Lucas & Dustin & Will: Hello Mrs. Wheeler?..
Karen: I was never told you three were here..
Karen then noticed Eleven.
Karen: Who are you?
Eleven was silent. Lucas looked at her.
Eleven: Eleven.
Karen: I never knew Mike had a friend named — Eleven? But you are welcome to sit at the table.
Lucas, Dustin, Will, and Eleven walked up. Mike looked a little alarmed. Here it comes.
Karen: So, Nancy told me that you were crying for months about a girl.. Is this her?
Mike: — Yes?
Lucas ate the meatloaf slowly, he was a bit worried about how Eleven would respond.
Karen: Well. Where are your parents?
Dustin ate his food nervously, glancing between Karen and Eleven.
Eleven: ....
Mike: She doesn't have any. She was...
Lucas: Kidnapped.
Dustin: Yep!
They looked at Karen. Will wasn't as nervous as the rest of the gang.
Karen: You can stay here, if you need to.
Nancy looked up. Ted was silent.
Karen: You can share Nancy's —

Mike: — She likes the basement.
Karen: Oh? Well, whatever suits you.

Dustin, Lucas, and Will glanced at Mike.
Karen: Well. Okay.

Mike in his head: Don't mention the snowball... don't think about it..
Mike: You missed Christmas.. but it's okay..
Eleven: Oh..
Eleven did not know what 'Christmas' is.
Mike: We're happy you're back though, El'!
Will: Yeah.
Lucas: Since your mom knows about her, she doesn't have to stay in the basement all day.
Mike: I'll ask my mom tommorow, at dinner.
Dustin: So, who wants to play — Dungeons & Dragons?
The gang sat around the table. They played for a while.
Mike: You hear a unfamiliar sound. Boom. Boom. Boom.
Mike: It's the — Demogorgon!
Will was put on the spot, again.
Will: Use Fire Ball!
In the game, the ' wizards ' won.
Mike: Nice!
Dustin and Lucas elbowed him in a playful manner. Everything was back to normal, the way it should. Eleven was back, the gang was together. But there was more Demogorgons...
