[Bob sees the pictures Will, Mike and Joyce have been laying around the house, depicting Will's visions from the Shadow Monster]
[Startled] ...Huh. Hmm. [To Will] You drew all these, yourself...? [Will and Joyce both nod] Why, exactly?
I, I told you the rules. No questions, okay? [Bob nods] We, we just... need you to help us figure out what- Bob? Bob! Over here! [Bob, Will and Mike follow her to a drawing showing an intersection, which she draws an X on] Where... where this is.
That's the objective. Find the X.
Yeah? What's at the X? Pirate treasure? [Chuckles]
[Gives him a look] Bob? No questions.
Okay. [Pause] Lemme talk to you for just a second. Hang on, guys. [He takes her aside] Joyce, you can talk to me. You know that, right?
...Yeah. What's the problem, exactly?
What's the problem? Joyce... Will doesn't look well. You don't look well. What's going on?
Nothing! Nothing-
Is this an episode? Is this one of Will's episodes?
No! [Scoffs] No, no...
I'm sorry. I just, I don't... see how any of this is good for Will, or for you. And even if I wanted to play along, I mean, how could I figure anything out if I don't understand the context of the game? Or... [he notices some of the pictures]
What? What is it?
I know that shape. It's Lover's Lake. it's Lover's Lake! I get it. [Turns to another set of pictures] Okay, I get it! That's Lake Jordan. [Moves through the house, Joyce follows as Will and Mike watch] And, if that's Lake Jordan, then you can probably find... [snaps his fingers] Yeah! That's, uh Sattler's Quarry, and then, if you just follow it naturally...it moves to... the Eno River. And there it is! That's the Eno, do you see it? [Joyce frowns] Okay, so the lines aren't roads. But they act like roads. And they act like roads 'cause when you follow 'em, you'll see... they don't go over water. And that's the giveaway. That's the giveaway! [Claps his hands] Ha! Don't you get it? It's not a puzzle. It's a map. It's a map of Hawkins!
