His last words to Dustin are 'I love you, man' (improvised by Joseph Quinn (opens in new tab)).

Dustin's with him when he dies, and Eddie asks, 'I didn't run away this time, right?' He tells the younger boy to look after everyone else, and brings up his belief that this was the year he was gonna graduate. His death scene is tearjerking, not just because a new favorite character is gone again so soon. There are flashes of his earlier scenes talking about heroism (him telling the crew he just ran when Chrissy was in trouble, telling Steve that he and Dustin are no heroes) as he sacrifices himself to make sure Steve and Co. Unfortunately, the bats are drawn back toward Vecna's body, and Eddie decides to be the hero and lure them back into attacking him. Once the bats are headed their way, the duo takes cover in the trailer, and succeed at holding them off, with Dustin getting back through the portal unscathed. So the pair easily pulls off the hell-bat distraction plan: a performance of Metallica's 'Master of Puppets' dedicated to Chrissy. The boys are totally in sync as great friends, even having a sweet bonding moment in episode 8 where Eddie tells Dustin to never change. (Yay, Will love!) Eddie's Trailer in the Upside DownĮddie and Dustin's phase of the plan starts off without a hitch. Meanwhile Jonathan reminds Will that he'll always be there for him, no matter what. While waiting for Will and Jonathan to set up the tank, Mike almost gets the nerve to tell El he loves her. El comes up with the piggyback plan, while Argyle comes in clutch and suggests turning a Surfer Boy location's pizza dough freezer into her sensory deprivation machine. are still stuck in Nevada, unable to find a flight to Hawkins (though that wouldn't get them there in time anyway). Eleven, now awake, uses her supercharged powers to take the helicopter down before staying at Brenner's side while he dies, though she doesn't offer her 'Papa' forgiveness. Then Brenner tries to outrun the military siege while holding her, but he's gunned down by a helicopter. He would rather drug Eleven and lock Owens in a closet, leaving his fate to the anti-Eleven branch of the army. Once they do find Eleven, she's a bit busy dealing with Brenner refusing to let her help Max with her plan. Give some of that love to yourself, Will.) The speech is clearly meant to show Will's crush on Mike, but also, Mike's useless. He was the one holding them together while Mike and Lucas were off sucking face and Dustin was hunting Russians in season 3. (Counterargument: Will is the heart of the group. In another stroke of perfect timing, they look up to see that former guard Dmitri has actually convinced Yuri to fly Katinka the helicopter, to aid in the group's second escape from the prison. Though it looks like a close call (with Hopper pinned down by a demodog during the mid-battle 'are actually they gonna lose?' montage), the adults succeed at torching the creatures, at the same time that the other teams are attacking Vecna. When Hopper, Murray, and Joyce get back to the prison, the particles have been freed from the broken tank, and they have reanimated the museum of demogorgons and demodogs. When the adults hear that the kids are off to face Vecna, Joyce decides to flambé the particles and weaken the Upside Down hive mind while the kids are fighting. They somehow got a hold of some particles similar to the ones that came out of Will when his connection to the Mind Flayer was severed in season 2. Takahiro Mashima, despairs in the human race as he barely escapes amidst the chaos into the forest dominated by dangerous monsters with his life, only to encounter a giant slime over 2 meters tall.Speaking of the prison, we got a good amount of Upside Down lore from Jopper and Co.'s discovery of the Russians' secret lab, where they were apparently in the middle of dissecting of a demogorgon when Hopper was rescued.

Students then started indiscriminately attacking each other. The remaining cheat ability users staged a coup d’état and rampaged. Just a week after most of the cheat ability users left to explore the new world, chaos broke out in the Colony where most of the students without abilities remained. “Cheat” was originally a word meaning to trick or deceive, but now it’s used as a term in games to mean something not originally possible, or over-powered in the original system. Facing total annihilation, they were only saved by some of the students, whom discovered that they have gained cheat-like abilities. One day, students in a certain high school were transferred to another world where they immediately got attacked by hostile monsters. This work has been marked as by the author for depictions of violence and cruelty.
