TSTP 102- The Golem
Notas del episodio
Can you feel sorry for the monster that's trying to destroy your town? Join hosts Darrell and Addi as we break down "The Golem," the episode where the H.I.C. learns who is behind the hauntings and hate sprites. El's vision reveals that the Lich is Daniel, Nikki's mom's ex. His body is trapped in the Upside Down, but his mind is reaching into Hawkins through his serum and the plants he controls, including the army of "evil Pinocchios." We dig into the gang's argument over whether he deserves any sympathy, which includes a Darth Vader debate, and the decision to split the party and hunt him down. We also cover Dustin and Lucas getting caught climbing out of the sewer by Mr. Mackie, and the near-miss of the gang poking around gas-filled mine tunnels.
Then everything goes sideways. We talk through Nikki's attempt to talk Daniel down, how close it seemed to be working, and the horror when he snaps and unleashes the Golem. We cover El's fight to buy her friends time, and the cliffhanger that leaves Mike and El in serious danger. We also share our theories on what will happen in the season finale in the next episode. Whether you're Team Redeem Daniel or Team Take Him Down, this episode has plenty to unpack. Let's face the Golem!
