Keep scrolling for a look at 11 details you might have overlooked on the second season of "Stranger Things."
Lucas teased Dustin about not getting the princess when he played "Dragon's Lair," foreshadowing how Lucas would wind up with Max by the end of the season.
"You're just not nimble enough," Lucas said. "You'll get there one day, but until then Princess Daphne is still mine."
The rest of the season played out a small love triangle between Dustin, Lucas, and Max, but Dustin was left alone and without a love interest by the end of the season. He'll get there one day, right?
It was ironic to hear Murray Bauman say he thought Eleven was a Russian child, since Eleven was being used by Hawkins Lab to spy on Russians.
On the opening episode of the second season, Bauman harasses Chief Jim Hopper about his theory involving a Russian child (Eleven) and an elaborate conspiracy with international consequences.
Bauman had pieces of the story correct, but the things he got wrong were telling.
The Russians are mentioned by various characters, but often as a vague allusion to the Cold War, but no one knows how they connect to Hawkins Lab.
No one seems to realize Dr. Brenner and Hawkins lab seemed to first plan on using Eleven to spy on Russians by showing her their picture and having her listen to them with her powers. Eleven herself is likely unaware of what her temporary involvement in the Cold War was, given how limited her understanding of the world is.
