The dreamland she\u2019s in fascinates me, I love her scenes with Max, and I specifically love her outfit. That\u2019s because it\u2019s the same outfit that the figurine Mike gives her in Episode 1 is wearing. You can clearly see that too by comparing the image below with the photo at the top of this section:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Mike's Holly the Heroic figurine.

So, I think that signifies that she\u2019s turning into Holly the Heroic. And based on what Mike said about this hero earlier in the season, I have a theory about how she\u2019ll help save the day.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Holly holding a little figurine as Mike looks at her. \" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/_mrnJaQyVAZSj3F0hV1VjA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/cinemablend_388\/82c2f1aa2c00668489d07fd713906a67\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Credit: Netflix<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Will Holly The Heroic Will Be The Hero Of Volume 2?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As I said, I think the key to the meaning of these clothes lies in the conversation Mike had with Holly when he gave her this figurine. During a heartfelt conversation in Episode 1, Finn Wolfhard\u2019s character comforted his sister and told her how he stays brave. He explained that Mike the Brave really helps him, and then proceeded to give her the little figurine like his that was named \u201cHolly the Heroic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">So, I\u2019ve developed a theory that Mike\u2019s explanation of who Holly the Heroic is will directly parallel what his little sister does in Volume 2. With that in mind, take a look at the powers this character has, according to her brother:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I was gonna wait a few more years, but \u2013 she\u2019s a cleric, which means she has divine powers. She can cast spells of protection to ward against evil spirits. And even cooler, she can cast a dimension door, which can teleport you to anywhere you visualize. I mean, come on, can this lame-o Mr. Whatsit do any of this?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">After saying that, Mike promised that Holly the Heroic would keep her safe, and I really think she will. In fact, I think Holly has transformed into Holly the Heroic. Her clothes signify that, and I\u2019d say her bravery in this new world does too.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Now, the question becomes, how will she be a hero? Well, I think Mike said it. Maybe she has some kind of \u201cdivine powers,\u201d kind of like <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/tv\/articles\/stranger-things-duffer-brothers-clarify-162707078.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Will\u2019s new powers;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>Will\u2019s new powers<\/u><\/a> that turned him into a \u201cSorcerer.\u201d Maybe she\u2019ll be a cleric who can literally \u201ccast a dimension door\u201d that can get her out of Mr. Whatsit\u2019s world, and maybe <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/stranger-things-creators-latest-season-174518060.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Max out of her coma;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>Max out of her coma<\/u><\/a>. Plus, Episode 6 is called \u201cEscape From Camazotz,\u201d which ties into Holly reading <em>A Wrinkle in Time<\/em> and calling Henry\/Vecna Mr. Whatsit\u2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Overall, I do think she\u2019s a key to defeating the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/vecna-stranger-things-222738266.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:big bad Vecna;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>big bad Vecna<\/u><\/a>.
