Can someone walk me through this on buying a call option?

The option prices don't change when the market is closed.

Right, which means you can't buy options after hours, correct?

Correct. At open I expect the premium on that $85 strike will be >$120

Exactly what I was thinking. Thanks.

Options expire at the end of the day on the expiration day

So, it's the market price of the stock at close on Friday that matters?
