The camera holds on the Wheeler's living room—shattered glass, dark stains on the carpet, the air thick with the ghost of violence. It cuts to a hospital waiting room, where Eddie Munson sits with his head buried in his hands, the silence around him a crushing weight. Then, a sudden shift: a forest of silver light and floating spores in Dimension X. Two girls, you and Holly, stand shaking before a house that glows with deceptive warmth. Henry steps from between the trees, his presence calm, his smile unsettling. The contrast hangs heavy—Eddie's raw, breaking grief in Hawkins against the softly crafted prison of Dimension X—a fracture between worlds that has stolen everything.
