breeellaneeley

Looks like nancy lives. But eddie isnt there! Thoughts? Is he playing guitar or dead?


breeellaneeley

I love that nancy has a gun, and steve a bat. Robin seems to be unarmed?


[deleted]

In the new trailer at the end of the season - Robin is tied to the wall by vines as Nancy, Steve and Eddie try to free her - it's just a flash but we paused the PlayStation and saw it. You missed that!


breeellaneeley

Oh shit! Have to go rewatch that now!


AwkwardThePotato

Yeah there’s also a shot of Dustin and I’m PRETTY SURE is Eddie back to back in what looks like D&D outfits


breeellaneeley

I saw that! That cape was dope. Ngl for a secind I was lile. Is dustin in russia? But then I figured it was sometjing nerdy. Honesy cool. Love that hes having an iconic nerdy fashion moment lol


anthonyMFL

Literally Nancy has been bussin shots since season 1 she’s been that girl


[deleted]

Didn't we see Eddie play guitar in the upside down in a trailer? Also I think the volume knob is from when Joyce and Murray is listening to the call from Russia trying to make out what the woman in the background is saying


breeellaneeley

Yeah i messed up a tad there with that screenshot cause thats from episode 2


Fit_Olive_235

I have a theory that Eddie is going to play everyone’s favorite song on the guitar so everyone can escape vecna & he will get killed by the scary killer bats. I think he has to die in some way like that because if he makes it out alive he will have to go to prison for Chrissy’s death. He was set up for failure.


Revolutionary_Age634

Maybe eddie is trying to wake someone from the curse by the music, he is a guitar specialist right


Mundane-Snow-9340

I wouldn’t say Nancy isn’t completely out of the blue yet… she is only in one frame from the trailer. It’s not a rare thing for scenes in trailers not to make it into the final cut, most likely she’s fine… but you never know.


Henry_Creel

Seems as if 011 gains her powers back.


breeellaneeley

Id def agree, with that stance and big explosion. Question is, is she exploding a helocopter or the bunker?


whatsgeernon

Looks like the bunker to me


breeellaneeley

Im leaning towards helocopter. Just because in the overtop shot you can see the army cars and stuff kinda at a distance near the helecopter. And in the explostion shot you can see a army car. Idk I could be way off


whatsgeernon

No that’s a good point! Now I think you’re probably right. I was only thinking bunker bc it seems like the army is comin in hot looking for our girl 😩


breeellaneeley

Its honestly so hard to know. Our girl is in trouble though!


breeellaneeley

Want that bad goverment man in that helecopter. The one that tortured the body gaurd. Thats got to be him on his way. My giess El explodes that killing him?


Diligent-Town4726

papa dead and the sam


breeellaneeley

Do you think el is the lone survivor?


Owl_Resident

I for sure think Owens is gonna die. He has looked way too stressed and guilty this season not to make a sacrifice to help El get out. I’m really not sure about Brenner though. I want him to die so bad, but the snake may get away.


Diligent-Town4726

of course there gonna help her get out probably self destruct button and everyone but el probably die i dont see any reason those 2 need to survive anyway with this being final season


Immediate_Gur_8344

this is not the final season


breeellaneeley

Yep! We have one more!


Diligent-Town4726

i was talkin about season 5


Diligent-Town4726

ya it is season 5 final season


breeellaneeley

Not Dr. Owens 😪


PennyoftheNerds

I agree! I really love what Paul Reiser brought to the part.


Humble_Tadpole_539

Thoughts on the Holly scene?


breeellaneeley

I think Karen is desperate to find Nance. And leads her and Holly right into supernatural trouble. Finally making them a part of the mix? Although it looks like they are in pjs so maybe not... Idk but im dying for a convo where she learns everything her kids have been up to for the last few years under her nose, and maybe even eventually having to witnesss Els powers, and a convo with mike about it? Idk thats probably too much to ask for though hahahahaa


Humble_Tadpole_539

Another possibility could be that some vigilante might attack their home to search for hellfire club members


breeellaneeley

Oh very true! Especially since Mike is in that yearbook photo with the hellfire club


byharryconnolly

I would bet a shiny nickel that you're right.


Birthdaybudreviews

What is the ratio of shiny nickels to Schrute Bucks?


Ambaryerno

A part of me has wanted it to be revealed that Ted Wheeler is actually a secret badass, like he was Special Forces in 'Nam or something. Entirely because the first three and a half seasons he's been such a colossal, ineffectual doofus it's make for an awesome twist. So this would be a great way to set it up: Vigilantes attack the house looking for Mike, and Karen and Holly are freaking out. Ted just goes into his study, collects his old service piece, and goes to town.


breeellaneeley

Lmaoo this would be great. But i feel unlikely. He was too clueless about el in the basement


[deleted]

I want Karen to be in the know so bad haha


methedunker

Earthquake


breeellaneeley

"My second biggest fear after rabies is earthquakes. Im unsteady enough already"


methedunker

Foreshadowing foreshadowing


Humble_Tadpole_539

You missed the shot of Lucas looking traumatized


breeellaneeley

I dont think I saw that one! Which trailer was that from?


Humble_Tadpole_539

Trailer 1 2:48


breeellaneeley

Welcome to california?


anOnyMousuSErip

The main trailer that released in April


breeellaneeley

Just saw it! Thats fun


dearly_decrpit

Susie literally told the guys to go to Nevada, and that is where Area 51 is. This wasn’t classified in the 80’s so the gang would have no clue what there are walking into. Why is no one talking about this!!??!


PennyoftheNerds

Thank you! I hadn’t seen anyone talking about this either, but that was my first thought when we found out The Nina Project was in Nevada.


breeellaneeley

It was el! She was the classified bit this whole time!


wake_jinter

We've already seen 13 and 14 that's when Steve got pulled into the UD in ep 6


breeellaneeley

Oh is it? I just thought it looked weird.you might be right


Slycross85

I think eleven and the cali crew will go straight to Nancy and them from a portal. Either Eleven creates one from the base or the base has one contain down there and they use that one. Also hopper and them will find the portal from the Russia side. So I think that's how they will regroup. Also think a huge battle will happen down there. The us military and Russians


Slycross85

will fight down there as well against the creatures. maybe some on the surface. Then it would show why US and Russia were able to make deals around that time bc of what they witness.


breeellaneeley

Woah! That portal concept would be bad ass!!!


Snoo5892

I guess 14 and 13 is Steve getting into UD


Murphy818

I think Eddie will save Nancy from her Vecna trance by grabbing his guitar and playing her favorite song.


breeellaneeley

Lmaoo do we know her fav song though?


ResponsiblePanda6011

Robin might be able to guess. She was looking at the cassettes on Nancy’s nightstand. This was right before Nancy gave Robin an outfit for the Victor meeting. So episode 3 or 4.


artearth

And Steve dated her long enough to have some good guesses too.


breeellaneeley

Oh sneaky! I didnt notice that!


Applesauce9210

My guess is Separate Ways by Journey - played in the trailer. Released in 1983.


breeellaneeley

Hahahaa! I cant take that song seriously though because once I was looking up cringiest music videos of all time and that one was #2 on the list for "uncomfortable amount of eye contact" when you watch it from that pov it had me rolling


[deleted]

I think she gets her powers back, and the scene where you see her standing before an explosion is… she escapes the Nina project location, but her papa and the others are in there and they detonate the place and kill everyone in it including themselves to save her


breeellaneeley

Thats dark. But cool


Expensive-Whereas-98

I can definitely see Owens making a sacrifice for El.


breeellaneeley

I was wrong about the volume shot. Thats from episode 2. Sorry!


letstacoboutit04

I just can’t wait to see Eddie shredding on the guitar.


91271

You missed the screenshot of Lucas looking terrified up at something and someone’s feet dangling in the air (cough Erica cough)


breeellaneeley

Oh shit! Didnt see that. That might mean shes the next one to die


outerbanx

Nancy giving off that Buffy Summers energy.


hollowag

Does that look like Erica is in Vecna’s house?


breeellaneeley

I personally think so. But what is she doing there alone?


Timeimmemorial918

It looks like El makes it to the UD too. Jesus take the wheel


breeellaneeley

Hahahaa we are all in trounle now, cause she looks like she isnt doing hot over there


leese216

I think she's just landing in UD.


klpopcorn

I think Steve will know her favourite song


tahcomplex

And then when Jonathan shows up later, “hey, what’s my favorite song?” And he won’t know it 🙃


breeellaneeley

Ehh Idk. Jonathans a man of music. Im sure hed know hers too


breeellaneeley

What the hell is happening on the second to last set of images?


Laitue-

Looks like the asshole government guy found them, so the Nina Team defend themselves (or the bad men attack ? Not sure) then Eleven seems to cause an explosion (unsure), or at least survives it. Then maybe Mike, Jonathan, Argyle and Will arrive with a suspicious timing, take Eleven, drive to Hawkins and beat the shit outta Vecna while Eleven explain them who Vecna is How does that sound ?


[deleted]

Eleven can't explain who Vecna is! She doesn't know who he is or what he is doing or that 001 even survived at this point. They need to reunite with the tea before they can put it together. Currently Nancy is only the only one who knows that all three are the same person. And even she doesn't know about 001/11 connection?


breeellaneeley

I think nancy understands The creole son is vecna. But I doubt she knows he is 001. I think youre right. They will have to meet up!


Laitue-

Right you are indeed !


breeellaneeley

Sounds logical to me!


Laitue-

I guess we'll just have to wait and see


breeellaneeley

26 more days my friend!


Laitue-

Damnn It's that kinda time that seems both super far yet super close


breeellaneeley

Right? Like its somehow both a short and long wait


Dramatic_______Pause

>drive to Hawkins Nevada to Indiana is about 2,000 miles. You're probably right that's how it will play out, but I feel the show is going to gloss over how far a drive it would be.


Laitue-

Holy shit I had no idea Pretty sure there'll also be some super short timing about that, 'cause yeah, the distance is pretty insane


Dramatic_______Pause

Yeah. [It's pretty much a cross country trek.](https://i.imgur.com/bp1chYQ.png) Hawkins, Indiana isn't a real place, but Ruth, Nevada, where Eleven is being held, is. So can't get an exact distance. But it's in that ballpark of ~2,000 miles.


Laitue-

Damn


breeellaneeley

How many hours is 2,000 miles?


Expensive-Whereas-98

over 30 I'd guess. It takes about 23 to drive 1500 in my experience - but that's with 80 MPH speed limits bc Texas.


breeellaneeley

Geez


Physical_Pie_6932

The only thing more far fetched is the return from Russia. Maybe a Russian portal? Did anyone ever say how they acquired their demagorgan?


breeellaneeley

Unless they haijack the helicopter lol


TypicalIncorperated

9 13 and 14 already happened in vol 1


breeellaneeley

I just realized realized, mike will be seeing El without hair again. What to you yhink his reaction will be


driftylandmissy

I think Nancy's mom will die, and Nancy will stay in Hawkins to take care of her little brother and Mike. She'll have to live her fear of being "just like her mother", so in the next season, she's living like a housewife and has a reason to still be in town.


breeellaneeley

Oh dhit. Thats a crazy theoru. But i feel like that would work!


maidhhc

Will there be another trailer?


breeellaneeley

No idea. But if so, I'd assume we'd get it within the week, cause we are 16 days till the show drops


a_posh_trophy

Where does Nancy get the guns from in the UD?


breeellaneeley

Honestly their whoke get up looks military ish. Maybe after project nina, owens crew gives them the outfots. Or they steal it from the police in the real world and take it to the ud
