Looking CLOSER at Mike at the Snow Ball (Byler)

Just gotta share that it's CANON that Mike dwelled on Will LONGER than Dustin dwelled on Max:

Dustin was already determined to move on, having no idea if he'd find a girl. Meanwhile, Mike (probably) already knew his date would arrive, and Will (unlike Max) was dancing with someone he hardly knew!

But MIKE is the one who seems to have trouble letting go!

Also, when a director plans shots you usually want to lead the eyes of the viewer to what you want them to notice.

So when Dustin is pining after Max, he's on the EXACT same part of the screen as Max when the shot cuts away to her and Lucas dancing.

This is how you establish that Character A is looking at B in a scene. (Look up Eyeline Match and Eye Trace!)

But we also see the EXACT same thing happening with Mike and Will!

The directors are using the same technique showing that Dustin is looking at Max, to show that Mike is looking at Will.

When it cuts back to Mike and Dustin. Again, they match again:

All this visually implies that Mike feels about Will the same way Dustin feels about Max.

And Mike doesn't look too happy, does he?

The show up to this point made us focus on DUSTIN, and frames the shots deliberately so that we do. Like how a magician distracts viewers to look at something else while doing a magic trick, the directors here sneak in a Byler clue while making sure the vast majority of viewers miss it the first time.

And this episode was directed by the Duffer Brothers...

I’ve changed my mind I think there’s no fucking way Mike was genuinely that confused during the van scene. Like yeah he doesn’t know the full story but Will was openly fucking crying he didn’t just not see that idc if he was smiling those are still obviously tears ANYWAY Mike surely didn’t walk away from that scene with the same info we the audience did but he walked away with something and I fear what that may be.
