps how she sat through her morning classes and got through lunch, but she had started feeling nauseous after lunch. When the nausea passed, she stayed after school for a meeting of the Homecoming Committee, then returned home to see Andrew making dinner, something he apparently never does. Lola mentions that Andrew had made spaghetti that night, and kept staring at her as she ate it. After doing so, Lola ran to a trash can to vomit, thinking that it was because the cheese Andrew used had gone bad.

When the nausea passed, she stayed after school for a meeting of the Homecoming Committee, then returned home to see Andrew making dinner, something he apparently never does. Lola mentions that Andrew had made spaghetti that night, and kept staring at her as she ate it. After doing so, Lola ran to a trash can to vomit, thinking that it was because the cheese Andrew used had gone bad.

Sometime after that, Lola saw her brother researching weapons on the internet, causing Ms. Porter to become gravely concerned that Andrew may be plotting a school shooting. Lola manages to assure the counselor that Andrew wasn’t looking up guns, but medieval weaponry like swords and axes. When Ms. Porter estimates that Andrew may have been doing so for an assignment, Lola mentions that she thought the same thing, but then Andrew tied her up in the basement. A shocked Ms. Porter asks if her parents were in the house when this happened, but Lola mentions that they weren’t, so she ripped through the ties (which she admits weren’t very strong), spent the night at Grace’s, and came to Ms. Porter’s office on this very day. While initially glad to see that everything turned out okay, Ms. Porter asks Lola why she has no marks on her wrists to prove that she was tied up, revealing that she views her as delusional. As a frantic Lola pleads that her brother ''is'' trying to kill her, Ms. Porter nonchalantly writes her a note and advises her to get some therapy, thinking her entire story is a desperate plea for attention.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: When she realizes Andrew is going to behead her, Lola asks, "so I'm supposed to stand here compliantly while you decapitate me?" After a pause, the two bust out laughing at Lola speaking like that as well as how insane this entire situation is.
* AdultsAreUseless: Ms. Porter, the guidance counselor, while concerned with issues of possible sexual assault and an upcoming school shooting regarding Lola's story, doesn't believe the bulk of it, thinking of Lola as a delusional nut. As a result, Lola and the newly-turned Andrew team up to kill her.

* AmnesiacHero: As well as being an idiot, Lola also demonstrates a terrible memory, neglecting a boatload of details that are essential to fill in the blanks of her story. This aspect could be partially justified, as it's implied that memory loss is a side effect of a vampire's bite.

High school freshman Lola Pierce (Maddie Nichols) sits in the office of Manchester High’s guidance counselor Ms. Porter (Creator/MollyRingwald), frantically insisting that her brother Andrew (Andrew Brodeur) is trying to kill her. When asked why Lola thinks this, Lola offers to start at the beginning.

She was at her friend Grace’s (Ja'ness Tate) house for a sleepover the other night, and she woke up to Grace supposedly trying to kiss her in her sleep. Ms. Porter becomes concerned with what she views as possible sexual assault, but Lola insists that it wasn’t assault. Returning to her brother, she recounts that his behavior was growing unusual, since he seemed to be avoiding her and wouldn’t give her a ride to school. Lola then recaps how she sat through her morning classes and got through lunch, but she had started feeling nauseous afterwards. When it passed, she stayed after school for a meeting of the Homecoming Committee, then returned home to see Andrew making dinner, something he never does. Lola mentions that Andrew had made spaghetti that night, and he stared at her as she ate it. After doing so, Lola ran into the bathroom to vomit, thinking it was because the cheese he used had gone bad.

She also saw him researching weaponry on the internet, causing Ms. Porter to become gravely concerned that Andrew may be plotting a school shooting. Lola manages to calm her and assures that Andrew wasn’t looking up guns, but medieval weaponry like swords and axes. When Ms. Porter estimates that Andrew may have been doing so for an assignment, Lola mentions that she thought the same thing, but then Andrew had tied her up in the basement. A shocked Ms. Porter asks if her parents were in the house when this happened, but Lola mentions that they weren’t, so she ripped through the ties, which she admits weren’t very strong, spent the night at Grace’s, and came to Ms. Porter’s office on this very day. While initially glad to see that everything turned out okay, Ms. Porter asks where the marks on her wrists are to prove that she was tied up, revealing that she views her as delusional. As a frantic Lola attempts to plead that her brother ''is'' trying to kill her, Ms. Porter writes her a note and advises her to get some therapy.

Lola spots her brother after school, who walks away without responding. Grace arrives and asks Lola if she wants to eat later, before being harassed by a trio of obnoxious guys and repeating her question. When she gets home, Lola searches the house for Andrew, neglecting to notice a missing axe from the garage. She ultimately catches Andrew sneaking up on her with the missing axe. A frightened Lola tells Andrew that, regardless of whatever he’s going through, she’s going to tell their parents on him. Andrew reveals that she ''can't'' tell their parents, because they’re dead. Lola freaks out and accuses Andrew of killing them, but Andrew retorts that he wasn’t the one who killed him, revealing to Lola that she’s a vampire. The supposedly tainted spaghetti he made for dinner turned out to be loaded with garlic, which is what made Lola sick. He also ''did'' tie her up in the basement, but as an attempt to keep her from hurting anyone else. It failed, as she ripped through them with ease since vampires have superhuman strength. After compelling her to think back to what happened the other day, Lola finally remembers what really happened.

When she came home from the sleepover, Lola was revealed to have indeed become a vampire who slaughtered their parents in a state of feral hunger. Andrew, who had witnessed both murders, cleaned up what was left of their bodies and didn’t call the police in an effort to protect Lola. As for the axe, he read online that vampires need to be beheaded. As a frightened Lola asks how she even became a vampire in the first place, she thinks back to the sleepover, where it’s revealed that Grace was the vampire who bit Lola’s neck and turned her. With Lola fully realizing that she is a vampire and killed her parents, Andrew tearfully tells her that he can’t let her kill again whenever she gets hungry and moves in to chop her head off. After sharing a frightened laugh with his sister, Andrew becomes torn with what to do, unwilling to kill his sister and become the sole living member of the family. Instead, he proposes to go after Grace, who started all the trouble in the first place. Lola argues that he can’t fight off Grace alone and decides to go with him, turning him into a vampire so he can utilize his newfound super strength against her.

The next day, Lola again meets with Ms. Porter. Ms. Porter tells Lola that Grace has supposedly gone missing, asking her where she is. After a brief shot of the beheaded Grace flashes on the screen, Lola plays dumb to her whereabouts. Ms. Porter declares that she’s going to find out what happened, only to run into Andrew in the doorway. Upon assuring Lola that her brother isn’t actually trying to kill her, Lola confirms that he ''was'', but she killed him first. The two vampires proceed to corner Ms. Porter and kill her.

High school freshman Lola Pierce (Maddie Nichols) sits in the office of Manchester High’s guidance counselor Ms. Porter (Creator/MollyRingwald), frantically insisting that her brother Andrew (Andrew Brodeur) is trying to kill her. When asked why Lola thinks this, Lola offers to start at the beginning. She was at her friend Grace’s (Ja'ness Tate) house for a sleepover the other night, and she woke up to Grace supposedly trying to kiss her in her sleep. Ms. Porter becomes concerned with what she views as possible sexual assault, but Lola insists that it wasn’t assault. Returning to her brother, she recounts that his behavior was growing unusual, since he seemed to be avoiding her and wouldn’t give her a ride to school. Lola then recaps how she sat through her morning classes and got through lunch, but she had started feeling nauseous afterwards. When it passed, she stayed after school for a meeting of the Homecoming Committee, then returned home to see Andrew making dinner, something he never does. Lola mentions that Andrew had made spaghetti that night, and he stared at her as she ate it. After doing so, Lola ran into the bathroom to vomit, thinking it was because the cheese he used had gone bad. She also saw him researching weaponry on the internet, causing Ms. Porter to become gravely concerned that Andrew may be plotting a school shooting. Lola manages to calm her and assures that Andrew wasn’t looking up guns, but medieval weaponry like swords and axes. When Ms. Porter estimates that Andrew may have been doing so for an assignment, Lola mentions that she thought the same thing, but then Andrew had tied her up in the basement. A shocked Ms. Porter asks if her parents were in the house when this happened, but Lola mentions that they weren’t, so she ripped through the ties, which she admits weren’t very strong, spent the night at Grace’s, and came to Ms. Porter’s office on this very day. While initially glad to see that everything turned out okay, Ms. Porter asks where the marks on her wrists are to prove that she was tied up, revealing that she views her as delusional. As a frantic Lola attempts to plead that her brother ''is'' trying to kill her, Ms. Porter writes her a note and advises her to get some therapy. Lola spots her brother after school, who walks away without responding. Grace arrives and asks Lola if she wants to eat later, before being harassed by a trio of obnoxious guys and repeating her question. When she gets home, Lola searches the house for Andrew, neglecting to notice a missing axe from the garage. She ultimately catches Andrew sneaking up on her with the missing axe. A frightened Lola tells Andrew that, regardless of whatever he’s going through, she’s going to tell their parents on him. Andrew reveals that she ''can't'' tell their parents, because they’re dead. Lola freaks out and accuses Andrew of killing them, but Andrew retorts that he wasn’t the one who killed him, telling Lola that she’s a vampire. The supposedly tainted spaghetti he made for dinner turned out to be loaded with garlic, which is what made Lola sick. He also tied her up in the basement in an attempt to keep her from hurting anyone else, but she ripped through them with ease since vampires have superhuman strength. After compelling her to think back to what happened the other day, Lola finally remembers what really happened: when she came home from the sleepover, she had indeed become a vampire who slaughtered their parents in a state of feral hunger. Andrew, who had witnessed both murders, cleaned up what was left of their bodies and didn’t call the police to protect Lola. As for the axe, he read online that vampires need to be beheaded. As a frightened Lola asks how she even became a vampire in the first place, she thinks back to the sleepover, where it’s revealed that Grace was the vampire who bit Lola’s neck and turned her. With Lola now realizing that she is indeed a vampire who killed her parents, Andrew tearfully tells her that she can’t let her kill again whenever she gets hungry and moves in to chop her head off. After sharing a frightened laugh with his sister, Andrew becomes torn with what to do, unwilling to kill his sister and become the sole living member of the family. Instead, he proposes to go after Grace, who started all the trouble in the first place. Lola argues that he can’t fight off Grace alone and decides to go with him, turning him into a vampire so he can utilize his newfound super strength against her. The next day, Lola again meets with Ms. Porter. Ms. Porter tells Lola that Grace has supposedly gone missing, asking her where she is. After a brief shot of the beheaded Grace flashes on the screen, Lola plays dumb to her whereabouts. Ms. Porter declares that she’s going to find out what happened, only to run into Andrew in the doorway. Upon assuring Lola that her brother isn’t actually trying to kill her, Lola confirms that he ''was'', but she killed him first. The two vampires proceed to corner Ms. Porter and kill her.

Lola freaks out and accuses Andrew of killing them, but Andrew retorts that he wasn’t the one who killed him, telling Lola that she’s a vampire. The supposedly tainted spaghetti he made for dinner turned out to be loaded with garlic, which is what made Lola sick. He also tied her up in the basement in an attempt to keep her from hurting anyone else, but she ripped through them with ease since vampires have superhuman strength. After compelling her to think back to what happened the other day, Lola finally remembers what really happened: when she came home from the sleepover, she had indeed become a vampire who slaughtered their parents in a state of feral hunger. Andrew, who had witnessed both murders, cleaned up what was left of their bodies and didn’t call the police to protect Lola. As for the axe, he read online that vampires need to be beheaded. As a frightened Lola asks how she even became a vampire in the first place, she thinks back to the sleepover, where it’s revealed that Grace was the vampire who bit Lola’s neck and turned her into one. With Lola now realizing that she is indeed a vampire who killed her parents, Andrew tearfully tells her that she can’t let her kill again whenever she gets hungry and moves in to chop her head off. Suddenly, he stops, unwilling to kill his sister and become the sole living member of the family. Instead, he proposes to go after Grace, who started all the trouble in the first place. Lola argues that he can’t fight off Grace alone and decides to go with him, turning him into a vampire so he can utilize his newfound super strength against her. The next day, Lola again meets with Ms. Porter. Ms. Porter tells Lola that Grace has supposedly gone missing, asking her where she is. After a brief shot of the beheaded Grace flashes on the screen, Lola plays dumb to her whereabouts. Ms. Porter declares that she’s going to find out what happened, only to run into Andrew in the doorway. Upon assuring Lola that her brother isn’t actually trying to kill her, Lola confirms that he ''was'', but she killed him first. The two vampires proceed to corner Ms. Porter and kill her.

High school freshman Lola Pierce (Creator/MaddieNichols) sits in the office of Manchester High’s guidance counselor Ms. Porter (Creator/MollyRingwald), frantically insisting that her brother Andrew (Creator/AndrewBrodeur) is trying to kill her.

Lola mentions that Andrew had made spaghetti that night, and he stared at her as she ate it. After doing so, Lola ran into the bathroom to vomit, thinking it was because the cheese he used had gone bad. She also saw him researching weaponry on the internet, causing Ms. Porter to become gravely concerned that Andrew may be plotting a school shooting. Lola manages to calm her and assures that Andrew wasn’t looking up guns, but medieval weaponry like swords and axes. Lola then mentions that her brother had tied her up in the basement. A shocked Ms. Porter asks if her parents were in the house when this happened, but Lola mentions that they weren’t, so she ripped through the ties, which she admits weren’t very strong, spent the night at Grace’s, and came to Ms. Porter’s office today.on this very day.

Lola spots her brother after school, who walks away without responding.
