One evening at Herrington High School in Ohio, several teachers and the principal leave after discussions about the school's budget. Having left her keys behind, Principal Valerie Drake (Bebe Neuwirth) returns to retrieve them. In her office, she is barred from leaving by Coach Willis (Robert Patrick), who becomes increasingly erratic. As she attempts to leave, Willis impulsively stabs a pencil through her hand. Valerie flees to the entrance, only to find the door chained up and drama teacher Mrs. Olsen (Piper Laurie) outside. She retrieves her keys and grabs a pair of scissors and escapes. Outside, Mrs. Olsen emotionlessly grabs the scissors and stabs Valerie.
