I Dont Care What The Rest Of You Stans Think, Dr. Brenner Is Dope.

I don’t care what the rest of you stans think, Dr. Brenner is dope.

Is that okay?

Dr. Brenner’s would probably be some New Wave track with compressed guitars and gated drums. Think Nik Kershaw’s Cloak and Dagger, Tears for Fears' Memories Fade or The Fixx’s Opinions.

There’s only one Papa and that’s Martin, bitch.

Brenner & Eleven Theory

Eleven is actually a clone of Dr. Brenner's daughter. Some sort of Dr. Fuji and Ambertwo situation like in Pokemon. Maybe Brenner's daughter died in a horrific accident so Eleven was planted as an experiment as not to create suspicion at the lab. Maybe he's not supposed to be experimenting with gene splicing and cloning. That may explain why he wanted her back so badly, she's a copy of his daughter.

Or Eleven is a clone of Hopper's daughter, thus Hop's attachment to her. Perhaps the dna from his dead daughter used as an experiment to see if telekinesis can be passed from mother to child.

Adding to this theory, when Brenner gives El the flower in that S1 flashback, the flower is an African Violet, a plant that can be spliced and cloned. I still think this is a small subtext that is subtlety telling that us she's a clone.

Nothing puts me off to never wanting to watch a television series ever like when people describe a show as "dumb fun". It usually indicates a show with either a) poor writing and direction or b) talks down to the audience.
