CHATBOT: INT. WHEELER'S HOUSE - NIGHT The whole gang (MIKE, ELEVEN, DUSTIN, LUCAS, WILL, MAX, and STEVE) are gathered in the Wheeler's basement, trying to determine their next move, as HOPPER works with Joyce in the kitchen, setting up a new magnet-filled plan. NANCY enters the basement, her face pale and her body shivering. NANCY Guys, I don't feel so good... She collapses onto the floor. Everyone panics and gathers around her. Will's face turns to one of dread. WILL (speaking softly) It's the Mind Flayer... The room turns ice-cold. Windows freeze up, making it impossible to see outside. Everyone's breath is visible. ELEVEN We have to help her! Eleven kneels beside Nancy, placing a hand on her forehead, trying to use her powers to remove the Mind Flayer from Nancy's body. The other kids huddle together, watching anxiously. ELEVEN (CONT'D) (groaning) I can't... it's too strong. Suddenly, Nancy's body starts convulsing violently. Eleven and Mike desperately try to hold her down. A dark, thick black smoke starts to seep from her mouth and eyes. DUSTIN We need to get it out of her! LUCAS How? Eleven can't do it! Everyone looks at Will, who still has a trace of the Mind Flayer in him. WILL I can try to connect with it, distract it maybe. STEVE We need something to trap it in! DUSTIN The Faraday cage! Like we did with the Demodog in season two! As Nancy's convulsions increase, Will grabs her hand and concentrates deeply, trying to use his connection to the Mind Flayer to communicate with it. WILL (aggressive) Leave her alone! It's me you want! The dark smoke starts to slow down. The temperature slowly creeps back up to normal. They rush to set up a simple Faraday cage using silver kitchen utensils and wires. Hopper and Joyce hurry inside to help. ELEVEN (exhausted) It's now or never! Steve and Hopper help drag Nancy, still convulsing occasionally, inside the makeshift Faraday cage. As they move her into the cage, the black smoke continues to spill from her mouth, now attracted to the cage. Joyce throws a switch, electrifying the cage. The black smoke is trapped inside, sparking and writhing, unable to escape. Nancy gasps for air as the possession ends. She's weak, but alive. Eleven catches her and helps her sit down, hugging her tightly. MIKE (reassuring) It's over. You're safe now, Nancy. Everyone watches intently as Hopper carefully opens the Faraday cage and captures the black smoke inside a glass container, sealing it with duct tape. MAX What do we do with it now? L...
