Hi.

I'm Dustin.

I'm Robin.

Pleasure to meet you.

Is he here?

Is who here?

Henderson!

Henderson!

He's back!

He's back!

I'm back!

You got the job!

I got the job!

Yay!

Oh!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

I just asked, how many children are you friends with?

Do you really just get to eat as much of this as you want?

Yeah, sure.

That's not really a good idea for me though, you know.

I've gotta keep in shape for The Ladies.

Yeah?

And how's that working out for you?

Ignore her.

She seems cool.

She's not.

The trip to China sounds not bad if you're careful.

The week is long.

So what do you think?

It sounded familiar.

What?

The music.

The music, right there at the end.

Why are you listening to the music, Steve?

Listen to the Russian.

We're translating Russian.

I'm trying to listen to the Russian, but there's music playing in there.

All right, babysitting time is over.

You need to get in there.

Hey, my board!

That was important data, shitbirds.

I guarantee you what we're giving you is way more important than your data.

Yeah?

Yeah.

And how do you know these Russians are up to no good anyways?

How does she know about the Russians?

I don't know.

You told her about the Russians.

It wasn't me.

Hello, I can hear you.

Actually, I can hear everything.

You are both extremely loud.

You think you have evil Russians plotting against our country on tape, and you're trying to translate, but you haven't figured out a single word because you didn't realize the

Russians use an entirely different alphabet than we do.

Sound about right?

Oh!

What do you think you're doing?

I want to hear it.

Why?

Why?

Because maybe I can help.

I'm fluent in four languages, you know.

Russian?

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

That's cool.

I'm a big Latin dingus.

Idiot.

But I can speak Spanish, and French, and Italian, and I've been in a band for 12 years.

My ears are little geniuses, trust me.

Come on, it's your turn to sling ice cream, my turn to translate.

I don't even want credit, I'm just bored.

Where's Steve?

Hey, Steve!

What are you doing?

It's quartered.

Do you have a quarter?

You sure you're tall enough for that ride?

Quarter!

You need help getting up, little Stevie?

Shh!

Would you two just shut up and listen?

What's in those boxes?

They really don't want anybody finding it.

There's got to be a way in.

Well, you know, I could just take him out.

Take who out?

The Russian guard.

What?

I sneak up behind him, I knock him out?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

Yes, Dustin, I did.

And that's why I would be sneaking.

Well please, tell me this and be honest, have you ever actually won a fight?

Okay, that was one time.

Twice.

Jonathan, a year prior?

Listen, that doesn't count.

Why wouldn't it count?

Because it looks like he beat the shit out of you.

Yeah, there's a bunch of things behind him that all added up.

A lot of blood.

A lot of blood.

That just might work.

Robin.

Hey, Robin.

Hey, what are you doing?

I need cash.

Well, half of that's mine.

Where are you going?

Find us a way into that room, a safe way.

And in the meantime, sling ice cream, behave, and don't get beat up.

I'll be back in a jiff.

Oh, dude.

Come on, man.

Not my scooper.

Flashlight?

Thank you.

Yeah, I don't know, man.

I don't know if you can fit in here.

It's, like, super tight.

I'll fit.

Trust me.

No collarbones, remember?

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

I'll fit.

No collarbones, remember?

Oh, excuse me?

Oh, he's, uh, yeah, he's got some disease.

It's cri...

It's crito, um...

Something.

Yeah, I don't know.

He's missing bones and stuff.

He can bend like Gumbo.

You mean Gumby.

I'm pretty sure it's Gumbo.

Dave, just shut up and push me.

Okay.

Push it.

Not my feet, dumbass.

Push my ass.

What?

Touch my butt.

I don't care.

Come on.

Harder.

Push it.

What's wrong with my legs?

I'm not playing.

I have terrible footing.

Here you go.

I'm gonna just shove you.

Ready?

You're gonna shove me?

One, two.

Shit.

Does that work?

Everyone okay?

Yeah, I'm great now that I know that Russians can't design elevators.

I think we've clearly established that those buttons don't work.

They're buttons.

They have to do something.

Yeah, if we had a keycard.

What?

It's an electronic lock.

Same as the loading dock door.

If we don't have a keycard, it won't operate, meaning...

We're stuck in here.

Yeah.

We were trying to figure out a way to open up the door while you children were sleeping.

After eight hours, we're still exactly nowhere, which is, you know, probably just a little bit of the reason why I'm feeling just a tad cranky.

What are you doing?

What does it look like I'm doing?

I'm taking a leak.

Look away.

Look away!

Can you redirect your stream, please?

Ugh.

But if they're building something, why here?

I mean, Hawkins.

Seriously.

Of all places.

At the very best, we're a toilet stop on your way to Disneyland.

But maybe that's it.

Maybe it's our very...

Do you think the Russians know?

About the...

They could.

So it's connected?

Maybe.

How?

I don't know, but it's possible.

I'm sorry, is there something you two would like to share with the class?

I'm sorry, is there something you two would like to share with the class?

Hey, you look like you're starving!

They seem drunk.

Why would they be drunk?

I'm a natural, check it out!

Wipe out!

He's burning up.

You're burning up.

One sec, one sec.

Steve.

Steve.

His pupils are super dilated.

Maybe he's drugged.

Steve, are you drugged?

How many times, Dad?

I don't do drugs.

It's only marijuana.

This isn't funny, okay?

I need to know what they did to you.

Are you gonna die on us?

We all die, my strange little child friend.

It's just a matter of how.

And when.

They're gonna be looking for us up there, so I need you to tell me where you parked your car.

Oh, can we make a pit stop at the food court?

I would kill for a hot dog on a stick.

All right.

Yeah, food, yes.

You can have as much food as you want, but only if you tell me where your car is parked.

Uh-oh.

Uh-oh.

The car's off the board.

What?

They took the keys, the Russians, they took the keys.

Like forever ago.

That's a bummer, right?

You can hold me tight.

You'll be holding on forever.

Exactly.

I know.

Okay, what the hell?

Alas, we're almost there.

Susie must be pretty special, huh?

I mean, if you built this thing and lugged it all the way to the middle of nowhere just to talk to her?

I mean, nobody's scientifically perfect, but Susie's about as close to being perfect as any human can possibly be.

She sound made up to me.

She sound made up to you?

Why are you hesitating?

I'm not, Steve.

I'm not, I'm not.

I think she sounds real.

You know, totally, absolutely real.
