Dude got the Will Byers treatment.

Literally the same exact thing too: barfing up an entity relating to his prior capture, soon after his initial liberation, directly segueing into a later conflict

honestly not the biggest fan of this approach. showing the incredibly rough journey he has head, to rebuild his life, post a top 10 most traumatic experience ever, is much more interesting to me than return of the sequids, but one's on earth now... using the same guy as a host. it's just a bit played out

Same, the storyline for shapesmith, rus, and the sequids was good and had a fitting battle/conclusion. Not super interested in extending that any longer with so much more interesting stuff going on with the prominent characters.
