Stranger Things Already Hinted These Two Characters Are Destined To Be Forever Alone
Did the creators of Stranger Things hint at a lonely fate for Steve and Robin?
Stranger Things fans are in a bit of a holding pattern, eagerly rewatching the series as they anxiously await season 5. The good news is that the writers' strike is finally over, so we can rest assured that they're back at it, crafting the final season.
Speaking of rewatching, someone recently stumbled upon some intriguing symbolism in a scene from the season 4 finale. In the final episode, everyone reunites except for two fan-favorites, Steve and Robin.
In this scene, Mike reunites with his mom, Jonathan with Nancy, Dustin with Will and El, but Steve and Robin are just staying there in the background, all alone.
While others were having these heartwarming reunions, these two seemed to be on their own. This sparked a debate on Reddit: are these two destined to be forever alone?
On the brighter side, some fans commented on how they're glad these two have each other. It's like they're each other's rock in the chaotic world of Hawkins. While many fans would absolutely love to see them as a couple, let’s not forget Robin is a lesbian, so it’s technically impossible.
Together, Steve and Robin share a unique bond. While there's initial tension suggesting a potential romantic relationship, the show takes a refreshing turn by solidifying their friendship after Robin's revelation.
Of course, with every fan theory, there's always a counter-argument. Some fans believe that people might be over-analyzing the scene. One comment pointed out that the scene was more of an immediate family reunion and that these two characters never left Hawkins in the first place.
Another fan mentioned that they do have parents; they just didn't go to see them in that particular scene.
On the other hand, the scene might be heavily implying that these two will always have each other as best friends, but they might not meet their loved ones in the final fifth season.
Whether it's a hint from the creators or just a scene that got fans thinking, fans are eagerly waiting for season 5 to do justice to these two, even if it doesn’t mean finding a couple for them.
