Summary
Mike has learned about the five stages of grief. He sees all of his friends go through the motions of denial (insisting El somehow must have survived), anger (at Dr. Kay and the military), bargaining (swearing they will do anything for her to return), and depression (lying in bed with the image of her being swept away imprinted in their minds).
But, eventually, for all of them, there is acceptance. The military is gone, convinced that there are no more children with superpowers in Hawkins. El is dead. She made her decision, and she isn’t coming back.
Mike doesn’t know which stage of grief he’s in, but he hasn’t accepted anything.
Or: Mike doesn’t know how to live after El’s death and has no idea how he’s supposed to move on.
