Argyle is a fantastic addition. The show spent way too much time in the Hawkins lab.
I might be missing something (I can't see how, since my 17yr old has been playing Stranger Things non-stop for 2 months), but I thought we had previous Lab backstories on how Eleven first opened a gate, or had her trauma with her mom.
Now there is this other trauma that helps her get back her powers? This secondary trauma feels off, like it's just added for season 4 content.
We've been dealing with the big baddie Mindflayer, but now Vecna shows up? If, as Dustin says, that Vecna is a general, then how come we've never seen the Vecna stuff the previous three years the portals were opened?
