The setup

A new studio staffer can't shake the feeling that the screams coming from the writers' room are more than an enthusiastic table read.

The premise

Here’s the bit.

In the middle of a meeting about the studio's upcoming quarter, a newly hired staffer is rattled by screams from behind the writers' room door. Her colleague breezily insists the writers are just acting out their horror scripts, even as the cries for help grow oddly specific, a chainsaw starts up and the victims begin pleading with her by name. When she finally pounds on the door, a calm writer sends her away embarrassed, but the office soon realises nobody has ever seen that writer before.

Say it with us

Highly quotable.

The writers are going over some horror scripts, so there's going to be a lot of screaming.

Relax, it's a script about writers getting murdered while writing a script, so it's very meta.

Yeah, no, they're all dead. That's my bad.
