22 Who commands the military quarantine in 1987? Dr. Kay

24 What speech does Dustin give in the epilogue? The valedictorian's, dedicated to Eddie
25 Where does Hopper want to take Joyce after his proposal? In Montauk, in the state of New York

Why MontaukThe name Montauk is no accident: it is the show's working title in 2015, and the Long Island town where the story was supposed to take place before it was moved to Indiana. The show ends where it had started on paper.

Your score

From 0 to 10: you have seen the show, once, a long time ago; rewatch season 1. From 11 to 19: you are a fan, and you are missing a few details of the ending. 20 and more: you can run the Hellfire Club, and probably write this article. 25: you are Dustin.

How to organize the quiz

For a night, plan four rounds of six to eight questions, by level, with a twenty-sided die to break ties: the highest score wins, as at the Hellfire Club table. The last season's questions are played at the end of the night, once you have checked that everyone has seen the ending; otherwise, you stop at level 3.

The best questions are not about dates but about scenes: who catches Steve on the tower, what Dustin gives Dart in the tunnels, what Nancy shoots above the lake. Those are the ones you remember, and the ones you want to rewatch afterward.

Takeaway25 questions, three levels, answers included. Level 1: the waffles, the Demogorgon, Starcourt. Level 2: Jane, Dart, Henry Creel, 1979. Level 3: Camazotz, Kay, the axe, Montauk.
