After their conversation at Asher's house, the three knew that they needed to find Eddie. If any of this was linked to the Upside Down, which was a slight chance, they needed to know sooner rather than later. So, the three had decided to go somewhere were they'd be able to get some more help, at that would be at Family Video. Asher and Dustin knows that Steve and Robin are always put in for the Saturday shifts there, so they knew that the two would both be there.

"Hey Steve" Dustin says as the three walk into the store, seeing Steve and Robin behind the counter.

"You guys see this?" Steve asks the three teenagers.

"How many phones do you have?" Dustin asks Steve, getting straight to the point.

"Someone was murdered" Steve mentions.

"Yeah, we already know, dickface" Asher says to Steve, rolling his eyes "How many phones do you have?"

"Two, why?" Steve says before looking at Robin.

"Technically three, if you count Keith's in the back" Robin mentions to the younger teenagers.

"Yeah, three works" Max mentions, making Asher and Dustin jump over the counter, knocking the tapes over in the process.

"My pile!" Robin complains.

"No, no, no! Not my tapes, dude!" Steve also complains as the two just ignore him and go onto the computer "What are you two doing?"

"Setting up base of operations here" Dustin answers, not even giving Steve a glance.

"Base of operations?" Robin asks, being completely and utterly confused.

"Stop. Get of off that" Steve tells Dustin, who is busy typing away on the computer.

"No, I need it" Dustin says to Steve.

"Need it for what?" Steve asks, being confused just like Robin.

"Looking up Eddie's friend's phone numbers" Dustin bluntly says.

"Oh, Eddie, your new best friend who you think is cooler than me because he plays your nerdy game and because he's best friends with Ash?" Steve asks Dustin, rolling his eyes.

"You sound a bit jealous there, Harrington?" Asher asks with a laugh.

"Eddie, yes" Dustin complains before realising what Steve had said "I never said that."

"Seriously, guys, maybe on a Monday you can play around here like toddlers, but it's Saturday" Robin explains to the three "It's our busiest day."

"All right, look, Robin, I empathize, but this cannot wait until Monday" Dustin says as he writes down all of the numbers of Eddie's friends apart from Asher's.

"What, 'cause calling all of Eddie's friends is an emergency?" Robin asks, not being impressed in the slightest.

"Correct!" Dustin shouts right in Asher's ear.
