I don't care about the plot holes; I care about the feelings. Hopper and Joyce finally getting their date at Enzo's broke me. The callback to the Season 1 bike ride was perfect. It wasn't about the monsters; it was about growing up and letting go of childhood. The final shot of the D&D board being packed away was the perfect metaphor for us, the audience, moving on. It was safe, sure, but after 10 years, I didn't want to see my comfort characters die. I wanted them to be okay.
