"It can't be good for her to be in there this long." Mike complains at Hopper and El's cabin.
Olivia goes into Hopper's fridge.
"How do they survive out here without any food?"
"Mike, relax." Max says.
She grabs a can of beer and cracks it open.
"She could be getting brain damage."
"Holy shit is that real?" Lucas asks.
"No. He made it up. Mike doesn't know what he's talking about."
"Oh and you do? Olivia, some help?"
"Nope." She sips Hopper's beer on his recliner. Max and Mike roll their eyes and go to Nancy and Jonathan.
"Guys, who should decide El's limits?" Max asks. "Mike or Eleven?"
"The way you frame that is such bullshit."
"It not Mike! That's your problem. It's also the reason why she dumped your ass."
"El dumped you?" Nancy asks.
"Yes, a while ago. Keep up Nance." Olivia says.
"It's because she is conspiring against me." Mike points to Max. "You're corrupting her."
"No, I'm enlightening her. The fact is, she's not yours. She's her own person and she's capable of making her own decisions."
"She's risking her life for no reason."
"For no reason?" Nancy asks. "The flayed are out there doing God knows what. And El isn't stupid. She knows her abilities better than any of us."
"Exactly."
"And she is her own person with her own free will."
"Thank you! El has saved the world twice and Mike still doesn't trust her."
"Trust? Really? Even after you made Eleven spy on us?"
"What?" Lucas asks.
"She didn't tell you? Your girlfriend used El's powers to spy on us."
"I didn't make her. It was her idea."
"I second that. It was her idea." Olivia says.
