Human Death[]
Patriot being bitten by Shelley
During class while tugging at Shelley's pigtail, he accidentally rips it off, causing Shelley to go rabid and biting off part of his right cheek. The teacher, Clint Hadson, tries to help the both of them, but gets scratched on the arm by Shelley and she flees. Clint later takes Patriot to the school nurse, Rhonda, who tells her that Patriot needs to be taken to a hospital to get his face stitched up.
After Patriot becomes infected, he kills Rhonda and escapes to the principal's office where he slashes Mrs. Gordon's throat and tears out the wires, making it impossible to call the police. He then travels to the teacher's lounge, where he attacks a group of staff members with crazy eyes, killing one of them, "the unnamed teacher",( aka Mrs. Birk), by shoving her in a cabinet and mauling her to death once inside.
After killing the unnamed teacher (aka Mrs. Birk), by shoving her in a cabinet and mauling her to death, Patriot exits the cabinet and proceeds to open the school doors, letting in all the other cootie kids, and then smashes a ringing phone. He then turns off the power causing the lights to go out, and goes into the cafeteria after one of the cootie kids screamed after spotting Clint and Lucy, a teacher, getting a candy bar for Calvin, and follows them into the vents, but Clint and Lucy manage to escape in time.
