Dr. Brenner (Matthew Modine) dies at the end of episode eight, titled "Papa." During the episode, Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), Dr. Owens (Paul Reiser), and Dr. Brenner are all at odds over the best steps to take to stop Vecna. Dr. Brenner thinks Eleven isn't ready for the fight and needs to work on her powers more, but Dr. Owens says they promised her the lab wasn't a prison and she should be able to leave when she wants.
Dr. Brenner locks up both Eleven and Dr. Owens, but his plans are waylaid when Lt. Col. Jack Sullivan (Sherman Augustus) and the army flood the facility. They plan on killing Eleven, who they think is responsible for the murders in Hawkins. Dr. Brenner flees with Eleven in his arms, but when they reach the surface, an army helicopter starts shooting at them. Dr. Brenner is shot multiple times, and the sniper moves to take out Eleven next. But he's distracted by a civilian car carrying Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Will (Noah Schnapp), Jonathan (Charlie Heaton), and Argyle (Eduardo Franco). By the time he turns his attention back to Eleven, she's using her powers to bring the helicopter down. As Dr. Brennder dies, he remotely frees Eleven from the shock collar he put on her so she's free to fight Vecna.
