YOU COULD SWEAR YOUR JAW WAS NEARLY TOUCHING THE FLOOR RIGHT NOW.
demogorgons.. are real? the mind flayer.. is real? there is a girl with superpowers? what the actual fuck
dustin and max look at you worriedly.
"uh. are you alright"
you shake your head, breathing heavily, "fine, that was just.. a lot to take in"
you crease your eyebrows, "but if you all did all that to stop this shit, why is sit still happening? how is it still happening?"
dustin shakes his head, "i don't know. it should be impossible. but there's only one person who knows what actually happened"
"eddie" you and max say together.
dustin quickly packs a bag, you all hurry out of his room.
"have you talked to anyone else?"
"no. i can't find lucas or nancy, and mike's in-"
"california. shit, shit, shit"
"dusty, where are you going?" dustins mum asks.
"to see a friend"
"you heard the news. it's not safe"
you and max both exit.
"good point, we'll be extra careful, then. thanks, mum. i love you, bye" he says hurriedly, shutting the door.
you all quickly grab your bikes, biking down the street.
you follow the two who knows where, probably to some more of their friends.
you all reach a video store, you raise an eyebrow.
you all put your bikes down heading inside.
"hey, steve" dustin says.
"you guys see this?" a guy with gorgeous brown hair points up at the tv.
"how many phones do you have?"
"someone was murderd"
"how many phones do you have?" dustin presses.
"wha, two. why?"
"technically, three, if you count keith's" a girl with short brown hair points out.
"yeah, three works" max nods.
"what are you doing"
dustin chucks his bag over.
"woah, whata re you-!"
"my pile!"
"no, no, no! my tapes, dude!" steve shouts as dustin jumps over the counter.
"dude!"
"what are you doing, man!"
you and max both go around the back.
"setting up base of operations"
"base of operations? and who's this"
you sweat-drop, "oh, i'm [name]"
you smile, sticking out your hand, shaking both of theirs.
"we told her" dustin says.
"you told a random girl?!"
you huff, "bitch excuse you. i ain't some random girl so you better shut your ass up"
you cross your arms.
the girl smirks, "i like this one let's be friends"
you nod, "sure.."
steve shakes his head, "get off that!"
"i need it"
"need it for what?"
"looking up eddie's friends' phone numbers"
"oh, eddie. your new best friend you think is cooler than me because he plays your nerdy game?"
"yes. i never said that?"
"seriously, you guys, maybe on a monday you can play around in here like toddlers, but it's saturday. it's our busiest day"
"alright, look, robin, i totally empathize, but this cannot wait until monday" dustin grabs a clipboard, writing some stuff down.
"what, cause calling of eddie's friends is an emergency?"
"correct!"
"uh, do you want me to strangle him or do you want to do it?"
"we can take turns"
"can you just fill them in while i do this?"
"fill us in on what?"
max sighs.
after all that, you, max and dustin each got assigned a phone to call each one of eddie's friends.
each call went the same, them either telling you to fuck off, or saying they saw him but no good information.
you cross off another name on the list.
"hey, guys, i might have a lead"
you all look over at max.
"seriously?" dustin asks excitedly.
"yeah. apparently, eddie gets his drugs from some guy named reefer rick, and sometimes ddie crashes there"
"that sounds promising. um, where does this reefer rick guy live?" robin asks.
"see, that's the thing. no one knows. he's more of a.. a legend than someone that people actually know"
"what about a last name?" dustin asks.
"i don't know that either"
"bet the cops know the last name"
you all look over at steve.
"what?"
"cops. i mean, listen, if this reefer rick guy is actually a drug dealer, i can guarantee you he's been busted at some point. means he's in the system"
"the cops?" dustin says, 'really, steve, that's your suggestion?"
"i mean, i just think at this point they should probably be filled in on what we know, what's going on"
"you think eddie's guilty, don't you?"
"woah, woah, woah. i believe in innocent until proven guilty all that constitutional shit. i just, you know"
am jealous?
"just don't think that we can rule it out"
"that's precisely what we're trying to do here, steve"
"and maybe we'd have a little bit more luck if you spent less time trying to find a girlfriend, and more time trying to find eddie"
"oh well, someone has to attend to the customers"
"especially if they're babes, right?" robin winks, you smirk.
"hey, not fair. okay? i attend to all the customers equally, babes and non-babes alike. we've got a very big selection in here, okay? it can be super overwhelming for these people"
"yeah, it can be" robin smiles.
she sits down at the computer.
"what are you doing?" max asks.
"maybe we don't need a last name"
you stand behind her.
she searches something up in the database.
"twelve ricks already have accounts here"
"that's a lot of ricks"
"so, let's narrow it down"
robin presses some buttons, revealing the movies each rick bought.
"rick alderman's latest rentals are 'annie' and 'dumbo'. what are the chances our drug dealer has a family?"
or just likes kids movies
"not likely"
"all right. rick conroy. 'sixteen candles' 'teen wolf' and 'romancing the stone' " robin chuckles.
"no"
"okay. rick joiner. 'mask' 'footloose' and 'grease'"
"nah"
"rick kimbrough. 'the blue lagoon' and 'splash' "
you all laugh, "definitely not"
"okay. rick lipton. 'fast times at ridgemont high' 'cheech and chong's next movie' 'cheech and chong's nice dreams' 'cheech and chong's up in smoke' "
you shake your head with an amused grin.
"bingo"
"lipton?" max questions.
"spelled like the tea. 2121 holland road"
"that's out by lover's lake"
"middle of nowhere"
"it's a perfect place to hide"
