It's something else here now, something new. From, exclusively on Paramount Plus, it's the series Stephen King calls Scarious Hell. Everything here is impossible, but it's also real. Sci-fi vision calls it the best show streaming right now. We're running out of time and we still don't know the rules. Don't miss what the movie blog calls something you need to watch. Saving those children is how we all go home.

From binge all episodes exclusively on Paramount Plus. Erica must have drew on me again when I was sleeping. Ugh, it won't come off. Jerica? Why did you draw on me? And I swear to GOD, if this has something to do with your OuGi board obsession, I am gonna... Bra, it wasn't me. Ha, ha, very fun.

I'm serious. I got one too. See? Girls, I didn't want to worry you and tell you about this before today, but the numbers are going to be used for population control. How? Everyone was given a number. And later today, everyone will have to pick from a series of numbers. Whose ever number you choose will get eliminated.

And if your number gets picked, you essentially... Die. Yes. What kind of baloney is that? Instead of picking a name, you have to pick a number and just hope it's not your friend? I know this is a lot to take in, but I think it's best for you too to cover up your numbers. No! I want people to know my number so they don't choose me. It might also make them choose you. It goes both ways.

Well, here, let me write down you guys this number so I can remember them when it's time. Jess, why did you cover up your number? up your number. In case someone targets you. You should cover up yours too, Billy Jean. I didn't even think of that. Here. I can help you tape it. There. My mom said we should be getting our numbers any time. I really hope we both survive this. We just have to hope that our numbers don't end up on anyone's list. Choose a number to eliminate. It's time. Three, four, six, seven, two nine, eight, eight, 24-11. No, no, Jerica, no mom. Lizzie, what numbers did you get?

2554, 3663, and 7058. 7058. That sounds familiar. Which one are you going to choose? I don't know who has any of them, so it doesn't really matter. Probably the last one. Or the first one sounded good. I wasn't talking to you, Jess.

No, I know, but... See, I just remembered that that first number you said, yeah, that belonged to Janice. And you hate Janice. She did steal my boyfriend in kindergarten. See? What a brat. Picker. I didn't expect you out of all people to be out for blood. I'm not gonna pick her.

You're not? I'm gonna pick this one. Oh no, you must have picked Daniel. Oh my gosh, is he okay? Oops. Class, as you all know, you got your numbers. So don't be alarmed if students around you begin passing as their numbers get chosen. This is all part of the population control.

How are we not supposed to be alarmed? Daniel just died in front of our eyes. I still need a pick. I don't know who any of these numbers belong to, though. I guess I'll just go with... I don't hear any screaming. That's a good sign. I think...

Jess, you're still alive. So are you. Did you already pick? Yeah, I think most people did. I have no idea who I chose, though. I don't either. Population control complete. What a relief. Would you like to reveal who you eliminated?

Are you going to do it? I don't know. Please don't be anyone I know. Rachel Robbins? I don't know who that is. Rachel Robbins, the woman who was about to cure all cancers, was one of the people eliminated today during population control. More on this coming up. I'm going to hell.

I have a new number, but the population control was supposed to be over. Mom, why do we have numbers again? Unfortunately, we have to do it again. Only 43,000 people were eliminated yesterday. eliminated yesterday. Only? That's a lot. Well, they were hoping for 500,000, so we have to do it again. Okay, well, let me get your number written down so I don't pick it. Jerica, I need yours too. Billie Jean, why aren't you covering up your number? I really don't think people are going to target me. Besides, if they do, who cares? Are you okay? Oh, my auntie didn't make it. I am so sorry. I know she was

like a mom to you. Here, let me get your number written down so I know not to pick it. I'm going to pick 2-233. That sounds like a good one. Wait, isn't that Billy Jean's number? Yeah, I can't believe I actually got her number. She totally should have covered it up. Too bad for her. Jensen, what's your number? I'm not going to tell you. Well, then I could accidentally pick it. I'm trying to write down everyone's number so I don't pick someone I know. Fine. It's 7137. I doubt you have it. Anyways, I'm going to do it now. Bye-bye, Billy Jean. Jensen? Jensen? Jensen got eliminated. Did you do this? No.

Really? Then why are you sweating? She was going to kill Billy Jean. I'm going to make you pay for this. Hey! Stop! I... I'm texting your number out to everyone right now, you little rat.

I'm in big trouble now. Jess, are you okay? No! I made some enemies, and now I'm being targeted. On the bright side, you're still here now. I guess so. What happened? I really don't want to talk about it.

Well, you just have to get through the next 10 minutes. That's how long everyone has left to choose. This is going to be the longest 10 minutes of my life. Bro, did you get this text? Yeah, if anyone has that number, you're supposed to click it. I have that number. No way. Yeah.

Did anyone say who it belongs to? They didn't, but probably someone bad if they're sending out mass text and tweets about their number. Please don't click it. It's my number. Why would they be telling everyone to click your number? You're a nobody. Brian, shut up. Thanks, I guess.

It's because I click the number. another student's number, but Ben, please, don't click it. Nah, deaf picker. She's being a pick me right now. Do you even know what a pick me is, Brian? Yeah, her. I won't pick you. I have two other options. Thank you. Oh my God. Brian! Nah, leave him. He's better off like that. Wait, was that? Did you just kill Brian?

Yeah, he was annoying me. But you're not going to tell anyone. Because even though I saved you, I could still kill you just as quickly. I won't. Billy Jean. I did it. I made it through today. That's her. Wait, what's everyone whispering about? How did you kill multiple people? I didn't.

I just killed one yesterday and one today like everyone else. People are saying that they also saw you pick Brian. I did not. That would be impossible. That's what I thought, until I saw this photo of you and Ben arguing over Brian's body. Who took this? Billy Jean, clearly it wasn't me. It was obviously Ben.

Ben killed his best friend. Yes! I already killed one person earlier today, and it was Lindsay. You're my best friend. But the math ain't mathing. I gotta go. Why is everyone turning against me? I didn't do anything!

Yes! No number! They must be done with population control. Mom, is it true? Is it over? It's over. No more numbers. But, sweetie, yeah? I really want you and your sister to be careful. It's getting messy out there. Messy, how?

People are starting to figure out who took whose life. Just watch your back. You never know who might stab it. I don't understand. We all had to pick numbers. How were some of us the bad guys now? I don't know, sweetie. I wouldn't go in there if I were you. Into the school? I have to go to class.

Brian's parents are here. And? And they're demanding to speak with you. Please don't tell me that they think I killed Brian. They do. You know what, fine. They don't talk to them and settle this once and for all. Now where do you think you're going?

To talk to Brian's parents. Do you forget our little conversation we had earlier? I'm not going to tell him you did it. I'm just going to say we were both with Brian at the time. And I don't know who picked his number. I don't think so. Brian's dad is in the mafia and he can detect a liar a mile away. You're not going to say anything, or I'll make sure you never speak again.

That's going to make me look more guilty. Good. Now walk away. I'm more scared of Brian's dad than him Ben's empty threats. Excuse me, you're Brian's dad, right? Yes. I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you.

Do you know a guy named Ben? Someone looks happy? I just feel so much better now that I cleared my name from Brian. So it really wasn't you? No! I can't believe Ben did that to his best friend. Ben's kinda suss, if you ask me. Attention school. Everyone please return home immediately.

There has been a death on campus that needs to be investigated. If anyone knows anything about the murder of Ben Thompson, please talk to your teacher immediately. You don't think that has anything to do with you telling Brian's parents, do you? I don't know. You're home early. Yeah, they sent us home early because someone at school was murdered. today. I told you to be careful. Everyone's emotions are high after the population control. What's this note? I told you not to tell. Ben? What the? Mom, did you leave this note in my room?

No. What does it say? Nothing, but it was on my bed. Well, I didn't go in your room, so I don't know. Jerica. What? I need your Ouija board. I've been waiting for the day you would ask. Lazang sur-gillet, Pucance-Moyerned 15 minutes. We're like it's their dojo. Preet to play.
