Stranger Things Recap: To Catch a Demogorgon
"We're three episodes in, and already, I am concerned about people's sleep (or lack thereof). Admittedly, I'm always worried about whether people are getting enough sleep across all aspects of life because sleep is so important, especially for these teens! The initial crawl that went to shit was the night before, and there are no signs anyone is sneaking a nap anytime soon."
"The other reason the crew's plans are getting wilder and riskier is, as Will points out, because they don't have time to play it safe. Now that Will knows he is tapping into the hive mind and getting glimpses of what Vecna can see, he and Robin have figured out that Vecna plans on kidnapping more children and his next victim is Dipshit Derek Turnbow."
Teen characters suffer from significant sleep deprivation that is contributing to poor decision-making and increasingly implausible plans. A recent failure left the group exhausted and unlikely to rest before acting again. The Turnbow Trap represents a high-risk, sensational plan that stretches believability but maintains dramatic excitement. Will and Robin discover that Will's connection to Vecna grants visions of Vecna's perspective, revealing plans to abduct more children and identifying Derek Turnbow as the next target. The team reconvenes at the Squawk with Will leading discussions. Joyce apologizes for overbearing behavior while admitting lingering guilt and fear.
