What Really Happened When Stranger Things' Joe Keery and Parks and Rec's Ben Schwartz Met

Thanks to the Late Late Show for making Internet dreams come true.

Thanks to the Internet your wildest Stranger Things fan theory has been confirmed—and then taken a step further. Yes, we're talking about the "revelation" that Steve Harrington from Stranger Things is the father of Parks and Recreation's Jean-Ralphio Saperstein. Sorry Henry Winkler.

Parks and Rec's Ben Schwartz and Stranger Things' Joe Keery tweeted photos and some video from their meeting and promised more was to come. They kept good on their promise with a Late Late Show segment. So, thanks are in order to James Corden it seems.

By the way, Parks and Rec co-creator Mike Schur basically confirmed the theory earlier this summer. "We will neither confirm nor deny that Steve is Jean-Ralphio's real dad. But yes, Steve is definitely his real dad," Schur tweeted.

In the segment above, Keery and Schwartz are interviewed about their resemblance and come to the conclusion that yes, Keery is Joe's father…IRL? Maybe? It gets fuzzy.

Anyway, they do lots of father-son things together, like shots, shave, ride bikes, weird handshakes, etc.

Moral of the story? Bless the Internet for all that it brings you, according this Stranger Things theory and subsequent meeting.

Now if there's a character with the surname Knope in Stranger Things season two we're going to lose it.
