""There's this sort of mercenary regime, they're called the Wolf Pack," she said. "They're Dr. Kay's men who are meant to be finding Eleven.""
""Sinister scientists, Soviet spies, and... cover-ups all loom large," according to Time."
"There are only eight episodes left in the entire series, so there's going to be a lot to keep up with."
Eleven remains the central figure, whose escape set events in motion and whose past is further explored. Season 5 introduces Linda Hamilton as Dr. Kay, whose operatives form a mercenary regime called the Wolf Pack tasked with finding Eleven. The new season combines Upside Down dangers, including Vecna, with terrestrial antagonists such as sinister scientists, Soviet spies, and institutional cover-ups. Creative influences include Home Alone-style booby traps and Terminator 2 action, promising long tracking shots, stunts with flying bodies, and emotional moments. Barb's body reappears in the season. The finale spans eight episodes released on Thanksgiving Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year's Eve.
