“Yellowjackets” Season 2 wasted no time in getting to the darker themes the show has been teasing since the pilot: In the second episode, winkingly titled “Edible Complex,” the stranded soccer team, who we know eventually resorted to cannibalism, finally goes there. [MAJOR SPOILERS follow.]
In the Season 2 opener, we learned that Shauna, unable to get past Jackie’s (Ella Purnell) death, is still having conversations with her dead friend two months later. The ground has been too cold to bury Jackie, but Shauna agrees to a farewell via funeral pyre. As the girls sleep, the fire melts snow from the tree branches above, which douses the fire and ends up being the perfect environment for a posthumous barbecue.
