Family Video.

Is Steve not around?

[yesdingus]

We're working alternating shifts so someone can always be there with Max. And it's still daylight and I brought my bike, and it's probably fine if I ride back to Steve's? Right? I mean it's really not that far and it'd probably be fine.

[agirlboss]

I'm on my way. I'm also getting in touch with Hopper.

[yesdingus]

Nance, I don't -- I don't want this to turn into a big thing.

[agirlboss]

It won't.

[yesdingus]

Because there's too much else going on, you know?

[agirlboss]

This jerk needs to leave you alone.

[yesdingus]

Yeah.

[agirlboss]

Hopper can assist with that.

[yesdingus]

Maybe in an off the books sort of way?

[agirlboss]

Or I can threaten to shoot him.

[yesdingus]

[That startles a laugh out of her.]

Maybe you should teach me to shoot.

[agirlboss]

I could.

[yesdingus]

Okay.

[agirlboss]

Are you serious?

[yesdingus]

I'm definitely serious.

[agirlboss]

When do you want to start?

[yesdingus]

...is tomorrow too soon?

[agirlboss]

Not at all.

[yesdingus]

Thanks, Nance.

[agirlboss]

No problem.

Are you okay?

[yesdingus]

[She looks at the circle of bruises around her wrist and tugs her sleeve down over it.]

Yeah, I'm good.

[agirlboss]

[She's going to murder this boy!]

Hopper is going to get there before I do but I'm on my way.

[yesdingus]

[She really, really hates that Hopper is now involved.]

Okay. See you soon.
