It's like... It's like I feel what the shadow monster's feeling.
See what he's seeing.
Like in the Upside Down?
Some of him is there. But some of him is here, too.
Here, like, in this house?
In this house and... in me.
It's like... It's like he's reaching into Hawkins more and more. And the more he spreads, the more connected to him I feel.
And the more you see these now-memories.
At first I just felt it in the back of my head.
I didn't even really know it was there. It's like when you have a dream and you can't remember it unless you think really hard. It was like that. But now it's like...
Now I remember. I remember all the time.
Maybe... Maybe that's good.
Good?
Just think about it, Will. You're like a spy now. A superspy. Spying on the shadow monster. If you know what he's seeing and feeling... maybe that's how we can stop him. Maybe all of this is happening for a reason.
You really think so?
Yeah. Yeah, I really do.
What if he figures out we're spying on him? What if he spies back?
