Stranger things season 2 episode 1 paul
It definitely felt like a backdoor pilot for a potential spin-off as it was so disconnected to everything else. That was a… strange episode, to say the least.
I think they might also rob banks? Unclear.
She currently runs a gang that hunts down and murders ex-government agents who carried out the experiments. She had some great scenes with Hopper during her time in the cabin, but then we get a very weird episode where she finds her long-lost “sister,” another lab experiment who can make people see visions that aren’t there. While I understand the desire to keep her separated from the main cast due to the obvious implications of her being wanted by the government, it made her feel very isolated when the chemistry between her and the rest of the cast was part of what made season 1 work. The only nagging thing really “wrong” with season 2 of Stranger Things is probably how Eleven was handled this time around. For as much as people ended up liking her character and turning her into a meme after season 1, it took a measure of restraint to leave Barb dead and not resurrect her in a dream or as a monster or anything like that, instead giving Nancy the task of finding justice for her by allowing her parents to find some measure of comfort when the cause of her disappearance and death is (mostly) revealed. Speaking of Barb, I was so glad to see that Stranger Things avoided “Boba Fett-ing” her and playing into fan service by bringing her back in some form, even though it wouldn’t have made sense. Dustin remains the most charismatic character on the show, adults included, and he really shined this season, in part because of his pairing with Steve, who went from season 1 douche to a fan-favorite this time around.
