Yet, since it seems inevitable new characters will be introduced into the mix - specifically more revelations of other experiments that preceded Eleven - "The Secret Cabin" could perhaps reference where they've been hiding this entire time. Since the kids' plans were largely conducted in secret in Mike's basement over the course of season 1, there's a chance the cabin could allude to a new spot for them. Honestly, this far down into the episode list, and it's difficult to really ascertain what this secret cabin could be - since the Byers' shed, Will's hideaway, nor any part of Hawkins Laboratory seems to fit this description. However, there's a second interesting definition for pollywog, meaning a sailor who has not crossed the Equator - could this be referencing someone who has yet to cross into the Upside Down (or out of it)? CL If the Demogorgon was essentially planting eggs inside of Will (again, gross), that would definitely explain why Joyce and Hopper find him in the Upside Down attached to a strange, living tube. But for the sake of theorisation, hear us out: could it be referring to Eleven? The sensible money would be on Will Byers being the boy mentioned in this title he did, after all, almost die after spending an entire week in the Upside Down.
Perhaps it’s a reference to the Upside Down, the post-apocalyptic wasteland a slug-vomiting Will keeps seeing around him.
STRANGER THINGS SEASON 2 EPISODE 1 FREE DOWN CODE
With season 2 being set in 1984 - a year before the release of third film Beyond Thunderdome - could ‘Madmax’ be a password or code word used by Mike, Dustin and Lucas? With season 1 evoking Spielberg films of the 80s ( Close Encounters, E.T.), the title of season 2’s opening episode references George Miller’s Mad Max franchise. One thing to immediately notice is how Stranger Things will continue to wear its homages on its sleeve.
