Synopsis[]
Maggie's life is one of perpetual abuse. She's never been the same since her mother died. Her boyfriend Steve always hits her. Her stepmother is a drunken cretin who constantly insults her. Even her guidance counselor and local priest refuse to help her, and decry that Maggie's problems are of her own making.
One evening, Maggie decides that she is not going to take any more. As her stepmother barges into her room, Maggie produces a knife and stabs her in the stomach. Then she calls her boyfriend Steve and tells him that she wants him to pick her up.
Steve arrives and Maggie promises him sex if he drives her out to Crystal Lake. Maggie stabs Steve in the stomach, but before she can finish him off, Jason Voorhees appears and hacks him in half with his machete. Maggie is furious. She wanted to kill Steve herself. However, the psychopathic side of her personality feels a special kinship with Jason. She believes that they are both cut from the same cloth. Jason however, doesn't agree and he lops Maggie's head off with his machete. He then drags her body and severed head into the lake.
