The stakes for everyone on the hit MTV series "Scream" have just been taken to a new height with the cliffhanger from the last episode. The next episode is titled "In the Trenches" and will air on MTV next Tuesday, Aug. 11 at 9 p.m. EDT, according to TV Guide.

What has become very apparent from the series so far is that each episode of this hit show will feature a new angle of terror that befalls Emma (Willa Fitzgerald). According to Spoilers Guide, this time, it will be a race to save the life of Will (Connor Weil), who was last seen be dragged off by the killer into the darkness.

The killer has started a new game of hide and seek with Emma, and she will be on the clock to save Will's life. But if time runs out, so does his life.

In the last episode of "Scream," Will had joined podcaster Piper as they met Maddox at a warehouse and convince him not kill Will. Piper had recorded the exchange between them, secretly, but things turned out okay between the two, according to Entertainment Weekly.

But that is when the killer came out of the shadows and knocked Piper down with a concrete block. He then stabbed Will and Piper could seer the killer dragging him away, into the darkness, before the episode ended.

But that was not the only climatic moment for the show on Tuesday. Of course, fans now know that Audrey has been moved up the list as a suspect. This is due to her DNA being on the Brandon James mask and her obvious motive. Couple that with no alibi and her suspect thread deepens. She also instructed Emma to destroy an SD card. But when Emma watched it, she found her threatening Bella's life.

So now, Emma has to worry about her suspicions of Audrey and also play the game with the killer to save Will's life.
