Jonathan was getting flashbacks from the time he tried salvaging Nancy’s relationship with Steve by giving him credit for his own show of affection, that’s why he clocked Will so fast

Location, Location, Location
The Turnbow Mansion, the Meat Wall, and Mirkwood
this post includes spoilers from the Feb style guide leak, so look away if you're avoiding that
Tumblr media Tumblr media
as mentioned in this post, the teaser tells us that the Meat Wall is right by the Upside Down Turnbow Realty billboard that we've known about for a while. you can see it behind El and Hopper in the reaction shot above.
since we've only seen the billboard in the Upside Down, it's likely this undeveloped parcel in 1983 has now become a totally new subdivision by 1987 (the billboard says "new residences coming soon," so coming soon in 1983).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is a direct pull from Back to the Future, where Marty drives by his subdivision in 1955 and sees an open field with a billboard advertising a subdivision that is long established in 1985 (implied to be where Marty lives, because the house on the billboard is the same style)
Tumblr media
thinking about this in relation to the Hawkins tunnels map we got as part of the leaked Consumer Products Style Guide in February (Google Drive link, I am still really paranoid about copyright strikes), this is also interesting considering the G1 square of the WSQK bunker map wall - which is the square that Mike has out on the table in the scene with the Party at the picnic table in ep 1.
they've been tracking something with this whole set up. it seems like their biggest goal at this point is figuring out where Vecna has been hiding since El can't find him. so my guess it's related to that, but could also be related to what the military is up to (or both)
Tumblr media
can someone who is better at image enhance forensics than me figure out any of what is written on the little white tabs they have pinned on the map here, I want to knowww
Cornwallis passes through this square (Mike has placed a little military vehicle there, circled above in yellow), and it includes a golf course (outlined in red above) and the start of a street grid that looks extremely like a subdivision. and a country club/golf course makes sense if you're developing a shiny new upper class community.
it was immediately eye-catching that even though Cornwallis is included pretty specifically in the tunnels map, Kerley is nowhere to be found.
so, basically, what the reason there is no Mirkwood (Cornwallis/Kerley intersection) on the map is because Kerley doesn't exist anymore, or was renamed?
Cornwallis also ends in this square, so it's possible the full Cornwallis/Kerley intersection is now completely nonexistent. this section of the map is on the outskirts of town towards Lovers Lake, which if they're maintaining the Lovers Lake/Hawkins National Lab/Byers' old house proximity means that this could be that zone.
so this area of the map very well could include the site of any of those significant landmarks for the show, they just have been demolished or built over between 1983 and 1987. (I personally think Hawkins National Lab is still standing, but I'm now really worried about the Byers' house/maybe even the old site of Castle Byers...)
what the deal is with the obviously significant stop at the residence of this random family has been a big open question for ages, and now I'm wondering if it's not so much about the Turnbows themselves but the mansion's location. if they were developing a whole fancy subdivision, they could certainly have included a nice big house for themselves in the project.
Tumblr media
was the Turnbow mansion built over a site of some important 1983 Upside Down event? it seems like the one that would have the most utility if old gate imprints are "waking up" somehow would be the Byers' shed, but I'm still thinking through that. obviously that wouldn't have been part of whatever stage of the project was occurring in 1983, but the Turnbows could have continued to buy up and develop the surrounding real estate so maybe a post-1985 addition.
Tumblr media
the other detail that tells us something is this has to be in close proximity to wherever the military's new lab is set up, since El and Hopper seem to travel between this billboard in the UD and that lab pretty directly. so in the picnic table scene, Mike could be noting something weird going on with the military's activities in this region that points to experimentation. so whatever they're doing at the mansion could also be related to that...

it’s kinda tragic that el fell in love with mike by watching him look for will because she’d never known love like that, and she saw mike’s capacity for such intense love, and, rightfully so, wanted it for herself. but she never got that version of mike. it’s more apparent in s4 than anywhere else, but all el has really ever wanted is for mike to love her like he loves will

glad to see some stranger things plot priority... literally, fandom isn't structured to talk about it much but! curious to see what route they're taking in s5 to explain things!
yes!! i have always given priority to the supernatural plot of st, since that's what got me hooked back in 2016 when i first saw s1 🫶🏼 byler is just an added bonus imo

Hi, I saw that post you reblogged that referenced some leaker sharing the S5 episode titles and they got them all right except for 5x07. I must not have been around when that happened but I'm really intrigued by it, do you know more? When was that? Did they really claim that episode 5 would be named The Cleric and the Paladin?
hi, i'm sorry but i've been totally out of the loop on leakers and the episode titles! i wish i could give you a timeline of what's been leaked but i'm not up to date besides what i've seen on here the past week. maybe one of my followers can help!

I can’t believe I forgot about that one leak that said Mike’s going to be injured and Will’s going to kiss his forehead while he’s asleep at the hospital, ‘cause now I can’t STOP thinking about it.
