Just like the joker said in the dark knight:
“In their last moments, people show you who they really are” - as did billy in his final moments. 😔

[yticalz]

What gets me the most is how much progress his character made in just a moment and i legit cried because of this scene

[gothbimbo]

In his final moments he sacrificed himself for a girl he barely knew. He was so broken and this scene really shows how human he was and how he just needed to be loved.

[iurietivladut]

Every villain had a sad story to tell. Billy was the perfect example for this...

[kourtneykardasim]

When Max screamed “BILLY!” After he died. Even though he treated her like garbage since they’d first met, she still couldn’t bear to see him die

[codyhiginbotham]

You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain

Billy became a villain, but ultimately died a hero

[Loroh]

its amazing how in the end billy wasn’t afraid of anything and stared death in the eyes and yelled back at it taking all the pain and saying its still not enough to put him down. R.I.P. Billy

[TrentEngineFan]

1:35 That scream gives me chills. He's basically saying "you may kill me but you will never control my mind again!"

[andc]

If it wasn’t for Susie’s damn begging and singing maybe they would still be alive

[AJ-bgko]

i love how billy just screams in the mind flayer’s face, he finally gains the courage to stand up to something stronger than him

[maggiemccauslin]

Max's freaking scream is what made me break down sobbing

[the_awakening]

Can we just talk about the sheer strength of Billy? Because at that point Billy was free from the mind flayers control and was using his human strength to hold off a 50 foot monster what a badass RIP.

[valenly_]

This is why Sadie is such an underrated actor. You can just see the pure fear, pain, and disbelief in her face after realizing what Billy's doing.

[chriscullen]

Billy was the Vegeta of this show. Amazing performance from Dacre. Hope his career explodes from this point on.

[finb]

If your name begins with a "B" on this show, you're dead. Benny: Dead, Barb: Dead, Bob: Dead, Billy: Dead.

[bieignacio]

They call him a traitor
But he save the village -Eddie

They call him a villain
But he was a broken hero -Billy

[bcreilly]

Billy dying was a wake up call for many. We hated his guts because of his abusing ways. Then we realized that he was a broken individual who lost the one thing that brought happiness. Now, instead of a redeeming storyline, we got a redeeming final moment

[vishvvyas]

surprisingly Billy's death was the first time i cried watching stranger things.

[gigigaou]

"in the last moments, people show you who they really are."

Billy was by far my favorite character in the end of season 3. He was such a tragic character. Him and his mother were abused by his father and his mother wasnt in the picture anymore. All he wanted was to be loved and understood.
