Yellowjackets Season 2 Episode 5: Release Date, Preview & Spoilers

The most recent episode of Yellowjackets was released and it concludes in the way that saw old friends reunite. Yellowjackets Season 2 Episode 5 trailer titled “Two Truths and A Lie”, has been released and it looks as though it’s going to touch on the development of Tai and Vanessa in the present day, Lottie’s descends into Darkness in the present day and what looked like a dangerous time for Tai and Shawna during a storm as they appeared to get lost.

There was then a shot of Vanessa and Tai in the past around the tub. I think this scene is going to be used as a way to support the idea that the both of them were getting extremely close at one point and how things have gone from them almost being in a relationship to strangers in the present day.

After this, we then had most of the group standing outside as the storm was happening and it looks like a dangerous one. We had Lottie looking as though she was about to have a vision too. This was followed by a candle blowing out, which I imagine is from the scene in the present day where Lottie was almost asking Natalie to look inside her mind.

So with that, I thought I’d breakdown and explain the Preview and also give my theories and predictions on what I think could happen next,

What Will Happen In Yellowjackets Season 2 Episode 4?

Yellowjackets Season 2 Episode 5 trailer started off with Lottie looking as though she was speaking to all of the group outside as they were sitting in a circle looking as though they were going to be taking part in some kind of ritual. However, Shauna appeared to be absent from the circle and was hiding away and watching from a distance.

Lottie uttered the words “New life is coming and we can’t wait to meet him”, this is obviously referring to the baby that Shauna is about to have. But I feel Shauna may start to become fearful of Lottie and the importance that it looks as though she’s putting on the child that is soon to be arriving.

So I feel for the safety of her child, we could see Shawna start to distance herself from Lottie over the coming episodes. This, paired with the blanket that he made for the baby, which had the symbol which caused Shauna to have a Nosebleed, paired up with the birds all flying into the house, it’s most probably enough to make her question how close she wants to be as there could be some sinister intentions.

There is still a loss of questions about who her child is if it survived, or if it’s in the town in the present day. But no answers or clues have been dropped yet, so we’re just going to have to keep waiting. I’d like to think that her son is still out there, as I’d love to see him appear towards the end of the season in the present day. Or even be a main focus in the next season.

Callie And Shauna

The next shot that we had in the trailer was from the present day we had Callie speaking with her mother and father and she said the line “Remember when you asked if I told anyone? Promise you won’t freak out?”

This is referring to the conversations and meetings that Callie has been having with Jay, who she believes is genuinely interested in her. But in actual fact, he’s only focusing on her because he wants to find out information on what happened to Adam and if her mother was involved in it.

So with Callie most likely confiding in him prior to her knowing what her mother actually did to Adam, I feel we’re going to see Shauna enter a state of panic due to the information that Kelly has shared. This is what I think could lead Shauna to be questioned more by Kevin and, who knows, maybe even arrest.

Walter And Misty

After this, in the Yellowjackets Season 2 Episode 5 Trailer we had Walter and Misty at the compound Nat said lines “Who is this?” As she was behind a gate? So it does look as though the understanding that an individual is able to leave the compound at any point could still be a myth.

As Natalie looked very much trapped, we found out in the most recent episode that there were no rules at the compound and that an individual can leave whenever they want to. But I feel all the friendly facade and welcoming nature is soon going to drop, especially with Misty and Walter, 2 outsiders trying to get in arriving, and trying to take nap back.

Walter responded to Nat and said, “I’ve heard nothing but wonderful things about you”. It’s going to be interesting to see Misty speaking with Lottie for the first time in a long while. And seeing that she’s actually running an entire compound and leading a cult. So I’m interested to see what’s going to happen there. I imagine Walter and Nat are most probably going to Clash initially, but I don’t think there will be any malice behind it.

Venessa And Tai

The next shot that we had was of Vanessa saying to Tai “What are you doing Here?” As looked as though they were no longer in her store, but instead could be around at her house. I feel Tai is going to confide in Vanessa about everything that’s been going on with her mental state and alternative Tai that’s been coming to the forefront.

Vanessa was of great importance and it helped Tai in the past. So I feel this is why she’s found her way back to her to see if Vanessa can help. It looks as though whilst Tai is with Vanessa, we’re going to see her alternative side come out and it seemed as though she was holding Vanessa in a threatening position.

This could be the first time that we’re actually going to see Tai’s alternative self-being present and engaging with somebody rather than just as a reflection or a flashback. So it will be interesting to see how Vanessa will handle it.

Switching Between The Past And The Present

Then in the Yellowjackets Season 2 Episode 5 Trailer we cut to the present day where we have Lottie in a room with Nat where there was several candles lit and she was shining a torch in Natalie’s face. Lottie said “Allow yourself to go back. What do you see?”

This was then intertwined with a quick succession of shots. We had what looked like an individual standing there and it then quickly cut and transitioned. So what I could only imagine would be the Antler Queen as they turned into a person with antlers on their head.

This was followed by Natalie in the past looking on as if she’d witnessed something and couldn’t shake it off her mind. It looked as though Vanessa was in the background of the shot eating, but Natalie was choosing not to.

After this, the next shot in the Yellowjackets Season 2 Episode 5 Preview was of Misty looking off of a Cliff edge. I imagine in this instance Misty could be looking for Tai and Shauna. It appears as though he’s going to go missing during a storm that will be taking place. So this could be once the storm had passed and she’d started searching.
