The next day, Analise navigated the map to the initial location within the house where her mother had concealed a task list, specifically within the air vent of the living room. This list included the names of three women who attended high school with her mother, alongside descriptions of their actions against her; they had placed cockroaches in her mother's backpack. Analise recalled her mother recounting the cockroach incident, although she never disclosed the identities of the perpetrators. Her mother, who had a deep-seated fear of cockroaches, lacked the heart to crush them and instead released them in a field behind the school. The incident had distressed her mother, particularly because the backpack was a cherished gift from her grandmother, Cassandra, Analise's great-grandmother. At the bottom of the list, her mother had written, "I knew who was responsible but chose not to speak up, as I feared the consequences." Understanding the significance of the backpack to her mother, which was still stored in her closet, Analise resolved to seek retribution. She accessed freepeoplesearch.com and discovered that all three women resided in the neighboring town, which could be reached more quickly via back roads. The three women were roommates, and she made the decision to eliminate them later that evening.
Analise shared her scheme with Michael Myers, who nodded in silent agreement. She relished those moments when he chose to remain quiet, embodying the chilling persona that made him an iconic figure in the Halloween series. After dinner, Analise, Michael, and their dog Cujo set off toward the home of their three targets, while Mark, Rusty, and Mick stayed behind with Casey, Lilly, and the other dogs. They crept into the driveway of a sprawling ranch-style house. With a firm knock, Analise waited, and as soon as one of the women opened the door, Michael swiftly shoved her inside. The three women gasped in terror as Analise fixed her gaze on them and declared, "You don't know me, but you knew my mother, Lilly Bates." Before they could react, she whistled for Cujo, who lunged at one of the women, sinking his teeth into her. Meanwhile, Analise and Michael unleashed their fury on the other two. The satisfying thud of Analise's hammer striking the woman's face echoed in the air as she taunted, "I bet you regret bullying my mom now." Michael, with his cold, unfeeling stare, repeatedly plunged his knife into his victim's abdomen. Once the screams faded into silence, Analise, Michael, and Cujo tilted their heads in unison, almost admiring their gruesome handiwork. As they turned to leave, a small Doberman puppy appeared at the top of the stairs. Analise scooped it up, and when it licked her cheek, she looked at Michael with pleading eyes. Understanding her attachment, he whispered in his signature tone, "Yes, we can keep him." They climbed into the car, Cujo giving the puppy a friendly lick, and drove home. Analise checked the puppy's gender and discovered it was a boy, deciding to name him Norman in honor of her grandfather.
Upon returning home, Analise, Michael, and Cujo were greeted by Casey, who rushed to embrace them. His excitement grew as he noticed the small Doberman puppy cradled in Analise's arms. She presented the puppy to Casey, explaining, "His name is Norman, named after my grandfather, who is also your great-grandfather." Casey exclaimed, "He's adorable; he will fit in perfectly with the other dogs." After placing Norman on the ground, the other dogs welcomed him into their group with gentle licks. Analise observed Lilly tenderly sucking on Mick's finger, prompting Mick to remark, "She just started doing that; when she looked up at me with her beautiful brown eyes, I couldn't bear to pull my finger away." Analise carefully lifted Lilly and said, "Okay, Casey, it's time for bed. My aunt Rose mentioned she can begin homeschooling you with the other children, so you need to rise early tomorrow." Casey complied respectfully and ascended the stairs to prepare for bed. Analise fed Norman a mixture of leftover pasta and dry dog food before everyone settled in for the night. After Casey lay down, Analise kissed him goodnight, while their dog Shep positioned himself beside Casey's bed. Analise and Michael Myers also kissed Lilly goodnight and shared a kiss with each other before drifting off to sleep, while the other dogs—Lucas, Rufus, Cujo, Max, and Norman—fell asleep in the hallway.
