00:13.605 --> 00:18.105
<i>Love, love will tear us apart</i>

00:22.438 --> 00:23.855
Morning!

00:23.938 --> 00:25.355
What we got cooking?

00:30.980 --> 00:32.563
Order up!

00:32.646 --> 00:34.396
You forget the strawberries, D-Man?

00:34.480 --> 00:36.771
Who do you think you're talking to?

00:36.855 --> 00:41.021
Wowie zowie, strawberry pancakes?
What's the occasion?

00:41.105 --> 00:42.855
<i>- Hollywood Squares!</i>
<i>- Hollywood Squares!</i>

00:44.396 --> 00:47.438
Channel 11's running a marathon all day.

00:47.521 --> 00:48.480
Mm.

00:48.563 --> 00:51.605
When did my daughter
become a 50-year-old man?

00:51.688 --> 00:53.230
You're welcome.

00:54.105 --> 00:55.438
Oh, get out of here!

00:58.730 --> 01:02.146
<i>How could you, Daniel? You monster!</i>

01:05.730 --> 01:07.271
- Oh my God!
- Nikki!

01:08.730 --> 01:09.813
Look out!

01:16.438 --> 01:18.230
Please, no. No, no.

01:18.313 --> 01:20.521
No! No, no!

01:20.605 --> 01:23.146
No!

01:23.896 --> 01:30.188
<i>Love, love will tear us apart</i>

01:32.063 --> 01:34.230
<i>Again</i>

02:48.438 --> 02:49.688
Morning!

02:58.355 --> 02:59.355
Come on!

03:01.896 --> 03:03.271
Come on!

03:16.896 --> 03:22.938
If those same molecule structures can
somehow recreate a way back, then I can…

03:23.021 --> 03:24.605
<i>Because you make me feel special.</i>

03:33.480 --> 03:36.646
Oh no, no, no, no, no!

03:37.146 --> 03:38.521
<i>Hollywood Squares!</i>

03:43.688 --> 03:45.313
<i>You monster!</i>

03:51.188 --> 03:53.396
I'm going to die here.

04:17.021 --> 04:19.980
<i>How could you, Daniel? You monster!</i>

04:20.063 --> 04:23.230
<i>No! No!</i>

05:31.521 --> 05:32.980
The Lich is Daniel?

05:33.063 --> 05:35.313
Wait, who's Daniel?

05:35.396 --> 05:37.063
A biologist.

05:37.146 --> 05:38.896
My mom's ex.

05:39.438 --> 05:43.813
He was plant food. We all saw it.
El, are you sure it was him?

05:43.896 --> 05:49.730
I am sure. His body is in the Upside Down,
but his mind is here.

05:49.813 --> 05:52.938
It sounds like he's using his serum
to control plants,

05:53.021 --> 05:57.896
project himself, or his consciousness,
through them, into them.

05:59.188 --> 06:01.396
And into all these evil Pinocchios?

06:02.396 --> 06:04.688
If he's been stuck in the Upside Down,

06:04.771 --> 06:08.438
then he's probably looking
for a way to escape.

06:08.521 --> 06:11.730
Okay, but how? How does all of this help
with any of that?

06:11.813 --> 06:15.271
We don't need to know what his plan is
to know that it's hurting people.

06:15.355 --> 06:18.480
We have to stop him
before he takes out the whole town.

06:18.563 --> 06:20.480
We're gonna need to hunt him down.

06:21.771 --> 06:26.021
Jeez, right into Rambo mode.
It never stops with you nerds.

06:35.563 --> 06:38.896
Do those look like tracks to anyone else?

06:47.146 --> 06:48.438
They just end here.

06:50.730 --> 06:52.313
Has anyone got a clue?

06:58.396 --> 07:02.521
That one heads north,
and that one goes east.

07:02.605 --> 07:04.730
Does one of those sound like a better bet?

07:05.396 --> 07:07.563
Well, H.I.C., buckle up,

07:07.646 --> 07:10.480
because it looks like
we're splitting the party.

07:15.730 --> 07:20.105
I was in the Upside Down for a week
and barely survived.

07:20.188 --> 07:22.813
I can't believe
he's been trapped there all this time.

07:22.896 --> 07:24.771
Sounds like a waking nightmare.

07:25.355 --> 07:26.271
Oof.

07:27.271 --> 07:28.271
It is.

07:30.396 --> 07:32.438
You guys almost sound sad for him.

07:32.521 --> 07:36.063
I mean, I'm definitely not happy about it.

07:36.146 --> 07:39.396
I don't know that anyone deserves
what's happening to Daniel right now.

07:39.480 --> 07:42.480
Did you forget
that he's been terrorizing Hawkins?

07:42.563 --> 07:45.271
Or how about the fact
that he tried to kill us?

07:45.355 --> 07:48.230
Yeah, dude. I was there, remember?

07:48.313 --> 07:51.105
But that doesn't mean
I wish horrible things on him.

07:56.396 --> 07:59.230
Maybe Daniel wasn't always evil, you know?

07:59.896 --> 08:01.730
Like… Like, Darth Vader.

08:01.813 --> 08:03.146
Darth Vader?

08:03.230 --> 08:05.105
He's the bad guy in <i>Star Wars.</i>

08:05.188 --> 08:06.271
I know.

08:06.355 --> 08:08.855
He was not always evil?

08:08.938 --> 08:10.938
She only saw the first movie.

08:11.021 --> 08:14.688
I'm just saying,
somewhere inside this creature

08:14.771 --> 08:17.188
is someone we know used to be human.

08:17.271 --> 08:19.271
Darth Vader may have saved Luke,

08:19.355 --> 08:22.980
but he still killed people.
He blew up a whole planet.

08:23.063 --> 08:24.938
That was Grand Moff Tarkin.

08:26.438 --> 08:28.646
Just remember that in the end,
the good guy won

08:28.730 --> 08:32.105
because Luke Skywalker believed
there might still be good in his father.

08:32.188 --> 08:33.855
His father?

08:34.480 --> 08:35.480
Oh, um…

08:36.230 --> 08:40.021
You seriously think a man like Daniel
can still have good in him?

08:41.521 --> 08:44.480
I think the exit's ahead. Come on.

08:49.855 --> 08:53.688
Ugh, if I never see a sewer again,
I'll be happy.

08:53.771 --> 08:57.396
Maybe we should get up high.
I don't know, climb a tree?

08:57.480 --> 09:00.188
If Daniel's left a trail,
then we might be able to spot it.

09:01.355 --> 09:04.521
I don't think finding a trail
is gonna be a problem.

09:20.563 --> 09:21.896
Huh?

09:38.563 --> 09:41.146
What in the world?

09:49.188 --> 09:50.938
Ugh!

09:51.021 --> 09:53.271
That place stunk like your breath,
Henderson.

09:53.355 --> 09:55.605
Why is everyone always saying
I have bad breath?

09:55.688 --> 09:57.563
Ah!

09:57.646 --> 09:58.896
I got a splinter.

09:58.980 --> 10:01.313
I told you to cover your hands.

10:03.521 --> 10:06.063
- Mr. Henderson? Mr. Sinclair?
- Ah!

10:06.146 --> 10:11.896
Uh, hey, Mr. Mackie.
What brings you out this beautiful night?

10:11.980 --> 10:15.646
Never mind me.
What were you all just doing in a sewer?

10:15.730 --> 10:18.105
What were we doing?

10:18.188 --> 10:19.271
Um…

10:19.355 --> 10:22.396
Lucas, would you kindly tell the gentleman

10:22.480 --> 10:25.730
the perfectly good reason
we were in the sewer?

10:25.813 --> 10:31.188
Well, since there were actually
a few good reasons for us to be in there,

10:31.271 --> 10:35.313
it may be hard to narrow them all down
to just one, so…

10:38.646 --> 10:41.230
Seems like you guys have a few things
to hash out.

10:42.105 --> 10:44.521
We'll just be waiting over here.

10:44.605 --> 10:45.938
To be fair,

10:46.021 --> 10:49.646
we weren't so much in the sewer
as we were under the street.

10:50.313 --> 10:51.313
Hmm.

10:52.646 --> 10:53.855
Dustin!

10:56.021 --> 10:57.230
Dustin, come in!

10:59.605 --> 11:01.855
Come in! Over!

11:02.438 --> 11:04.313
Why aren't they answering?

11:11.438 --> 11:12.813
Oh my god.

11:12.896 --> 11:13.896
Guys!

11:17.771 --> 11:19.271
He is alive!

11:19.771 --> 11:21.230
What could have…

11:33.021 --> 11:35.230
No way.

11:36.896 --> 11:40.313
Gentlemen,
you're dancing around the point.

11:40.396 --> 11:43.271
The sewer is no place
for unsupervised children,

11:43.355 --> 11:48.063
no matter what precautions you might take.

11:48.563 --> 11:52.021
You're right!
I guess we gotta spill the beans.

11:52.105 --> 11:56.313
If there are beans,
then by all means, spill them.

11:56.396 --> 11:59.230
You see, Mr. Mackie, uh…

11:59.313 --> 12:02.605
If you can't see your way
to an explanation, gentlemen,

12:02.688 --> 12:06.438
then perhaps a call to your parents
would provide one for me instead.

12:06.521 --> 12:08.396
Well, it's like this.

12:08.480 --> 12:12.521
We promised accuracy
in our history project, right?

12:12.605 --> 12:15.521
Accurate facts, costumes…

12:15.605 --> 12:17.771
And locations.

12:17.855 --> 12:19.230
That's why.

12:19.313 --> 12:23.230
We were scouting the sewer
as a double for the old silver mine.

12:31.313 --> 12:33.688
Help me!

12:33.771 --> 12:35.521
D-Man!

12:35.605 --> 12:38.146
It's me! It's… It's Nikki!

12:43.188 --> 12:47.480
I know how scared you are.
I've been there, in that place.

12:47.563 --> 12:50.105
I know how terrifying it is.

12:50.188 --> 12:54.146
We know what happened to you.
You're trapped, somewhere horrible.

12:54.230 --> 12:56.063
<i>No!</i>

12:56.146 --> 12:57.105
<i>You're trapped.</i>

13:00.396 --> 13:02.730
D-Man, your tongue is green.

13:05.563 --> 13:08.271
No!

13:08.355 --> 13:10.563
<i>I mean, hey, we're family, right?</i>

13:13.605 --> 13:14.896
<i>Daniel!</i>

13:18.396 --> 13:20.313
I think it's working. Keep going.

13:20.396 --> 13:25.980
But Daniel, this… this thing
you turned yourself into, it's not you.

13:26.063 --> 13:29.313
You didn't want to hurt anyone before.
I know that.

13:29.980 --> 13:32.771
Hurt…

13:32.855 --> 13:36.605
Hurt, yeah. But you're hurting people now.

13:36.688 --> 13:38.855
This isn't the way to save yourself.

13:38.938 --> 13:41.480
No. You don't have to be a monster, okay?

13:47.105 --> 13:49.271
Daniel! You monster!

13:53.771 --> 13:56.063
You can put that dude down.

13:57.230 --> 13:58.771
You just need help.

13:59.730 --> 14:03.480
So you were saying,
a double for the old silver mine?

14:03.563 --> 14:07.230
Yeah. See, um,
we tried shooting in the real mine.

14:07.313 --> 14:09.855
- Help me! Help me!
- But it was too…

14:09.938 --> 14:13.188
- Mm-hm.
- Too dark. It was too dark in there.

14:13.271 --> 14:15.980
Do you boys hear something?

14:16.063 --> 14:19.146
Nope. Not a sound.

14:19.771 --> 14:23.688
My ears really must be
playing tricks on me,

14:23.771 --> 14:25.896
because I also thought I heard you say

14:25.980 --> 14:28.146
you were messing around
in the old silver mine.

14:28.230 --> 14:31.938
- Yeah. Would it be a problem if we were?
- Hold still!

14:32.021 --> 14:33.313
What do you mean, hold still?

14:33.396 --> 14:37.271
Would it? Yes!
Weren't you listening in class?

14:37.355 --> 14:39.938
Those tunnels are filled with natural gas.

14:40.021 --> 14:44.188
If you kicked up so much as a spark,
the whole place would go up in flames.

14:44.271 --> 14:48.563
Okay, are you certain
you boys don't hear anything?

14:48.646 --> 14:52.646
It sounds like a… a clicking.

15:02.688 --> 15:07.105
What? Mr. Dandridge!
What on earth are you doing?

15:07.188 --> 15:08.688
I'm saving your skin, you old--

15:08.771 --> 15:11.313
He means we have to go. Now.

15:12.355 --> 15:16.938
A little club soda should get that
right out, Mr. Mackie. See ya!

15:18.980 --> 15:22.938
So, a bunch of evil pixies attack,
and that's fine.

15:23.021 --> 15:26.271
But when your crackerjack compass breaks,
that's an emergency.

15:26.355 --> 15:29.438
It's not broken.
It's just not facing true north.

15:30.063 --> 15:32.105
What do you think? EM surge?

15:32.188 --> 15:35.605
Oh, man.
We haven't seen one this big since…

15:35.688 --> 15:36.855
Yeah.

15:41.021 --> 15:43.771
But there's no way
he's strong enough, right?

15:43.855 --> 15:45.480
I'm already sorry I asked,

15:45.563 --> 15:48.688
but does anyone want to tell me
what the hell is going on here?

15:50.188 --> 15:51.521
Mike, come in.

15:51.605 --> 15:53.771
<i>Code red. We have a code red.</i>

15:55.396 --> 15:57.188
Do you hear me?

15:57.271 --> 16:01.855
Daniel, you just need help!

16:02.438 --> 16:06.105
<i>How could you, Daniel? You monster!</i>

16:06.188 --> 16:08.813
<i>No!</i>

16:12.021 --> 16:14.771
<i>You just need help!</i>

16:19.771 --> 16:21.396
I…

16:22.896 --> 16:24.938
need…

16:25.855 --> 16:27.563
…fear!

16:27.646 --> 16:29.521
Nikki! Watch out!

16:38.855 --> 16:40.938
What happened? What is this?

16:41.021 --> 16:42.313
Hey, are you…

16:42.396 --> 16:44.105
Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay.

16:45.855 --> 16:47.355
What is that thing?

16:48.563 --> 16:49.605
Sam!

16:57.230 --> 16:58.313
Where's El?

17:14.105 --> 17:15.063
She's okay.

17:15.646 --> 17:20.271
Nikki, whatever we say,
I don't think Daniel's gonna listen.

17:20.355 --> 17:22.188
Then…

17:22.271 --> 17:23.813
…he really is gone.

17:25.855 --> 17:28.646
If this guy freaks out again,
he'll get us all dusted!

17:28.730 --> 17:30.230
We have to get him out of here!

17:30.313 --> 17:33.688
How? Daniel will flatten us
as soon as he sees us!

17:34.605 --> 17:36.438
So he better not see us.

17:50.105 --> 17:52.938
Hey, guys, I have a plan.

17:53.021 --> 17:54.896
And we're gonna need that.

17:55.396 --> 17:56.563
Hey, El!

17:57.438 --> 17:59.063
You ever watch <i>Jaws?</i>

18:03.563 --> 18:06.146
Hey! Mouthbreather!

18:09.480 --> 18:14.271
You ruined my Valentine's Day.

18:21.938 --> 18:24.063
Hey, D-Man! Smile.

18:34.855 --> 18:35.771
Now!

18:38.271 --> 18:39.105
Oh no!

18:39.188 --> 18:41.896
Hey! Incoming!

18:48.105 --> 18:50.730
Come on! Come on! Get him to cover!

18:50.813 --> 18:51.813
There!

19:08.063 --> 19:08.938
Ah.

19:23.271 --> 19:24.980
That was a bad move!

19:56.480 --> 19:58.021
I'll buy you some time.

20:02.313 --> 20:03.230
El!

20:23.688 --> 20:26.605
No more!

20:50.271 --> 20:51.480
Mike!

21:06.771 --> 21:08.355
El!

21:14.521 --> 21:17.146
You're…

21:18.105 --> 21:20.855
afraid…

21:20.938 --> 21:21.813
El!

21:21.896 --> 21:24.063
…for him!

21:27.980 --> 21:30.396
Daniel, don't do this!

21:37.646 --> 21:38.855
- No!
- No!

21:39.521 --> 21:40.355
No!

21:42.396 --> 21:44.313
Stop! Stop!

21:46.980 --> 21:48.896
No! No, no, no, no!

21:50.063 --> 21:51.063
Mike!

22:04.813 --> 22:06.563
- El! Run!
- Come on!

22:08.271 --> 22:09.521
No!

22:14.271 --> 22:15.355
Mike!

22:26.896 --> 22:28.438
It's gonna be okay.

22:31.146 --> 22:32.646
Mike!

22:42.230 --> 22:44.605
I think this is it, guys.

22:44.688 --> 22:45.730
Wait.

22:45.813 --> 22:47.896
What is this place?

22:47.980 --> 22:48.896
Is something wrong?

22:48.980 --> 22:50.646
Nothing. It's just…

22:52.480 --> 22:55.021
I feel like I've been here before.

22:55.105 --> 22:59.355
The energy source should be
right around here.

22:59.438 --> 23:00.438
That's it!

23:01.355 --> 23:03.188
The night my uncle disappeared.

23:03.896 --> 23:05.938
This is where I saw the ghost!

23:06.646 --> 23:08.105
Where you saw Daniel.

23:08.188 --> 23:11.521
As far as we know,
that was his first attack.

23:11.605 --> 23:13.938
Maybe this spot means
something special to him.

23:14.438 --> 23:16.771
Wait a second. You guys, look!

23:25.146 --> 23:26.646
I don't know how,

23:26.730 --> 23:30.313
but Daniel is definitely trying
to open a gate.

23:31.480 --> 23:32.771
Is that…?

23:33.938 --> 23:35.313
Come on! Take cover!

23:45.063 --> 23:48.688
Wait. Where are they going?

23:52.313 --> 23:53.521
Oh no.
