About:
- Date: January 1, 2018

Plot:
- Andrew Cunanan goes on a multi-state killing spree of gay men, culminating in Florida with famous designer Gianni Versace. Not a work of fiction, which makes the tragedy all that much more heartbreaking.
Thoughts:
- Andrew's pathological lying, even when there's no reason
- Aimee Mann's cover of The Cars "Drive"
- Cody Fern and Finn Wittrock (American Horror Story alums) and their entire devastatingly sad plotlines
- Telling the narrative story backwards, to flesh out the people behind the victims
