Dustin was pacing along the elevator's roof, speaking into his walkie. "Code red, I repeat code red. This is a code red, I repeat, a code red. Does anyone copy? We're innocent children and we are trapped under Starcourt Mall. The Red Army has infiltrated Hawkins and if we are found, they will torture and kill us." Dustin yells into the walkie.
"Hey! You gotta take it easy on that thing. Gonna drain the battery." Jeffery scolds, snatching the walkie from Dustin, and shutting it off.
Dustin rolls his eyes. "The mall just opened." Dustin says, grabbing back the walkie. "So?" Steve asks with a shrug.
"So someone could be in range." Dustin says
Steve and Jeffery roll their eyes. "Whatdya think, Petey the Mall Cop is gonna rappel down here and save the day?" Steve asks, annoyed and frustrated.
"All right, why are you such a cranky pants after --" Dustin stops and he looks around, making sure no one hears, eyeing Jeffery before leaning towards Steve. Jeffery rolls his eyes.

Steve's eyes widened. He shakes his head, that was far from it. Steve waved his arms. "Shhhhhh! Jesus Christ. Will you just give up already on your creepy dream?" Steve asks, crossing his arms.
"I heard you guys talkin' all night." Dustin says
"Yeah, we were trying to figure out a way to open up the door while you children were sleeping.

He couldn't help but think about him all night, wondering if he was safe and away from all this craziness.
Steve walked over to a corner, ready to take a leak, it was really pressing at his bladder. Dustin gasps, aghast. "What are you doing?" Jeffery asks, disgusted. Steve scoffs, looking over his shoulder. "What's it look like I'm doin? I'm takin a leak. Look away." Steve says to Dustin and Jeffery, when they don't listen immediately, he yells. "LOOK AWAY!"

Robin notices a stream of pee flowing down the wall. Her face pulls into a grimace. "Can you redirect your stream, please?" Robin calls out
