While Stranger Things season 5 is likely to feature a lot of great moments, viewers already know what the standout scene will be. Stranger Things season 5 is taking its sweet time making it to Netflix, but the show’s final outing will reportedly be worth the wait. Arriving in 2025, Stranger Things season 5 promises to bring the sprawling story of the series to a conclusion that finally explains the origins of Eleven, Vecna, and what is going on in Hawkins, Indiana. Stranger Things season 4’s ending made an admirable stab at this but left a lot unresolved.

Fortunately, Stranger Things season 5 has plenty of screen time to fix any lingering plot holes. According to star Maya Hawke on the podcast Podcrushed, Stranger Things season 5’s lengthy episodes are more like movies than TV show outings, and blockbuster director Frank Darabont coming out of retirement to helm one bodes well for the show. Although there are many Stranger Things season 5 characters who will be vying for screen time, it is already pretty easy to guess which of them will receive the outing’s coolest moment. Millie Bobby Brown’s Eleven deserves to finally cut loose in the end.

Eleven has been central to the show’s story since Stranger Things episode 1 freed her from a mysterious lab and threw her into the life of the unassuming suburban kid Mike Wheeler. Eleven’s Stranger Things journey has been long and complex as the character dealt with her emerging psychic powers, her secret sister, her romantic relationship with Mike, her move to California, the apparent death and later resurrection of her surrogate father figure Hopper, and flashbacks to her traumatic past as a laboratory test subject. However, in all this time, Eleven’s true power potential has not yet been seen.

Earlier seasons gave viewers hints about the awesome scope of Eleven’s potential powers.

Stranger Things season 4 finally explained her powers, but the closest that viewers came to seeing them in action came when she took down Vecna. Eleven was unprepared for this showdown and her friends were scattered across the country, meaning Vecna seemingly escaped with his life and left Max comatose in the process. However, earlier seasons gave viewers hints about the awesome scope of Eleven’s potential powers. From her pulling a train in season 2 to closing the portal to the Upside Down in the same outing, to the first time she banished Vecna, Eleven is implied to have incredible abilities.

Eleven lost her powers before season 4 began, only regaining them after months of isolated training with her former tormentor, Stranger Things villain Dr. Brenner. However, season 4’s finale made it clear that a distracted, distraught Eleven didn’t make the most of her powers while fighting Vecna alongside an all-too-mortal Max, and season 2 clarified that Eleven’s powers hadn’t peaked yet since she was still a child. As such, Stranger Things season 5 will be the first and last time that viewers will finally get to see what Eleven can do when she finally harnesses her full strength.
