1. I'm sorry,
I did not quite catch your name.Copy !req
2. What happened?Copy !req
3. Help me.Copy !req
4. No!Copy !req
5. Which one?Copy !req
6. I don't know.Copy !req
7. Hey, there's nothing to worry about
anymore, okay?Copy !req
8. It doesn't make sense.Copy !req
9. What doesn't make sense?Copy !req
10. Heather.Copy !req
11. The blood.Copy !req
12. The ice.Copy !req
13. Heather had a fever, so she took
a cold bath, but she's better now.Copy !req
14. That has to be it.Copy !req
15. I don't know where that blood
came from, but...Copy !req
16. we saw her.Copy !req
17. We both saw her. She's totally fine.Copy !req
18. What about Billy?Copy !req
19. What about him?Copy !req
20. He seemed wrong.Copy !req
21. Wrong is kind of like
his default.Copy !req
22. But it's nice to know he's not a murderer,
because that would've totally sucked.Copy !req
23. Who... is that?Copy !req
24. See, this is why you can't just
hang out with Mike all the time.Copy !req
25. This is Wonder Woman.Copy !req
26. AKA Princess Diana.Copy !req
27. She's from Paradise Island,
which is, like, this hidden islandCopy !req
28. where there are only
women Amazon warriors.Copy !req
29. Let me go! Let me go!Copy !req
30. Doris, we need you to stay calm for us,
okay?Copy !req
31. - Stay calm.
- I have to go back!Copy !req
32. I have to go back!Copy !req
33. I have to go back!Copy !req
34. I have to go back!Copy !req
35. Okay, so,Copy !req
36. you two want to explain to me
what in the name of JesusCopy !req
37. just happened here?Copy !req
38. Tom!Copy !req
39. Hi, Daddy.Copy !req
40. Heather...Copy !req
41. sweetie...Copy !req
42. whatever this is,
whatever he's got you into,Copy !req
43. you don't have to do this.Copy !req
44. You can stop this.Copy !req
45. There is no stopping it, Daddy.Copy !req
46. You'll see.Copy !req
47. No.Copy !req
48. Heather, please! Heather!Copy !req
49. Try not to move.Copy !req
50. No.Copy !req
51. No.Copy !req
52. Heather!Copy !req
53. Heather!Copy !req
54. Jesus Christ.Copy !req
55. No.Copy !req
56. No—Copy !req
57. Hey, careful.Copy !req
58. - Careful.Copy !req
59. Here.Copy !req
60. Hey.Copy !req
61. Joyce.Copy !req
62. Oh.Copy !req
63. Here, here, here.Copy !req
64. It's okay.Copy !req
65. That's it. Got it?Copy !req
66. - Here.
- How long have I been out?Copy !req
67. A while.Copy !req
68. You've been drifting in and out.Copy !req
69. Yeah, but how did I get here?Copy !req
70. Slowly.Copy !req
71. - What's the last thing you remember?
- Some thug attacked me.Copy !req
72. - Hey, you need to rest.
- No, I'm fine.Copy !req
73. - No, you're not fine, Hop—
- I'm fine. I'm fine.Copy !req
74. Um...Copy !req
75. - Where are my clothes?
- Uh...Copy !req
76. Uh...Copy !req
77. They were soaked.Copy !req
78. I mean, did you recognize him?Copy !req
79. - Who?
- The thug.Copy !req
80. Well, I didn't get a good look.Copy !req
81. Well, I mean,
he's gotta be government, right?Copy !req
82. Yeah, but if he's government,
what's he doing slinking around?Copy !req
83. W-Why is he running?Copy !req
84. You know,
why didn't we find anything down there?Copy !req
85. Let's ask him.Copy !req
86. What is that?Copy !req
87. His license plate.Copy !req
88. - What are the dashes?
- Well, they're blanks.Copy !req
89. There was...
I think it was either an H or a PCopy !req
90. with the part rubbed off.Copy !req
91. And there was definitely a Y.Copy !req
92. For sure.Copy !req
93. And that, I think, was a B,
but it could've been an eight.Copy !req
94. And that— Wait—Copy !req
95. I think you should stick to sales.Copy !req
96. Can't you run a search or something?Copy !req
97. I just think you have to lower
your expectations.Copy !req
98. I mean, this is a state government agency.Copy !req
99. Gonna take weeks
before they find a match.Copy !req
100. - Weeks?
- If we're lucky.Copy !req
101. And, I mean,Copy !req
102. what are the odds that this guyCopy !req
103. registers a car in his own name?Copy !req
104. It wasn't a car.Copy !req
105. Uh, what are you wearing?Copy !req
106. What do you mean it wasn't a car?Copy !req
107. Do you copy?Copy !req
108. This is a code red.Copy !req
109. I repeat, this is a code red.Copy !req
110. Max. Do you copy?Copy !req
111. - This is a code red.Copy !req
112. Shut...Copy !req
113. up.Copy !req
114. She turned it off.Copy !req
115. You've got to be kidding me.Copy !req
116. I'm sleeping. Go away.Copy !req
117. This is Mike. Do not hang up.Copy !req
118. Something happened, something bad.Copy !req
119. Our very lives can be at stake.Copy !req
120. - What are you talking about?
- Just come over to my house.Copy !req
121. We'll explain everything.Copy !req
122. - What?
- Hurry.Copy !req
123. What did he say?Copy !req
124. Try Dustin again.Copy !req
125. He's not answering.Copy !req
126. So, try him again.Copy !req
127. Dustin, do you copy?Copy !req
128. I repeat, this is a code red.Copy !req
129. That keycard opens the door,
but unfortunately,Copy !req
130. the Russian with this keycard
also has a massive gun.Copy !req
131. Whatever's in this room,
whatever's in those boxes,Copy !req
132. they really don't want anybody finding it.Copy !req
133. But there's gotta be a way in.Copy !req
134. Well, you know...Copy !req
135. I could just take him out.Copy !req
136. - Take who out?
- The Russian guard.Copy !req
137. What? I sneak up behind him,Copy !req
138. I knock him out, and I take his keycard.
It's easy.Copy !req
139. Did you not hear the part
about the massive gun?Copy !req
140. Yes, Dustin, I did.Copy !req
141. And that's why I would be sneaking.Copy !req
142. Ah.Copy !req
143. Well, please, tell me this,
and be honest,Copy !req
144. have you ever actually... won a fight?Copy !req
145. Okay, that was one time—Copy !req
146. Twice. Jonathan. Year prior?Copy !req
147. Listen, that doesn't count.Copy !req
148. Why wouldn't it? Because it looks
like he beat the shit out of you.Copy !req
149. - It was...
- You got a fat lip, crooked nose,Copy !req
150. - swollen eye, a lot of blood...
- ... things that all added up...Copy !req
151. That just might work.Copy !req
152. Robin.Copy !req
153. Hey, Robin!
Hey, what— what are you doing?Copy !req
154. - I need cash.
- Well, half of that's mine.Copy !req
155. - Where're you going?
- To find a way into that room,Copy !req
156. a safe way.Copy !req
157. And, in the meantime,
sling ice cream,Copy !req
158. behave, and don't get beat up.Copy !req
159. I'll be back in a jiff.Copy !req
160. Oh, dude.Copy !req
161. Come on, man, not my scooper.Copy !req
162. If he gets us
the layout by noon, we can.Copy !req
163. Okay, I'll let him know.Copy !req
164. Dunno if they'll go through with it,
but I just thought you should know.Copy !req
165. Nancy.Copy !req
166. Jonathan.Copy !req
167. I've worked at this paper
for twenty-five years.Copy !req
168. Twenty-five...Copy !req
169. years.Copy !req
170. Now, we're a small-town paper,Copy !req
171. but we have something
the big papers don't have:Copy !req
172. trust.Copy !req
173. - The trust of our community.
- Tom, if you just—Copy !req
174. Do you know how I built that trust?
By placing my faith in somethingCopy !req
175. the two of you don't seem to value
a whole lot:Copy !req
176. facts.Copy !req
177. Facts.Copy !req
178. So, while we're here,
let's go over the facts.Copy !req
179. Fact one: you disobeyed a direct order
to stop pursuing this story.Copy !req
180. you falsely identified yourselves
as reporters,Copy !req
181. repeatedly lying to an elderly woman.Copy !req
182. you broke into her home,
committing trespass.Copy !req
183. she almost died en route
to the hospital.Copy !req
184. She would've died if we hadn't shown up!Copy !req
185. Whatever disease that rat had
clearly passed to her—Copy !req
186. Five!
Mrs. Driscoll is a paranoid schizophrenic.Copy !req
187. You didn't know that, did you?Copy !req
188. Now...Copy !req
189. disease-carrying rats?Copy !req
190. The second coming of the plague?
Does this sound credible to you,Copy !req
191. or perhaps does this sound more like
the delusions of a very sick old lady?Copy !req
192. - I didn't know that.
- Her family's furious.Copy !req
193. So furious, in fact,
they've threatened litigation.Copy !req
194. - Litigation?
- That's crazy.Copy !req
195. For once, we agree.Copy !req
196. This is crazy.Copy !req
197. In fact, in my entire professional career,Copy !req
198. I've never dealt with anything
quite like it.Copy !req
199. But hopefully,Copy !req
200. hopefully, you've learned
something valuable here.Copy !req
201. You've learned...Copy !req
202. how in the workplace,Copy !req
203. in the real world,Copy !req
204. there are consequences to your actions.Copy !req
205. Which brings me to my sixth and final...Copy !req
206. fact.Copy !req
207. You're fired.Copy !req
208. Both of you.Copy !req
209. I didn't think it was anything
at first.Copy !req
210. I mean, I think I just didn't want
to believe it.Copy !req
211. The first time I felt it
was at Day of the Dead.Copy !req
212. - Power went out that night, too.
- And then I felt it againCopy !req
213. at the field near the Nelson farm
the next day.Copy !req
214. Then again yesterday outside Castle Byers.Copy !req
215. Will!Copy !req
216. What does it feel like?Copy !req
217. It's almost like...Copy !req
218. You know when you drop
on a roller coaster?Copy !req
219. - Sure.
- Yeah.Copy !req
220. - No.
- It's like...Copy !req
221. everything inside your bodyCopy !req
222. is just sinking all at once, but...Copy !req
223. this is worse.Copy !req
224. Your body...Copy !req
225. it goes cold and— and you can't breathe.Copy !req
226. I've felt it before,Copy !req
227. whenever he was close.Copy !req
228. Whenever who was close?Copy !req
229. The Mind Flayer.Copy !req
230. Go away!Copy !req
231. Go away!Copy !req
232. I closed the gate.Copy !req
233. I know, but...Copy !req
234. what if he never left?Copy !req
235. What if we locked him out here with us?Copy !req
236. This is him.Copy !req
237. All of him.Copy !req
238. But, that day on the field,Copy !req
239. a part of him attached itself to me.Copy !req
240. My mom got it out of me...Copy !req
241. Get the hell out of my son!Copy !req
242. and Eleven closed the gate.Copy !req
243. But the part that was still in me,
what if it's still in our world?Copy !req
244. In Hawkins.Copy !req
245. I don't understand.
The Demodogs died when El closed the gate.Copy !req
246. If the brain dies, the body dies.Copy !req
247. We can't take any chances.Copy !req
248. We need to assume the worst.Copy !req
249. The Mind Flayer's back.Copy !req
250. Yeah. And if he is,Copy !req
251. he'd want to attach himself
to someone again.Copy !req
252. A new me.Copy !req
253. A new host.Copy !req
254. How can you tell if someone is a host?Copy !req
255. Hey, is he in?Copy !req
256. - Yes, he's busy at the moment, but—
- Great.Copy !req
257. Excuse me.Copy !req
258. You should sit down.Copy !req
259. wouldn't listen—Copy !req
260. Uh...Copy !req
261. Tony, hold on.Copy !req
262. Let me, uh...Copy !req
263. I might have to—
Let me call you back. Okay.Copy !req
264. Thanks.Copy !req
265. - Jim.
- I know, I know.Copy !req
266. You're busy.
I'm gonna make this fast, I promise.Copy !req
267. Is there...Copy !req
268. some kind of problem?Copy !req
269. Yeah. You might say that.Copy !req
270. Um, I'm looking for the name of a guy.Copy !req
271. The name of a guy.Copy !req
272. Yeah, I think you might know this guy.Copy !req
273. - Okay.
- He was here the other day.Copy !req
274. Rides a motorcycle.Copy !req
275. Big build, square jaw, dark hair.Copy !req
276. He's probably military, maybe ex-military?Copy !req
277. Is this ringing... any bells?Copy !req
278. Uh...Copy !req
279. I don't think so.Copy !req
280. Really?Copy !req
281. 'Cause it was just two days ago.Copy !req
282. This was right before I saw you.Copy !req
283. Oh!Copy !req
284. - You know what?
- What?Copy !req
285. Could be the maintenance guy.Copy !req
286. - Maintenance.
- Yeah. I can't remember his name.Copy !req
287. Oh, God... Uh...Copy !req
288. Gary or John or something.Copy !req
289. Candice will have his name on file.Copy !req
290. We've had trouble with the plumbing.
Clogged toilets and...Copy !req
291. sinks with minds of their own.Copy !req
292. You meeting with a lot of plumbers, Larry?Copy !req
293. Excuse me?Copy !req
294. This guy, when I saw him,
he was coming out of your office.Copy !req
295. Okay, well, I don't remember that.Copy !req
296. I shake a lot of hands, you know?Copy !req
297. Do you remember when I caught you
passed out in the hideawayCopy !req
298. with all that powder all over your nose?Copy !req
299. - You remember?
- Jim, come on, now.Copy !req
300. Do you remember when my boys
found you and Candice going at itCopy !req
301. like a couple of bunnies
in the back of your Cadillac?Copy !req
302. Do you remember that?Copy !req
303. Does your wife remember that?Copy !req
304. You, uh...Copy !req
305. You really wanna play this game?Copy !req
306. Huh?Copy !req
307. Not a game, Lar.Copy !req
308. Okay.Copy !req
309. Those pills you used to swallow
like candy.Copy !req
310. I can't recall,
did you have a prescription for those?Copy !req
311. Or how about drinking on duty?Copy !req
312. Yeah.Copy !req
313. We have some real fun stories about that.Copy !req
314. One call to Tom at the Post...Copy !req
315. and you're done, buddy.Copy !req
316. You're gone.Copy !req
317. Oh, and, please,Copy !req
318. don't give me that dead daughter
sob story,Copy !req
319. 'cause I just don't care.Copy !req
320. Now, if you don't mind,Copy !req
321. I really am rather busy.Copy !req
322. Operating directors—Copy !req
323. Damn it!Copy !req
324. My nose! You broke my goddamn nose!Copy !req
325. And your friend almost killed me
last night,Copy !req
326. so I'd say we're still not even.Copy !req
327. Larry?Copy !req
328. - Let's cut the crap, Larry!
- Larry!Copy !req
329. - Who is this guy? Government? Military?
- You're making a big mistake.Copy !req
330. Who is he?Copy !req
331. It's Arnold Schwarzenegger.Copy !req
332. - Larry!Copy !req
333. Who you calling? The police?Copy !req
334. That is a nice ring you got there, Larry.Copy !req
335. Are you insane?Copy !req
336. I don't know.Copy !req
337. Let's find out.Copy !req
338. Okay, okay, okay.
Be cool, be cool.Copy !req
339. I don't know his name, I swear.Copy !req
340. - Ah, ah, ah!Copy !req
341. But you know him.Copy !req
342. He... He gives me things sometimes.Copy !req
343. What kind of things?Copy !req
344. Money. Presents. Aah! Gifts.Copy !req
345. Who is this guy, Santa Claus?Copy !req
346. Starcourt. Starcourt.
He works for Starcourt.Copy !req
347. - The mall?
- Yes, yes.Copy !req
348. Yeah, right.Copy !req
349. Aah! I swear! I swear! I swear! Starcourt.Copy !req
350. They— They own the mall.Copy !req
351. They want to expand to East Hawkins.
They needed property, some land.Copy !req
352. Some people didn't want to sell,
so I leaned on them a little. That's all.Copy !req
353. I swear, that's all.Copy !req
354. - Why do they want this land?
- I don't know!Copy !req
355. You have records of these purchases,
these, uh...Copy !req
356. these land purchases?Copy !req
357. You don't want to mess with these people,
Jim.Copy !req
358. I think you should worry about yourself
right now, Larry, not about me.Copy !req
359. The records.Copy !req
360. Where are they?Copy !req
361. - Larry?Copy !req
362. He just bumped his head.Copy !req
363. - Just a little boo-boo, right, Lar?Copy !req
364. Have a nice day.Copy !req
365. Larry!Copy !req
366. It's bullshit.Copy !req
367. So, according to Tom,
Driscoll's just a schizophrenic?Copy !req
368. And that rat is just a rat?Copy !req
369. And it's all, what, some big coincidence?Copy !req
370. You know what I think?Copy !req
371. I think Tom was on drugs.Copy !req
372. - What?
- Did you see him?Copy !req
373. He was sweating like crazy.Copy !req
374. And his palms were clammy.Copy !req
375. - He looked awful.Copy !req
376. - Oh, is this funny to you?
- No.Copy !req
377. No, it's just kind of incredible.Copy !req
378. Incredible?Copy !req
379. Yeah, incredible how you just continue
to convince yourself.Copy !req
380. What's that supposed to mean?Copy !req
381. I told you over and over
to drop this story.Copy !req
382. - That it was a bad idea.Copy !req
383. But you refused, and now, I'm screwed.Copy !req
384. It's a summer job.
Your life is hardly over.Copy !req
385. I don't live in a two-story house
on Maple Street.Copy !req
386. My dad doesn't earn six figures.Copy !req
387. Hell, he isn't even around.Copy !req
388. God, here comes the Oliver Twist routine.Copy !req
389. Mortgage, college tuition.Copy !req
390. You know, they're real things, Nancy.Copy !req
391. Things that you don't care about,
only because you don't have to.Copy !req
392. - I didn't realize I lived in a bubble!
- Well, you do!Copy !req
393. You want everything handed to you
on a silver platter.Copy !req
394. I mean, we were interns, Nancy!Copy !req
395. Interns!Copy !req
396. What did you expect, that you would make
star reporter in a month?Copy !req
397. Crack the big case?Copy !req
398. You sound just like them.
You realize that, right?Copy !req
399. Just like Bruce and those assholes—Copy !req
400. Yeah, yeah, those assholes gave us jobs.Copy !req
401. Is that what that was?
That was humiliating.Copy !req
402. Humiliating.Copy !req
403. Yeah, the real world sucks.Copy !req
404. Deal with it like the rest of us.Copy !req
405. You don't know what it's like.Copy !req
406. Neither do you.Copy !req
407. Well, then, I guess we just don't
understand each other anymore.Copy !req
408. Yeah, I guess not.Copy !req
409. Hey, you're home early.Copy !req
410. Yeah. Light day.Copy !req
411. It is fascinating
what 20 bucks will get youCopy !req
412. at the County Recorder's Office.Copy !req
413. Starcourt Mall.Copy !req
414. The complete blueprints.Copy !req
415. Not bad.Copy !req
416. So, this is us, Scoops,Copy !req
417. and this is where we want to get.Copy !req
418. I mean, I don't really see a way in.Copy !req
419. There's not,Copy !req
420. if you're talking exclusively about doors.Copy !req
421. Air ducts.Copy !req
422. Exactly.Copy !req
423. Turns out, this secret room needs air
just like any old room.Copy !req
424. And these air ductsCopy !req
425. lead all the way...Copy !req
426. here.Copy !req
427. Flashlight.Copy !req
428. Thank you.Copy !req
429. Yeah, I don't know, man. I don't know
if you can fit in here. It's, like...Copy !req
430. super tight.Copy !req
431. I'll fit.Copy !req
432. Trust me. No collar bones, remember?Copy !req
433. Uh, excuse me?Copy !req
434. Oh, he's, uh...
Yeah, he's got some disease.Copy !req
435. Chry, uh... It's chrydo, um...Copy !req
436. Something. Yeah, I dunno.Copy !req
437. He's missing bones and stuff.
He can bend like Gumbo.Copy !req
438. You mean Gumby.Copy !req
439. I'm pretty sure it's Gumbo.Copy !req
440. - Steve, just shut up and push me!
- Okay.Copy !req
441. I'll push ya.Copy !req
442. - Not my feet, dumb-ass. Push my ass.
- What?Copy !req
443. Touch my butt! I don't care!Copy !req
444. - Come on! Harder! Push harder!
- I'm pushing!Copy !req
445. - You're playing with my legs.
- I'm not playing, I have terrible footing.Copy !req
446. - Come on!
- I'm gonna just shove you, ready?Copy !req
447. - Just shove me?
- One, two...Copy !req
448. - Shit.
- That work?Copy !req
449. - One more time.
- Ahoy, sailors! All hands on deck!Copy !req
450. Ahoy!Copy !req
451. - Come on.Copy !req
452. Get over here
and serve me some samples.Copy !req
453. I don't know.
He looks pretty normal to me.Copy !req
454. Normal? How many times
have you seen him with a shirt on?Copy !req
455. I mean, it's a little weird.Copy !req
456. More than a little.Copy !req
457. He was in a tub with ice.
The Mind Flayer likes it cold.Copy !req
458. - Plus everything else—
- But he's lounging at the pool,Copy !req
459. which is, like,
the least Mind Flayer thing ever.Copy !req
460. Not necessarily.Copy !req
461. The Mind Flayer likes to hide.Copy !req
462. He only used me when he needed me.Copy !req
463. It's like... like you're dormant.Copy !req
464. And then, when he needs you,Copy !req
465. you're activated.Copy !req
466. Okay, so we just...Copy !req
467. wait until he gets activated.Copy !req
468. No. What if he hurts someone?Copy !req
469. Or kills someone.Copy !req
470. We can't take that chance.Copy !req
471. We need to find out if he's the host.Copy !req
472. - Where are you going?
- I have an idea. Boys only.Copy !req
473. - Seriously?
- Just trust me on this one.Copy !req
474. Okay, so we wait until the pool closes,
until everyone leaves,Copy !req
475. and we somehow get him
to come from here and...Copy !req
476. get him into here.Copy !req
477. - Hey, shut the door!
- Hey, come on, kid, shut it!Copy !req
478. I think I just threw up in my mouth.Copy !req
479. And look, the controls are right here.
It's perfect.Copy !req
480. - Will it get hot enough?
- 220 degrees.Copy !req
481. We just have to figure out
how to get him in here.Copy !req
482. - Then we lock him in...
- Heat him up...Copy !req
483. No matter what happens, we'll know.Copy !req
484. We'll know for sure.Copy !req
485. Hmm...Copy !req
486. - Yeah, I don't know.
- You don't know if you can fit?Copy !req
487. Oh, I can fit.
I just don't know if I want to.Copy !req
488. Are you claustrophobic?Copy !req
489. I don't have phobias.Copy !req
490. - Okay, well, what's the problem?
- The problem is,Copy !req
491. I still haven't heard what's in thisCopy !req
492. for Erica.Copy !req
493. More fudge, please.Copy !req
494. Go on.Copy !req
495. All right.Copy !req
496. You see this?
This is the route you're gonna take.Copy !req
497. Then we just wait till the last delivery
goes out tonight.Copy !req
498. Then you knock out the grate,
jump down, open the door.Copy !req
499. - Then you find out what's in those boxes?
- Exactly.Copy !req
500. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
501. And you say this guard is armed.Copy !req
502. Yes, but he won't be there.Copy !req
503. - And booby traps?
- Booby traps?Copy !req
504. - Lasers, spikes in the wall?
- What?Copy !req
505. You know what this half-baked plan
of yours sounds like to me?Copy !req
506. Child endangerment.Copy !req
507. We'll be in radio contact with you
the whole time—Copy !req
508. Ah, ah, ah!Copy !req
509. Child endangerment.Copy !req
510. Erica? Hi. Uh...Copy !req
511. We think these Russians
want to do harm to our country.Copy !req
512. Great harm. Don't you love your country?Copy !req
513. You can't spell "America" without "Erica."Copy !req
514. Uh, yeah, yeah.Copy !req
515. Oddly, that's, uh, totally true.Copy !req
516. So, so, don't do this for us.Copy !req
517. Do it for your country.Copy !req
518. Do it for your fellow man.Copy !req
519. - Do this for America... Erica.Copy !req
520. Ooh!Copy !req
521. I just got the chills.Copy !req
522. Oh, yeah, from this float,Copy !req
523. not your speech.Copy !req
524. Know what I love most about this country?Copy !req
525. Capitalism.Copy !req
526. - Do you know what capitalism is?
- Yeah.Copy !req
527. - Yeah.
- It means this is a free market system.Copy !req
528. Which means people get paid
for their services,Copy !req
529. depending on how valuable
their contributions are.Copy !req
530. And it seems to me,Copy !req
531. my ability to fit into that little ventCopy !req
532. is very, very valuable to you all.Copy !req
533. So, you want my help?Copy !req
534. This USS ButterscotchCopy !req
535. better be the first of many.Copy !req
536. And I'm talking free ice creamCopy !req
537. for life.Copy !req
538. Wow, I love the place, Lar.Copy !req
539. Hey, you shoot that fella yourself?Copy !req
540. That's— That's not real.Copy !req
541. No shit!Copy !req
542. All right, so...Copy !req
543. what exactly are we looking at?Copy !req
544. Land deeds, transfers of property.Copy !req
545. So your buddies at Starcourt,Copy !req
546. they suddenly start buying up
all this property.Copy !req
547. - They tell you why?
- I already told you,Copy !req
548. they don't tell me anything.Copy !req
549. They're just using you, I get it.Copy !req
550. What I don't getCopy !req
551. is why you have a bunch of land deedsCopy !req
552. in a safe in your bedroom.Copy !req
553. These people, Jim,Copy !req
554. they're bad news.Copy !req
555. So, what, this is blackmail?Copy !req
556. - Protection.
- Protection.Copy !req
557. Hold on a second.Copy !req
558. Hey, what is it?Copy !req
559. Hess Farm, Henry's place,Copy !req
560. Bullocks...Copy !req
561. Look, they're all here.Copy !req
562. They're all in Southeast Hawkins,
right near Jordan Lake.Copy !req
563. And what else is near Jordan Lake?Copy !req
564. The power plant.Copy !req
565. Four nights ago,
there was a huge power outage,Copy !req
566. - and the next day—
- Your magnets fell.Copy !req
567. Yeah, I mean, Scott says that this machineCopy !req
568. would take a massive amount of power
to run.Copy !req
569. - Yeah.
- So, what if this machineCopy !req
570. that we've been talking about
really does exist,Copy !req
571. and the reason that we didn't find it
at the labCopy !req
572. is because it isn't at the lab,
it's at one of these properties.Copy !req
573. Um...Copy !req
574. I want you to... forget about sales.Copy !req
575. I want you to come work for me
at the Hawkins PD.Copy !req
576. And have to look at your face every day?
I don't think so.Copy !req
577. Larry!Copy !req
578. Hey!Copy !req
579. Hey, where do you think you're going, pal?Copy !req
580. - Nancy?Copy !req
581. Nance?Copy !req
582. Maybe Jonathan's right.Copy !req
583. To be honest, I wasn't thinking about him.Copy !req
584. I wasn't thinking about anyone, really.Copy !req
585. I just...Copy !req
586. I wanted to be right.Copy !req
587. - I wanted to be right so badly.
- And were you?Copy !req
588. I thought so.Copy !req
589. But maybe I just...Copy !req
590. don't want to admit that I'm wrong,Copy !req
591. - because if I'm wrong, then—
- You're what everyone thinks you are.Copy !req
592. Just a kid who has no idea
what she's doing.Copy !req
593. It's not easy out there, Nance.Copy !req
594. I know.Copy !req
595. People are always saying you can't.Copy !req
596. That you shouldn't.Copy !req
597. That you're not...Copy !req
598. smart enough, not good enough.Copy !req
599. This world, it...Copy !req
600. it beats you up again and again
until eventually, I...Copy !req
601. Most people, they just...Copy !req
602. they just stop trying.Copy !req
603. But you're not like that.Copy !req
604. You're a fighter.Copy !req
605. You always have been.Copy !req
606. I honestly don't know
where you get it from.Copy !req
607. Dad.Copy !req
608. I think you were swapped in the hospital,
to tell you the truth.Copy !req
609. No.Copy !req
610. I get it from you, Mom.Copy !req
611. I get it from you.Copy !req
612. Well, wherever you get it from,Copy !req
613. I'm proud of you.Copy !req
614. Proud of me for getting fired?Copy !req
615. That you stood up for yourself.Copy !req
616. That you stood up to those...Copy !req
617. shitheads.Copy !req
618. Mom!Copy !req
619. Yes, those shitheads.Copy !req
620. And if you believe in this story...Copy !req
621. Look at me, Nancy.Copy !req
622. finish it.Copy !req
623. Then go sell it to The Indianapolis Star
or whatever and...Copy !req
624. I mean, can you imagine their facesCopy !req
625. when they read a story
about their own townCopy !req
626. in a big paper like that?Copy !req
627. That would be...Copy !req
628. pretty amazing.Copy !req
629. So, why not?Copy !req
630. Why not?Copy !req
631. Finish it.Copy !req
632. Uh, Will?Copy !req
633. Um, you know, about yesterday...Copy !req
634. It's fine, Lucas.Copy !req
635. You don't have to say anything.Copy !req
636. I know, but it's just...Copy !req
637. It was a really cool campaign.Copy !req
638. - And Mike and I, we should've never—
- I don't care anymore, Lucas.Copy !req
639. I really don't.Copy !req
640. We have bigger things to worry about now.Copy !req
641. This should hold him.Copy !req
642. Hey, I found the breakers.Copy !req
643. Whoa, that thing is super creepy.Copy !req
644. Let me see it.Copy !req
645. I think this'll work. Right, buddy?Copy !req
646. Right, Mike.Copy !req
647. Hey, El...Copy !req
648. I just wanted to say...Copy !req
649. You know when I said Nana was sick?Copy !req
650. She wasn't. I lied.Copy !req
651. - I know.
- Right, right, right. No, I just...Copy !req
652. think it was important for you
to know the context.Copy !req
653. Hopper, he went all crazy on me,Copy !req
654. telling me I'm spending
way too much time with you.Copy !req
655. He made me lie. I mean,Copy !req
656. you're the most important thing to me
in the world.Copy !req
657. What if he's right?Copy !req
658. - What?
- Hop.Copy !req
659. No, no, no, no.Copy !req
660. He's just some angry old man
who hates joy.Copy !req
661. But if I only see you,Copy !req
662. and I'm a different species than you,Copy !req
663. then I should be with my species more.Copy !req
664. What are you talking about?Copy !req
665. Did you spy on me?Copy !req
666. - That's totally against the rules.
- I make my own rules.Copy !req
667. - Mike, are you there?
- Yeah!Copy !req
668. - Where are you guys?
- I'm coming. Just...Copy !req
669. hold on a second.Copy !req
670. Shit!Copy !req
671. God, I hope it's not you.Copy !req
672. I really hope it's not you.Copy !req
673. Erica, do you copy?Copy !req
674. Mm-hmm. I copy.Copy !req
675. - You nerds in position or what?
- Yeah, we're in position.Copy !req
676. It's all quiet here,

677. Green light, roger that.Copy !req
678. Commence Operation Child Endangerment.Copy !req
679. Can we maybe not call it that?Copy !req
680. See you on the other side.Copy !req
681. Nerds.Copy !req
682. Winnie!Copy !req
683. Winnie, is that you?Copy !req
684. - Larry?
- Winnie, upstairs in the bedroom!Copy !req

695. I'm there.Copy !req
696. Do you— Do you see anything?Copy !req
697. Yeah, I see those boring boxes
you're so excited about.Copy !req
698. - Any guards?
