Sunday night and I got into a run of Yellowjackets on Showtime. Season two had some real gut punches in it, many of which centered around Shauna.

Seriously, the section of episode 6 that dealt with Shauna’s birth of her baby boy was traumatic in all the best ways possible. It left me with a hole in my gut that just was painful. Seeing the baby born successfully only to find out that the baby did not survive childbirth was horrendous. Some of the imagery from this section was tough too, especially the scene where everyone was devouring the baby.

Plus, the absolutely brutal assault by Shauna against Charlotte as a way to get her anger out was difficult to watch. Lottie let her just brutalize her. This was the first time that I found Lottie to be more than a crazy person/sus character.

With Lotte, Natalie, Shauna, Van, Taissa, and Misty all together at the retreat, they seemed to have had a wonderful evening until Jeff called and dropped the bombshell that the police found the remains of Adam. I guess Misty is not as great at that as we thought.

Misty had a huge series of episodes too, as she inadvertently killed Crystal. Crystal fell off a cliff after Misty had confessed to destroying the plane’s black box. Then, Misty was having a major freak out during the birth of the baby with there being so much blood on her hands, literally. Misty came back to step up, but the baby still died.

We knew something was going to happen with this baby since we know that present day Shauna does not have a son, but it was still tough to watch.

Although, there is still a chance that everything that was going down in the wilderness is a dream-like state and that we do not know exactly what has happened. However, it does sound like whatever evil that was there in the wilderness with them found its way back to the real world with them. Why it is just now showing its ugly head, I don’t know.

I really thought Coach Ben was a goner too as he seemed ready to throw himself off the same cliff that Crystal fell off. Misty was there as well, but she seemingly got him to stop his suicidal tendencies. I still do not think he is long for the world, because we have not seen him in present day as of this moment.

We did meet present day Van though, which was great to see. Those who I have not seen in present day, I think they are dead. Van does admit to having cancer and only having a few months to live.

There are just three episodes left in season two, which has really picked up the pace recently.
