Matty was the only one who didn't experience any effects from the pills. That's when I knew something was off with him.
As soon as Matty said "It sleeps during day" i knew he was sus 😅
Rose didn't "decide to help take the creature down." She decided to keep Taniel safe while the rest of the soldiers get themselves killed.
the theory time jingle is getting progressively more unhinged lmao
FYI, the woods and Derry are not separate geographical areas. The woods within which It was trapped was developed into Derry. It has not been escaping the woods to enter Derry. Derry is what the woods once were.
The military did so bad in the sewer lol I know it furthers the plot but damn 😂😂 they got separated in seconds
That Pennywise reveal was exactly what I've been waiting for! Duck and Cover, Kiddos!
I think they said in the episode that “the boundaries are all around what is now modern day Derry”
I legitimately started giggling and kicking my feet because of the Pennywise reveal, it was that good. 🤣
