Plot[]
Walking in town, Lotton finds Sawyer the Cleaner and asks if he kept her waiting. When she turns around, both are surprised and look into each other's eyes. Lotton holds out his hand in a stop gesture and asks her if she is still angry that he was late for work, saying that she can deduct money from his paycheck. Recommending that they go, the two go to a tall building and Lotton eventually finds Sawyer, who is cutting up a woman and child's corpse. Shocked to see her, Lotton clarifies that he knows it is just a job, but he politely asks not to see her mince apart women and children. Turning around, Sawyer shows a wide, gleeful smile, and Lotton tells her to call him if she needs any help. As he walks into the hallway, he sees a man at the hall's end, who immediately runs when Lotton spots him. His gaze focused on the hallway, Lotton softly tells Sawyer about seeing a man just then, causing Sawyer to stop her work and run into the hallway with her chainsaw, beginning to chase down the man with focused eyes and a gleeful snarl.
Sawyer chases the man outside and he falls to the ground. Turning around onto his back, the man holds out his hand and pleads with Sawyer to stop, asking her what he did. Sweating in terror, the man recalls that he saw Sawyer crouching on the side of the road with a sad face and only asked her if she was okay, stating that her response to chase him and kill his wife and child makes no sense. When the man asks her again what he and his family did to deserve the murderous response, Sawyer maliciously smiles and begins to thrust her chainsaw into the defenseless man. Finding her, Lotton interrupts her and asks what is wrong with her, claiming that she is not acting like her normal self. Walking up to her and putting his right arm around her back, he looks into her eyes and asks her if she is okay and tired, telling her that they can talk about it.
With a nervous face, Sawyer suddenly puts her arm around Lotton's neck and leans closer to his lips, kissing him. Sawyer stands back with a happy smile on her face, but Lotton covers his forehead as if to relay bad news. Noticing Sawyer's joy from their kiss, Lotton apologizes and informs her that he does not reciprocate her feelings, surprising her. Elaborating, he tells her that he is not trying to be mean and merely does not see her in that way, asking her to give him a little more time. Her hand beginning to grip tighter on her chainsaw, Sawyer's face turns into a grimace and prepares her chainsaw. In response, Lotton holds out his hand in a stop gesture, declaring that he apologizes if his sentiment has hurt her but he does not want to fight her. Seeing that she is still adamant and holding her chainsaw forward, Lotton supposes that it cannot be helped and he holds up his pistol to his chest, proclaiming that he will respond with his whole heart and soul.
To his surprise, Lotton suddenly gets kicked in the back onto the ground, and he turns his head and is even more surprised to see Sawyer. Looking behind him and in front, he realizes that there are two Sawyers. Pushing up his glasses, Lotton confidently but conceitedly declares that he knew that she was a fake from the beginning, pointing his finger at the fake Sawyer as the real Sawyer charges at her. Although their chainsaws clash briefly, the real Sawyer calmly and quickly thrusts her chainsaw into the snarling Sawyer, who yells at Sawyer to stop as she cuts the imposter apart. Afterward, Lotton puts on some boots and begins to mop up the bloody mess. When he asks the cross-armed Sawyer when she began to see the whole encounter, Sawyer glares and injures him.
