Last week, Scream finally became a horror show on television. After Emma spending nearly the whole episode trying to save Will (Connor Weil) from the clutches of the masked killer, he ends up in a Saw-style trap, and gets his head destroyed by a piece of farming equipment, spraying blood all over Emma (Willa Fitzgerald). Jake (Tom Maden) is also in a bad way, left impaled but alive while finding Will at an abandoned bowling alley. That bowling alley, we find, once employed deformed possible killer Brandon James, whom we also learn may have actually bedded his beloved Daisy, now Maggie, Emma’s mom (Tracy Middendorf). All things together, it was the best episode of the season by far. Being called Scream means the only way you get off the suspect list is by dying, so everyone, even wounded Jake, is a suspect.
