Alexi and Hopper
A handful of memes also focused on the relationship between Alexi and Hopper, which was frustrating and funny all at once. Viewers seemed to latch on to Alexi as a wholesome character, and mourned his loss, along with Hopper's final fate.
Some of the memes joked about the pair's back and forth on the cherry slurpee Alexi wanted.
