Capital One moves to acquire Hopper's installed software and hire key hotel and engineering teams — signaling a deeper push into owning the traveler journey. The team explores the LuxUrban collapse which predates the Sondor fall out but has an eerily similar story. And Google announces that hotel and flight bookings are coming directly into AI Mode, collapsing research and booking into a single conversational experience. We break down what these moves mean for distribution, loyalty, hotel operators, and the future relationship between brands, banks, and big tech. This Week in Hospitality is presented to you by Journey. Journey is a loyalty platform built specifically for independent boutique hotels and high-touch hospitality brands. Our mission is to give operators the same powerful rewards engine, data intelligence, and guest insights that major chains rely on — without asking them to give up the individuality, soul, or story that makes their property extraordinary. If you're an owner or operator of an extraordinary, independently owned and operated hotel or residence — and you want to see whether your property is a fit for the Journey Alliance — you can learn more and apply at alliance.journey.com.

In this very special KATG episode (sure, why not?), Keith goes solo to discuss the Pittsburgh Steelers first losing season in two decades, his interaction with ICE, and the GOP staffer who faked being zip-tied and abused by anti-Trumpers. While Megyn Kelly doubles down on defending Trump with underage girls, flu hospitalizations reach its highest rate in 15 years and Marjorie Taylor Greene resigns from Congress. Also, Keith's TV disease made him watch Squid Game: The Challenge 2, and he needs to share what he saw with you like it's The Ring. He also talks about the Stranger Things' Hopper vs. Eleven and competency porn (aka The Pitt).

AGI territory sales manager Blake Taylor says growers across Western Canada saw bumper crops for 2025, but the challenge has been storing those big yields in a year of softer commodity prices. “A good problem that they had this year were phenomenal yields," he says, "the not-so-good problem? Commodity pricing.” Transport limitations vary by province,... Read More

In this episode of Geek Freaks, we get you ready for Stranger Things season 5 with a full recap of seasons 1 through 4, plus a review of Wicked For Good and reactions to the new Hunger Games prequel trailer, Sunrise on the Reaping. We also break down the new live action TMNT reboot news and what that means for The Last Ronin, along with George R. R. Martin's latest Game of Thrones spinoff teases. Frank and Jonathan kick things off with some Thanksgiving week chatter, holiday prep, and a quick update on the redesigned GeekFreaksPodcast.com and this year's Patreon holiday swag bundles. From there, they talk about Sunrise on the Reaping, why the Hunger Games world still works, and why Wicked For Good might actually top the first film for musical fans. The bulk of the episode is a big Stranger Things refresher. The guys walk through seasons 1 through 4, season by season, covering major story beats, character arcs, and the emotional moments that still hit, while calling out why Vecna, Max, Eddie, and the Starcourt Mall finale matter so much as we head into season 5. They wrap with current watch recommendations and a Thanksgiving thank you to the Geek Freaks community. Timestamps & Topics 00:00 – Thanksgiving Week Check-In & Housekeeping Holiday plans, cleaning for family visits, and trying (and failing) to start Christmas decorating early. 00:59 – New Website & Patreon Holiday Bundles Frank explains the revamped GeekFreaksPodcast.com and reminds Patreon members to update their addresses for the holiday swag packs. 02:06 – TMNT Live Action Reboot & The Last Ronin Delay Reactions to a new live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, practical suits vs CGI, and frustration that The Last Ronin adaptation is being paused. 04:31 – Game of Thrones / Westeros Spinoffs Talk George R. R. Martin's sequel teases, who deserves a spinoff (Arya, Davos, the Manderlys, Dorne), and what corners of Westeros and Essos they most want to see. 13:06 – Sunrise on the Reaping Trailer & Hunger Games Worldbuilding First impressions of the new Hunger Games prequel trailer, why the tech vs poverty contrast in Panem still works, and how closely the films stick to Suzanne Collins' books. 18:30 – Roofman Ad Read Frank drops a mid-episode spot for Roofman and why the premise stands out. 18:30 – Wicked For Good Review (Spoilers Light) Why Frank loved Wicked For Good, how it runs alongside The Wizard of Oz, character growth for Glinda and Elphaba, and thoughts on musicals in general. 26:15 – What Did Not Work In Wicked For Good Some middle-act clutter, narrative complexity around Elphaba's sister, and how the dual narratives can get a little dense. 32:16 – Setting Up the Stranger Things Season 5 Rewatch Prep Explaining the plan to recap seasons 1–4 as a full refresher to get ready for Stranger Things season 5. 32:29 – Stranger Things Season 1 Recap & Reactions The disappearance of Will, the first trip to the Upside Down, meeting Eleven, and why the show's early mystery and 80s vibes hit so hard. 36:02 – Stranger Things Season 2 Recap & The Lost Test Subjects The Mind Flayer's first move, Max and Billy's introduction, Eleven's "sister" detour, and how fan reactions may have changed the direction of the show. 40:07 – Stranger Things Season 3 Recap & Starcourt Mall Finale Rats, Russians, mall culture nostalgia, the Billy redemption, and Hopper's "death" in the gate machine. 46:33 – Stranger Things Season 4 Recap: Vecna's Curse Chrissy's death, Max's "Running Up That Hill" escape, the Creel House, Hopper in Russia, Eddie's hero moment, and Hawkins merging with the Upside Down, setting the stage for season 5. 52:35 – Nostalgia Done Right: Stranger Things, Stephen King, Welcome to Derry Comparing Stranger Things' style of nostalgia to cheap reboots, thoughts on Welcome to Derry and Pluribus, and why good worldbuilding feels fresh even when it looks retro. 58:18 – Weekly Recommendations Jonathan: Rewatch Stranger Things as season 5 approaches, and check out Pluribus on Apple TV. Frank: Make Some Noise on Dropout and why good improv feels like magic. 59:52 – Thanksgiving Wrap-Up & Five-Star Reminder Thanking the Geek Freaks community and reminding listeners to drop those five stars on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Key Takeaways The new GeekFreaksPodcast.com is live with a cleaner layout that makes it easier to share news and highlight shows across the network. Patreon holiday bundles are going out soon, so supporters need to confirm or add their mailing addresses to actually receive the swag. The new live action TMNT film has fans worried that The Last Ronin adaptation is getting shoved aside, and there is a strong preference for practical suits over full CGI turtles. George R. R. Martin continues to develop Westeros spinoffs, and there is a lot of interest in stories about Arya's travels, Dorne, the Manderlys, and Davos rather than revisiting the same old angles. Sunrise on the Reaping, the new Hunger Games prequel, looks like classic Hunger Games with the same sharp contrast between Capitol excess and district poverty that made the original films land. Wicked For Good nails its character work, deepens Glinda and Elphaba, and cleverly runs parallel to The Wizard of Oz, even if the middle stretch gets a bit tangled. The Stranger Things recap walks through all four seasons to give listeners a full refresher before Stranger Things season 5, hitting major character arcs, big deaths, and how the Upside Down threat has evolved. Season 4's Vecna twist, Max's near death, and Eddie's "Master of Puppets" distraction set up a darker, more apocalyptic final season, with Hawkins literally merging with the Upside Down. Stranger Things is praised for doing nostalgia the right way, feeling familiar without just copying older stories, similar to the best of Stephen King adaptations. Memorable Quotes "If this looks at all good, I know I'll be seeing it." – Frank on the new live action Ninja Turtles movie. "Just stop doing these retellings of the same story and continue to make us fresh content that just happens to be related to the things we already like." – Jonathan on constant reboots. "Northern mermaid folk with tridents on their banners? Come on, man, how are we not doing a show about them?" – Frank on the Manderlys. "That 'Running Up That Hill' scene basically broke the internet." – Jonathan on Stranger Things season 4. "It is not the same song, but it sounds familiar. That is what good nostalgia should feel like." – Frank on Stranger Things and Goonies-style stories. "I officially give you permission to yell at people who sing full volume in the theater." – Frank on musical movie etiquette.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for November 26th Publish Date:  November 26th Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, November 26th and Happy Birthday to I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Which grocery stores are open on Thanksgiving? Christmas pilgrimage tour to offer a glimpse of historic Marietta homes Cobb cracks down on unregulated pet sales All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: Ingles 1 STORY 1: Which grocery stores are open on Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving’s almost here, and let’s be honest—someone’s gonna forget the cranberry sauce or run out of butter. Happens every year, right? If you’re that person (no judgment), don’t panic. While big stores like Walmart, Target, and Costco are taking the day off, a handful of grocery stores will have their doors open—just with shorter hours. Here’s the deal: Amazon Fresh? 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Food Lion? Closing at 3 (or 4 in some spots). Sprouts? Open till 7. Walgreens? Only the 24-hour ones. Moral of the story? Double-check your stores—or embrace the chaos. STORY 2: Christmas pilgrimage tour to offer a glimpse of historic Marietta homes The Marietta Pilgrimage Christmas Home Tour is back for its 39th year, running Dec. 5–7, and this time it’s all about the historic Kennesaw Avenue neighborhood. Think festive, decked-out homes, rich history, and a little holiday magic. Five private homes—plus churches, museums, and other historic spots—are opening their doors. Highlights? The 1840 Gignilliat-Griffin-Gilbert House with its Romanesque marble mantels, and the Buttolph House, where 12-foot ceilings and original fireplaces have been lovingly restored. Tickets are $35 in advance ($40 during the tour) and cover all three days. Complimentary shuttles will run from Mill Street. For tickets and details, visit mariettapilgrimage.com. STORY 3: Cobb cracks down on unregulated pet sales  Cobb County just tightened the leash on unregulated pet sales. A new ordinance, approved unanimously by the Board of Commissioners, now lets animal services officers issue citations for illegal roadside sales of dogs, cats, and rabbits—think parking lots, flea markets, and sidewalks. The ordinance doesn’t stop licensed breeders or pop-up adoptions, but it cracks down on shady sellers. Ann Lewis and her 9-year-old twins, Hadley and Ellie, spoke in support. “We’ve seen puppies sold from car trunks,” Ellie said. Three related amendments also passed, including one allowing shelters to shorten hold times during emergencies. Cobb’s shelter has already taken in over 6,200 animals this year, and space is tight. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: STRAND THEATRE STORY 4: MHS students and volunteers help feed hundreds ahead of Thanksgiving break Marietta High didn’t just hand out food before Thanksgiving break—they showed up for their people. Over 200 families walked away with bags full of fresh produce and pantry staples, thanks to a team effort that felt more like a big, messy family reunion than a food drive. The JROTC kids and football players? They were out there at the crack of dawn on Nov. 19, hauling 10,000 pounds of food like champs. Superintendent Dr. Grant Rivera put it best: “This is what community looks like. Our students know they’re cared for, supported, and surrounded by love.” It’s not just a holiday thing, either—MHS has families’ backs all year long. STORY 5: ‘No more good 10 acres’: Parks director lays out path forward for Cobb  Cobb County’s running out of land for parks—like, really running out. Michael Brantley, the parks director, didn’t sugarcoat it when he spoke to the Kiwanis Club. “There’s no good 100-acre plots left. Heck, not even 10-acre ones,” he said. Land’s expensive, and what’s left? Not exactly prime real estate. So, what’s the plan? Brantley says it’s time to rethink what we’ve already got—revamp, redevelop, make it work. Oh, and there’s the Tritt property, nearly 30 acres near East Cobb Park. It’s tied up in restrictions, but there’s hope. And trails? Big plans there—connecting the Silver Comet to the Beltline? Game-changer. Break: STORY 6: Public comment sought on Orrs Ferry plan   Got thoughts on the future of Orrs Ferry? The National Park Service wants to hear ’em. They’re working on a big plan—like, 20 years big—for the Chattahoochee River’s Orrs Ferry unit, and they’re asking the public to weigh in by Dec. 21. What’s in the works? On the west side: new trails, restrooms, picnic spots, parking, and even a restored meadow. The east side? A bridge over Crayfish Creek, trail connections, and water access. Oh, and they’re rethinking old buildings—repurpose or remove? Got ideas? What’s missing? Check out the plan (and comment!) online. Your voice matters. STORY 7: Cumberland to launch driverless shuttle system  Cumberland’s gearing up for something straight out of the future: driverless shuttles. Thanks to $6.6 million in federal funding (plus $1.1 million from the CID), a fleet of eight ADA-accessible, autonomous shuttles is set to hit the streets in 2027. They’ll loop through hotspots like Truist Park, the Cobb Convention Center, Cumberland Mall, and even the Chattahoochee River. Kim Menefee, CID’s Executive Director, calls it a game-changer for transit—healthier communities, less traffic, and a model for the whole country. Oh, and rides? Free. The Hopper pilot proved it works, with 11,000 riders onboard. The future’s rolling in. We’ll have closing comments after this.

On this episode of Challenge Accepted, Frank Lourence (@franklourence79) teams up with Jonathan to walk through Stranger Things seasons 1 through 4 so you are fully refreshed before season 5 lands. The two revisit the early days in Hawkins, the rise of the Mind Flayer, the Starcourt Mall showdown, and Vecna's terrifying curse, mixing clean plot recaps with personal memories and reactions. Along the way they talk about why the show's '80s nostalgia still works, how characters like Hopper, Billy, Max, and Eddie evolved, and what they hope to see in the final season. They close by sharing release timing details, how they plan to watch the finale, and why Stranger Things sits next to the best Stephen King style stories on TV. Timestamps & Topics 00:00 – Welcome to Challenge Accepted & episode setup Frank explains that this is a special Stranger Things recap segment originally from Geek Freaks, now on the Challenge Accepted feed, and previews the upcoming Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving special. 01:00 – Season 1 recap – Disappearance, the Upside Down, and Eleven Jonathan reads through season 1, covering Will's disappearance, Joyce's light communication, Hopper's first trip into the lab, the Upside Down, the Demogorgon, and Eleven's apparent sacrifice. 03:15 – What made season 1 a phenomenon Frank and Jonathan talk about the show's early "word of mouth" buzz, the glow of kids playing Dungeons & Dragons, and how Stranger Things helped define Netflix binge culture. 04:20 – Season 2 recap – The Mind Flayer and Eleven's lost sister arc Season 2 gets broken down: Will's visions, the Mind Flayer connection, Max and Billy's arrival, Eleven hiding with Hopper, the demi-dogs, closing the gate, and the Snowball Dance stinger. 06:35 – Reactions to season 2 and the "other test subjects" detour They revisit the backlash to Eleven's trip to meet other numbered kids, why the revenge-crew idea did not land for many fans, and how that may have changed the show's direction. 08:55 – Season 3 recap – Starcourt Mall and Billy's tragic turn Season 3's mall setting, Russian base under Starcourt, Billy's possession, the Mind Flayer's flesh monster, Hopper's apparent death, and the Byers family leaving Hawkins with Eleven. 12:45 – Why season 3 might be the best season Frank explains why Starcourt is his favorite arc, from mall nostalgia and growing independence for the kids to Dustin and Steve's unlikely friendship and Billy's late redemption. 15:20 – Season 4 recap – Vecna, Russia, Nina, and Max's escape Frank recaps season 4 in detail, including Chrissy's death, Eddie and the Hellfire Club, Vecna's curse, the Creel house, Eleven's Nina Project memories, Hopper's Russian prison story, and the massive rift tearing through Hawkins. 19:20 – Running Up That Hill, splitting the cast, and season rankings They revisit the viral Max sequence with Kate Bush, talk about how big and cinematic season 4 feels, and debate whether splitting the cast across Hawkins, California, and Russia helped or hurt the show. 21:15 – Nostalgia done right vs cheap reboots Frank and Jonathan compare Stranger Things to Stephen King stories and shows like Welcome to Derry, and talk about why "vibes" and visual language beat straight remakes of '80s properties. 25:00 – Looking ahead to Stranger Things season 5 Speculation about the final season, how the now-older cast will work, excitement for the three-part holiday release plan, and hopes for one last big, emotional Hawkins story. 27:00 – Outro and how to get involved Closing thanks, reminders to share thoughts on the new season, and all the ways listeners can connect with Challenge Accepted and support the show. Key Takeaways Stranger Things still holds up as a complete story about friendship, trauma, and growing up, not just an '80s nostalgia showcase. Season 1 set the tone with a simple missing kid mystery anchored by Joyce, Hopper, and the kids discovering the Upside Down. Season 2 expanded the lore with the Mind Flayer and Will's possession, but the "other test subjects" storyline remains divisive. Season 3's Starcourt Mall arc delivers the most complete season for Frank, combining great character work, a grounded villain in Billy, and a huge finale. Season 4 is the darkest and biggest chapter so far, with Vecna tying the entire series together and pushing characters like Max, Eddie, and Eleven to their breaking points. Hopper's evolution from troubled sheriff to adoptive dad and tragic hero is one of the emotional cores of the show. The series succeeds because it captures the feeling of classic adventure stories like The Goonies and Stephen King adaptations without copying them beat for beat. With season 5 on the horizon, expectations are high for Stranger Things to stick the landing as a modern genre classic. Memorable Quotes "They made this big mystery and you wanted to solve it." "This was the first time that binging became a thing, like a huge step for Netflix." "Max was a big introduction here, and you could tell they were setting up more seasons." "Starcourt Mall was such a good setting. That was the place where you had ten bucks in your pocket and felt richer than anything in the world." "Running Up That Hill broke the internet. That whole Max scene is just unreal." "It is not the same song, but it sounds familiar. These kids sound like The Goonies."

Apple and Delta team up to make baggage tracking smarter, Capital One moves to take control of its travel tech as Hopper shifts deeper into B2B, and major travel brands are noticeably absent from COP30. On today's Skift Daily Briefing, Sarah Dandashy breaks down why Apple's quiet systems-level influence is reshaping lost-bag operations, what Capital One's software acquisition means for Hopper's future, and how the travel industry's no-show at this year's climate summit could have long-term consequences.

Next, they explore how citizenM hotels CEO is positioning the brand after securing a $685 million loan post-sale by Marriott International, signaling what's next for one of the fastest-growing lifestyle hotel players. Tune in for a mix of tech, finance, and brand strategy signals that suggest hospitality is entering a new phase of consolidation, guest empowerment, and capital repositioning.

When pediatric OT Adele Hopper and early childhood educator Jess Warner stepped outside the clinic and classroom, everything changed—regulation improved, anxiety eased, and play exploded into real learning. In this powerful, hope-filled conversation from Australia, we trace children's journeys from cautious observers to joyful risk-takers, and the way true, child-led play builds executive function, social courage, and deep confidence. You'll hear how TimberNook's long, unhurried blocks of outdoor time create what school and screens can't: mixed-age “neighborhood play,” sibling bonding, and communities where grandparents pull up a chair and stay. Parents report calmer evenings and better sleep; facilitators witness science, literacy, and problem-solving emerge organically—no adult-made toys required. Adele and Jess also open the door for parents itching to bring this to their towns: how they found land, partnered with Scouts, and let nature (plus a few loose parts) do the heavy lifting. If you've felt that tug to start something, this episode is your green light—and a reminder that childhood thrives when it's ungoverned by four walls. Listen in, share it with a friend, and then take the first step outside. Learn more about TimerNook here Learn more about Mother Earthed here Learn more about your ad choices.

If you're constantly looking for that next seminar, video, book or course, this episode is for you.

So we are back for the finale and El uses all her powers to be extra badass and pull a piece of the mindflayer out of her leg. AFTER Jonathon spends what feels like an hour with his hand INSIDE her leg... it's so gruesome and it literally makes me cry. She's so brave! And she gets it out and throws it to Hopper who steps on it like "don't mess with my daughter BITCH!" Erica calls Maury bald about a million times and I guess it's supposed to be funny. But this episode is hardly funny, there are a lot of tears. El's powers are gone now somehow. They try to split up and give each other cute nicknames for their groups. The Griswalds, Scoops Troop, Bald Eagle, the lovebirds (Jopper)Steve takes on yet another child by telling the yellow car he's it's daddy and wow... yea alright Maury keeps trying to talk to Russians and Hopper just wants to shoot them all The griswalds try to leave but Billy is there just staring at then like a psycho so nothing new with himThe mindflayer flesh monster shows up and it's a horror movie for about thirty minutesas they finally try to leave, Billy starts heading for them, like going to run over Nancy for real but Steve smashes into his car and it catches on fire and everyone is like "steve good thing you did that because Billy is evil" and he's like "yea I knew that last year" and they are like "no it's like REALLY evil" and he's like "right and racist" because remember as far as Steve knows at this point he's just hitting regular Billy's car with the Toddfather car, Steve's seventh adopted child. Hopper and Joyce need the code but the only person on earth who knows it is in Utah and that's Suzie, she finally copies... except she won't tell Dustin the code unless he humiliates himself in front of everyone he knows and so he does and it's so awkward... Then Billy crawls out of his car and spots El, his target and the flesh monster stops chasing the Griswald car and Billy hits three children and takes one and lays her (Eleven) down in the middle of the mall like a sacrifice to this monster, it's dark... but then Lucas comes in with the fireworks, good job and idea my guy...It's a rush to get the gate closed before they run out of fireworks and this thing kills El and she knows it and she looks Billy in the eyes and is like "I saw you, I see you, I know who you could have been, you still can" and he's like... "Word?" and Word indeed because the fireworks are gone, Hopper has fought off Griori for the last time and killed him and Joyce has Macgyvered her belt to turn two keys at once and two grown men give their lives to save El because she is equal to about forty adult white men at least... honestly lol but it's super sad, even for Billy in a way, it's who he could have been but it got abused out of him until this very moment where he finally does the right thing and Max is Devastated and Hopper is "dead" and we are all devastated and the news is like "is this because of a harmless fantasy game??? because that's how society is and it's so infuriating... and then El finds a speech meant for her from her dad, Hopper and my gosh Millie Bobby Brown is the best actress in the world I do not care what anyone says... and then they all cry and hug because Joyce has adopted El and at least now she has someone to fix her hair and they are all going to leave Hawkins, the Byers + El that is... and they do and it's super sad and then Steve and Robin get jobs at the video store because she knows movies and he is a hot chick magnet (supposedly) and then it's over and Hopper is dead... for real... you can leave now, he's gone... oh wait, those aren't stars, it's snow and we are back in Russia where "the american" is in a cell... but we don't see him but we all know and it was such a fake out...

Kit, Andy, and Steve revisit one of the most powerful and unforgettable episodes in all of Stranger Things. In Chapter Four: Dear Billy, Max is haunted by visions that suggest she may be the next victim of the terrifying new threat stalking Hawkins. As her friends scramble to save her, they uncover chilling clues about Vecna's curse and what it takes to break it. Meanwhile, Nancy and Robin team up to dig into the past, Joyce and Murray's journey takes an unexpected turn, and Hopper faces a brutal fight for survival in Russia.00:00:00 - Introduction00:02:47 - MadLibs Word Search00:04:56 - Overall Thoughts00:16:27 - Scene by Scene Recap01:09:05 - Chocolate Puddings (Top 3 Moments)01:15:48 - Easter Eggos01:24:03 - Eleven out of 10 Performance01:25:10 - Step Into the Nina01:35:49 - Stranger Things MadLibs Story RevealSpotify Playlist: HEREVideo Version of this Episode: YouTubeEVENTBRITE LINK for our LIVE STREAM!Buy Tickets to Our Live Show: HEREFollow Us on Social MediaStreaming Things PatreonStreaming Things InstagramStreaming Things TikTokFollow Kit LazerTikTokInstagramYouTubeFollow SteveInstagramFollow AndyInstagramVisit Our WebsiteCheck Out Our MerchSend Us Mail:Streaming Things6809 Main St. #172Cincinnati, OH 45244 Hosted on Acast.

Mayor Kline starts us off by quoting Hammond from Jurassic Park and the nerve of this guy, you are not John Hammond, you a-hole. Karen is trying to force Ted into having fun and he calls it torture and she says that's what makes it fun considering my entire life is serving you and these kids, I deserve one fun DAY TED! Well she doesn't say that out loud but I know she's thinking it. The Ferris wheel stops at the top because Karen slipped Jimmy a 5 and that's hilarious to me for some reason. Holly sees the trees move and Karen tells her that we don't listen to the concerns of women in Hawkins and she needs to get used to it now because this will last her whole life... at the cabin they are discusing how they are all going to die because a male monster can't handle knowing a small girl is more powerful than him, and just like most weak ass males he overreacts to his bruised ego by wanting to do a genocide... and even though Hopper didn't say no parties, this party gets out of hand just a tad and there is hole in roof by the end of it. El is a badass but they still peace out because this thing is relentless and also just a pile of exploded flesh and how do you kill that? and so El got bit... The scoops troop escapes the underground lab and Steve and Robin are so stoned... but steve swears he doesn't DO drugs dad, it's only marijuana lol They watch a new movie about incest and Dustin tries to contact the others for a rideMike apologizes to El and skirts around telling her his feelings while she messes with his mind about it, it's cute honestly. But Dustin interrupts that moment to scream about how they are under attack or something Mike probably doesn't care about as much as his convo with El but needs must... Steve and Robin get lost and then get sick and Steve tells Robin he likes her and she says "but I'm a Lesbian" and he's like "I thought you were American?" (RIP Vine) Murray yells at Joyce and Hopper because they haven't gotten laid in a while and it's making them both (aka just Hopper really) insufferable They get pouty about him and Alexi laughing at them for it and for him saying it at all... They get to the fair and Hopper and Joyce run into Karen and Ted and they all have to go on a ride and Jopper holds hands aww and Ted looks miserable Karen is smiling like this is the best ride she's had since that dream she had about Billy that Ted will never hear about... Alexi has lots of fun while Murray gets corndogs and when Alexi wins a Woody Woodpecker toy, the terminator gets jealous because he tried to win that for hours and couldn't so he shoots him...

The scoops troops is nearly caught at the mall until something amazing happens...
