“Dream Reaper”
If you remember from last week, Sally was shredding ghosts left and right and blaming her friend the Reaper for it. The guys managed to trap her on the stairs with their clever salty jail. Currently Sally is still catatonic on the stairs and imagining a
pleasant life with her boyfriend, “Scott” the Reaper.
It’s worth noting that in Happy Sally Dreamland (HSD) she wears lots of
purple. At least she gets to be in
different outfits than the leggings sweater combo she’s usually stuck in.
To make things a bit more interesting, it’s the full moon
(didn’t we just have one of those?) and Josh is a bit testy. Oh and Aidan hasn’t fed in over 24
hours. This will be fun! So yeah, go find Zoe to help. I’m sure this will go well.
In HSD, Sally is on her laptop and keeps getting IMs from
someone named Aidan who is trying to tell her they want her back, and he’s
there with her, and so on. This creeps
her out and forces “Scott” the Reaper to take notice of their efforts. Also the house is shaking and this is when I
wonder if the neighbors ever notice how only one house on the street
experiences earthquakes. It’s at this
point that Reaper seals them inside. Too
bad there are only 4 hours until the moon comes up!
Zoe does think there’s something she can try to get to Sally,
an old school mind-meld! Aidan only
seems to care about the blood flowing through Zoe’s veins and less about the
fact that her subconscious could get stuck in Sally’s subconscious. Before they can get to it Reaper gives them a
talking to through Sally. It’s pretty
goofy to watch but he does know an awful lot about them. And he uses their continual ignoring of Sally
against them. This is when Zoe gets the news about Sally shredding Nick and no
one is surprised when she doesn’t want to rescue Sally. Of course this forces Aidan and Josh to
reveal their true monster selves to her and the fact that she’s in mortal
danger if they can’t get out.
Back in HSD, “Scott” the Reaper is getting her to leave the
house and throws a big party. Zoe gets
in and tries to get Sally to understand this isn’t reality. Aidan is super hungry and Josh wants to lock
himself in the fridge so he doesn’t notice when Aidan starts feasting on Zoe’s
arm. Zoe notices though and tries harder
for Sally to understand. Josh gets Aidan
off Zoe’s arm and gives him a good talking to about all that’s been happening
since Aidan’s started feeding off of live humans again (like killing those two
girls last week). Aidan crumbles and
knows he’s been terrible but doesn’t know what to do about it. Josh offers himself up but Aidan refuses at
first and then has trouble feeding off him because he tastes funny. Quickly Aidan gets a little high from Josh’s
blood but then starts choking violently.
Sally starts remembering and Reaper tries his best to
convince her to stay with him in HSD. Thankfully
she chooses to go back and the only way to do it is to go back down the stairs
in the same fateful manner she went down them the last time.
She wakes and gets rid of Josh who then releases her from
her salty jail. Aidan’s still a mess but
actually stops to talk to Sally for a minute before excusing himself to go to
bed. Sally thanks Zoe but she’s still
REALLY pissed about Sally shredding Nick and has no interest in ever forgiving
her.
At the end dear Sally is alone again. Naturally.
Wait! Nope, Reaper is there with
her. Sally wants him gone but he’s a
part of her now and isn’t going anywhere.
He’s quite happy to wait for her to slip again. Poor Sally.
