Stranger Things Season 3 Why Dustin Has No Teeth Again
Stranger Things 2
Chapter One: Suzie, Do You lot Copy?
The long wait is over, Stranger Things fans! Nosotros're back in Hawkins, the weirdest fictional town in Indiana outside of Pawnee.
Merely showtime, a short prologue from Russia, where some scientists neglect spectacularly at breaching the dimensions. Recall their faces because y'all better believe nosotros will exist seeing them again. Subsequently that curious opening, we move to the Summer of 1985 where Hawkins seems surprisingly normal from the lack of mortal peril.
Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) behaves as shut to a regular teenager as she can, using her powers to pull pranks and slam doors instead of saving the world. The snazzy Starcourt Mall has opened and while Steve (Joe Keery, hilarious as always) at present works there, and the kids are crazy for information technology, it's crippled downtown. Nancy notices the effect at her new chore at The Hawkins Post, only her sexist editors treat her like a maid while giving Jonathan (Charlie Heaton) more respect every bit the paper'south photographer. The biggest change, though, is that teenage hormones are now raging, with near of the main couples from last season still going strong.
I couple is going a niggling too strong for Chief Jim Hopper (David Harbour, turning the surly dial to, um, you become the joke) who's now obsessed with both Magnum P.I. and the amount of time his adoptive daughter spends sucking face with Mike (Finn Wolfhard).
Hopper seeks parenting advice from Joyce (Winona Ryder), who counsels him to act reasonably with Eleven and Mike while dodging his longing looks and invitations to dinner. To the consternation of Jopper fans everywhere, Joyce nevertheless mourns Bob (Sean Astin) and doesn't seem quite set up to date yet. Hopper understands but takes his frustrations out on Mike afterwards on, preferring threats to calm discussion.
The swirl of hormones also leaves Will and Dustin a niggling out of sorts. 1 suspects Will will never exist interested in girls, merely Dustin — not wanting to be left out — swears he met a great daughter named Suzie at science camp. Though the gang doubts her beingness, he builds a radio tower to communicate with her and accidentally picks up a mysterious Russian message. In the midst of Reagan's Cold War America, Dustin goes on high alert.
Of course, this being Hawkins, that's not the only disturbing thing bubbling nether the surface. The boondocks suffers a massive unexplained power outage, Joyce's magnets have stopped sticking to the refrigerator, and the town rats scurry toward a mysterious force at the abandoned Brimborn Steelworks. The rats start exploding in a truly disgusting scene.
Volition (Noah Schnapp) senses the mysterious force as goosebumps form on his cervix on a hot summer day. He doesn't want to acknowledge it, but he knows the Mind Flayer stirs. And information technology'south found its new target in Billy (Dacre Montgomery), who has spent the summertime trying to seduce Mrs. Wheeler during his lifeguard stint at the community pool. On the way to meeting her for a rendezvous at the Motel 6 (sexy!), he crashes near the steelworks and gets sucked screaming within. The Mind Flayer has found a new host and now nothing in Hawkins is prophylactic from its clutches, including our intrepid heroes.

Other observations:
- Maya Hawke (girl of '90s icons Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman) is a delight in her debut as Steve's new Scoops Ahoy co-worker, Robin. It's almost uncanny how much she sounds like her mother and definitely wins the award for best new character.
- Though it probably won't last long, it's nice to see Eleven beingness happy afterwards all her by trauma. Her bedroom fifty-fifty received an upgrade from its barebones state last flavour.
- Did I rewind the Jopper hand grab and his longing look more than one time? Why, yep I did. Did I practice it five or six times? Maybe. Merely my Netflix business relationship knows.
- As usual, the show is filled with homages to various '80s movies and TV shows, just I particularly enjoyed Jonathan falling over as he put on his pants similar Michael J. Fox did in Back to the Future.
—Lauren Morgan
Chapter 2: The Mall Rats
Baton survives the Mind Flayer's attack, but only similar Will in season 2, he's non the same. Reality becomes distorted equally he suffers from vehement and disturbing visions. At his lifeguard task, his skin scalds in the sun showing the brute within him still hates the heat.
He isn't the only one under the Mind Flayer'due south command. Bored past the menial piece of work she's been doing, Nancy takes Jonathan to investigate a tip from Mrs. Driscoll, who has defenseless a crazy, diseased rat. They run across the rat for themselves only go out earlier it explodes and slithers from its cage.
In other upsetting news, Eleven and Mike hit a rocky patch as Hopper'southward threats take effect (just what did he say to the poor child?) and Mike stands Eleven up. Confused by Mike's squirrely behavior, Eleven seeks out romantic counsel from Max (Sadie Sink), who takes her to Starcourt for a shopping montage right out of an '80s moving picture. The scene seems designed to show off the set more than anything else (and it does match my retentiveness of an '80s mall), but Max has a betoken in showing the sheltered girl how to notice herself away from her young man.
A confused Mike likewise winds upward at Starcourt along with Will and Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin) as they endeavor to observe Eleven a gift she'll like (and he tin can afford). He runs into Eleven and, fed up with his inability to explain himself, Eleven takes Max's communication and dumps him. She and Max laugh about it as they escape on the charabanc, merely poor Mike looks like he just got hit by one.
Such news would usually thrill Hopper, only he suffers a romantic setback of his own. Afterwards finally convincing Joyce to go to dinner just every bit friends (though he'south definitely got romance on the brain), she stands him up. Hopper stumbles drunk and footling heartbroken past the restaurant bar, bumping into the Terminator lookalike (Andrey Ivchenko) from the season's Russian prologue.
And what did Joyce stand our loyal police main up for? The damn magnets! She's noticed that they've stopped beingness, well, magnetic and abandons both piece of work and her dinner plans for an impromptu lesson in magnetic theory from Mr. Clarke. Though Joyce is often correct in her suspicions, the magnet plot seems really kooky even for her. How quickly did she get all those library books earlier abandoning piece of work entirely? An hour? Maybe two?
While the romance in the episode suffers, the bromance is as potent as ever as Steve and Dustin reunite and attempt to decode the Russian bulletin Dustin heard. Steve's co-worker Robin has a better ear and deciphers information technology herself, though Steve later realizes that the message didn't come from Russia but Starcourt itself.
The episode ends on a disturbing note as Baton kidnaps a young man lifeguard named Heather and delivers her to the Mind Flayer. Whatsoever has happened to Billy, he's in deep and only getting more than dangerous.
Other observations
- Cary Elwes makes his first appearance as Mayor Larry Kline in a role that honestly seems better suited to another blonde '80s icon, John Schneider. The town folk aren't as well happy with Mayor Kline considering Starcourt's opening has really killed businesses downtown.
- After her somewhat adversarial handling of Max last flavor, it's squeamish to see 11 become friends with her, though information technology's curious she'south still not supposed to exist out in crowds. Is she even enrolled in school?
- Which was funnier? David Harbour'south pronunciation of Chianti or Natasha Lyonne'southward pronunciation of cockroach on Russian Doll?
- Will repeatedly asking if they could play D&D now was both hilarious and familiar to anyone who's been stuck in a mall far longer than they'd like.
- Robin asking Steve, "How many children are you friends with?" was my favorite line of the episode.
—Lauren Morgan
Chapter Iii: The Example of the Missing Lifeguard
After breaking upwardly with Mike, Xi regrets her rashness until she spies on Mike using her powers and discovers him acting like your basic teenage male child. But a sleepover game leads her and Max to choose Billy as another spying target. This time the results are terrifying as Eleven sees Billy kidnap Heather and hears her claret-curdling screams. Back at Max'south business firm, they notice a tub filled with melted ice bags and a encarmine lifeguard'due south whistle.
As the sky opens for a massive, episode-long downpour, the other investigations around town go on to pick upwards steam. At Starcourt, Steve, Dustin, and Robin notice the coded words in the Russian message stand for various places in the mall and that the loading dock is unusually well-armed for a suburban mall. Nancy seems to be onto something equally well, but Tom (Michael Park), the editor-in-principal, just dismisses her findings. Jonathan would rather not get fired over it but withal follows her equally she pushes on and discovers Mrs. Driscoll eating fertilizer like a crazed rat.
Meanwhile, Joyce finally shows upward at Hopper's cabin, and while he'south furious at her, he gets fatigued into her magnetic (pun intended) web. He breaks into the boarded upwardly Hawkins Lab to prove to her that the people who endangered Volition are truly gone. After their earlier bickering, they have a heart-to-centre where he reveals he knows Joyce is planning to move out of town. He confesses that he's been doing everything he tin can to make her feel safe and wants her to know that in that location are people in Hawkins, namely him, who really care about her. This lovely conversation gets interrupted when they realize they aren't solitary and Hopper gets ambushed by Grigori, the mysterious Russian Arnold Schwarzenegger lookalike from the restaurant.
After fighting with Mike and Lucas over their daughter obsession, Will bikes home in the pelting and in a eye-breaking moment destroys Castle Byers. Equally he does, he gets another awareness from the Mind Flayer and when Mike and Lucas come to apologize, he tells them information technology's returned.
Eleven and Max continue their sleuthing only to find Heather hasn't turned up for work at the puddle. When they rails her downward at her house, they discover Billy and Heather at dinner with her parents, ane of whom is Nancy'due south boss, Tom. Billy gets the suspicious girls to leave by acting as normal as he can. As before long as he does, the terror starts for Heather'southward parents, who become the Mind Flayer's next victims.
Other observations
- What I wouldn't have done for a cameo past Matthew Rhys or Keri Russell from The Americans somewhere in the Russian plot.
- It'due south been a subtext that Will might be gay, merely when Mike pointed out he didn't like girls during their fight, nosotros got farther suggestion that he really could be. And though Noah Schnapp hasn't quite had the showcase office he did last season, he was admittedly heartrending as Will struggles with his growing pains.
- There has been a lot of grouse between Joyce and Hopper, only when they placidity down and just talk, information technology's obvious why people take shipped them for years.
- Even though Billy and Max characteristic prominently in this flavor's plot, the show really hasn't plant a way to brand their relationship with each other compelling. Information technology would be nice to understand why Max cares at all nigh her bully of a stepbrother.
—Lauren Morgan
Chapter Four: The Sauna Exam
Though Billy has thrown Max and the still suspicious Eleven off his trail, the gruesome flaying of Heather's parents show he's equally unsafe as ever. Before the girls can alert anyone to their fears about Billy, the boys call a lawmaking ruby based on what Will has sensed. Though at that place is a lot of clumsiness between Mike and Eleven equally Will describes what being a host to the Heed Flayer feels similar, the gang realizes that Baton still poses a serious threat to them all.
Despite being nether the Listen Flayer'southward control as well, a visibly injured Tom fires Nancy and Jonathan, who've been unknowingly pursuing the Heed Flayer through their investigation of the likewise flayed Mrs. Driscoll. Their firing opens a rift between them equally Nancy realizes Jonathan doesn't confront the same sexism she does and he realizes she doesn't know how hard opportunities are to get when you don't come up from a cushy middle-class background. After some well-timed actual parenting by Mrs. Wheeler, Nancy decides to forge ahead on her own.
Meanwhile, Joyce somehow gets Hopper back to his cabin where he wakes upwards completely naked and visibly bruised. Just who took off his clothes remains a mystery merely ane Hawaiian shirt, some detective work, and a few well-placed punches to the former Dread Pirate Roberts'southward face reveals that his attacker works for Starcourt and there are more than nefarious plans for the town in store.
Back at Starcourt itself, Robin acquires the mall's blueprints and the grouping recruits Lucas's sister Erica (Priah Ferguson) to climb through the ductwork to the loading dock. Erica remains a walking quote machine but her inclusion seems more than similar fan service than logical plotting because her young age. Nevertheless, Erica succeeds and they discover vials of glowing dark-green goo before plummeting to the mall'south depths every bit the room they are in turns out to exist an lift.
Steve and visitor are not the only ones in peril. After stalking Billy at the community pool, the gang traps him in the sauna once the pool closes. Knowing the Mind Flayer hates heat, they turn upwards the temperature, merely things become haywire when Billy escapes. Knowing she's the one matter standing betwixt the Listen Flayer and full domination, Billy starts choking Eleven. Mike comes to her rescue and she uses the last of her strength to throw Billy through a brick wall.
That doesn't stop him as he escapes and rejoins Heather dorsum at the steelworks where their true handiwork reveals itself. For while the gang has been trying to defeat Baton, he's been assembling an army of the Flayed. And it'due south gotten very big.
Other observations:
- Cara Buono'southward role equally Mrs. Wheeler has been rather thankless, merely the conversation with Nancy was a dainty showcase for the onetime Mad Men actress.
- Xi'due south "I make my own rules" battles Erica's "Y'all can't spell America without Erica" for the episode's all-time line, though Steve confusing Gumbo for Gumby may be a runner-upwards.
- While Max rectified 11'south missing Wonder Adult female noesis, someone really needs to have the poor girl on a roller coaster.
- Okay, and so just who took off Hopper'due south clothes and what exactly did Joyce see when information technology happened? Season 3 really is the season of shirtless Hopper in all his dad bod glory.
—Lauren Morgan
Chapter Five: The Source
Storylines are starting to converge in Hawkins, Ind.! Later Nancy realizes that the terrible thing she just witnessed happening to Mrs. Driscoll looks oddly similar to that terrible thing she witnessed happening to Will last year, she and Jonathan track down the kids to make sure they're okay. Together, they figure out that Mrs. Driscoll's freak out happened at the same fourth dimension Baton was in the sauna, and we have some other hive mind-type situation on our hands. They too realize there's no way Billy and Mrs. Driscoll are the only two possessed — Heather, Tom, and who knows how many more must be part of the Flayed too. Because they've seen a Flayed or two before, they chop-chop come to the determination that stopping the Flayed won't solve their bug — they demand to stop the Mind Flayer at the source.
The group heads back to the infirmary in hopes of getting Mrs. Driscoll to pb them there. Unfortunately, when Nancy and Jonathan reach her room, she's gone, lots of hospital staff are dead, and they discover a possessed Tom and Bruce — Worst Co-Worker in the World — causing the trouble. Later on a pretty harrowing fight, Nancy and Jonathan impale Tom and Bruce…who proceed to completely melt then conjoin to form a slightly smaller version of that creepy flesh monster thing. And so, um, that'due south not a dandy evolution.
Meanwhile, Hopper and Joyce are hightailing it out of Hawkins. While checking out all of the locations Mayor Kline has sold to Starcourt, they arrive at Hess Farm only to notice two Russians working on something in a hugger-mugger underground bunker (so many bunkers!). Subsequently again fighting off our Big Russian Friend Who Rides a Motorcycle, Hopper and Joyce grab i of the engineers, Alexei, hoping for some answers, and abscond. They deal with their motorcar breaking down in the middle of the woods, a language bulwark, hiking without a plan while being tailed by the Big Guy, and sexual tension, all before Hopper confiscates an '80s motion-picture show villain'south xanthous convertible and seeks out the one person he knows who speaks Russian: That'south right, you lot guys, paranoid ex-announcer Murray Bauman is dorsum.
Here's hoping that Murray can help Hop and Joyce figure out what the Russians are upwards to chop-chop, because Steve, Dustin, Robin, and Erica — you know, the people really trapped in a secret Russian bunker — could use the help. This crew finally gets out of the lift but to find themselves in an elaborate maze at a hole-and-corner facility. Their program is to find the comms room where the surreptitious signal they translated is being broadcast from in hopes of reaching someone from the outside world. When they find the room (information technology is a journeying), Steve takes downwards a Russian officer, which honestly, what a victory for our Steve Harrington. The celebration is brusk-lived though, as the team realizes they've stumbled into the room where the behemothic laser machine is opening the Gate. Dustin and Steve are, to say the least, alarmed.
Other observations:
- Mike and Eleven making up over a pocketbook of M&Ms in the hospital waiting room is such a pure teen beloved story moment and my common cold, dead centre can barely take it!
- "I only look forward to you never doubting me again." Nancy Wheeler is a goddamned hero, people.
- Clearly, the Stranger Things team realized that Steve and Dustin are a pairing that works and their irrefutable chemistry is in one case again showcased equally Robin and Erica question why the Russians would have a super secret bunker in Hawkins, and the guys hang back because, oh, they know why the Russians are in Hawkins, and they discuss it without having to finish a full sentence.
- "JOYCE, DRIVE!"
—Maggie Fremont
Chapter Half dozen: The Altogether
Now that Dustin and Steve have seen firsthand that the Russians are opening the Gate, they know they demand to go the hell out of this bunker and tell someone immediately. Before they can properly convey the severity of the situation to Robin and Erica, they're made and in the melee that ensues, Steve and Robin sacrifice themselves to let Dustin and Erica to escape through an air duct. STEVE HARRINGTON FOR EVERYTHING, YOU GUYS! Not but is he brave, not only does he take his annual chirapsia (this time at the hands of Russian interrogation officers — and yous thought Billy was bad!), simply he also displays some very touching character development when Robin reveals she sat behind him in history class but he was besides much of an ass to e'er find her. Steve knows he was an ass, he'south learning that beingness popular doesn't go yous far, and he kind of liked existence the "schmuck" who was "slinging" ice cream side by side to her all summer. Aw, Steven.
Thankfully, Dustin and Erica return with a giant electric prod to rescue our bonding ice foam scoopers, just equally the Russians drug them in hopes of discovering who their employers are and how they got into the base — which, past the fashion, Steve and Robin take been telling them. The Russians just don't want to accept that 2 Scoops Ahoy employees stumbled upon their spy code, cracked information technology, and accidentally made their style into what is supposed to be a base congenital by masterminds. Similar, I become it, only that's the truth, comrades!
Speaking of the Russians, Hopper, Joyce, and Murray are trying to get data from Alexei, who refuses to speak until he gets a few Whoppers and a 7/11 Slurpee. After Alexei plays tough, Hopper calls the guy's bluff, giving him the opportunity to escape, knowing he won't accept it because he'due south smart plenty to realize he's safer with them than with his Russian comrades, who will surely kill him for getting captured. Hopper's right because OF COURSE HE IS, THAT DREAMBOAT. In one case Alexei starts spilling the deets, Hop and Joyce realize the Russians have built a motorcar that is reopening the Gate as they speak (the machine would but work in Hawkins considering the Gate was still healing from the terminal time information technology was opened). Hopper calls the secret number Dr. Owens gave him to ask for military fill-in in Hawkins — but Joyce refuses to sit down around and wait. They're headed back to Hawkins to save their kids.
It's just in fourth dimension, too, considering those kids are going to demand some assistance. After El saves Nancy from being devoured by that flesh monster, the squad regroups. It takes some time and a whole pile of bloody tissues, simply eventually, El locates Baton and decides the best grade of activeness is to attempt to admission his memories, like she did with her mom, and then that they can locate the Source. It works, and El sees the Flayed gathering at the steel manufactory, only it backfires. She finds herself in a version of the cabin lonely with Possessed Billy, who informs her that the Mind Flayer'southward big plan is to employ this monster to destroy her, so all of her friends, and so the unabridged world. Cool, cool, cool. Don't even worry about the fact that all of the Flayed have started to melt and join together to form one giant monster. Zip TO Run across HERE.
Other observations:
- Erica believes everything Dustin tells her about what'southward gone downward in Hawkins over the past few years, EXCEPT for the fact that her brother had any office in it. In that location are but some things a girl tin't fathom.
- I will never hear "Neutron Trip the light fantastic" and not recall of Hopper'due south smug face in the background as Joyce and Murray realize he was dead on well-nigh Alexei needing them.
- Fearing for her rubber, Mike blows up at his friends and sister and admits that he loves Eleven and is scared of losing her again. That's correct, he said "honey" and everybody heard information technology.
—Maggie Fremont
Affiliate Seven: The Bite
Murray Bauman is a true hero for our times. In season 2 of Stranger Things, he forced Nancy and Jonathan to face up their feelings and in flavor 3, he one time once again sniffs out the sexual tension in the room and says exactly what everyone is thinking: Could Joyce and Hopper simply have sex already? Honestly, the fact that these two oasis't even kissed yet remains the greatest mystery of this show, which is really maxim something since we're dealing with a portal to another dimension on the reg.
Alas, there is no time for smooching. As they race dorsum to Hawkins, Alexei explains how to destroy the machine currently opening the Gate. Information technology involves Planck's Abiding, two people turning keys, and a special job for Murray that will guarantee the auto is completely destroyed (although that comes with a word of alert: anyone near the machine at that time volition turn to dust — something to constrict away for after, I'm sure). Once at the Hawkins Fun Fair, Joyce and Hopper go off in search of their kids (this search includes hand-holding while on the Gravitron, bless us all) merely once Mayor Kline sees they're dorsum in town, he calls in the Russians. Our Big Guy, Grigori, shoots and kills poor Alexei on sight, and has a shootout with Hopper inside the Fun House. Grigori survives Again, merely Hopper escapes with one of the Russians' walkies, which proves useful immediately since they overhear that the Russians are closing in on some children at Starcourt Mall. Their kids are in trouble!
Trouble is an understatement. Thanks to Eleven'due south trip into Baton's memories, the Mind Flayer knows she'due south in the cabin and sends his now gigantic flesh monster to detect and impale her. They do their best to fortify the cabin, just boarded up windows are no match for melted people tentacles! Eventually, i latches on to 11'due south leg — her friends free her, simply she'south suffered a big injury. They head to the grocery store in hopes of finding bandages and other resources that might assist (Lucas makes sure they catch some fireworks for backup the next fourth dimension they see the monster). As they try to set El'due south wound, a familiar voice comes over the walkie talkie: Information technology'south Dustin!
Dustin and Erica manage to become a nevertheless very drugged Steve and Robin out of the cloak-and-dagger bunker and into an evening showing of Back to the Time to come to expect out the Russians on their tail. Dustin tin only get part of his code red message to his friends at the grocery shop, but he badly needs some backup, since after the movie lets out, Dustin, Steve, Robin, and Erica are left all alone in the mall with some armed Russians closing in on them. Thankfully, El uses her powers to locate Dustin and the grocery store team arrives simply in time for El to, you know, casually throw a car across the mall anteroom and have out all the Russians as if they were bowling pins.
A massive download of what the two groups have been up to ensues (poor Robin, it'south a lot to take in!). The family unit reunion is interrupted when Eleven collapses to the ground in pain. Her leg! The seize with teeth! It'southward really bad! AND THERE IS SOMETHING MOVING INSIDE OF It. So, that tin can't be good.
Other observations:
- Everything with Steve and Robin has been a highlight this flavour. Their attempt to understand the plot of Back to the Hereafter is glorious, but the shining moment is really their middle-to-centre in the bath. Steve confesses his feelings for Robin, but Robin'southward gay — she was scared to tell Steve lest information technology mess up their friendship. Simply it doesn't, you guys! Of course it doesn't. Steve does, however, have some notes on his friend having a thing for Tammy Thompson of all people. She's a dud, he says!
- Mike apologizing to 11 for beingness possessive and jealous is such a mature motion. Squeamish growth, Mike!
- I will never get tired of watching Hopper going down that slide to escape the Fun House — amen.
- "How many times do I have to tell yous with the depression bombardment?!" Steve & Dustin 4Eva!
—Maggie Fremont
Chapter Viii: The Battle of Starcourt
Finally, the band's back together! Hopper and Joyce (and Murray) roll into Starcourt Mall just in time for Hopper to lookout man his daughter gather all of her strength and utilise her powers to pull that piece of the mankind monster out of her ain body. Hi, Dad! After, Eleven tells Hop that she just needs to recharge earlier fighting again, but information technology becomes clear that Eleven'south powers are somehow gone — the girl tin't even shell a Coke tin can with her listen. Simply nosotros take zero time to unravel that mystery — near as soon as this reunion starts, our groups have to split up over again.
Later a bawling good day with their kids, the adults head into the Russian base to blow up the automobile and close the Gate, which would and so cut off the Mind Flayer from his monster, who'southward still searching for Eleven in all its melted people glory. Since Dustin and Erica are old pros at sneaking around the ventilation ducts of that place, their crew — heretofore known as the Scoop Troop — brand their manner to Cerebro, which will requite them plenty of a signal so that they can communicate with the adults once they go hugger-mugger. Everybody else will go to Murray's fortress to hide from the monster.
Well, that's the program anyway. Once Nancy hops in the auto to drive them to safety, they realize someone stole the ignition cablevision. That someone was Billy, menacingly sitting in his car at the other end of the mall parking lot. So, back inside the mall it is! Of course, this means they're sitting ducks. The monster wastes no time in showing upward, crashing through the Starcourt ceiling and terrorizing Eleven and her friends.
The adults' plan isn't going exactly as they hoped either. Afterwards Hopper guns down some officers and takes their uniforms, Murray (excuse me, Bald Eagle) gets his job washed with an assist from Dustin and Erica, but when Hop and Joyce reach the vault with the keys, Murray doesn't have Planck's Constant correct and they can't open it. But Dustin's listening in and do you know who knows Planck's Constant? Dustin's girlfriend Suzie. She is real, she calls him Dusty Bun, and before she gives him the number, she makes him sing the theme song to The Neverending Story on the radio so everyone tin can hear.
The number works, simply just as Hop and Joyce are about to plough their keys, the Goon Who Will Not Die returns for one last showdown. He and Hopper fight out on the platform adjacent to the car. When Hopper kills Gregori past throwing him against the car, things start to become haywire and Hopper is trapped on the platform.
The kids really need the Gate closed, like, now. Baton captures El and calls the monster to finally put an stop to her. Nancy and Co. pelt the monster with Lucas' fireworks and El, with no powers, has to rely on her humanity to stop Baton. She reminds him of the memory she saw of his mother, of who he really is — and it works. Billy protects El from the monster and winds upward sacrificing himself.
Down below, Joyce has a belt on i key and her paw on the other. Knowing he won't survive the machine'south explosion, Hopper gives her a tearful, knowing nod and Joyce turns the keys, blowing upwards the machine, turning some Russians nearby into dust, closing the Gate, and stopping the Mind Flayer and his monster. Dr. Owens finally arrives with the U.S. military to do impairment control, Joyce reunites with her kids, and Eleven stands there in the mall parking lot looking for Hopper, simply he is gone.
Three months later…
The Byers are leaving Hawkins and Xi is moving with them. At that place are lots of bawling goodbyes: Jonathan and Nancy know this won't break them after all they've been through; Xi tells Mike she loves him, too; Will vows to never join another D&D party; everyone hugs farewell and it is all very, very distressing! While packing up Hopper's things, Joyce finds the speech she helped him write for his heart to center with Eleven, simply it turns out he wrote his own spoken communication to her, which Xi finally reads. If yous want to know what true emotional whiplash feels similar, watch the stop of Stranger Things in which we get from scary melted people monster to a dad telling his daughter how difficult it is for him to accept she's growing up, how much she changed his life, and how much he loves her. Anyway, I'll be over in a corner, bawling.
But what is this? In a post-credits scene, nosotros head to a prison in snowy Russia where a guard refers to one prisoner we never see as "The American" (please be Hopper, please be Hopper), and then pulls out another prisoner, merely to toss him in a cage with…A DEMOGORGON.
Other observations:
- Steve and Robin are BFFs and three months later they get a new job together at a video rental store, all cheers to Robin convincing Keith (ex-arcade employee) that what Steve lacks in motion picture cognition, he makes up for in his ability to amuse the ladies. I miss hanging out with Steve and Robin already!
- Everyone having to mind to Dustin and Suzie sing The Neverending Story vocal while the fate of the world is at stake is ane of the funniest moments of the unabridged series.
- Joyce finally agrees to a engagement with Hopper, although he needs to schedule it around his Miami Vice date with El. Joyce, y'all should've locked Hopper downward when you had the chance!
- "Merely please, if you don't mind, for the sake of your poor old dad, keep the door open three inches." No large deal, just crying again.
