flashback!) to follow a series of growling, slurping noises. Brenner, who is leading a team of hazmat-suited, gun-toting men ( E.T. When did he get white hair? He plays the nefarious Dr. It is not hot.īack at the lab, Matthew Modine has gotten old. She and Steve are later seen canoodling in her bedroom as "Africa" plays. Meanwhile, Mike's older sister Nancy is making out with Steve Harrington, whose hair rivals Trump's in ridiculousness. Hopper doesn't have time for these nerds. All they can really offer up is some Hobbit-related intel about where he was last seen. Hopper obliges her by going to the middle school and quizzing Will's friends about his whereabouts. "You said 99 out of 100," Joyce presses him. He mansplains that 99 out of 100 times, the kid comes back unharmed. Joyce enlists the help of Police Chief Hopper, but he brushes her off with a reminder that this is a town where garden gnome thievery is regarded as a major crime. He's not at Mike's, he's not with his deadbeat dad, and he's not at school. Also, Will is missing and neither his frazzled single mom Joyce (Winona Ryder) or his older brother Jonathan know what to do about it. Andrews, we return to Hawkins to learn that power surges have been going on all over the place. And poof! He's gone.Īfter a beep-bop-beep, video gamey opening sequence that makes me think of Christopher Pike and V.C. It finally dawns on him that the growling is coming from behind him. Will rushes to the backyard shed and grabs an air rifle. Something or someone is trying to get into the house. Will tries to call 911, but only gets a staticky hissing noise that sounds like he's called up Mars. Ominous animal noises send him racing back to his house, which is empty save for a barking dog. He sees an alien-esque figure, causing him to steer off the road and fall. Will pulls ahead, only to have his light cut out. It's time to head home, so Will and Dustin race each other back on their bikes. There's foul-mouthed Lucas Dustin, who shares Judah Friedlander's taste in headwear Mike, who looks like a 12-year-old boy version of Juliette Binoche and sweet Will, who cannot tell a lie. We hear a guttural snarl as the man is lifted up like a plush toy in an arcade game.Ĭut to four pre-teen boys playing Dungeons & Dragons like they're generals in the Situation Room in some bad action movie. It doesn't matter, anyway, because the creature he's trying to escape from is actually above him. The lights flicker as the man rushes to the elevator, which apparently doesn't have that all-important "close door" button. An alarm sounds as a man in a lab coat runs for his life in what appears to be either the worst dressing room on the planet, or an abandoned Lost set. More pressing, however, is the shit going down in the Hawkins National Laboratory, run by the Department of Energy. Reagan is in the White House, "Islands in the Stream" is at the top of the charts, and somebody's dad is trying to watch Lethal Weapon even though it won't come out for another three and a half years. Welcome to Hawkins, IN, circa November 6, 1983.
