Stranger Things season 5 isn’t without criticism. Many fans are pointing out moments that maybe don’t make sense or they have issue with. But one criticism doesn’t really work for me and that’s Robin’s (Maya Hawke) explanation of where Max (Sadie Sink), Holly (Nell Fisher), and Will (Noah Schnapp) are in their comas.
They’re all three unconscious and Robin realizes that if they escape, they’re return to their physical bodies. Her way of explaining that to Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin) and Mike (Finn Wolfhard) is to use their favorite albums to do so. One user on X wrote “So does Robin just know everyone’s favourite song in case of an emergency cos how tf would she know Holly’s?” And the answer is simple: Yes. It is established by the show that music can save people so why wouldn’t she try to know everyone’s favorites?
