[ The story spun for the police's benefit is clearly bullshit. The older teens and the kids agree not to say anything at the hospital, even if it means waiting until Eddie is out and feels better (Steve privately wonders how the fuck Hargrove survived a sixteen-inch tentacle busting through his chest cavity, but whatever), and it feels kind of appropriate for Steve to approach Eddie alone. Robin wants to come but he refuses, it's hard to explain but between themselves and Henderson there's some kind of link there that Steve doesn't want to share with the masses. Eddie got it, before.
He knocks on the door, calling ahead. The nurse said the patient may be sleeping, he's on intensive painkillers for his leg, and Steve vividly remembers Dustin describing it in gory, awe-struck detail. ]
