Meanwhile Dustin and Erica drives a cart with the drugged Steve and Robin trying to escape from the Russian soldiers. They return to the Starcourt Mall and hide in a movie theater that is showing "Back to the Future". Hopper, Joyce, Murray and Alexei are driving to the Carnival to rescue the children. Alexei teaches how to destroy the machine that is opening The Gate. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Trivia
The Coca Cola Company actually remanufactured fresh cans of New Coke as a cross promotion with this season. The cans were identical to the ones seen in this episode. They were never actually sold in grocery stores but were given away at several promotional events, the Coca Cola Experience in Atlanta, and bundled in an exclusive Stranger Things gift box they sold on their website.

Goofs
Fireworks sales were not legal in Indiana until 2006. The closest state in which fireworks sales were legal in the 1980s would have been in Tennessee.

Quotes
Robin: We all die, my strange little child friend. It's just a matter of how and when.

Quit Whining

This was exciting. Whether or not something like this could happen this way is immaterial. In this setting, with these characters, that's what happens. Yes, this season has more to say about relationships. The girl coming out was really a bit much---wait till your lives aren't in the balance. It was contrived and unnecessary. I have no problem with here sexual orientation--just the lead balloon that was launched. All that aside, it was non-stop action and a good deal of fun. I'm really looking forward to Episode 8.
