It was evening now, but the night sky had been swallowed by abyssal darkness. The parking lot was almost completely empty. Abandoned, they thought, though they quickly banished this from their minds. The air felt thick. Unnatural.

They stood in silence, blinking, as dread flooded into their veins, freezing their blood. Unconsciously they began to hold their breath.

There was a sharp buzzing and then a single street lamp flickered to life. They fixed their eyes on the glow and allowed themselves to breathe as if sight alone would save them.

Then, a hulking shadow emerged into the sickly, sputtering pool of light. Was he...was it...grinning?

Good value, that poem.

Ever wonder what happened to Brad and Julian after they grappling hooked onto that helicopter in episode 9? No? Well, too bad. Behold!

The smoldering wreckage of Chicago, or at least Brad's house.

Julian's arboreal prison.

Two skeletons.

A crow.

Clubhouse rules.

SALAD rises from the ashes - again - just in time for the spookiest time of the year. Is this episode scary? You better believe it. And if you don't believe it, give it a listen. Just don't come complaining to us when you no longer have pants because this episode scared them off of you.

This episode picks up right where "10: Unpack" left off. Everyone has gotten sick together. Together. You're embarrassing me, and I'm embarrassed. This is embarrassing for everyone. Everything will be embarrassing for forever. For all of us. ...except Devin. Devin's so freakin' cool. I love Devin.
