Well, well⊠What do we have here? [Mick scoffs] What is she wearing? What are those, overalls? [Dottie] There arenât any cows to milk here, kid. Go on back to the farm now. Iâm looking for my sister. Aw⊠Shirley Temple lost her sister. So sad. I saw her. Here. Uh-uh. Hand out of pocket. Slow. Give me that shit. Is that Kali? Kali? How did you find us? Who else knows youâre here? No one. So, what then? Poof! You just show up like magic with that picture? Stay calm. Sheâs just a kid. A kid who could get us all killed. If I have to ask again, Shirley, youâll start losing things. Starting with those pretty little locks of yours. Yeah? Come on, Axe. Put down the knife. How did you find us? I saw her. [Mick] Axe! Thatâs not an answer. Jesus. Jesus Christ! [exclaiming] Get off! Shit! Shit! [Kali] Youâre a terrible dancer, Axel. I told you, stay out of my head. So, weâre threatening little girls now, are we? She knows about you. She had this. Where did you get this? Mama. Your mother gave this to you? In her dream circle. [scoffs] Dream circle. I think sheâs a schizo or something. Says sheâs looking for her sister. Yeah. Like I said, schizo. Jesus! I saw you. In the rainbow room. What is your name? Jane. Sister. Sister. [Kali] And this memory your mother shared⊠that is your only memory of me? [Eleven] Yes. [Kali] And how long have you been with this policeman? [Eleven] Three hundred and twenty-seven days. And this policeman, he thinks he can work out some sort of deal with these men to set you free? Yes. He says soon. Heâs naĂŻve then. Weâll always be monsters to them. Do you understand? Let me guess. Your policeman, he also stops you from using your gifts? What you can do is incredible. It makes you very special, Jane. Wait. Do you have a gift? Different. I can make people see, or not see, whatever I choose. Is that why you made the man with the crazy hair dance? Axel is not so fond of spiders, so⊠You made him see spiders? But it doesnât have to be scary. This butterfly, it isnât real. Iâve just convinced your mind it is. Think of it as a kind of magic. Are you real? Yes, Iâm real. [both chuckle] Whatâs wrong? Nothing is wrong. I just feel⊠whole⊠now. Like⊠a piece of me was missing, and now itâs not. Does that make sense? Yes. I think your mother sent you here for a reason. I think she somehow knew that we belong together. I think this is your home. Home. Yes. Home. [man over radio] This is car 13, responding to a 245 at 31 Ashbury. [man 2 over radio indistinctly] âŠsuspect under surveillance. [clatters] [Axel] Shit. Howâs your white hick sister?

[all] âȘ EIEIO âȘ âȘ And on his farm he had a cow âȘ She found me with only this. Whatâs that mean? It means she can find people without moving. With nothing but an image. You telling me Shirleyâs a human radar detector or some shit? Or some shit, yes. Come on. No way. Weâll find out soon enough. I want to do one. Tomorrow. You serious, Kal? Weâre way too hot right now. [singsong] Paranoid. Realistic. You donât kill their men and expect them to look the other way. If they find us, they will unleash hell. So we give in to fear? Sheâs in pain. She needs this. We go out tomorrow. Swear to God, Shirley Templeâs gonna get us all killed. [Hopper] Itâs me. I know that Iâve been gone too long, and, uh⊠I just want you to know that itâs not because of you. And itâs not because of our fight. Something came up, and, uh, Iâll explain everything soon. I just, um⊠I want you to know that Iâm not⊠Iâm not mad at you. I⊠Iâm just sorry. Itâs okay. Itâs only me. Bad dream? What time is it? Itâs late. You slept well. Come. Itâs time you meet my friends. Properly this time. We need more money, Kal. I canât keep eating this garbage. This is Axel. The spider hater? Yes, the spider hater. This is Dottie, our newest. Like you, she just left home. [Axel] You mean the loony bin. [Kali] Mick, our eyes, our protector. This is Funshine, our warrior. Donât let his size frighten you. Funâs a teddy bear. Nice to meet you, Miss Jane. If youâre looking for a number, you wonât find one. Theyâre not like us. No, not in that way. But like us, theyâre outcasts. Outcasts? Freaks. Speak for yourself. Society left them behind, hurt them, discarded them. We were dead, all of us. Kali saved us. Here. And here. Donât get all mushy on us now, Fun. No, not mushy. True. Now we help her. In this life, kid, you roll over or you fight back. Weâre all fighters here. Fight who? Everyone you see here was in some way responsible for what happened to us. You hurt the bad men? No, we just give âem a pat on the back. You kill them? Theyâre criminals. We simply make them pay for their crimes. Boom. Damn, Shirley. Whatâs the matter? You look like youâve seen a ghost. We canât all be fighters, I guess. Iâm a fighter. Iâve killed. These men you killed, did they deserve it? They hurt me. [screaming] And they still want to hurt you. To hurt us. Weâre just making the first move. Come. I was just like you once. I kept my anger inside. I tried to hide from it, but then that pain festered. Festered? It spread. Until finally I confronted my pain, and I began to heal. Do you see that train? Yes. I want you to draw it to us. [metal creaking] [Eleven] I canât. Last night you told me you lifted a van once. Yes. The bad men were trying to take you again, and that made you angry. Good. So, find that anger, focus on that, not the train, not its weight. I want you to find something from your life. Something that angers you. [Max laughs] Now channel it. Dig deeper. Your whole life youâve been lied to⊠Do I have a mother? Sheâs not around anymore. âŠimprisoned. Donât walk away from me! Grow the hell up! [screaming] The bad men took away your home, your mother⊠Jane. [screaming] They took everything from you. Papa! They stole your life, Jane. I want you to find them. [screaming] [Mick whoops] Yeah! [all cheering] Yeah, Jane! So, how do you feel? Good. These are the bad men, as you call them. The oneâs we believe are still alive. Do you know any? Him. [Dr. Brenner] Four-fifty⊠He hurt Mama. His name is Ray Caroll. And he did more than hurt your mother. [electricity crackles] The bad men like Ray, they know about us. Itâs made them hard to track. But maybe not anymore. [static crackling] âGramercy Apartments. Washington and Bethel.â Thatâs gotta be it. Right? âLilburn.â Where is that? About an hour east. We donât even have a new ride. So we swap plates. We have plates, right? Yeah. Itâs risky. Whereâs the fun if thereâs no risk? We want to give my sister a memorable first day, right? Iâm in. For Miss Jane. Yeah, sure. Why not? Mick? Screw it! [âDead End Justiceâ playing] [gun cocks] Bitchinâ. Bitchinâ. [âDead End Justiceâ continues playing] [man] Get off me! Get off me! [âDead End Justiceâ continues playing] What are we doing? Stocking up. Hey, your bathroom is leaking. [man] Oh, shit. Yes. Shit. Okay, contestants, you have a minute and a half, letâs begin your supermarket sweep! [âDead End Justiceâ continues playing] Hey! Put that back, or Iâll blow your head off. You hear me, freak? Put the gun down. Stay back. Stay back. Darrel, your money is insured. Weâre only stealing from the war criminal billionaires who own this place. You wonât even lose a dime. I said stay back. Weâre on the same side. I promise. Stay back. [screams] [grunts] Damn, Shirley. [police sirens wailing] Letâs go! Go! Go, go, go, go! Mick! We gotta go, Mick! We should case the place, stick to the routine. We have time. We also have her. Can you look? Heâs watching television. Is he alone? I saw him. No one else. Good enough for me. Me, too. Letâs do this. Keep it running. Meet you around back. [screams] [audience laughing] Punky, whatâs the matter? A nightmare. I dreamt I was in the doctorâs office. All of a sudden, heâs started to give me my shot in my arm. Then the needle got bigger and bigger and bigger⊠[knob clicking] [Kali] Hello, Ray. Jesus Christ! [Funshine] Sit down. Please. I said sit. Please⊠Just, please⊠just take what you want. [Axel] Oh, we will. Whereâs your wallet? Bedroom. My bedroom. My jeans. Come on. [Dottie] Yes. [Axel] Got it. Do you remember us? What about us? Do you remember us, Ray? [grunting] Please. Please. You hurt Mama. [exclaims] [grunts] [groans] Wait. [shakily] Please. Listen⊠I just did what he told me to do. He said she was sick. You had a choice, Ray. And you chose to follow a man you knew was evil. No, wait! No, wait! Wait! I can help. I can help you find him. Find who? Brenner! I can take you to him. Papa is gone. No, he is alive. Do not lie to us, Ray. Iâm not lying! [softly] I swear⊠[whimpering] He trusts me. Iâll take you to him. If heâs alive, Jane will find him. Just as she found you. Do it, Jane. Do it. Wait. [choking] Not too quick. He wasnât so generous with your mother. [woman over phone] Sweetie, just stay calm. [Axel] Oh, shit! The police are on their way, honey. Okay? [gasping, coughing] Whatâs wrong? Whatâs wrong? We got a problem. [Dottie] Kids in the apartment. [Ray] Please⊠Did he show your mother mercy? No. [Ray] Please. No. Iâm sorry. He took her from you, without hesitation. Please donât. Please. [Axel] We got to go, K. They called the cops. We finish this first. [Axel] Kali! Jane, now! [Ray] Please, donât⊠Please. Please. [gun cocks] [exclaims] [gasps] [glass shatters] [police sirens wailing] [Axel] Kali, we gotta go! [Dottie] Shit! [Axel] Go, go, go! [Dottie] Shit! Come on. Get in! If you wanted to show mercy, that is your choice. But donât you ever take away mine. Ever. Do you understand? Do you understand? [indistinct radio chatter] [Funshine] I see you, and I raise you ten. How ya like that? That was a mistake right there, girl. A mistake. [Dottie] I think youâre full of shit. [knocking on door] May I sit? I was once just like you, you know that? But thatâs why Iâm hard on you, because I see in you my past mistakes. They were kids. Does that excuse that manâs sins? Were we not also children? I remember the day I came to the rainbow room and you were gone. So, when my gifts were strong enough, I used them to escape. And I ran. I ran away as far as I could. And it was there, far away, that I found a place to hide. A family. A home. Just like you and your policeman. But they couldnât help me. So, eventually, I lost them, too. So, I decided to play the part. To stop hiding. To use my gifts against those who hurt us. Youâre now faced with the same choice, Jane. Go back into hiding and hope they donât find you. Fight, and face them again. Face who? The man who calls himself our father. Papa is dead. [Dr. Brenner] That man tonight disagreed. Youâre not real. All this time? And you havenât looked for me? Why? Because you thought I was dead? Or because you were afraid of what you might find? Go away. You have to confront your pain. You have a wound, Eleven, a terrible wound. And itâs festering. Do you remember what that means? Festering? It means a rot. And it will grow. [echoing] Spread. Get out of my head. And eventually, it will kill you. [screaming] Get out of my head! [crying] This isnât a prison, Jane. Youâre always free to return to your policeman. Or stay, and avenge your mother. Let us heal our wounds together. [laughs] Full house. Screw this. Iâm out. Out of money, you mean. You are broke! [laughing] You want in, Mick? [scoffs] Nope. Aw, come on! Just one hand. Youâre the worst. [Dottie] How am I the worst? Because, one hand leads to two hands, two hands leads to three. Before you know it, Iâm as broke as Axel. [Dottie] Are you in or out? [Mick] Out. Today, tomorrow, the next day. Maybe we can call you âEl.â Short for Eleven. Youâd better run! Sheâs our friend, and sheâs crazy! [Mike] No, El, youâre not the monster. You saved me, you understand? You saved me. [Eleven] Compromise? [Hopper] Itâs something thatâs kind of in between. Like halfway happy. Once we fix it up, itâs gonna be nice. Real nice. This is your new home. [grunts] [beeping] [echoing] Thatâs where I was. Itâs a damn graveyard. I need to get through! I need to get through! [Hopper] Whoa! Whoa! I need to warn them. Itâs a trap! I need to get through. Itâs a trap. I need to tell them itâs a trap. [Eleven] Mike! Itâs a trap! Itâs a trap! Mike! Mike! Mike! Mike! Mike, where are you? Mike! Mike! [loud banging] [officer] Go, go, go! Letâs go. [officer] Donât move! [Axel] The hellâs going on? They found us! Jesus! Jesus Christ! No, no, no. Shh⊠[officer 1] Spread left. [officer 2] Right. [Funshine] Letâs go! Now! Hey! Hey! Jane, come on! Come on, hurry! Look out! Look out! [screaming] [officer] Get down! Get down! [Axel] Do something, Kal. Do something! Jane, get in. Itâs a damn graveyard. Mike! Itâs a trap! Itâs a trap! Iâm sorry. Iâm sorry, but I have to go back. My friends⊠My friends are in danger. This isnât time for a talk. We got to go right now! Your mother sent you here for a reason, remember? We belong together. Thereâs nothing for you back there. They cannot save you, Jane. No. But I can save them. Jane. Jane! Jane! Jane! The hell was that? Whatâs wrong with her? [woman] You all right, sweetie? You were looking a little forlorn there. You mind if I join you? Hmm. [sighs] You are awfully young to be traveling alone, arenât you? Well, you are quite the chatterbox. So, where are you headed? To your parents, I hope? Iâm going to my friends. Iâm going home. [new wave song playing]
