03x05 - Death Becomes Her

Previously on "Chucky"...

God damn it. This
house isn't evil enough.

We've gotta think bigger.

Millions have d*ed
because of the decisions

made inside those walls.

Jennifer Tilly, for the crime
of m*rder in the first degree,

you are hereby sentenced to death.

Fais d'elle ma marionette!

[LAUGHS]

Is there anything I can get for you?

On my way in, I counted six guards.

What I need from you is to
get a single personal item

from each one of these
guards and bring it to me.

Give it to me straight, Doc.

There's got to be something you can do.

I mean, I can't actually die.

It will take an evil of a magnitude

even you can't comprehend.

I'm intrigued.

I miss him too.

You don't have to miss him, Daddy.

He's right there.

There's a k*ller
stalking the White House,

and you're insisting
on throwing a party.

I'm insisting on setting a trap.

They can be my last
three sacred offerings.

And I'll be free of this curse.

That's a nice costume you have there.

You lost?

Hey.

Where is Caroline?

- Who's Caroline?
- I knew it.

You just used me to get
inside, just like everyone else.

I just wish I could go to
the White House with you.

It's just till I k*ll six people.

It'll fly by.

Ladies and gentlemen,

as your Commander in Chief,

it is my duty to confront the
terrible weight of any loss

that we suffer on the b*ttlefield.

As many of you know,

my family and I are no

And while this might be the White House,

for me and my family, it is also home.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.

Obviously, these are
very difficult times

for the President and the First Family.

We ask that you respect
their privacy as they grieve.

[ALL SHOUTING] Thank you.

Oh, Madam First Lady,

I didn't think you were still coming

after that debacle
of a press conference.

- He's tired, is all.
- Of course. You know him best.

But given the President's
demeanor this morning,

I have to ask,

did you tell him about
our little project?

- This cleanup we're doing?
- Of course not.

James doesn't know anything
about what's going on,

and that's how it's going to stay.

Secrets like that can be hard to keep.

- I should know.
- Not when you're keeping them

to protect your family

and everything you've worked to build.

Now, Mr. Pryce, any other questions,

or can I ask you some of my own?

What have you found?

Well, after the mishap on Halloween,

I did a little digging

before the Secret
Service and D.C. Police

could get their paws in things.

The chandelier didn't fall by accident.

Someone loosened the bolts.

Our k*ller is getting more brazen.

And the bolder he gets,

the more we risk losing
control of the narrative.

It might be time to
change the game plan.

We could feed some of
what we know to the media.

I hope you're kidding.

We're knee-deep in this.

There's no exposing the truth now.

If it comes out that we knew something,

we'll look negligent,
or worse, complicit.

That's certainly a risk.

No.

The only way to protect the President,

my family, and ourselves,
I'll remind you,

is to push through it.

But in a hurry.

If the Halloween party is
a sign of what's to come,

Chucky's out for blood.

Something doesn't make sense.

I mean, Chucky can

Why is he doing this?

I don't think it's a

Look, he feels rejected.

He thinks I used him to get
a behind-the-scenes tour.

You did.

I just need to show him
that I don't care at all

that his dad's the president.

I just care about my sister.

So do you think you can fix it with him?

Let's see, can I manage

a proud, delicate, wounded teenage boy

head-over-heels into me?

Yeah, I think I got this.

They've been around for decades.

They go to and from the Residence.

So all we need to do is find a tunnel.
