      I love how they framed this scene, especially the first half. They're directly facing each other but the toilet partition provides a divide that lets them both express their emotions perfectly: Steve's rising sincerity and Robin's crestfallen despair. It was so bold and unexpected to *NOT* have them end up together (what a swerve) but geez do I love how it developed both of their character's even more.

    A lot of people think Steve’s reaction is bad because he starts ‘criticising’ her choice in women. As someone who is queer, if I came out and I got this reaction, I would feel so much relief. Steve isn’t criticising her. He knows she’s terrified, and he wants to reassure her that it’s okay, and he starts making fun of Tammy to show her that she deserves way better.
    I just really love this scene because I hope my friends will have the same reaction when I come out, and I just feel comforted by this.

      Media when male and male have a platonic friendship: they are GAY and will express it in a GAY shy timid way. And then we will introduce homophobic characters that end up becoming GAY and joining a monkeypox orgy with the two GAY men
      Tldr; Hollywood sexualizes male platonic friendships and platonizes male-female relations.

      @@svenr.3803 I think it's a little bit of both. On the one hand, Steve has come such a long way from the arrogant, judgemental d-bag he was in season 1, so it is totally in character that he would be so accepting of Robin regardless of her sexuality or the fact that she didn't reciprocate his romantic feelings for her. On the other hand, he probably understands on some level that coming out to someone (especially back then in middle America) is / was a pretty big deal, and ripping on her choice of crush is his way of showing that nothing has changed between them. Without explicitly saying so Steve is showing Robin that he accepts and supports her, because that's what friends do.

      Agreed. I can't think of any other single scene from any other Netflix original that instantly won me over this hard, and that's saying something. It's the perfect confluence of expert cinematography and blocking, character development, relationship development, dialogue, score, acting and pacing, not to mention being perfectly adept social commentary and progressive in its normalcy and rawness. It's essentially a three act short condensed into six minutes (and yet, rich and generous in its length in the context of a television episode, especially for a show like Stranger Things). Plus it's the moment people go from liking Robin to loving Maya Hawke, because at least in this show, this is her shining moment and she knocks it out of the park. Personally, I'd have loved for her to get an Emmy nod out of this, because it's a masterclass of understatement and expressionism. Everything about this is a masterclass. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if professors showcase this in television writing classes.

    Robin's emotions are joyfully explored in this scene, but it's worth saying that this is also a turning point for Steve. I think he really shows his maturity in this moment. Instead of being distraught by Robin's rejection, he digests it and lets it wash right over him. Their friendship outweighs any fleeting romantic disappointment. He embraces it for what it is, accepting and adapting like an emotionally intelligent adult. It's like he's really, finally left high school behind.

      Preach! And what makes it even better is that the reason why he forced himself to get over the rejection so fast is because he could see in how much distress she was - scared that only he will stop being friends with her, but also that he could go into some sort of homophobic freakout and start insulting her, maybe even attack her, or that he could tell everyone and turn her into a total social outcast for the whole Hawkins.

    People who say that the sudden change for him to become a supporter of LGBTQ after being against it in season 1 makes no sense are wrong.
    I think the biggest reason for his sudden change as that he was the popular kid in school, none of his friends were LGBTQ he thought only the weird kids were.
    And now he’s become friends with someone who was unpopular in school, realized how cool she is and how popularity doesn’t mean anything, and now realizing that Robin is gay he’s gonna support it because he cares about her. Sometimes it takes a personal experience for you to be invested in something.
    For example someone who came from nothing would be a lot more likely to help the poor than someone who’s always been very rich.
