Meanwhile, at the Wheeler's house, Billy was ringing the doorbell thinking that the friend that Daphne may have mentioned in her note was Nancy. However, it was not Nancy who opened the door, it was Mrs. Wheeler in nothing but a robe.
"Oh, hi," Billy greeted, pleasantly surprised and looking at Mrs. Wheeler from her head down to her feet. "Hi," she answered politely.
"I, uh, didn't realize Nancy had a sister," Billy smirked. Any chance he got to flirt with what he thought was a beautiful woman he did. Even if he was on a mission to find his sisters. Mrs. Wheeler, who took his bait chuckled and grinned. "What's so funny?" Billy asked, seeming innocent.
"I'm Nancy's mother."
Billy pretended to be shocked and answered, "No."
"Yes," Mrs. Wheeler chuckled. "Mrs. Wheeler," Billy greeted properly when she realized that she was talking with a complete stranger said, "Um, I'm sorry, and you are?"
"Billy. Billy Hargrove," Billy smiled his smug smile and shook Mrs. Wheeler's hand with both of his. "You must be here for Nancy," Mrs. Wheeler blushed.
"Nancy? No, no, no. Not my type. Uh... no, actually, I am looking for my little sisters. Max. Goes by Maxine and Daphne. They've been missing all day, and, uh, to be honest with you, I've been worried sick, you know, so... I thought Max was at Lucas', but Mrs. Sinclair said your house is the..." Billy leaned a hand on the open doorway as he looked down on Mrs. Wheeler. "The designated hangout, so, you know, I thought Daphne may be here too since she's friends with Nancy and so... here I am."
Mrs. Wheeler stared longingly into Billy's blue eyes and then brought him into the house and to the kitchen. She informed Billy that no one else was home, but her, her husband, Ted, and their youngest daughter, but pointed him to the next place she thought Mike, who was probably friends with Max and their group, maybe and most likely where Max was. The Byers.
"Their driveway is pretty dark this time of night. So drive slowly," Mrs. Wheeler handed Billy the directions to the Byer's house and he took them while leaning on the kitchen island, a cookie that Mrs. Wheeler offered him in one hand. "Always," Billy grinned, his smile infectious to Mrs. Wheeler.
"And when you see Mike, tell him to come home already, okay?" Mrs. Wheeler asked. Billy didn't break his eye contact with Mrs. Wheeler and said, "You're a real lifesaver, you know that?" And then took a bite of the cookie. "Anytime," Mrs. Wheeler grinned back.
"I'll see you later," Billy gave another smile and walked himself out of the Wheeler's house. Planning on coming to see Mrs. Wheeler again at some point after fixing the situation with his sisters.
Back at the Byer's house, Hopper was trying to convince Eleven to not go back into the lab to close the gate. Even though that is exactly what they needed to do to stop, well, everything. "It's not like it was before. It's grown. A lot, and I mean, that's considering we get in there. The place is crawling with those dogs."
