* There may be few positive things to say about Neil Hargrove, and how he treated his son Billy. However it's clear from the letter Max writes to her stepbrother that Neil [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther really did love his child]]. Max mentions how he pretty much lost it after [[spoiler:Billy was killed in the season three finale]], and that he left Hawkins, and in the process his wife and stepdaughter, because he couldn't stand to be there without his son.

''Stranger Things'' may be full of sadness and horror, [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments but it's also a story about friendship and connection]].

* At least some of Nancy's overall frustration with Fred and later Robin though she softens there once she realizes how cool she is seems to just come from missing her investigations and solving problems with Jonathan in the previous 3 seasons.



* Jonathan taking a single look at a picture of Nancy and himself on the fridge and beginning to formulate a plan to disobey the government and military just to get back to Hawkins to help all his friends in particular her.



* The reunion between Jonathan, Will, Mike and El finding all those still in Hawkins. Special mention to the look on Nancy's face when she sees them pull up.

** Remember how it was implied Hopper did the dead drops for close to a year? He did not. It was just a few weeks - because Eleven revealed herself while he left food, and he immediately decided to give her a place where she could be safe and he has been taking care of her and teaching her more about the world.

*** A small detail in the scene where El's survival is revealed: she refers to the time as eight-one-five instead of eight-fifteen. Hopper corrects her, but it's not really a mistake on her part: it's a callback to the scene in "Holly Jolly" (S1:E3) when Mike gave her his watch so she would know to meet the boys after school at "three-one-five" to search for Will. It's the first indication of how important her memories of the few days she spent with Mike still are almost a year later.

*** Mike's momentary fury at Hopper swiftly turns to grief over the lost time; Hopper's need to protect El by concealing her existence from the government is something he ''can'' understand, and it only takes him a matter of seconds to go from hitting Hopper to crying on his shoulder. Mike's pain, like his anger, is easier for Hopper to bear that it would be for El, and by comforting Mike before they rejoin the others, he's protecting her still.

Added DiffLines:

*** Hopper's interjection, too: he fears that Mike ''might'' say something unkind to Eleven due to his hurt and confusion over her not answering when she could hear him calling, and understanding how much that would hurt El, acts immediately to redirect any anger Mike might feel toward himself. His emotional intelligence and compassion for both kids in this scene makes [[BoyfriendBlockingDad his behavior toward Mike]] in the first part of Season 3 a little hard to swallow.
