Summary
Phil Callahan has made a large variety of strange arrests in his time working as a cop for Hawkins, Indiana. Daylight skinny-dippers; a small group of old ladies who’d attempted to rob the corner shop with their umbrellas, a guy who’d stolen a total of eighteen gnomes from his suburban neighborhood.
But pulling over Max Mayfield driving her brother’s Camaro at the ripe age of thirteen was pretty insane. Sure, kids will be kids and kids will be crazy. Until Steve Harrington crawled out of the backseat, clutched his knees and horror-movie hurled blood all over his boots and shit got crazier.
That took it from a minor concern to oh, fuck. Callahan has to take this kid to a hospital.

Summary
It was Amy she had a lot of fun nights with while she worked for EMILY's List. It was Amy whose arms she fell asleep in during the DNC of 1998. In between that, it was Amy who held her hair back when she threw up after meeting John Hoynes at a charity event in Texas; Amy who held her through it, who talked her down and brought her home, and Amy who she never wanted to speak to again after that night.
Amy is there through the aftermath of that one night with Hoynes.
