Also, Eleven starts bleeding from both nostrils and levitating. Yeah, the Demo-dogs attack them as Eleven damn near shuts the gate.
STRANGER THINGS SEASON 1 EPISODE 9 SKIN
After all, Will is skin and bones and that grip looked something gruesome.īut, eyebrow-raising moments aside, for the most part, things are easy peasy for Hopper and Eleven. For what was really stopping it from entering one of them and running off? We already saw that it has the power to increase its host strength. Making the fact everyone is all wide-mouthed, and Nancy chases after the shadow, so facepalm worthy. Not enough to really burn him, or set him on fire, but enough to startle the monster and not too long after, it exits Will. Hence why she grabs a wood poker, which is glowing hot, and just pokes will. Luckily, Nancy isn’t squeamish or one easily frightened by this yearly nonsense anymore. So seeing his brother look like something out of The Exorcist naturally doesn’t sit right with him.īut what starts as uncomfortable becomes scary when Will breaks a rope holding him down, Joyce goes to hold him down, and Will/Shadow Monster looks like he is going to strange or break Joyce’s neck. However, for Jonathan, he has to rely on Nancy for support because you know he is a little sensitive. Something that is easy for Joyce to do since she is pissed about Bob. Which means heating him up to the point it is no longer comfortable for the Shadow Monster to stay in him. To close the gate, first Will has to be exorcised. The Exorcism of Will Byers & Closing of the Gate: Will, Joyce, Jonathan

Also threatening their life since, as we learn, it seems once cut off from the hive master, the Demo-Dogs drop like flies – Dart too. Not these two quick snacks but this girl closing the gate and trapping their hive master. Pushing the idea Steve may end up like Bob and die a hero but, luckily for them, as Eleven was closing the gate, that is all the Demo-dogs cared about. For after setting fire to the center of the tunnel, helping out Eleven and Hopper temporarily, Steve expedited getting nearly everyone out. But, in the long run, he turned out useful. So, with Steve knocked out and Billy, Max takes Billy’s keys and they are off! With Steve only coming because Dustin insisted. A threat that needed to be done because he almost beat the hell out of Lucas. He will not be messing with her or her friends again. In fact, she talks to him the same way Neil talks to Billy to get her point across.

So he gets knocked out and Max, using some leftover knock out drug, handles Billy. Someone who Steve tries to handle but, as seen in season 1, Steve can’t take a punch.

Which gets slowed down by two things: The first being Steve not going for it and then Billy showing up. The kids plan on taking action and going to the center of all the tunnels and setting a fire. Possibly forever while Mike is stuck at Will’s house. Which especially sucks for Mike since he just saw Eleven and off she goes again.
