The title of the sixth episode is "E pluribus unum," which is Latin for "Out of many, one," which is exactly how you could describe the Mind Flayer, or how someone might describe the stated goals of Communism. The people the Flayer corrupts, enslaves, and eventually absorbs become separate pieces of a single body, which is why in the season finale Billy suffers every time the Flayer is attacked. Like the mall, the Flayer is made from the town it's killing.Īt the same time, the Flayer also reflects the excesses of communism. The physical manifestation of the Mind Flayer is made from corrupting Hawkins' people, killing them, and absorbing their flesh into its massive form. From a certain point of view, the mall is destroying the same town it's built upon. Compared to the crowded mall - a symbolic example of capitalism's excesses - downtown Hawkins looks like a ghost town. In the beginning of the season, we learn Hawkins' local businesses are suffering because of the Starcourt Mall. Dustin gets everyone to agree to hike with him to Hawkins' tallest hill so they can set up Cerebro and contact Suzie, but Eleven and Mike ( Finn Wolfhard) bail before they finish the climb, presumably to find a good spot to make out. With her psychic abilities, Eleven ( Millie Bobby Brown) is the character in Stranger Things most like Professor X, and ironically she's one of the few of the series' kids who isn't there for Cerebro's unveiling.
Cerebro is the device Professor X uses to amplify his telepathic powers to find other super-powered mutants. I don't know if you heard, but the new season's. Dustin explains the only way to contact Suzie is his newly constructed ham radio, which he nicknames "Cerebro."Īnyone familiar with Marvel's X-Men from just about any medium will know where Dustin gets the name. Let's dust off some of those Stranger Things cobwebs, get back on our bikes, and recap Season 3 before Stranger Things 4: Vol. Dustin tells everyone about his new girlfriend Suzie (Gabriella Pizzolo), who seems to be a figment of Dustin's imagination before we finally meet her in the season finale, along with getting to hear the disgustingly happy couple belt out the theme song to 1984's Neverending Story.
