8 "Stranger Things" Season 4 Plot Holes That Are Turning Our Heads Upside Down

In their interview with Variety, the Duffer Brothers addressed a larger plot hole noticed by eagle-eyed fans. When Eleven and Will take Mike to the Rink-O-Mania, the date is supposedly March 22, which was revealed to be Will's birthday back in season two, but no one mentions it in the episode or throughout the season. Fans thought this might explain why Will is upset and moody during this scene, or serve as an early clue that he has unrequited romantic feelings for Mike, but the brothers admitted the date has no significance, because they forgot it was Will's birthday as well when they were writing the script.
