Chapter Four, Girlie Night 3: The Script

Preface

“Dollie” is the name affectionately given to an inflatable sex doll materializing one fine day at the Morning Glory Bed & Breakfast. Subsequently, she became the “mascot” of “Girlie Night.”

“Karin” was the actress and model with whom, at the request of M, I was frequently

working during the composition of Bckpg. She was lovely, intelligent, but very dark. Written with Karin, this scene was hatched with her future film endeavors in mind.

Incidentally, she’d become obsessed with the sex doll, hence the name of the scene

(during GN2, she introduced everyone to Dollie, and posed for numerous photographs.) Recalling the morning she requested it, the conversation went something like this … [re GN3 …] Karin: It should be fun.

Mackinaw: It’s always fun with those two.

K: I’d like to talk to you about your services beyond the reach of “those two.” M: Not sure what you mean.

K: Writing, I’d like to continue writing with you. M: Sounds great.

K: I mean, you know me a little better now. I think we’d compliment each other nicely. M: Huh! Know you’re a twisted lil’ hottie!

K: (smiles) I like you too, Mack. Wanna write something now? M: Got some time. Wha’cha thinkin?

K: I’m thinking I should have enough money together here soon, and I’m thinking I should buddy up with A’Phale …

M: Not the brightest guys, darlin …

K: … I think they’d let me roll my own, and I’d have something to pedal. And who knows, it could be brilliant!

M: No doubt, sweetie. You wanna pen a scene … K: Take Dollie. She’s gotta kill one of them.

M: (grabbin notebook) Dollie. Kills one of ‘em. Okay. K: Horror Porn.

M: Okay. How many we got here? K: Seven.

M: Seven.

K: Three men, four women. M: Okay.

K: I’m keeping them on a couch with a handgun. M: Okay.

K: My male counterpart produces two guns and simultaneously takes out the remaining two guys as Dollie takes the first down.

M: Mmm, ‘kay. It’s totally open you know … any idea what’s goin on?

K: Not really. Something sinister. Something perfectly perverted and horrible.

M: (I noticed she’d begun applyin her lips at this point, which usually meant she was about to get up, depart) What about the ladies? K: I don’t want to shoot them all. M: They die?

K: Of course. Maybe one at a time, but I’m not sure. M: Rape?

K: No, I don’t think so. Just a real horror show. Sexy.

M: Maybe do ‘em each a different way? Maybe talk to ‘em ‘bout death and dyin, pain and darkest fears shit?

K: Yeah, play with them. Then do them according to reactions and such. M: Hmm, death-buffet.

K: Gotta run, we’ll talk in a little while.

M: I’ll have somethin hammered out this evenin … lemmie know if you wanna review. An investigative reporter identifying himself as “Maple Holes John” has forwarded to me a disc containing what he’s calling, “Girlie Night 3: The Script.” It’s a movie and runs just under one an’ a half hours. He’s accessed footage from the Morning Glory Bed &

Breakfast, and pieced it together in an effort to posthumously exonerate A’Phale Video

from twenty charges of murder. He’s also pushin his theory re M and Colette. (Blue boys downtown, wake the fuck up! Maple Holes’s on to somethin.) I’m not sure I’ll ever feel innocent again. After hours in the shower, I still wasn’t clean. It’s snuff. And it’s not

available anywhere, so shut that fuck-up! Maple Holes allows that the St. Louis Post-

Dispatch and the Stl City Police Department are now in possession of this video. I’ve forwarded my copy to my publisher.

Incidentally, the movie exonerates me. There’s a moment there as I’m leavin the party, M hands me a laptop (tho he can’t be positively identified, or even digitally isolated in the footage). I had clearly left before the real “show” begins.

“Dollie” rolls much later that night. Karin and M play it out (again, identification’s

impossible). Dollie incapacitates the first victim. Something inside her vagina appears to have “caught” the member of one male; doesn’t release. Etc. Everything’s there. To my horror.

Some time ago I deposited “the laptop” with my publisher. He passed it along to a journalist working with Maple Holes, one Lee Dickins, who then forwarded it to Stl City Police.

A good writer always backs up his work. An obsessive one might well carry more drafts than he can easily wield or edit. Advise regarding the prudent use of moderate doses of

caution when referring to Bckpg has been bestowed upon me. Allow me then, to simply

present “Dollie” as it was scripted for K.

To my horror, the scene I provided came to life for seven young people in

St. Louis on June 20, 2008. To my knowledge, Karin was not identified among the dead. The legal deposition of A’Phale Video describes her, but general consensus allows “prostitution” where an additional suspect might actually be considered.

Maurice and Paul of A’Phale Video expressed the truth when they expressed “Karin.”

I cannot begin to speculate as to degrees of complicity re Karin, but I absolutely have expressed furious dissent re the closure of this case following the slayings of said constituents of A’Phale Video.
