A Look Back at Season 2’s Explosive Finale
Season 2 of Yellowjackets was nothing short of a rollercoaster ride. The girls faced unimaginable challenges, starting with Coach Ben Scott setting their cabin ablaze. In the present day, things got even more intense. Misty Quigley's boyfriend, Walter Tattersall, helped Shauna Sadecki and her husband escape blame for Adam Martin’s murder, despite their guilt. But his actions came at a cost—he killed Kevyn Tan as part of their master plan.
But the real gut punch came when Misty accidentally killed Natalie Scatorccio with a phenobarbital injection. Misty had intended to use the syringe on Lisa, who was trying to save Lottie Matthews. Fans were understandably devastated, and Juliette Lewis, who played adult Natalie, addressed the backlash. "I very much knew. I think I’m good for a series for two seasons," she said in a September 2024 interview with Variety. "It’s a different kind of work. So what do I want to say? I can’t wait to see the third season. I think the writing team is so phenomenal. They had many storylines that were always to be realized, and so that’s what they’re doing.”
Even though characters may meet their end, they could always return in visions, dreams, or flashbacks. The world of Yellowjackets keeps fans guessing, and that’s what makes it so thrilling.
For Juliette Lewis, this was a natural creative transition. "For me, there’s so much in our industry with series that’s exciting, but in my creative DNA, I like moviemaking,” she explained. “It’s something I thoroughly understand with a single director, a finite period of time and knowing beginning, middle and an end. And I really relish those confines.”
But hey, just because a character meets their end doesn’t mean they're gone for good. In the world of Yellowjackets, anyone can return in visions, dreams, or future scenes. Keep your eyes peeled!
Is Ella Purnell’s Jackie Taylor Returning?
Another beloved character making a comeback is Ella Purnell’s Jackie Taylor, who met her demise at the end of Season 1. She appeared in Shauna’s visions in Season 2, and it seems likely she'll continue to haunt her in Season 3. Fans caught a glimpse of Jackie in the Season 3 trailer shared by Showtime. She appears with snow in her hair, sitting in a bathroom, hinting that it's a vision for adult Shauna.
