Odette was so happy to see Bob, probably the happiest she was in a while. They all stood examining the drawings tacked to the wall. "You drew all this yourself?" Bob asked Will, Will nodded.

"Uhm....Why exactly?"

"This is a game Will made up. You can't ask questions it's against the rules", Joyce tells him. "You already lost a point"

"I think I understand?" Bob said.

"Alright, go!" Joyce exclaimed heading to the kitchen, bob still stood staring the pictures. "Bob?" Bob turned around staring at Joyce, who just waved her hand signaling to follow her.

"Coming! Can you hold these?" Bob asked Odette and she nodded, taking the brain teasers in her hands. Bob turned around and walked after Joyce who was drawing an 'x' onto the piece where Hopper apparently was.

"Where is this?" Joyce asked.

"Thats the objective, find X", Mike tells him.

Bob chuckled. "Yeah? What's at X? Buried pirate treasure?" He joked; Joyce only responded with telling him he's going to lose another point if he keeps these questions up.

"Uh, let me talk to you", Bob says, "Kids hang on for a second, okay?" He wrapped his hand around Joyce's shoulder as he pulls her out of the room and into Will's.

He let out a sigh, staring at the brunette. "You can talk to you! You know that right?"

"...Yeah", Joyce responded, unsure what excuse to use. "What's the...Problem, exactly?" She stammered, running her hand behind her neck awkwardly.

"What's the problem?" Bob repeated, looking around the walls. "Joyce, Will clearly isn't well, you don't look well and Odette's eyebags have never been worse!!", He said. Joyce looked at him mouth a gap, again unsure what to say to him.

"What's going on?" Bob asked her once again this time in a lower tone, calm as he places a hand on her shoulder.

"Nothing, nothing!"

"Is this another one of Will's episodes?"

"No, no, no", Joyce scoffed, running a hand through her hair.

"I'm just lost, I don't know how any of this is good for you or Will" Bob says. "I mean I want to play but how in the world am I meant to play when I don't understand the context of the game... " He trailed off noticing the familiar spot in the maze of the drawings.

"Wait, I know that shape", He squints his eyes, getting a better look at the drawing. "It's lovers lake."

"Oh, I get it!" Bob exclaimed, walking out Will's room, Joyce rushing quickly behind.

"That's Lake Jorden", Bob said, running to another part of the vines.

"And if that's Lake Jorden then..." Bob trailed off once again, running down the hall, he snapped his fingers. "Satter's Quarry!!"
