Tolly undoes his binding with minimal effort and goes after his next two victims, Wes Stripling and Jenna Gonzales. Tolly starts becoming accustomed to the lack of control he has over his body. This includes succumbing to slasher logic. He justifies the reasons that the marching band should experience some kind of retribution for their actions.

Although Amber warned them to leave Lamesa, Wes and Jenna could not avoid falling into the slasher trope of stupid teen behavior. Tolly finds them skinny-dipping in the stock tank not too far from his house, despite the fact that they are not romantically involved with each other.

Wes observes that someone is watching them from a distance. Someone throws a baton up into the air. Tolly soon discovers that it is Mel, who isn’t skinny-dipping but just happens to be hanging out with the other two. Tolly impales Wes on a pipe, killing him immediately. Jenna tries to escape from the stock tank, but Tolly intercepts her. Mel buys Jenna time by striking Tolly back with her baton.

Tolly uses a pipe fixture to tear off one of the stock tank walls. The water pulls Jenna toward Tolly. She recognizes Tolly from his body language, surprising him.
