Summary
The only survivor of a catastrophic failure to cripple the plague-thralls and cultists of the Lord of Decay, Varlet Michael Wheeler is fracturing under the weight of the Inquisition's scrutiny, and it's possible that interrogation has finally broken him.
The new party member William, with the hissing gas mask and secrets and the suspiciously incredible ability to heal grievous injuries, might be the one thing that can pick up what's left of him and the party.

Summary
"What are you… are you, like, okay?"
It's a pretty normal question, even if her delivery was a little bit clumsy, and Mike should give a really normal answer in return.
"Do you think we had a bad father?"
That's not a normal answer. That's a terrible answer. Jesus fucking Christ.
Nancy sits down beside him, putting the Smirnoff down on the table so heavily he can feel the thunk through the floor, and sighs deeply.
"When did you have this epiphany?"
"What?"
"When did you realise Ted sucks?"

Summary
Dustin dips his bare feet into the pool, watches them swing in the blue lights under the bubbling chlorine surface, and thinks about Hawkins. Talons in his spine, in that soft little bundle of wires, sticking him here, pulling taught at his nerves.
Eddie would've fucking loved this.

Summary
Today is a Thursday night, the hottest summer gets before the end of the holidays, when there's endless time to play and read all day without school, and the Party have come around with plastic tubs and book bags and green plastic bags of snacks straining with weight. Like usual, they've taken the basement for themselves, always comfortable underground and stale and away from everyone.
Unto the breach once more.

Summary
When the sermon begins, it doesn’t take long for Will to feel a breath on his ear. “This is gonna be boring isn’t it?”
Will scrunches his face and lolls his head to look at Mike. “Why do you act like you’ve never been to church before?”
“I haven’t.” Mike whispers.
Somewhere around the border of North and South Carolina in 2008, Will Byers is a member of the local church's youth group. Why? Even he doesn't know. When a new member, Mike Wheeler, comes along, Will starts to wonder.
or
Mike Wheeler joins a youth group solely because he has a crush on one of the members.

Says the people in the living room can’t stand it anymore. There’s a noise that bothers them.
The Homeowner doesn't know what he’s talking about, until he brings up the shivering and chattering teeth in the middle of the night.So of course, against his better judgement, he tries to accommodate.

Summary
“My mom - she, she’s unwell, been unwell for a while, and she’s getting…” Elliott scratches at his beard in a violent motion, runs a hand over his mouth as if to keep the words from coming. “There’s a treatment. Expre-- expr-- testing phase, but the data looks solid. It might help, might… Anyway, it’s - creepily expensive. No point talking about it unless I win, so I…” He meets Bloodhound's eyes here, at last, haunted and desperate. “I gotta win, Hound. Whatever it takes. I need this money, and I need it as soon as possible. It can’t wait.”
---
(At the intersection of grief and honour and what it means to do the right thing, Bloodhound faces a choice.)
