Eddie slams a phone book down on the table as we surround him 

(E) Check this out. The War Zone. I've been there once. It's huge. They got everything you need for, uh... well, killing things, basically 

(R)You think fake Rambo has enough guns there? 

she asks as she points to a picture of a grenade 

(R) is that a grenade? I mean, how is any of this legal?

(E) Well lucky for us it is so... This-this place is just far enough out of Hawkins. As long as we steer clear of the main roads, we oughta be able to avoid cops, and uh, angry hicks 

(Erica) If we're trying to avoid angry hicks, maybe we shouldn't go to some store called the War Zone 

(N) Normally, I'd agree, but we need the weapons 

(Dani) Exactly, so it's worth it in the end 

(D) But is it, with the time? It'll take all day to bike there and back 

(E) Who said anything about bikes? 

(S) What, you got some sort of car we don't know anything about?

(E) It's not exactly a car, Steve. And It's not exactly mine, but, uh... it'll do. Hey, Red, uh, you got a ski mask or bandana, something like that?

I look at Max as we both smirk knowing exactly what mask to give him

We follow Eddie, wearing the michael myers mask from Halloween, behind the trailers. He peeks out behind a trailer, as he waves for us to follow him. 

We run behind a few trailers, then spot an RV. We manage to run behind it without being seen by the owners. Eddie then opens up the back window as I watch the owners. He quickly jumps in as Steve follows behind him. 

Steve turns to me as he reaches his hands out. I grabbed on to his arm as I tumbled in the RV. I groaned in pain as I reached my hands out for Nancy. I pulled her in as she mumbled a thanks. I walked over to the front seat as Eddie was sitting in the driver's seat with his tools 

I watch as he grabs some wires from underneath the steering wheel as Steve watches from behind me. Eddie clips a few wires with his pliers as I took a step forwards 

(Dani) How did you learn all this?

(E) Well, when the other dad's were teaching their kids how to fish or play ball, my old man was teaching me how to hot-wire. Now, I swore to myself I wouldn't wind up, like he did. But now I'm wanted for murder, and soon, grand theft auto. So, uh, I'm really living up to the munson name 

(Dani) Still a cool skill to have 

(E) Thanks Dani

He winks at me before working on the wires 

(R) Uh, Eddie, I'm not sure I love the idea of you driving 

(E) Oh, I'm just starting this sucker. Harrington's got her. Don't ya, big boy? 

I smirked at Steve as Robin and him shared a glance at each other. Eddie than snaps the wires together as the RV starts up 

(Owners) Hey open the door! 

(Dani) Shit! Guys we gotta go! 

Steve pushes Eddie out of the driver seat as I sit in the passenger's seat 

(S) Shit! Go! It's just a car 

(Dani) Yes it is a car now lets go! 

(S) Everybody, hang on to something!
