00:08What the heck is that thing?
00:10I don't know, but it's got Rosario!
00:20Correction, it just ate Rosario!
00:37How did it grow that fast?
00:40It's hiding in the trees!
00:46Where did it go?
00:47Can anyone see it?
00:51Mike!
00:53I got you!
00:56But who's got you, Mike?
01:03Let them go!
01:07Hold on, Elle!
01:08Hold on!
01:23It's coming for us!
01:40Please be gone!
01:41Please be gone!
01:42Please be gone!
01:42Please be gone!
01:44It's not gone!
01:48Grab my hand!
01:50Dude, help me!
01:54No, not again!
01:59Over here, Freak Show!
02:01Again!

02:38Ow!
02:40Ow!
02:41Ow!
02:44Hey!
02:45Circle Lancer!
02:49Leave my friends alone!
02:52Heeeep!
02:53Oh, yeah!
02:53Heck, yeah!
02:53Zombie Boy!
02:55Yeah!
02:55Oh, yeah, Will!
03:09Oh, yeah!
03:11Ah!
03:22Oh, no.
03:49El!
03:56Nice job, man.
04:03Is she alive?
04:04If she's not, she's definitely going to kill me.
04:11I think that pie was bad.
04:14Come on, guys. Let's get Rosario home.
04:17Good idea.
04:19Why am I covered in all this gunk?
04:42That was a heck of an allergic reaction to pumpkin pie.
04:45The amount of barf was pretty gnarly.
04:49I wasn't allergic to pumpkin before.
04:52Puberty. Life changes. Am I right?
04:56You're an idiot, Henderson.
04:59Puberty? Seriously? I don't know.
05:02I want that vest back clean.
05:04No tumble dry.
05:05Don't ruin the waterproofing.
05:08Okay, I gotta get Eleven back home before curfew.
05:11Arcade meetup tomorrow.
05:12We'll figure all this out then.
05:13Good, because I can barely stand.
05:16Hey, you sure you still want to be part of all this new kid?
05:19Dude, what? Are you kidding?
05:21You guys are way more entertaining
05:22than anything I could ever find on cable.
05:25And you?
05:27I told you you were a rock star.
05:29Later.
05:30Later.
05:30Yeah, that was awesome.
05:31Good job, Lennon.
05:32Yeah, man, you totally destroyed him.
05:34Thank you, Will.
05:36Friends help friends.
05:39Night.
05:40Don't let the pumpkin things bite.
05:42Come on.
05:43Something's really wrong with you, Max.
05:45Are you all right?
05:47Yeah.
05:48It's just...
05:49What if there are more?
05:51Then we'll stop them, too.
06:07Here you go.
06:08One order of fries.
06:10Perfect.
06:10I'm starving.
06:12Hey, I bought these for Eleven to try.
06:15She's had fries before.
06:16Yeah, but cheese fries.
06:19Cheese fries?
06:23These are so delicious.
06:25Hey, dude.
06:26If you like those, wait until you try chili cheese fries.
06:30Chili cheese fries?
06:32Yeah.
06:34Everyone, eat.
06:37Oh, so good.
06:38Guys, come on.
06:40Slow down.
06:40Hey, just be glad Justin's not here yet, or there'd be nothing left.
06:44Gives us a minute to talk about the campaign, because I was thinking of DMing this time.
06:48You want to be Dungeon Master?
06:50You know, when this upside-down stuff is done...
06:54When?
06:55Being the operative word.
06:57First things first.
06:59Aboleth.
06:59According to the Monster Manual, our Snow Shark looks like a snow-based Aboleth.
07:04Plus, Snow Shark sounds like a Jabberjaw character.
07:07Bottom line is, something from the upside-down must have survived last year.
07:12That's how we got the Aboleth.
07:14It was safe, Charlie, and then we got more details thanks to our HIC tip boxes.
07:18One lead was to a freaked-out Charlie who told me that a vine attacked him.
07:22The other lead was scoped out by Agents Mayfield and Sinclair.
07:27Yeah, you are not calling us that.
07:29Anyway, a crop of transformed pumpkin vines were discovered at Eugene's farm.
07:33More like, almost killed us.
07:35Then, the Jerko Lantern happened.
07:37But the gate is closed.
07:39Where are the vines coming from?
07:41And what happened to these plants in our world that would make them turn Charlie and Rosario into upside-down
07:45creatures?
07:46We are missing something.
07:49Oh!
07:50What if the creatures needed something from Charlie and Rosario?
07:53Maybe they weren't transforming Charlie and Rosario into creatures...
07:58But feeding off of them.
07:59Of course!
08:00And using them as human hosts!
08:02Gamma World has a section on plant and vine mutations.
08:05So, you guys reference fantasy books instead of actual science?
08:10Hey, whatever works.
08:12No, you're right.
08:14We need real answers from someone who knows science stuff.
08:17Man, I wish Mr. Clark was here.
08:20Hey guys, I think I might know someone who can help.
08:26All right, everybody.
08:28Slice and bake cookies.
08:31Mr. Clark Warnth told me about his A.B. Club students and their curious minds.
08:38Looks like he was right.
08:39Yep, that's us.
08:40Oh, hello.
08:41I don't think I recognize this face.
08:45Are you in a different grade than your friends, dear?
08:49School is at home.
08:51Oh!
08:52An independent!
08:54Some of our greatest minds were homeschooled.
08:57If you ever need any help, I am here.
09:02Mr. Henderson.
09:05Dan!
09:06I told you I'd get your money!
09:09Relax, I'm not here for you.
09:10What's up, D-Man?
09:11Gotta head to the store.
09:13I'll see you tonight.
09:14Okay, honey.
09:16My turn to Dine and Dash.
09:17Consider this a down payment.
09:20Bye, sweet people.
09:21Later, Dan!
09:21Bye, Dan!
09:22See ya!
09:22So, Mrs. Baxter.
09:24We were talking evolution stuff.
09:26Yes!
09:27Yes, yes, yes!
09:28I apologize.
09:29Evolution.
09:30Please continue.
09:31If a creature was cut off from its home, and now in a completely different environment,
09:36is it possible that in order to survive, it could evolve and adapt to make the new location its home?
09:41That is correct.
09:42The isolated specimen could form a new genetic branch thanks to natural selection.
09:47Is there any way that new branch could make something evolve faster?
09:52Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, it could indeed.
09:55Where there is isolation, there are leaps in evolution, like orchids.
09:58They can evolve in a matter of days.
10:02Interesting.
10:03Oh, my good God, it is.
10:05Dragonflies, even some frogs, evolve into very different animals at different phases of their life cycles.
10:11The evolutionary leap makes it even more so.
10:14Life cycles?
10:15Like an alien.
10:16Oh!
10:16Oh, I love that movie!
10:17When the alien egg sensed a person as its unwilling host, it hatched that bizarre knuckled organism.
10:24Oh, yeah, the crap thing on the dude's face?
10:27Which laid an embryo of its own into the person's chest cavity.
10:31Until finally bursting from his chest, ending the cycle by turning into a terrifying adult.
10:49There's a cycle.
10:50Thank you so much, Mrs. Baxter.
10:52You've been amazing.
10:54Oh, my pleasure, Treasure.
10:56I could talk about this stuff all day.
10:59Evolution, extinction, especially extinction.
11:03The biggest factor that triggers evolution in the first place.
11:08wait what do you mean the fear of extinction is a great motivator like mushrooms and pine trees
11:15when they're dying they release spores these spores are going to ensure the survival of
11:21their species isn't nature just fascinating
11:28upside down spores it's gotta be whatever got stuck here after i'll close the game
11:32is evolving to survive in our world it would explain why these creatures look so different
11:36than anything else we've seen yeah maybe it's releasing spores and turning plants in our world
11:41into upside down creatures and taking people then we need to check the fairgrounds and eugene's farm
11:47and stop these things from spreading max and i will check the farm the fair has way more ground
11:51to cover good idea ladies and gentlemen the hawkins investigators club is on the case
12:04did you find anything no not yet you know i'm really starting to hate this farm oh that's fair
12:12this place did not hold a good track record it officially ruined pumpkins for me maybe if 11
12:19comes along i might consider eating pumpkin pie again maybe we did all right on our own but yeah
12:25el's powers would have come in pretty handy she ain't no tractor driving mad max though
12:30ever wonder what you'd do if you had el's powers oh i would totally freak billy out like explode his
12:36bottle of gross cologne crack his new windshield take the wheel while he's steering he wouldn't know
12:40where he's coming from he'd go nuts wow you've thought this through maybe a little what about you
12:47probably the same with erica your little sister isn't half as bad as my stupid stepbrother
12:53i'd take erica any day of the week how about tomorrow
13:03hey look at those vines guess they didn't find a pumpkin to latch onto
13:07that ash around them it looks like dried up spores
13:12did this come from the spores it definitely came from something looks like the vine was in the middle
13:19of mutating didn't get far though shriveled up worse than my aunt angela
13:24are you sure that's a good idea sure it is could be evidence
13:31hawkins investigators club case file number zero zero two we are in the woods south of the hawkins
13:37festival grounds 20 hours 12 minutes post our encounter with the jergo lander it's been dry
13:43since last night there's no new snow cover to impede our continuing search mike another
13:54it looks pressure everything we've seen so far has been dead on our present walk we found the
14:01remains of a semi-mutated upside down plant covered in dead spores we found it in the southern direction
14:08which indicates the wind was pulling south last night you think sherlock
14:13things from upside down like it cold winter and hawkins is his perfect playground
14:33okay mildly freaking i'm gonna be out here i need a weapon okay no nope aha great for protection
14:44against creatures and taking my mom's burnt barbecue off the grill where'd you get all that
14:49stuff from my brain i've got a garage full of junk i'm kind of like the leonardo da vinci of
14:55trash
14:55what can i say i like to tinker luckily my mom encourages me to experiment i think it's just
15:00to keep me busy so i don't butt into her own science junk let's just say she's definitely not like
15:06other
15:06moms she is very funny she's a total freak show my mom too then again so am i which is
15:15why we get
15:15each other you know well sometimes kinda what do you mean we just go about things differently is all
15:22i like to stick it out and work on stuff and she likes to hop onto the next new thing
15:25once in a while
15:27she'll find a job she likes but that usually doesn't last long then it's just us again and off we
15:32go
15:33she thinks of it as learning experiences i think of it as never having to unpack guys hold up over
15:41here holy moly
15:58i was not expecting that at least now we have an answer if they don't find a host it dies
16:05now we
16:06know it definitely has a limited life cycle yup less than a day
16:16justin this is lucas over lucas what is the situation over it's confirmed we found dead
16:22mutated vines at the farm there was ashy stuff all over them we think they may be sports we found
16:27the

20:47But they were wrong.
20:50To tell you the truth, I...
20:52I've kind of always had a crush on you, Steve.

22:13those things all of this it's gotten out of control maybe mike's right elle can choose her own battles
22:20yes but we've lost the battle those creatures are evolving just like mrs baxter said yeah they
22:26don't even need human hosts to stay alive anymore you're right they are evolving all the more reason
22:31to go after them now before they evolve even more we need to stop those things before they hurt other

24:25harrington i am officially drafting you into the hawkins investigators club
24:35something tells me i'm gonna regret this
24:43and that's why you should focus less on the fact that i put el in danger and more on the
24:48fact that i
24:49told you about it and that's when hopper kills me
24:56hello hey kid are you ready for the best movie night of your life you're taking me to the movies

26:12you kit bash a bunch of normal everyday stuff together and voila you get a crazy cool new
26:19thing that never existed before for example
26:30that is so cool boom exactly yes who wants to do the same thing as everyone else when you can
26:35think
26:36outside the box

28:53whoa stop it are you we barely survived our last go around with these things
28:58why can't you just fall back and leave the investigating to the real ghost hunters for once
29:03firstly the word you're looking for is busters but points for trying second if hopper finds out
29:08how long before the government finds out and once they find out eleven
29:16i can't believe you're gonna drag me this again fine fine i will help you hunt this thing but things
29:22there's two of them of course there is well lucky for us i have never once cleaned out my trunk

35:41ever even see you again
35:42and when i saw those logs almost crush you
35:45i guess i figured if hopper locked you up i'd at least know you were okay
35:50i understand

35:53but you can't control everything mike
35:56i do not want you to

39:32I'd have to go back to being some ordinary kid.
39:35Trust me, kid.
