Things escalate between Shauna and her human popsicle of a bff, and she pushes the body. It’s fucked up! The others in the cabin are concerned, but not enough to actually do anything about it, all a little unsure what to say to someone who is talking to their best friend, especially when that someone is pregnant with her dead best friend’s boyfriend’s baby. She never got to confess any of of this to Jackie, so now she’s confessing to her corpse. This is all Shauna’s inner turmoil bursting to the surface. “Jackie” wants to know how Shauna and Jeff started, and she uncovers that Shauna kissed Jeff first. But for now, let’s talk about Shauna in the shed with a diary, chatting it up with her dead best friend.Īfter their relatively chill - but disturbing - game of MASH, Shauna later in the episode argues with Jackie’s corpse about Jeff. There’s a special third timeline, too, which I’ll get into. The present day timeline hasn’t moved forward as much, starting pretty much immediately after Nat is kidnapped from her motel room and after Adam has been killed and disposed of. As far as timelines in the premiere go, the wilderness timeline picks up two months after Jackie got freezer-burned to death following her explosive fight with Shauna that saw her banished from the cabin. But now we see the origins of this haunting. We’ve seen Adult Shauna imagine and talk to dead Teen Jackie in season one. I’m going to skip ahead a bit to my favorite scenes of the episode: Teen Shauna talking to Dead Jackie. Lottie takes credit for the fact that they keep coming back alive and also makes sure to fingerpaint the Yellowjackets symbol - whose meaning we still don’t really know - on the window. Before they head out, they participate - somewhat hesitantly - in a lil ritual with Lottie where she draws on them with ash and makes them drink tea spiked with her blood. Nat and Travis ready themselves to head out to both look for game and for Javi, who has been missing ever since Shauna told him in a demon voice to run on the night of the Doomcoming “party.” Those porn magazines they found when they first arrived at the cabin sure do come in handy as additional insulation under their animal pelts and cobbled-together winter fits! Everyone is doing great. Yes, continuing its early-cemented legacy as having some of the best needledrops on television, Yellowjackets season two opens with one of my favorite #sadgirl musicians Sharon Van Etten crooning: It’s winter! The meat from the bear slain by Teen Lottie is almost all gone! Adult Lottie is here! Teen Shauna sees dead people! WAIT IS THAT “SEVENTEEN” BY SHARON VAN ETTEN? Welcome back to Yellowjackets, where things have changed.

Today is a great day to become an A+ member, which helps keep the majority of content on Autostraddle free to read, including these recaps! A+ members can also join me for a virtual watch party of the premiere tonight at 8 p.m. If you’re new to Autostraddle or only here to read Yellowjackets recaps, welcome! You’re part of our cannibal cult now. If there’s something I didn’t talk about in the recap that you want to talk about, hop on into the comments where I am very active and love to hear theories, predictions, and thoughts. T he Last Buzz section at the end is for any extraneous things I still want to touch on that don’t fit in anywhere else in the recap. I tend to focus on overarching themes and the points that standout the most to me and move around nonlinearly. My recaps are not image-heavy, do not go perfectly chronologically, and rarely touch on every single thing that happens. Before we get into the recap properly, I just want to remind regular Autostraddle readers that I write recaps a bit differently than some of the rest of our team.
Do you know how long I’ve been waiting to type those words!!! I am so, so excited to be back recapping my favorite show on television and the main reason I won’t stop talking about cannibalism in my everyday life.
