Scream Queens**

Hell Week ended on an intriguing note. The slasher film prides itself on the twist, the surprise that takes you aback, with a character or two revealed as more than he or she appears. Nick Jonas has primarily been a minor secondary character among the vast ensemble. What a series can do, that a film often can't, is grow characters and develop them beyond just background shadows and bit players, allowing the chance to initially see them one way, as a caricature or genre stereotype, with that merely serving as an introduction, a starting point. The clay that hasn't been molded completely. Jonas is Boone Clemens, frat brother to the narcissistic Chad who realizes he's gay. When Boone wants to lay in bed with Chad both speak on a different time when a sexual attempt was made. When Chanel barges in to apologise for breaking up with Chad, she sees the two of them, but Chad downplays it because he is so completely full of himself, he calls her out as homophobic and that he can't help he's so attractive both ladies and guys want a "piece of Chad". Yes, he talks of his self in the third person. Later Boone confronts Chanel about coming out official and joining the Kappas. He's shown flexing his muscles while weight lifting. He seems quite aware of his looks, as if a Chad for the guys. Then he's greeted by someone sinister...we're led to believe. He's found by his bros with a slit throat and they shriek like scream queens themselves!

The final scene is a wink and nod to the twist of the slasher genre. It tells you that don't always trust what you see because looks can be deceiving. Jonas, who up to that point had been a douchey prick hitting golf balls with Chad at collegiates active for charities on campus, and indicated he was part of something potentially more. As if he was "dancing with the Devil".
