Narrator 0:00

So this girl, her name's Kara. And Kara is about to get kidnapped by a mother serial killer. So one day, Kara had just stayed the night at her friend's house. And she's helping her friend with her chores, and she volunteers to go outside and water the plants. So Kara heads out to the front yard, she grabs the hose, and she starts watering all the flowers and bushes.

And that is when she notices a car driving by. And it's no big deal. But then the same car drives by again and it pulls into the driveway and it parks. And then a guy gets out and he has a binder and he's like, hello, are your parents around? And Kara's like, oh, this is my friend's house. And he's like, well, are your friend's parents home? And Kara's like, they're not home right now. And he's like, well, I'm giving out magazines. Would you mind giving these magazines to them? And then he steps forward to hand her the magazines. And that is when, bam, he pulls out a pew-pew and he points it at her. And he's like, you're coming with me. And he grabs her and he opens the door to his car. And there's a big plastic container in the back seat.

And he points the pew-pew at her and he's like, get in the container. And so she does. And he closes the lid, sealing her in. And then he gets in the car and he speeds away. And poor Kara, she's in this container and she's just panicking. About 10 minutes later, the car pulls over and the guy opens the container and he ties Kara up and he makes her get back in.

Then they drive a few more minutes before the car stops again. And it stops in the parking lot of an apartment complex. And the kidnapper, he gets out of the car and he picks up the container with Kara inside and he drags it into his apartment. A few minutes later, he opens it up and Kara, she's still inside and she's still tied up. So he lets her out and then he sits down with her and he starts asking her lots of questions and writing down the answers on a legal pad like he's interviewing her. And he wants to know her full name, her address, the names and addresses of her friends. He wants to know about her boyfriend, her sexual history. It's weird. And once he's done with this weird-ass interview, he straight up threatens her. He's like, do everything I say or there will be consequences. And then he reminds her that he has a pew-pew. And then, shortly after that, he unfortunately essays her multiple times. And now eventually he tries to get Kara to eat something, but as you can imagine, she isn't very hungry.

So she's like, no thanks, but is there anything I can do for you to like help you? And the kidnapper's like, sure, you can sweep the kitchen floor. So Kara gets a broom and she goes to sweep the kidnapper's kitchen floor. Now, She doesn't really want to sweep this turd's kitchen floor. She wants to appease him so that he doesn't flip out and like suddenly unalive her. And she also wants to learn as much information about him as she can. Because Kara plans on getting out of this one way or another. And she wants information to identify him. So she starts memorizing facts about the kidnapper. And while she's in his kitchen sweeping, she uses this opportunity to get close to the refrigerator. And pinned on that fridge are magnets for his doctor and his dentist.

So she memorizes the names of his doctor and his dentist. And she just keeps on collecting more and more info on him. Like she strikes up a conversation with him and she learns that he was in the military. Specifically, he was discharged from the Navy. And at one point, she's in the bathroom and she finds a hairbrush with long red hair in it. She also finds feminine hygiene products. So she knows a woman with red hair probably also lives there with him. And she also sees that he has a pet Guinea pig and a pet lizard. And she memorizes all of this information too. And then finally hours later, it's around two or three in the morning and the kidnapper, he makes her take a Valium and then he takes her and he handcuffs her to his bed and he restrains her right leg.
