Yellowjackets Season 3 Episode 8 ‘A Normal, Boring Life’ SPOILER Recap, Breakdown + Ending Explained

Let’s gooo

That episode changed everything

Now I have no idea who killed Lottie. I'm guessing it was Walter.

That last scene!😮

I literally had to pick my jaw up off the floor after that last scene OMG lol

Omg shit has officially hit the fan 🐝

I had a feeling they totally got us with Melissa's wife.

I think travis was going to leave them there.

My name is Barbara and I loved this episode

BTW I love how campy they make Jeff and Callie's scenes, they're two of my faves on screen together.

My dream thing would be listening to all my cds, wbu?

I think callie has the note. Actually if I can remember correctly when she got the package I remember a note being in there with the tape and I think she does have something to do with Lottie’s death. It’s her or Walter I’m leaning more towards her, but Walter is still playing games with Shawna and the yellow jackets and trying to split them up. Callie definitely has an ulterior motive and remember we didn’t get to see the whole conversation her and Lottie had that night and what all she told her While Misty was passed out. They’re paying a lot of attention to Callie this season. Also, I think van might end up taking her own life to try to save Taissa from doing something bad, because remember in the 90s van mentioned the suicide King? Could be some foreshadowing? I don’t know just some thoughts. Sorry so long.

Man honestly, this is all over the place but in a good way. I haven’t watched a show that people/I get this invested into since maybe breaking bad as a series haha

I have a feeling that n current time might have more of Mellissa’s logic, but there could also be more to it than just Shauna making up everything. There must be a reason to be triggering all this. I hate weekly episodes 😂😂

How does adult Melissa know all this stuff about how Nat died and all the info about adult comings and goings.Lottie in a cult etc I thought Melissa led a quiet life away from the madness

By the end the girls all decide to stay. That's odd to me. I hope Nat and some others decide to seek refuge. My guess is they all stay. We know Shauna and the group ate Cody and Hanna. In season one the women said if it weren't for Nat they would never have made it back. So hope Nat goes on her own seeking help.

👍✌️

I’m starting to think Shauna is an unreliable narrator. Things that she has done or seen we cannot trust. I’m thinking Shauna is the one they have to be worried about in present time and Callie and Jeffs conversation makes me think it even more. As for Lottie, Shauna and Tai wanting to stay, I feel like a few things could happen. There’s a chance Shauna could convince more people stay (the survivors of present day) and the ones who go are the ones who don’t survive. They could decide to split off into groups making the group as a whole weaker. The main key to their rescue right now is Kody so if he dies they can’t make it to the rescue point so I could see Shauna or Lottie killing him. For a long while through the season I kinda figured that Melissa was Hilary Swank but when they threw Alex into the mix I didn’t factor in that Melissa could have married Alex which is just messed up on her part, by the way. The way the show is going its making everything that we thought was “supernatural” into them being more traumatized and messed up then we realize. Also we have been given logical explanations for the supernatural occurrences in the wilderness. I feel like it’s all in their heads and feeding into each other’s instability is making things worse, hence Lotties sudden death and Shaunas breakdown thinking she’s being targeted. Shauna is someone everyone will have to watch out for in the present timeline. Just some of my thoughts after that, I can’t wait to see what happens next.

I think one of the reasons for Shauna wanting to stay is her baby’s body 😔

When Melissa told Shauna she liked having her life blow up, it was the same thing Adam said to her. I think she's trying to run from a 'boring life' similar to her mother's. I also think Akilah is drawn to the wilderness as Loti, Shauna, and Tai are, but each has a different reason. She's finally feeling useful having a 'gift', but when Travis told her she wasn't special, something was set off. I believe she thinks the animals and woods will die without her, so she may vote to stay. Callie definitely has the letter and may be playing Jeff as a daddy's girl. She either wants Shauna to get help or leave.

What if those DNA from Lottie nails were Callie, maybe she's a killer ?

I think the moths represent Shauna and the light a normal life. Before the crash, she's drawn to Jackie. She doesn't really like Jackie, but Jackie is normal and Shauna tries to be normal.

After the rescue, she married Jeff, who loves her unconditionally and represents her best chance at a "normal" life.

Unfortunately, the wilderness proved that's just not who Shauna is and I think they're heading toward a heartbreaking (and probably heart stabbing) showdown between Jeff and Shauna.

If I were one of the teenagers in the 90s timeline, the first thing I would do upon returning home, after hugging my family and crying with relief, joy and gratitude, would be to take something like a 2-hour long hot shower and shampoo, shaving my legs and hairy armpits, then brushing my teeth and gargling with mouthwash. Then I would ask my Mom or Dad or guardian to drive me into the city for a large "everything" pizza. Later that night, I'd be glued to the tv to try to catch up on all my fave tv shows. But that's just me...

Just found your channel. Great commentary. Hi Sam! Shauna is BANANAS

First, there's a reason Hillary Swank is a 2x Oscar winner. That scene between Shauna and Melissa had me on the edge of my seat! Phenomenal acting. No matter how frustrated I get with this show, I can never fault the casting. But as the seasons go on I don't think Shauna is going to make it out of the show alive. She's using fear to rule and that rarely works out in the end, especially if you're ruling a class of murdering cannibals. But I really wish Juliette Lewis would've stuck it out with the show because they have given Sophie some beautiful scenes that Juliette would've ran with and scored multiple touchdowns. I also think they killed off adult Lottie too soon. Especially if they stick to the 5 season storyline they said they had (though a lot of this show still feels like they're making it up as they go). But it was a strong episode in an increasingly strong season.

I think Walter may have a lot to do with Shauna brakes freezer and think callie may have unalived Lottie.

Poor Jeff. He should’ve run off right after he said What? There’s no book club?!!

I would have a burger from In-n-Out. Shauna has only cared about herself even in high school. She got together with Jackie’s boyfriend.

I do wonder if Callie wanted to ask Lottie about the letter...did she confront Lottie in New York? 😮

I am still recovering from this episode😂 My head is still spinning...

Wait til next week when it turns out that Gen is still alive and she's part of the mafia that Jeff borrowed money from, and Akila is alive and is now having a torrid affair with Simone; turns out, the other Tai nearly killed Simone by shoving dirt down her throat and now Simone wanted to frame Tai for a murder for revenge, so she killed Lottie.

BUT, Lottie isn't really dead because love is immortal; her hot girl-girl love for Shauna (wait for it) has kept her alive; it morphed her into Callie, which is why Callie is really upset about Shauna's safety near the end of this episode.

Jeff is really Javi.

They all brought pollen from the wilderness with them and it flew into the air and made all of us insane, which explains a lot, but also makes it so everything these gals do comes off like a graphically violent comedy sketch.
And you won't believe the secrets that the mute black girl from the wilderness is harboring.

I’m calling it right now…. Kodiak is not who he says he is and the girls who stayed behind are going to wind up saving those that go with him. Also in adult timeline shuana will actually convince herself it’s in her head and then we will find out it’s not… my reason is just years of watching TV shows and seeing patterns lol garuntee kid timeline tai saves van and adult timeline “ tai saves van “.

Shauna is a bad person sure, but I love watching her do her thing.

I had a feeling it was Melissa
I like Misty she’s funny and pissy
As for the moths scene sounds a bit like silence of the lambs a bit
I haven’t seen episode 8 yet the episode but try to keep from the last episode 7
Can’t wait to watch Sunday thanks!

1 point i have.. very frustrating a regular guy not even a survivalist but a regulsr guy would just bumrush Travis and take his gun in 3 seconds specifically travis not even pointing the gun at him while they r wakking in the woods
. ... the writers should AT LEAST have travis tie the guys' hands behind his back .. at least. Common .. he is not Rambo but these are teenagers and he is a survivalist

Melissa was encouraging shauna and getting her to be more and more vicious just one episode ago and now all of a sudden she thinks shauna is unhinged. This show is written by 1 year olds

Shauna must experience a reconing. She's beyond the point of being redeemed. Her behavior/ actions should not culminate in a win for Shauna or her getting to get away with it all and simply live her best life. She may kill Melissa and leave the tape and a suicide note - tying back to how Melissa was able to fake her death to begin with, with the police asking no questions.

I think it's Callie who killed Lottie. I think she's on a mission to drive Shauna over the edge!

I bate how the Yj didnt listen to Hannah. They were about to find out about the screams
