Background
Gerladine "Geri" Sanders is an antiques dealer in Fly Creek, Georgia. Her mother is Naomi[ and her sister is Alma.
During the events of Squirm (1976) played by Patricia Pearcy
Roger, who is doing yard work, looks up at Geri as she changes in her room. Naomi tells Geri, the fridge isn't running. Naomi asks Geri questions about Mick who is coming down to visit Geri. Alma comes downstairs and changes the radio from the news about the storm to music. Roger walks in and Geri asks him if she can borrow his truck and Alma loudly asks Naomi where Mick is going to sleep. Roger agrees to let Geri borrow his truck, but tells her to be careful as he has a full load of worms in crates in the back. Mick makes his way through the woods and as he does, he falls into a deep puddle. Geri sees him and they take Roger's truck into town. While Geri goes to get ice, Mick walks into a cafe. Geri drives them back to her house. She introduces Mick to Naomi and Alma and after Mick puts the ice in the fridge, they quickly leave to go to Mr. Beardsley's antique shop. They pass by Roger and Willie Grimes arguing on their way to Naomi's car. As they are driving away, Roger runs up to them and tells them all of the worm crates are empty. She tells Mick that the worms they get in town are bloodworms and sandworms and they bite. They arrive at Mr. Beardsley's, but find no one home. While looking around, Geri finds a skeleton in the dirt and Mick and Geri go to get the Sheriff. Geri and Mick tell the Sheriff about the skeleton they found. They show the Sheriff where the skeleton was, but it is gone and the Sheriff accuses Mick of playing a joke on him and tells him to leave Fly Creek.
Alma goes to Quigley's along with Geri and Mick. While Alma drinks with Lizzie, Hank, Danny and Bonnie, Mick asks Quigley if he has seen Aaron Beardsley, but Quigley tells him he hasn't since the storm. Quigley then tries to sell Mick some antiques. Mick walks up to Roger and invites him to go fishing with him and Geri. Mick tells Geri about the worm he found in his egg cream drink and wonders if it came from Roger's truck. Mick and Geri go to Roger's truck and find a skeleton inside. They see Willie walking up and hide. They go fishing with Roger and Roger tells them he hates worms and thinks they are disgusting. While he is trying to bait his hook, Mick is bitten by a worm and Roger tells them Willie used electricity to attract worms, but they were vicious and bit the tip of Roger's thumb off. Roger drops off Mick so he can bandage his wound and then he and Geri continue fishing. Roger offers to help Geri with her business and then forcefully kisses her. She pushes him away and he falls down onto some Mutant Electric Worms, which burrow into his skin. Roger and Geri fall into the water and Roger starts screaming and runs away. Geri tells Mick about Roger being attacked and Mick and Alma tells her the skull belonged to Mr. Beardsley. Geri and Mick drive to the worm farm and Mick goes to look for Roger. Mick finds Willie dead and when he opens his shirt, Willie's chest is full of Mutant Electric Worms. Mick runs back to the car and he tells her what he saw. They go into town and when they don't find the Sheriff, they ask Mrs. Klopp where he is at. They go to the restaurant where the Sheriff is having dinner with Sheriff's Girl. They tell him about the skull and that they found Willie dead and about Roger. The Sheriff doesn't believe them and threatens Mick. They go back to Mr. Beardsley's and Mick decides Roger is the one who took the skeleton and the Mutant Electric Worms killed Mr. Beardsley. During dinner, Naomi dresses up in anticipation for Roger coming for dinner. A tree crashes into the house and Mick shows Geri, the root pit is filled with Mutant Electric Worms. Mick figures out the electricity from the downed power lines are creating the Mutant Electric Worms and they won't go out in the sun. He goes to the rice mill to look for plywood while Geri and Alma stay to clean up.
Roger breaks into her house and grabs Geri. When he goes towards the attic, Mick is attacked by Roger. He manages to throw Roger into a giant pile of Mutant Electric Worms and the Worms start to consume Roger. Mick goes back to the attic and he and Geri climb out a window. Roger crawls his way up the stairs and bites Mick in the leg until Mick beats him to death. Geri and Mick fall asleep in a tree and are woken up the next morning by a Power Line Repairman who tells them the power is back on. Alma climbs out a trunk and calls out to Mick and Geri and they run to help her.
