When the gate opened up he got cut in half, which is what he alluded to earlier in the season when telling Lucas what a first hangover feels like. Was something like ‘feels like your guts are being split in half’, caught it on a rewatch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said "did Jason just get cut in half?" and I had no idea what she was talking about. We rewound and saw it. Pretty gnarly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah for such a bastard character, you’d think they might savor his death a little more. But I suppose there was way more larger things happening then.

Hinted at by El's trip into her mind while she is in the hospital and the song: "I'd make a deal with God, and get him to swap our places". Also, Max is in a coma just like El and Vecna have to be after they exert their powers too much. The 'time jump' mentioned by the creators between seasons 4 and 5 will be the time needed by Vecna to recover and come back in Max's body. I don't think we are getting her back, unfortunately. Spoiler Think you're on the right track, but think it's going to be Mike (EDIT: LOL, meant Will) who becomes the next host. Max would be a high-impact choice, but also too obvious IMO.

Oregon Ducks Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 I thought this was supposed to be the last season? Either way, it was a good season. One of the best things about this show is the characters. The plot is only average but you care about the characters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it would be too, but apparently they are doing 1 more & there will be a time jump.. which is sorely needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing obvious....wait, I realize I brain-cramped lol Spoiler Meant to say Will. DOH! The reason why I favor this is it started with Will, and like Max, he is the only survivor (I guess you can add Nancy, but unlike those 2, she wasn't in Vecna's thrall for very long, while we see residual connections with Max still in a coma, and Will can still actively "feel" Vecna). The convenient part of this is it would eliminate the triangle between Mike - Will and Eleven - Mike. Had Mike - Will on my mind when I posted, oops at the slip.

MikeT14 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 I just finished. Have questions. Eddie’s death seemed pointless in the sense that I don’t get what it accomplished outside of it was the killing of a “main character”. Like why did he cut the rope? Go back? I don’t get why they went back to the prison? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like why did he cut the rope? Go back? How could they NOT kill him? He's the scape goat. Most of the town thinks the ground quaked because of his satanic rituals. He is the ONLY viable suspect for the Vecna murders. If he lives through this he is in deep deep hiding and the majority of what is expected to be a short season 5 is the gang helping to clear his name instead of focusing on the final bout with Vecna and the upside down. It was the right move to give the finale space to breath. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they deduced that if they weakened the monsters in the Russian prison, it would give the kids a better chance to defeat the big baddies back home.

For some reason I read the plan as "travel through the wormhole to get back to Hawkins instantly to help" which is just as silly but makes more sense.

I mean they were already FUBAR. I'm nitpicking, but it's the two things that bothered me in the episode at the end. Great season otherwise. I look forward to the final showdown.
