“Put Ted in jail, throw away the key” LMAOOOO

Golladan

The point of Eight was to take the sun away from Spartan's face (it went away while they were discussing Eight).

mél ౨ৎ

let’s gooo the best episode of the show

Michael Weiner

I’m so looking forward to seeing this one again! With S & P!

MargoP

Rewatching previous seasons after this is *chefkiss*. You can spot the details and the foreshadowing that you missed in the first place

Kim Elsner

Yay! Finally some answers for you guys! 🎉

Katie

this is the episode where you really start to get some answers so i’m really excited for you all to finally see it lol

AkiZzu

Another early upload. As happy as I am about that - I am also very conflicted. I really want to watch it right now, but it‘s already midnight here. Which means if I‘m watching it now, I will only have about 4 hours of sleep left… BUT it‘s a HUUUGE episode, so f** it, seems like it‘s gonna be a short night for me :D

Cal

Lets Gooo!!!

Foof

Love the reaction and the constant debate about who said what lol

Chishiya

Millie does such an amazing job like…what a great actress

Katie

i thought i’d be able to watch this one with you guys before i go into work and then remembered the episodes are really long lmao

Veilsix

So glad this one blew you guys away! It was fun to watch the emotional rollercoaster you guys went on. Now you see why they needed those extra 40 minutes hehe. This episode finally establishes that everytime there is a strong enough psychic connection between the real world and the upside down, a tear is created. These tears are what we call gates. Most gates seem to heal slowly over time unless used. Also remember that 008 escaped well before the massacre. Henry and Eleven talk about her during one of their early conversations. When speaking of Eleven’s mom coming to find her, he says “this was when 008 was still with us.” I loved seeing the parents ganging up for the first time. I hope that comes into play eventually in the overall stranger things story. How cool are the transitions to and from the upside down getting? I loved the shot of the gangs on the bikes on both sides… and then the gangs looking up at each other from beneath each other. The stakes are growing! Nancy is at stake! We still have 2 people in the upside down! Two episodes left and the gang is split up between Russia, Utah, Hawkins, a secret underground desert lab, and upside down Hawkins! How are they ever gonna pull this one off!?!! Keep your eyes open. More is to be revealed. You have many answers but not all of them. As always it was a blast! See you for Chernobyl and HOTD!!!!!1!1!!1! PS some fun trivia but if you’re sharp eyed enough you will spot Eddie Munson himself telling Arya Stark to f*ck off at the gates of Winterfell when she finally returns home, not believing it’s her.

When Hopper reunited with Joyce, he rejoyced 😏

A.D

The familiarity that you spoke of Spartan that 01 had for Brenner, was he mentioned (during the Nancy/Creel house montage) that his mom was calling up doctors and all sorts of professionals to see to her son (01) because she was suspicious of him, so as a revenge he killed his mom. Then after the whole event when his dad got arrested, 01 got taken directly to the doctor he hoped to avoid, Brenner. So that's what he was referring to, but yeah we don't know how he got his powers. I think that's just one of those, you just accept it kind of things. Its a supernatural kinda show, these things just happen, the boy developed powers

Melanie Vine

If you think this episode is awesome, 8 and 9 are phenomenal 👏 I'm so excited 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

A.D

Also fun fact, the actor who plays the older 01 in the lab has also been playing Vecna the whole season in the full prosthetics and makeup, he even does the voice - he's too freaking talented

crispy chicken

Epic episode. So many things explained / tied in with each other: - Victor Creel's full story - One's backstory - Eleven's backstory and the creation of (probably) the first gate. - Vecna's identity and backstory. - Justin's explanation of Vecna being the Mindflayer's general. Effectively tying them together. - All the (small) portals explained. - How Vecna operates. - The time period of the upside-down. - Even Barb got tied in. I don't remember exactly, but I have a feeling the edited version is gonna have a lot of proving Pudgey's theories (and disproving they were Spartan's 😋 Looking forward to it 😄). Speaking of Spartan. When Steve was slinging ice cream or watching the "kids", didn't he say Steve was "not it", and was disappointing, and now all of sudden: "Steve is my boy!"? 😅

Golladan

"You guys nailed it, the upside down is a snapshot of the moment it was created. Which implies that the massacre at Hawkins lab happened the night of Will’s disappearance. " We know for a fact that is not the case. We know Will banished November 6, 1983. And from the tape Brenner pulled for the Nina Project we know the Massacre at Hawking's Lab happened on September 8, 1979. The events of season 1 happen after Eleven inadvertently reopened the gate when making contact with the Demogorgon during an experiment.

Loren

ST doing what it does best: kids on bikes saving the world! This is one of my favorite episodes and I'm so glad you're finally here. For me it's the best reveal so far. Now, I wish I had a friend like Dustin, so smart, so loyal, a real troop. Joyce and Murray came in clutch, that reunion was so nice, Hop needed that moment. The way we all thought Steve was going to get stuck and in the end it was Nancy...Steve being a king, Erika getting a flat tire, the connection to the first season, seeing how Will was able to communicate with Joyce, so much to comment on this episode that i would never end. I just love everything in this episode. Even the demogorgon was amazing 😅. Great reaction, I hope Spartan is feeling better and Pudgey you were very close, your theories were well thought. I can't wait for the next one. Lots of love ❤️❤️ PS: i do want Steve and Nancy together now, i love jonathan but my dear Steve deserves the love he wants.

Lyn Hurst

This episode is sooooo goood. I do think Pudgey called it first on 001 and then she got close to saying she thought he was Vecna right before the reveal. Yes, you came around Spartan. Henry/001/Vecna. The mindflayer has more explaining to go. This is my favorite Stranger Things episode. Although the next two are great.

Allison M Killen

the whole Vecna-Henry-001 reveal blew my mind when I watched this. It was crazy how well it all came together. I couldn't believe how well they tied in all 4 seasons!!!

Josh Gibson

Season 5 episode 1: The party are playing DnD at the Wheeler’s house, Dustin goes upstairs to get a can of Coca-Cola from the fridge, as he opens the can the fizzy drink sprays all over Dustin’s face. Spartan: “If Billy were here he would have opened that can so much better than Dustin did” 😂

Salma

What an epic episode!

Ellie

It was torture waiting for the next 2 episodes after finishing this one

Josh Gibson

This is not accurate we did not see the creation of the gate that hopper and Eleven closed at the end of season 2. I don’t know if I I’m allowed to give spoilers on here, so I can’t fully correct you, but know that the gate Eleven created here is not the gate from season 1 and 2.

Loren

i just laugh out loud 😂 small jokes matters

Vito Pagliuca

I still believe we have yet to find out the origins of 001's/Vecna's powers. They may explore that more hopefully in Season 5, or at least I hope they do. I think knowing more of the origins of 001 and why he does possess these powers would be super cool.

Malorie

This really was the ep that answered all the questions you’ve been asking this season and the show in general.

Josh Gibson

But that is one of the the main criticisms of Season 3. That a lot of the characters became too cartoonish Hopper with that sitcom-esque crazy persona when Joyce stood him up and dealing with Mike . And Steve became really stupid and the comic fool. Luckily they addressed this for season 4

JSM -Tac

Don’t sleep on Jonathan and Nancy and Jonathan prob gon be endgame they together in real life

Natalie-Anne

God I love this ep. Probably my favourite of all! Watching this in real time then having to wait for volume 2 was a unbearable wait 😅

Joshua Johnson

Can’t wait for the finale!

Sabina

GREAT EPISODE RIGHT 😍😍😍😍

Josh Gibson

Perhaps an unpopular opinion, but I like the fact that there was a wait for the last 2 episodes. It built up the hype. It allowed most of the audience to watch the bulk of the season at their own paces some Quick some not so quick and then everyone was ready for the 2 final episodes together and everyone was talking about it. It felt like event television again, like game of thrones episodes I hope they do the same with season 5

Ellie

Oh 100% looking back I’m grateful they split the season up and I hope they do for 5, but it was torture waiting

Joshua Johnson

Yeah this is not the same gate.. the flashback scenes with EL in Nina where she throws Henry through the gate is 1979. Four years before El opened the mother gate. There’s more info they’ll find out before the seasons over

Demented Avenger

I'm still convinced that Will saw Vecna in season 1. The shadow Will sees doesn't quite look like a Demigorgan.

Gemineye

Which is funny because then when El was taking the chip out of 001 and Spartan was saying he doesn't trust the guy Pudgey was still saying idk maybe, so they both put it together in different ways.

Salvador

“Does anyone know Morse code?” “Does SOS count?” Pudgey: “No” And I’m like what?

Salvador

“Thank god for Dustin and his brilliant mind” Eddie was like half of the reason they pulled that off. 😭

Kevo!

You two are so amazing I swear I love you two so much I can’t wait till you guys finish the greatest show of all time keep going guys!!!!!!!! THIS IS LITERALLY AN S TIER SHOW THE GREATEST SHOW EVER!!!!!

Golladan

Spartan: "Eddie you were our one nerd, we needed you" xD

Gemineye

Pudgey is in fight mode this reaction get your spartan sheild out lmao

Josh

Detective Pudgey right again

Ailene Evangelista

YAAAASSS this IS peak Stranger Things Spartan, I agree! I loved episode 4 but this one right here is the one that blew my socks off. Just brilliant and gave me chills! I had put together like Pudgey that the guy was #1 but the fact he was Venca/Henry too left me gagged omg

Daenerys Targaryen

I don't know if people realize how powerful 11 is. She didn't just kill her enemy; she opened a portal to a different dimension, banished him to that dimension, mangled him inside that new dimension, and closed the gate afterwards. The first time I saw this, it just blewwww my mind. This story is amazing.

Veilsix

You’re right I totally forgot eleven stayed with papa and Hawkins beyond the massacre.

Veilsix

I edited my message so as not to confuse them. I had the lore tumbled up in my brains.

Josh Gibson

Just a heads up there’s still a few things in your comment that are still wrong. A death does not have to occur for a gate to open. The season 1 gate opens because Ellen’s fear of seeing the demogorgon meant she lost control of her psychic powers and created a very powerful psychic wave that creates the gate Secondly, you still say the massacre at the lab happened the same night Will disappeared which is not the case.

Lyn Hurst

I remember in season 2 when Will was tapping morse code, Dustin was able to read it along with a cheat sheet, but SOS is pretty well known (not by me but those who use morse code).

Lise

Kudos to Pudgey, most of her theories were right and even the grandpa theory was close, it was about someone who lived inside this house. Interesting how Eleven beat 001 by looking for a "loving" memory rather than the anger he told her to use. That good old "love is stronger than hate" morality lol!

Jake

I think Pudgey has more total theories right but only because she spews them out like crazy lol. I bet you Spartan's batting average is higher

Mike

I'm not sure if I subscribe to the theory that 11 is outright stronger than 01/Vecna. To me it looks like the standard trope of fueling your power from anger and fear and sadness is strong, but fueling it with love is even stronger. They made a point of 01 telling 11 to use memories that angered, scared, or saddened her and in a 1v1 match with this method, 11 is strong, but 01 is far more practiced and stronger. But they show us that scene of her being born and the first words she hears are her mother saying "I love you" and as always love trumps hatred in the end. You see it in shows/tv a lot. Harry Potter touched on it a bit in the Goblet of Fire and Prisoner of Azkaban. I am absolutely blanking on other specific examples right now lol only other thing that comes to mind for some reason is Twitches of all things LOL And to be clear, I love the trope haha its cheesy but man it hits home.

Dani

The realization that Vecna was actually trying to low key groom Eleven into a child murderer.😔Even to the point where she trusted him. Diabolical. ALSO...the fact that Nancy has TRAUMA BONDS with both Jonathan and Steve is craaazy

Gemineye

I think from a storytelling standpoint them being number 1 and 11 in itself is purposeful and symbolic, meaning she is the same number as him in the new bracket. And from an in lore standpoint everyone including 1 himself has told her that she is more powerful. And from a logical standpoint the more they do the experiment the better they would get at it. With that said you’re right that she does use love and goodness at her strongest. I think it’s both. Like 1 can invade the mind and tear it apart, but el can shoot people through another dimension

Madison

I think 001's reference Spartan brought up where he sees Dr. Brenner and says to 011 that he was back to where he started with doctors who want to control him, was because of his Mom reaching out to psychiatrists and mental health hospitals because she saw something was going on with her son. He felt people around him were trying to control his true nature and that in the end, they weren't that perfect themselves. Great reaction as always and it's so fun seeing you guys love this series! Sad it's coming to an end.

AG

ahh i was so excited for this one and i was not let down! my power actually went out right when i got home to watch this today but i kicked up my hotspot on my phone and powered through lol. this might be my favorite episode too.

AG

and Spartan, leave Pudgey alone! lol let her have her wins, she’s made some really great guesses/theories this season.

NZ Hayley

So happy we finally made it to this episode, so good! I couldn’t believe it the first time I watched it, how they had managed to circle back and tie everything back to season 1 so seamlessly without making it too obvious that that’s what they were doing. This season starts out feeling so random with the whole Vecna thing, then you get here and it’s like ohhhhhhh 😮

Katie

i’m dying at yall arguing over who came up with what theories 😂😂

Josh Gibson

however on the other hand Eleven was able to create a large fully sustainable permanent gate with Psychic powers alone - and she certainly wasn't having loving happy memories when she did that. Conversely Vecna has to prey on vulnerable traumatized minds over a few days just to open a small gate.

JonSnow21

Top 3 greatest characters in fiction are Walter White , Michael Corleone and Ted wheeler .

Kirill D.

Guys, I don't know who guessed/predicted what. All I know is: Sun 2 - 0 Spartan

Joel Quinn

They definitely played around with the numbers here, 1 and 11, but aside from that, I always saw it as just trial and error, a natural mutation. It was bound to happen that someone as strong as 1 comes around, and what they hoped for was someone without the sociopathic tendencies and easier to control because they controlled everything from day 1 on. That boy was damaged goods; he had to start over. Vecna stated that they (his victims) are still with him, which kind of sounds like he might be getting stronger with more victims. I could see that. Eleven, on the other hand, taps into both sides: love and anger. At least that is how I see the scenes with her mother. She tapped into her own birth to get the full impact of her love and of the anger by taking her away in an instant. Maybe its still only the anger that feeds her power, but standing up against evil and for the good/love motivates her.

Golladan

Henry told her to use a memory that made her sad, but also angry. I think a memory of her birth and being taken away (how the hell does she even remember that?) probably qualifies as something that makes her sad and also angry.

Jessica Houser

Imagine waiting a month for the next episode! It was torture...ugh. Now we start the party! Remember 001 tells El he uses anger and sadness to pull his strength....but is that where she'll get hers? Thanks for the reaction!

Jackamoo

It WAS torture! I think it was closer to 5-6 weeks that we had to wait for the last 2 episodes!

Logan Arnold

Best episode of the entire series in my opinion! This single episode is the reason why season 4 is the best. All the previous episodes were good too, but the way everything comes together makes all of the previous 6 episodes elite as well

Lyn Hurst

She saw it through her mother's memories when she went to see her.

Nate Terry

I mean....Pudgey's "grandpa" theory wasn't really that far off....it WAS a family member that was Vecna. back in episode 4, when we first see the Victor Creel backstory, he just explains that his wife died, then his daughter died, he was about to die but the music pulled him back. He quickly said his son slipped into a coma and died shortly after then the scene moves on to other plot points and kinda glossed over that.

Adam Ramirez

Lmao you're guys' fight over theories is incredibly entertaining. This episode is so epic! Can't wait for you to finish the season!!!

Marcell

The gate that 11 creates in this episode is the one from season 1!! Eleven opened the gate to the upside down and started the events that started the show.

Meera ☾

Nope, they were two separate events. In the first season she opened the gate after being scared by a demogorgon in the sensory deprivation tank. What we see in this episode's flashback is a different gate, which El opened (and closed) to send Henry/001 to the upside down.

Meera ☾

Bruh “old, blind, dumb Victor” was so out of pocket 😭

Golladan

Pretty sure this was being shown through El's point of view, not her mother's. Also the massacre happened before she visited her mother.

Aaron Boone

These first 7 episodes were released all at once for us 2 year ago. And then they made us wait a little over a month for the final 2 “episodes” (more like movies)

Ghostcat

Spartan is Pudgeys number 1 hater man...

john

This pudgey is on Detective mode 150 percent brain capasity hahahahaa goodjob Pudgey.

2024-06-26 22:39:47 When you think that Brenner is good now, remember that - he cut her hair - he’s forcing her to wear a hospital gown, even outside of sessions - he’s kidnapped her - he has her imprisoned - he never “cared” until he had a problem to solve, and the only way he can solve her is by abusing her

Give peas a chance

Start Wars and LoTR come to mind. Both stories make good use of this trope. I agree with your comment.

Valcor

Couldn't disagree more with Spartan saying he prefers more episodes with shorter runtimes. I much prefer the movie like feel of having long episodes it makes every episode feel much bigger and more important.

Panashe Chibanda

I agreed, it purely depends on the show. If it’s a teen drama then I don’t mind 25 episode seasons. But if it’s a high quality, high budget series then I think 10-14 is fine.

Panashe Chibanda

Tbh I disagree. Cutting her hair is not that deep because it’ll grow back. You wear a hospital gown in hospitals and that’s not classified as a bad thing. The kidnapping and imprisonment thing is overblown. She’s a kid who doesn’t understand the severity of the situation. She wants to play with her friends and make out with Mike all day meanwhile Vecna is preparing to kill mankind. I also don’t think Brenner’s abusing her. She needs to reactivate her powers the same way she gained them, by going through those unique experiences. You’re caring too much about Elevens feelings and forgetting that mankind is at stake. I’m sure a little bit of trauma is worth saving billions of innocent people. With this mindset, everyone would be doomed.

BC

Except when the planet is dependent on it, and she willingly agreed to the stakes until her personal feelings toward Brenner got in the way.

Daria

Must be great to agree to the stakes and only later finding out that you’re back to being locked up by your abuser. Her consent was so informed, wasn’t it?
