If you didn’t squeeze in a full Stranger Things rewatch this past month, you’re in good company. Volume II arrives tonight at 8 p.m. ET, and most fans are still catching up after Netflix dropped the first four episodes back on November 26.
Luckily, you don’t need to revisit every season to get your bearings again. A small group of episodes does the job, and one in particular is absolutely worth your time.

If you only have room for one episode today, make it Sorcerer. At 1 hour and 23 minutes, it’s the longest episode from the first batch and the one that most clearly feeds into what we’re about to see in Volume II.
Fans have flagged it as the chapter where everything starts lining up, and it’s the last thing viewers saw before tonight’s drop. It’s the cleanest, quickest way to get your head back in Season 5.

Here are the four episodes that premiered on November 26, including their runtimes:
Chapter One: The Crawl – 1 hour 8 minutesChapter Two: The Vanishing of Holly Wheeler – 54 minutesChapter Three: The Turnbow Trap – 1 hour 6 minutesChapter Four: Sorcerer – 1 hour 23 minutesIf you already watched them last month but don’t have time to rewatch all four, Chapter Three and Chapter Four give you the strongest reset going into Christmas night.

Before Season 5 premiered, Ross and Matt Duffer, the creators of Stranger Things, spoke with The Hollywood Reporter and suggested revisiting a small group of older episodes if fans didn’t want to rewatch the whole show.
Their list included:
Season 2 Chapter Four: Will the WiseSeason 2 Chapter Six: The SpySeason 4 Chapter Seven: Massacre at Hawkins LabSeason 4 Chapter Nine: The PiggybackThese were the episodes they said were most useful for understanding the mythology and character arcs still unfolding in the final season.
