LOCKED IN

Here is a synopsis of the "Locked In" four-episode arc: "Locked In" plunges into the terrifying reality of OPBH High, where the ordinary lives of teenagers are shattered when a mysterious force transforms their school into a deadly trap. The story begins with a glimpse into the diverse routines of students like Tyrone, Nia, Marcus, and the enigmatic Raven, just before an inexplicable outbreak plunges the school into chaos. What starts as screams and students chasing each other with makeshift weapons escalates rapidly, revealing that some unknown infection is turning their peers into mindless, aggressive beings. As panic spreads, a terrifying truth emerges: Raven, a seemingly normal Form 4 student, is not a victim but the orchestrator of this nightmare, having been corrupted by a strange pendant. Led by Marcus, a small group of uninfected students, including Tyrone and Nia, form "The Pulse," a desperate resistance movement. They establish a makeshift base, strategize escape routes, and gather vital supplies, realizing the infected students are now under Raven's chilling command, acting as her silent, raw-food-eating subjects. The stakes rise as The Pulse discovers CCTV footage revealing Raven's ritualistic interaction with the pendant as the catalyst for the infection. Their investigation leads them to a burnt book, which confirms Raven's transformation into a "Soul Binder"—an entity capable of trapping spirits. Raven, now fully aware of their efforts, confronts them, making it clear she intends for no one to leave except her. The Pulse faces direct attacks from Raven's followers, sustaining injuries but pushing on as they uncover a destructive spell within the ancient book, requiring a sacrifice to break the unseen barrier holding them captive. In a desperate final plan, Tyrone volunteers to lure Raven to the main school gate during a stormy night while The Pulse prepares the ritual. In a heart-pounding climax, Tyrone and Marcus manage to scale the gate and escape to the outside, pleading with Nia, who remains trapped inside, to join them. However, as Raven attempts to exit through the now-open gate, she slams into an invisible barrier, her face contorting in rage as she realizes she is also trapped. The series concludes with Tyrone looking back at Nia, separated by the unseen wall, with a solemn promise: "I'm coming back for you. I promise." The true horror is revealed: they are all "Locked In."
