Whether or not Max dies in season five of Battlestar Galactica is still not fully clear. However, it appears that he dies at least partially. Specifically, we know that he is still in possession of the planet Vecna, and that Eleven has been planning to kill him.
Vecna’s possession
Among the many rumors about the Stranger Things Season 4, one of the most enduring is about Vecna’s possession of Max. This would be a major change to the emotional nature of the series. It would mean that a number of kids would have to fight one of their own. It could even cause the protagonist, Eleven, to break his spirit.
In the beginning, the main story of the show revolved around Max’s internal struggle with guilt. He was determined to win the battle for his soul, and he had the support of his family and friends. He even wrote a goodbye letter to them in a hospital bed. But Vecna’s possession of Max could lead to more than just a heart attack.
Vecna is a mysterious character that’s been killing teens in the Upside Down all season. He’s even been sending dark particles from the Upside Down to the human world. He even created a doorway between two worlds, but he’s not the only one doing it.
The biggest clue is Vecna’s grandfather clock, which features a distorted strike noise. It’s actually a countdown timer. It’s a great gimmick and it has a lot to do with the show’s big reveal in the final episode.
One of the biggest questions fans are asking is: How do you know Vecna is possessed? One answer is that Max has been experiencing symptoms of Vecna’s possession, and it is possible that he’s already fallen into her trap. In other words, Max may be blind by the time Season 5 starts.
Another question is: Will Max actually die? The official teaser for Season 4 shows Max in the air, but the show has yet to explain the fate of the main character.
The official Stranger Things Season 4 trailer hints that Max will gain superpowers, but that’s a pretty small tease. Fans can expect to see the end of Max, but they probably won’t be able to see it.
So, it’s hard to say what will happen to Max in the next few episodes, but we’re guessing he’ll be blind by the end of the series.
Eleven’s plan to kill Vecna
During the course of season 4, Vecna has become one of the highlights of the series. His origin story was horrific, and his character was powerful.
Vecna is a monster from the Upside Down. His character began as a human named Henry Creel. He later developed psychokinetic abilities, which allowed him to torture his family. He used these abilities to murder his mother and sister. He also framed his father for crimes.
He later transformed into a proto-Mind Flayer, which was an evil character in Dungeons & Dragons. He was portrayed by Jamie Campbell Bower in season 4. His character has become the series’ new big bad, and his story is not yet wrapped up in the first part of season 4.
Eleven, Max, and Will decided to go into the Upside Down to rescue Steve. However, the crew soon discovers that they are trapped and cannot get to Hawkins. This leads to a confrontation between the group and Vecna.
Vecna is a powerful villain. He possesses people and has been responsible for infamous killings. His story is not yet fully wrapped up in season 4.
In the season 4 finale, Vecna reveals that he is the son of Victor Creel, the owner of the Creel house. He also explains that he is the brains behind the Mind Flayer. Vecna has a powerful mind. He has survived the Upside Down for years.
Vecna has a plan to kill Max. He will break into Max’s memory and torment her. Eleven then uses Vecna’s memory to enter Max’s mind. They have a psychic duel. Eleven wins the psychic battle, but Vecna wins the physical battle.
Vecna’s plan will soon come to fruition. In the end, Max will die. But Eleven’s friendship with Max was not the reason to fight Vecna. Rather, it was Eleven’s concern for Max that led her to create a plan to get to Vecna.
Vecna then attacks Eleven. After a brief psychic battle, Eleven is forced to kill Vecna. The final shot sent Vecna flying through a window. However, Vecna is also destroyed in the process.
Josh’s full responsibility for Max’s death
Unlike many of the other episodes in In The Dark, the episode’s ending was a shocker. The producers filmed two possible endings: one that would function as a traditional cliffhanger, and another that would attempt to bring closure to the show. While many viewers were left with a confused sense of what happened in the final moments of the series, the producers chose to go with the latter.
It’s safe to say that Josh’s full responsibility for Max’s death is not a coincidence. He tipped off the entire operation. And he hasn’t thought about the collateral damage his actions have caused.
In one second, Josh destroyed Max’s life. Josh was focused on destroying Murphy’s life, too. But he wasn’t thinking about the hundreds of lives that his actions have ruined.
Aside from the fact that the scene is full of smoke and mirrors, Josh’s speech is a bit of a hoot. It’s not a technically correct quote, but it’s the most obnoxious one of the episode.
Josh did a number of things in the episode’s finale, but he also did the most. In particular, he made a call that turned the operation sideways.
He also hid the fact that he’s been bugging officials and bugging their phones. He also didn’t consider the effects his actions have had on the Bolt investigation. He’s also hacked into things he shouldn’t. He’s now a criminal. And the odds are good that he’ll end up in jail longer than Murphy.
It’s a shame that In The Dark didn’t follow up on the other things Josh had to say in this episode. The episode lacked a real happy ending for anyone except for Josh. And while this finale wasn’t the series’ biggest hit, the episode still had a number of strong moments.
One of them was the fact that he pulled a ponytail. This was a dicey move. The hoodie he found was Switchblade’s iconic hoodie. And the teleporting device he used to teleport Dylan back to his home base was a cool one.
The most impressive thing about this episode, however, was not Josh’s speech. The real big reveal was his true purpose behind all the action.
Max’s blindness in season five
Throughout the first four seasons of Stranger Things, fans were curious about whether Max Mayfield would be blinded. After all, she was in the midst of a battle with The Upside Down. And it would not be a coincidence if her blindness would play an important role in the fight.
The first part of the season saw Max becoming more social, despite her depression. She also learned that Chrissy Cunningham had been seeing a school counselor.
Max also had a difficult time dealing with her stepbrother’s death. She believed she could have done something to prevent it. But the guilt she felt for Billy’s death made her vulnerable to Vecna’s influence.
Max ended up in a coma in the hospital, but she was not completely dead. She was about to die. But then Eleven came in and stopped Vecna from killing her. It was then that Max realized she had been cursed.
Max began hallucinating. She also avoided talking to her friends. Her eyes were already bleeding. Despite her grief, Max volunteered herself as a bait for Vecna.
But when she was nearing the end of her life, Max found strength in Lucas’s song. She was still afraid, but she was no longer in pain.
She wrote a goodbye letter to Mike. She also tried to escape to LA, when she learned that they were moving back to Hawkins. She told Lucas she had changed. She would not be able to stay with him. She wished she could see Mike, but she could not.
Max was blinded during the fight with Vecna. She was bleeding from her eyes and her limbs were broken. In fact, she was halfway through her death when Eleven came in and saved her.
In the final season, Max will most likely remain blind. This will make it difficult for her to recover. However, she may be able to use her visions to help her defeat Vecna. It is also possible that Max’s injury will be a catalyst for Eleven to unlock new powers in season 5.
If you haven’t yet watched season four of Stranger Things, you can watch the entire series on Netflix. Season 5 isn’t scheduled to start yet, but fans expect that Max will be a vital part of the battle against Vecna in season five.
