Dart appears from the tunnel hole and stares at the humans behind the safety glass.

Tech: Mother of God.

Hopper: Yeah, wanna talk shit about the kid now. We gotta go.

Tech: It's... it's polycarbonate. It can't get through.

They thought that but more came from the tunnel.

Owens: Mother Mary and Joseph.

As more rise from the hole Dart bashes against the wall scaring the tech as it cracks.

Hopper: You sure about that glass?

Owens punches a button sounding the alarm throughout the lab.

In Will's room Joyce is still questioning him, Mike tries to get past the guards as El is trying to think of a solution and Bob is in shock as the alarm sounds.

Bob: What the hell?

El: We're too late.

Joyce: What?

Mike: We're too late!

Bob: What's going on?

El: We're under attack.

MP: What's going on down there? Does anybody copy?

In the basement the lab folks run out of the basement evacuating the area in hopes of escaping as they reach the elevator doors that slowly open.

Owens: Stairs! Stairs!

Owens pulls Hopper to the stairway and run up the stairs as the dogs break the glass and run through the basement lab trapping a few in the elevator.

With the others upstairs El realizes how Will is a spy for the Mind Flayer.

El: We need to make Will sleep.

Joyce: What?

El: He's a spy. If he knows where we are...

Mike: So, does the Mind Flayer.

Will: They're lying!

Mike: He killed those soldiers. He'll kill us, too!

Will: He's lying! He's lying! He's lying! He's lying! He's lying!

Will thrashes around trying to leave but Joyce holds him down, she understands what El and Mike mean but it's her son, last year and a few days ago she'd do anything to protect her son but now is different. He's flayed and she knows it.

Meanwhile Hopper and Owens make their way to Will and the others, Dart and the other monsters do as well, destroying and killing anything in their path as guards shoot at them but they are basically impenetrable.

Mike: Shit!

Bob: Those are gunshots!

Will: He's lying! He's lying!

Joyce: Okay, Will, Will, listen, listen. Do you know who I am? Do you know who I am?

Joyce holds her sons' arms down asking him to hope he'll answer her way see fit.

Will: You're... you're... you're mom.

Joyce closes her eyes as a tear escapes one eye.

Joyce: *to Bob* Hold him down.

Will: No! No! Let go! No! No! Let me go! Let go! No, let me go!

Bob holds him down as Joyce grabs a syringe but El stops her.

El: Let me handle this.

She tilts her head to the side as she uses her powers and knocks Will out as Joyce holds his hand.
