   Summary

   [The S3 end montage plays… that god-awful cover of “We Could Be Heroes” plays… the party says goodbye… the Byers drive away… Will is staring out the window, crying…

   The “Welcome to Hawkins” sign is shown as JOYCE drives by, and the music changes and becomes OMINOUS.

   WILL winces, and his nose starts to BLEED.]

    

   or, a s4 rewrite where will stays in hawkins (and it changes everything)
