Spoilers below for anyone who isn’t caught up on Yellowjackets, so be warned!
As things stand here in the first half of Yellowjackets’ pulse-jarring second season, few characters have fallen off the deep end quite as steadily and severely as the meat-weary somnambulist Taissa, whose ever-deepening story has only become more disturbing across both of the cable hit’s timelines. On the more firmly corporeal side of things, Tai has been coping with crumbling relationships as a significant other (with partners who have now both faced life-threatening injuries), and Tawny Cypress’ adult character is becoming increasingly unfit as a mother for the already trauma-stricken Sam. And then there’s everything supernatural, from her evil mirror self to the Man with No Eyes, with the presumption that it’s all connected somewhere.
