After 10 years, during Irene Donnely's older days, her character had changed a little bit. For instance, Irene Donnely had become more vulgar and had started using more profanities. This was shown after she had finished making love to Frank.

While Irene Donnely was making love to Frank, Frank had been secretly recording the whole act without Irene Donnely knowing. When they had finished, Frank quickly tried to keep his camera without Irene Donnely noticing. However, Irene Donnely realized the camera when Frank was about to keep the camera.

Frank then tried to calm Irene Donnely down. Frank also offered to pay Irene Donnely some money, so that he could keep the footage of Irene Donnely in her birthday suit. This however, was not successful. Instead, it made Irene Donnely even angrier.

Frank ignored whatever comments Irene Donnely had to say and threw Irene Donnely some money. Frank then attempted to leave the motel with the footage of Irene Donnely naked as a jaybird.

Furious of being filmed without her consent, Irene Donnely grabbed a gun from her bag and chased after Frank to prevent Frank from leaving with the footage of her in her birthday suit.

Irene Donnely was so mad at Frank for filming her naked and treating her like a hooker. So mad, it escalated to a point where she became rash enough to walk naked outside her motel room. Irene Donnely did not care about her private parts being uncovered in public.

Irene Pointing Gun

When Irene Donnely had finally caught up with Frank, she pointed her gun at Frank and threatened to shoot and murder him with it. Irene Donnely then furiously demanded that Frank hand over the footage of her in all her naked glory to her immediately, otherwise she would not hesitate to open fire and kill him on the spot.

However, Frank was not at all intimidated by any of Irene Donnely's threats, not even a little intimidated. Frank then calmly told Irene Donnely that he did not want her anymore. He also mentioned that he knew the gun was not loaded. Irene Donnely, frustrated that her plan to get the footage of her in her birthday suit back from Frank had failed miserably, reacted by throwing her gun right at Frank's face.

Irene Shocked

When Frank was about to get into his truck to leave the motel, something terrible happened. The moment Frank open the door to the driver's seat of his truck, Frank was murdered.

Frank's murderer then stepped out of Frank's vehicle and revealed himself to Irene Donnely. Irene Donnely was shocked and terrified to discover that Frank had just been murdered by the same pick axe killer she encountered 10 years ago.

To Irene Donnely, the good news was that she no longer had to worry about other people viewing Frank's footage of her naked. However, the bad news outweighed the good news because the bad news was that she was completely naked and helpless and had to find a way to escape from the pick axe killer, as the pick axe killer will not hesitate at all to kill her.

Irene Trying to Hide

Irene Looking for a Place to Hide

Terrified of being murdered by the pick axe killer, Irene Donnely ran as fast as she could to get away from the pick axe killer. Irene Donnely ran back into her motel.

When she got back into the motel, Irene Donnely found herself trapped in the motel as there was not a lot of space in the motel. Irene Donnely then looked everywhere in the motel for places to hide.

Irene Donnely's first instinct was to hide in a closet. However, when she opened the closet, she saw that the closet was full and there was no room for her to fit in the closet.

Irene Hiding

Irene Hiding under a Bed

Without much of a choice, Irene Donnely's only option was to hide under the bed. Quickly, Irene Donnely crawled and got under the bed to hide herself from the pick axe killer.

Irene Donnely kept very quiet and prayed that the pick axe killer would not find her. Unfortunately for Irene Donnely, the pick axe killer found her almost immediately. The pick axe killer grabbed Irene Donnely by her leg and tried to pull her out.

Unable to pull Irene Donnely out from under the bed, the pick axe killer grabbed the mattress and removed it from the bed frame, revealing Irene Donnely lying underneath the bed frame.

The pick axe killer then went to pick up his pick axe, so that he could deliver a killing blow on Irene Donnely. Irene Donnely quickly seized that moment and got up on her two feet. Irene Donnely then proceeded to use the bed frame to shield herself from the pick axe killer's blows.

With no where to run or hide, Irene Donnely had no choice but to fight off the pick axe killer. Terrified, Irene Donnely was seen yelling a lot of profanities at the killer.

With the bed frame as her shield to the pick axe killer's attacks, Irene Donnely was able to block a few killing blows from the pick axe killer. But in the end, Irene Donnely was unable to protect herself from the pick axe killer. Axel Palmer later had intercourse with his new girlfriend Megan over a bunch of times!
