I was recommended Glen Powell's shower scene in Episode 2.2 of the horror-comedy Scream Queens. I watched ten minutes of the first episode when it premiered in 2015, and turned it off, but for a shower-scnee, why not give it another chance?
The premise: this is a genre-bending horror-comedy about a serial killer stalking co-eds, all named Chanel, with the headmistress played by Jaime Lee Curtis, the Last Girl from Halloween.
Scene 1: In the last episode, a swamp monster played by Jeremy Batiste killed a patient at the C.U.R.E. Institute, where "the incurable are curable." Wait, I thought we were at a college. The cop is not impressed, and thinks that Outcast Chanel did it. Evil Dean Munsch, played by Jaime Lee Curtis, thinks that the cop is an idiot.
The other two Chanels also think that Outcast Chanel did it, out of frustration because she's so ugly no one will screw her: "The closest shes gotten to sex is when a bookshelf fell on her." Why, did it have a book about sex? I don't get the joke. And jealous because they scored hot dates with the Sleazoid Doctors, Brock and Cascade(Taylor Lautner, John Stamos, left).
Scene 2: The Sleazoid Doctors and Chanels are interviewing Tyler, played by Colton Haynes, who is covered with large orange tumors. Actually not disgusting. So the Chanels have graduated with nursing degrees, and all gone to work at the Institute, and the headmistress became their boss? That's not at all unlikely.
His regular doctors say that it is incurable, but the Sleazoid Doctors think that they can remove the tumors with a CO2 Laser. Except they're are too expensive; there aren't any at the center. So just transfer him to a facility that has one.
Scene 3: A non-Chanel nurse and Chamberlain, played by James Earl, wonder why, if Evil Dr. Munsch was upstairs during the murders, she didn't hear the screams and growling? She must be in on it.
Last season, she was in charge of a college, and plotted some crazy stuff, but the Chanels foiled her plan. Dr. Munsch must have brought them here for revenge, sending the swamp monster to pick them off one by one. So, what are her qualifications? All she has is the honorary Ph.D. that the University of Pittxburgh took from Bill Cosby.
Scene 4: Sleazoid Doctor #1 on his movie date with the Head Chanel. She reveals her favorite hobby: dropping popcorn on the floor, so the fatties feel bad about themselves. He loves the idea!
Meanwhile, Orange Boy and Outcast Chanel bond over stories of being the outcast in their cliques. He shows her a picture from before the orange tumors: he was hot! She vows to get him the money for the CO2 Laser.
More screaming after the break
