Episode 17

## Day 6

Robin is being led down the hall to the Blood Room by Arnaldo. He maneuvers away from him and dives through a door. Arnaldo attempts to reach through the door and grab him, but something down the hall catches his attention, and he locks Robin in the room. Inside the cramped room, which is made of planks of wood like a wooden crate, is only a little door on the opposite side of the room. A bare lightbulb hangs from the ceiling. Robin attempts to open the door but finds it padlocked. He attempts to jimmy the lock with the knife he palmed earlier, but fails. He kicks the padlock to the metal door, and it finally gives. He pulls open the door. A steady stream of cats begins to pour into the room. He tries to close the door, but too many cats are coming in the door. The room is filled with a cacophony of meowing. He lights his lighter and crawls into the cat tunnel.

Remy is led down the hall to the Blood Room. On the way, she hears meowing through one of the doors, but Arnaldo pushes her down the hall. She enters the blood room and crosses it to the door on the opposite side. She picks the lock and hears Dr. Jack on the other side, presumably talking to some women.

Arnaldo escorts PT to the Blood Room. PT tosses back another elixir. He and Remy attempt to plot their escape.

Robin is walking, hunched, down the stone tunnel full of cats, which exits into a larger chamber.

In the Blood Room, Remy hands PT a stake, and they wait on either side of the door into which Dr. Jack disappeared, listening to footsteps coming closer.

Robin reaches a hallway in the dark chamber. Along the way are some chains with a manacled skeleton.  Robin starts down the hallway, looking for a torch or other light.

A mist unfurls from under the door in the Blood Room and one of the (vampire) ladies emerges. She attempts to seduce/hypnotize Remy, who is completely unfazed by this. She trips over her cloak/dress and stumbles to the ground, where PT excitedly attempts to pull out his pocketwatch to hypnotize her. She hisses and bares a large set of horrifying teeth at him.

Robin reaches the end of the hallway and finds the  back of the fireplace from when they first arrived at the house.

Remy dives onto the woman, stakes out, and stabs her with both. She explodes into a cascade of blood. The other (older) woman drops Dr. Jack’s body and looks over at PT and Remy.

Robin tries and fails to find a lever to flip the fireplace back around, but recollects that Dr. S said it can only be turned from the control room. He turns and walks back up the hallway.

Remy runs back into the Blood Room from her prone position, slamming the door behind her. The woman slams against the door, and Remy aims her two stakes at the door. PT stands up to go grab one of the couches as the woman throws open the door.

Remy goes in for the kill with both stakes, and she attempts to swipe Remy aside. Remy is too quick for her, and sinks one stake through her brain and one through her heart. She explodes into two geysers of blood from the wounds. PT tells her they should rush the third woman (Janelope).

Robin is loping through the hallway, and the meows start to die down. He hears a very low-pitched and rumbling “Meow. Meow. Meow.” Something shuffles toward him down the hall. Robin closes his lighter, switches sides of the hallway, and continues to inch down it.

PT and Remy close themselves in the second chamber of the Blood Room, listening for the approaching moans and groans of TP. They are preparing to run if Arnaldo approaches, preparing to attack if TP approaches. They notice a speaker box in the room.

Robin glimpses the cat-looking creature, who has a strangely stretched-out human face, loose and swingy teets, and is roughly the size of Arnaldo. The creature shoves a passing cat into his mouth with his weird furry stretched-out clawed paws. Robin continues in the opposite direction, attempting to grab a cat along the way.

PT and Remy hear TP enter the first chamber, closing the door behind him. PT hears the voice of TP in his head. He rips the door open, in the wrong direction, and throws Janelope through the entrance. He leaps through and tackles PT, hard, who attempts and fails to stab him. Janelope hisses at Remy, who stabs her in the head with both stakes. PT stabs TP in the neck with his stake, and he stumbles back. He attempts to get out of the room, but Arnaldo throws him back in. Remy double stabs him in the chest with her two stakes. He begins to age and shrivel, and then his skeleton erupts from his body. Then he basically explodes. Remy catches the ruby as it flies off of TP.

Back in the hall, Robin manages to scoop up a saucer-eyed orange tabby kitten. The cat monster picks up speed as it lumbers through the dark toward Robin.
