Murder 3: The Beginning
Karla and Ada met up after school. Ada tried to convince Karla to come to the party she was planning. After mentioning Brad would be there, Karla reluctantly agreed to come.

The following day Karla came home to find Kalina Burley waiting for her dad, Will. They got into an argument, ending with Karla calling Kalina a slut when she gloated about having Will wrapped around her finger. When Will arrived, Kalina played the victim and he told Karla to grow up and stop being mean to Kalina because he loved her. Karla stormed off to her room, upset that Will didn't believe that Kalina was just using him.

Meeting up at the club with her friends, the group snuck in and began to party. Karla and Brad flirted before making out. Soon, Ellis was killed and their party was broken up.

After being questioned by police, Ada's mother, Savannah, asked Will if he would watch over Ada while she worked. Karla, Ada, Will, and Brad (who's parents were both missing) returned to the Tate home. As they talked about memories of Ellis, Karla decided they should sneak out to get some food to try and keep their minds occupied.

At the diner, Karla received a text from Will telling them to return home immediately (although this was actually from the killer, Brad's father Arthur.) Karla realized she'd left her phone behind and was locked inside the diner immediately after going back for it. After receiving a photo of Will's dead body, Karla began to panic and begged her friends to get her out. Arthur appeared, taunting Karla and cornering her. She tried to fight back, throwing plates and silverware at him. When she discovered a gun and two bullets under the counter, Karla first attempted to shoot Arthur. When she missed the first shot, Karla saw no other way out and turned the gun on herself.
