Did Steve Die?
I noticed something....
In the finale, Steve almost falls but Jonathan saves him. The way Dustin reacts in E6 I believe is more suitable after the fall scene. I now believe like many others that Dustin is a time traveler somehow....
Key word: "Again"
"You're gonna fall"
"...can't deal with it again"
"...don't let it happen again"
Foreshadowing or a past occurrence?
Dustin witnessed Steve actually die and he can't deal with it again. We(I) thought it could have been about Eddie but what if it was Steve?
Dustin is described as the "curiosity voyager"
Time is a curiosity.
Extra: In T 85, Dustin uses a camera but he doesn't use it in ST. Who loves cameras and has a passion for photography? Jonathan so maybe there is a connection between them.
He voyages through time. Very interesting that Dustin is the only one that has witnessed two people almost falling to their deaths.
I wonder what made this timeline different. Maybe it's this...
Before this, Dustin warns them through the walkie talkie that if she shoots it they will all die. What if Steve died because she shot it? And what if the timeline where he doesn't is this one....
Watch this scene guys. The way he held the gun was instinctual and swift. I'm still surprised that Nancy's first decision was to shoot it. Is that Nancy? 👀
What if Nancy did listen to him?
Jonathan stops Nancy from shooting the exotic matter and also saves Steve from dying. Jonathan, Steve's hero :) There may be something here.
Jane says "we are all time travelers if we think about it" in S4. I assume she is one as well because of how Mike's fall in S1 was executed. Jane saved him just like Jonathan saved Steve from falling.
Also, I watched a video by flowersun8774 on Tiktok where, in S2, Dustin's knowledge of Steve's bat that he used in Jonathan's house in S1 was questioned and thinking about it ...how did he know about the bat when it was the first time he met Steve? Unless he was at Jonathan's house in S1 E8. Flowersun8774 theorised this. This is getting really interesting!
Finally look at this.....
He looks so relieved yet so terrified. What has he seen?!?!?! All those jokes the Duffoons made about killing off Steve and also the fact that they said he was meant to die in S1...maybe he did in another timeline. It's all speculation but who knows?
Thanks for reading. Hope this makes sense:)
