We might not actually see Stranger Things Season 3 until 2019, but Saturday Night Live has an early look at what's coming up next for Eleven and her imminently pubescent pal, Mike Wheeler.

This sketch channels what was arguably the worst episode of the series -- the one where Eleven ventures off, discovers punk rock, and meets up with others like her -- as a platform for introducing an increasingly lame series of powers and their side effects.

We all know Eleven can move stuff with her mind, but she gets tiny nosebleeds afterward. Not so dissimilar from the man who can start fires by thinking about it, but he throws up a little in his mouth whenever he does; or the woman who can read minds, but she farts whenever she does.

It's SNL cast member Aidy Bryant steals the sketch: She has the power to do a "pretty good" Borat impression, but whenever she busts it out she slips into a two-day coma.

Nailed it.
