History Recap / CreepshowS1E9TheManInTheSuitcase

* BookEnds: The story begins and ends at the airport.
* TheCameo: Big Boi of Music/OutKast plays the pawnbroker who gives Justin money for the first coin he receives. He also provides a song for one of the montage scenes.

* ColdBloodedTorture: Justin, Alex, and Carla put the man through absolute agony to get him to produce a fortune of gold coins. Among other things, they put his fingers in a mousetrap, rip out his teeth, and electrocute him with a car battery.
* EveryoneLives: The first episode of the series to have all the main characters live, albeit with severe injuries.

** On his drive back to the house, Justin gets a text from Carla telling him that she's coming by tomorrow to pick up her stuff. She does indeed come by the house the next day, when she discovers the man in the suitcase and his gold producing abilities.
* GoldDigger: Carla becomes one of these when the gold starts piling up. She begins fooling around with both Justin and Alex behind each other's backs, apparently [[ItsAllAboutMe not giving a damn about either one of their feelings so much as they keep the money rolling in.]]
* HateSink: Alex. From his very first appearance, all he's concerned about is money. He has no problems torturing the man in the suitcase to get more, and when Justin informs him that there's a time when people need to ask themselves what they want to be, he says right to Justin's face that he wants to be rich, not caring about how what he's doing is wrong.

* KickTheDog: Or rather, "kick the suitcase", since that's exactly what Alex does to the Djinn. Down the stairs, no less. [[ColdBloodedTorture It only ramps up from there.]]

* NiceGuy: While he's trapped in the suitcase, the Djinn presents himself as a courteous and affable individual, even as he's being tortured. That quickly vanishes when Justin is injured.

* OurGeniesAreDifferent: The Djinn isn't the kind that grants wishes to whoever finds him, but rather one who preys on people willing to torture him for the sake of greed so that he can bestow the same kind of punishment upon them.
* SecretTestOfCharacter: The Djinn is revealed to have been giving one of these to Justin, Alex, and Carla. Justin, who wanted to try and help him out of the suitcase, is spared, and even given a note indicating that the Djinn will be willing to help anytime he needs. Alex and Carla, who mercilessly tortured him for gold, end up failing and are locked into suitcases of their own.

* TheStoner: Justin is a stoner in every sense of the word. He has no cares, no goals, and no drive to do anything in life other than lounge around, watch TV, snack on fast food, and get high. This total lack of ambition is what causes Carla to break up with him.

* TwoTimingWithTheBestie: After finding out about the titular man's [[ItMakesSenseInContext ability to uncontrollably produce gold while in pain]], Justin's ex-girlfriend quickly [[GoldDigger comes back to him]]. And she just as quickly begins sleeping with his roommate behind his back.

Justin (Will Kidrachuck) is a college student who has just returned from a trip back home to ask his dad for money, which didn't go well. At the airport, he grabs a mysterious black suitcase that he believes to be his luggage, then heads back to his dorm house to unwind. After spending a good amount of time watching porn, snacking on leftovers, and getting high, Justin begins to hear muffled sounds from his suitcase. When he opens the suitcase to investigate what the trouble might be, he finds something particularly strange inside it: a Middle-Eastern man (Ravi Naidu) who has been painfully and impossibly contorted compressed inside. The man tells the scared Justin that he ended up this way after "offending someone [he] ought not have offended". He also refuses Justin's attempts to get him to a hospital, claiming that not only can no Western hospital help him, but the people who did this to him will find him. While trying to help the man with his predicament, Justin watches him fire a gold coin out of his mouth. The man explains that the gold coins are a reaction to pain; a side effect of an "unfortunate condition". That night, Justin falls asleep, and has a nightmare where he himself is trapped in a suitcase before being shot dead by a trio of men in black.

Justin (Will Kidrachuck) is a college student returning from a trip back home to ask his dad for money, which didn't go well. At the airport, he grabs what he believes to be his luggage, then heads back to his shared house to unwind. After a while, he begins to hear muffled sounds coming from his suitcase. When he opens the suitcase, he finds something particularly strange inside: a man (Ravi Naidu) who has been painfully contorted and folded up inside. The man explains that he ended up this way after "offending someone [he] ought not have offended". He refuses Justin's attempts to get him to a hospital, claiming that not only can no Western hospital help him, but the people who did this to him will find him. When trying to help the man with his predicament, Justin watches the man fire a gold coin out of his mouth. The man explains that the expulsion of gold is a reaction to pain; a side effect of an "unfortunate condition". That night, Justin falls asleep and has a nightmare that he himself is trapped in a suitcase and shot dead by a trio of men in black.

The next day, Justin takes the coin to a pawnbroker, who recognizes it as a historical antique. Justin also notifies his roommate Alex (Ian Gregg) of the discovery, who chastises him for not negotiating with the pawnbroker for a higher price. Returning to the house, Justin's ex-girlfriend Carla (Madison Bailey) nervously confronts Justin for supposedly being a murderer, having seen the man's hand peering out of the suitcase while getting her stuff. When Justin answers her concerns by showing them the man, they are initially confused and frightened, but they soon become captivated the man's gold producing abilities, especially since he produces more gold with the more pain he is put through. They persuade Justin to agree into holding onto him for 48 hours before letting him go.

With that, the trio proceed to mercilessly torture the man to produce a treasure trove of coins, which they exchange for money to spend on various luxuries. When Justin finally has enough of the torment, he goes to call the police, but Carla smashes his phone with a monkey wrench and nearly bludgeons him to death with it, watching as he falls down the stairs and is rendered unconscious. As Carla and Alex prepare to hit one last jackpot before they flee somewhere, the man cryptically chastises them for being so wicked. In a blast of purple smoke, the man reveals himself to be a monstrous Djinn. As punishment for their greed, the Djinn presents Alex and Carla with a pair of matching suitcases. Justin, meanwhile, survives his injuries and is currently recovering in a hospital. He glances at a note, apparently written by the Djinn, who thanks him for his attempts to help and promises his assistance whenever Justin might need it.

Back at the airport, the Djinn, who has returned to human form and is also revealed to be a loyal customer of the airline, is seen boarding a flight to Istanbul as he has his bags checked. Alex and Carla, trapped inside the bags, scream to be let out as they are loaded onto the conveyor belt.

* ExtremeDoormat: Alex notes that Justin has a tendency to let others walk all over him, including Carla. Ironically, when Justin ''does'' put his foot down on upholding their end of the deal, Carla tried murdering him for it.

* HateSink: Alex. From his very first appearance, all he's concerned about is money. He has no problems torturing the man in the suitcase to get more, and when Justin informs him that there's a time when people need to ask themselves what they want to be, he says right to Justin's face that he wants to be rich, not caring about how murdering for money is wrong.

* JerkAss: Carla didn't initially seem too unlikable during her first appearances, merely being (realistically) concerned with Justin's lack of motivation to plan their future together. After meeting the man in the suitcase and seeing him produce gold, she quickly degrades into a GoldDigger who sleeps with both Alex and Justin behind each other's backs. It doesn't help that she gets so money-drunk that she nearly bludgeons her ex-boyfriend to death with a monkey wrench.

* OurGeniesAreDifferent: The Djinn isn't the kind that grants wishes to whoever finds him, but rather one who preys on people willing to torture him for the sake of greed so that he can bestow the same kind of punishment on them.

* SevenMinuteLull: When hearing about how the man can't be helped out of his dilemma by a Western hospital, Justin tells him that said hospitals can do anything, and in the process, gets sidetracked by delivering a long-winded story about a kid who was hit by a car and had his legs replaced with pogo sticks, and about how he used them to become good at basketball.

** A couple issues of ''Splatter Comix'' are glimpsed in a dumpster.

* TheStoner: Justin. He has no cares, no goals, and no drive to do anything in life other than lounge around, snack on fast food, and get high. This total lack of ambition is what causes Carla to break up with him.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Between the trio, Justin is the most pure-hearted. Even when given an endless supply of gold coins, he uses the money for mundane things like paying his rent.
* TwoTimingWithTheBestie: After finding out about the titular man's [[ItMakesSenseInContext ability to uncontrollably produce gold while in pain]], Justin's ex-girlfriend quickly [[GoldDigger comes back to him]], and just as quickly begins sleeping with his roommate behind his back.

Justin (Will Kidrachuck) is a college kid returning from a trip. At the airport, he grabs what he believes to be his luggage, then heads back to his dorm house to unwind. After a while, he begins to hear muffled sounds coming from his suitcase.
