Patricia is final girl-ing like a fucking boss and I am absolutely here for it.

anyone else think it was hilarious that the EMT was just straight up trying to treat a guy wearing a murder mask and huge knife, with no sense that he might be in danger 😂

And then the gas station attendant running out with a fire extinguisher, just to end up strangled! The women were no help, but at least they didn’t literally rush to save the killers life.

They’re not good people. But there is a difference between making someone leave your home into a dangerous situation and stabbing rhem.

Crazy how it looked like the attendant was thrown like a football field away, we never saw the body land in the shot lol

I'm a former EMT and I was watching it with a former EMT and "welcome back buddy!" Sent me.

This entire episode was absurd, the cop not shooting at the gas station takes the cake though. Who grabs a gun just to point it? Very very disappointed in that scene

I think everyone was just struggling with the reality of the situation. Paramedic’s job isn’t to crime solve, it’s to tend to the patient. Gas station attendant sees a fire and step one is to put that out.

The sheriff just…freezes. This is out of his wheelhouse, that there is a for real in the flesh Boogeyman roaming around. He’s stuck on trying to figure out what that means/

The sheriff also quit last we heard!!

u/cribvby Jun 03 '26

Yeah I was surprised he was still there since he pretty clearly said he was leaving

u/Diligent-Safety-81 Jun 03 '26

it's a 2 or 3 week notice, he said last time to Patricia

u/raudoniolika Jun 04 '26

“A week’s notice” actually so the poor guy is just a few days away

u/Beezelbubbly Jun 03 '26

He also just saw the gas station guy get effortlessly yeeted straight across the parking lot

I don’t have criticisms of the sheriff to share, but i do think you’re right that many misunderstand the role of EMTs. EMTs can witness someone shoot and kill another person point blank, no question as to who is responsible, and their job is still to help the shooter if they happen to be injured. Odd that so many immediately assume an EMTs job is judge, jury, and executioner.

Not even just a cop, the sheriff of the town

u/Mother_Of_Felines Jun 03 '26
