How the Story Ends

Previously on Yellowjackets
Oh, fuck.
- Can you get us out of here?
- I can.
We can finally go home. [LAUGHS]
[WALTER] Checkmate.
Oh, don't worry, I cloned
her phone before resetting it.
I'd be happy to share its contents.
You just have to ask me for them.
[DR. SANDLOW]
Now, the blood work suggests
your cancer has stopped metastasizing.
[TAISSA] It could be happening again.
The waiter was a sacrifice.
Your new prognosis, that's the gift.
[HANNAH] I-I wanted you
to be proud of me.
Why didn't we know about
this kid in the first place?
[TAISSA] Gen and Melissa
got pretty close to Hannah.
[VAN] Yeah, they're both dead.
- [RETCHES]
- [SCREAMING]
- Van!
- Oh, my God!
This is an emergency.
She has metastatic cancer.
- She does?
- What?
- Let's fucking do this!
- [GIRLS WHOOPING]
- I'm staying.
- This is rescue.
- No.
- The rest of us, we're going.
You're not.
[MELISSA LAUGHS] Bye, love.
- [DAUGHTER] Love you, Mama.
- I love you more.
- Bye.
- [ALEX] Bye-bye.
Whoever the fuck you are, you
better get out here right now.
Shauna? What are you doing here?
What are you doing alive?
My wife ruined our dinner,
my business didn't.
Now, my wife's a fucking crazy person.
I'm not her. Don't give up on me, guys.
I think you came here because
you want your life to explode.
[GROANING] Fuck!
[GRUNTING]
[SCREAMS]
- Eat it.
- What the fuck?

[SOMBER MUSIC]
[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER P.A.]
[VAN] Where's Taissa?
Hey.
You're awake. [SIGHS]
[GROANS]
Relax. Tai's still here.
Misty, too.
Shauna straight-up ditched you,
but that figures, doesn't it?
What is this?
Is this a dream?
Am I dead?
Death is around every corner.
All right, what do you want?
There's something I need to ask you.
Something really important.
[EXHALES HEAVILY]
Do you remember The Goonies?
Are you fucking serious?
Oh, my God, it's one of
the greatest quests of all time.
Mikey, he finds out that he's
about to lose his house,
but then him and his friends,
they find this old pirate map
and they go on an adventure to find
The treasure, yes, I know,
I have seen this fucking movie,
like, a hundred times more
than you, literally.
Why are you telling me this?
Because it is a classic hero's journey.
"X" marks the spot.
Taissa's been trying to show you.
Listen to her.
Yeah, she hasn't exactly
been herself lately.
I know.
Even more reason.
She needs this, too.
Hey, wh whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa,
what is that?
It's just a little something
for the road.
Where am I going?
[TEEN VAN] To get the treasure.
[VENTILATOR HISSING]
[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER P.A.]
Hey. How you feeling?
[GROANS] Like I've been puking up blood.
What'd I miss?
[SNIFFLES]
[EXHALES SLOWLY]
Hey. Aw.
Tai
Hey. It's gonna be okay.
- Yeah.
- Come on.
You remember that time
we were down at the shore
and there was that old guy there
and he was
absolutely housing
that box of saltwater taffy?
[TAISSA LAUGHS]
And his nurse said that was, like,
the only thing he wanted to do
before he died.
As soon as we get home,
I am gonna get you
the best fucking taffy there is.
Anything you want.
- We're not going home.
- [SNIFFLES]
Baby, we can't stay here.
I know.
But I don't like taffy.
Come on, Tai. [GRUNTS]
Goonies never say die.
Go on. Just take a bite.
[SIGHS] You're sick.
Do you know who's really gonna be sick?
Your family,
when they find out that Mommy's name
isn't actually Kelly because, oops,
once upon a time
she killed and ate people.
How can you do this?
It should be obvious by now.
Eat it.
[GRUNTING]
[INTENSE MUSIC]
[ENGINE STARTS]
Melissa!
- [TIRES SQUEALING]
- Open the fucking door!

You don't get to tell everyone
what to do, Shauna.
Yeah, well, I already did.
And they're gonna do it, so
What is even happening right now?
You're all gonna see
this is the right decision.
We've literally been in hell.
You have no fucking right
to keep us in it.
It's not me. It's what It wants.
No one is saying
we have to stay here forever.
But leaving right now
when there are so many things
left to clean up?
It's not the smart move either.
[KODI] Well, it sounds like you
guys all have a lot to discuss,
so have fun braiding
each other's hair and
partaking in some light cannibalism.
I'm fucking out of here.
[SHAUNA] That's not happening.
You sure this is the move
you want to make?
Don't do anything stupid, Shauna.
Tell him that.
You sure you even know
how to use that, little girl?
[RACKS RIFLE]
Don't worry. My boyfriend taught me.
[CHUCKLING]
[TAISSA] Shauna.
Shauna, we can put them
in the animal pen
until we decide what to do.
Fine.
Take their shoes.
Let's move.
Come on.
Hey. Hey.
Did you mean that?
About leaving eventually?
Those frog scientists lost their shit
when they saw Coach.
Imagine what'll happen when
the rest of the world gets here.
Van, what's the point
of going back
if it means ruining our lives?
I understand that the mind
forgets things to protect itself
or whatever, but
could you please
try and remember what winter was like?
We survived.
We ate a fucking kid.
- We're prepared this time.
- We're not.
That game
will run out eventually.
And you and I both know what comes next.
Good thing you've been
practicing with the cards.
Trust me, okay?
I'm going to see us through this.
We just have to be smart.
[MYSTERIOUS MUSIC]
How did the guy from the car
place get this to connect,
and I can't?
[MISTY] We're 20 minutes from
the daughter's house, about
40 minutes from Colonial Williamsburg,
if anyone feels like churning
butter after we find Shauna.
And, uh, let's face it, we're
probably gonna need an alibi.
Mm, yeah, well, we don't know
what Shauna's done yet.
Oh, right.
I'm sure it's reasonable.
All the more reason to get there ASAP.
[POPS LIPS]
But we can make a pit stop
if you need one, huh?
Nah, I'm good.
Oh, Jesus.
I can't believe someone's actually
having a worse day than I am.
Wait. Wait!
- That looks like
- Oh!
- Fuck!
- [MISTY] Stop the car!
[TIRES SCREECH]
Melissa?
- I think Misty's right.
- What?
Oh, shit.
Melissa! Melissa!
Go back!
- Go, go, go now!
- Uh
[INTENSE MUSIC]
- She's getting away.
- [TAISSA] Okay.
I got her, I got her.
[MISTY] What is she doing?
[TIRES SCREECH]
- [GASPS]
- [EXHALES]
[GRUNTING]
No, you don't.
[GRUNTING]
I got you now this time!
[GRUNTS]
[MISTY] Hey.
I don't know how you're still alive,
but you won't be much longer
if you don't cooperate.
[VAN] "X" marks the spot.
[VAN] So
how you been?
[TAISSA] Jesus Christ.
What the fuck is going on?
You're dead.
What's going on is that
Shauna's gone off the fucking deep end.
She broke into my house, attacked me
Did you send that tape?
Yes.
But there's a lot more to it.
More than you sending literal
evidence of murder?
How did you think
Shauna was gonna react?
[MELISSA] Hello?
Do you know why I'm bleeding?
She made me eat my fucking arm!
[GROANS]
Okay.
- We got to find her.
- Yeah.
Well well, then let me out because
- I am not going back.
- Nope.
Sit down.
Don't do this.
She's out of her mind.
Just shut up.
Or you really will be dead.
[SINISTER MUSIC]
[TENSE MUSIC]
[MYSTERIOUS MUSIC]
[GIRL] She's completely out of control.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
[GIRL] Shh
[INTENSE MUSIC]
[SHAUNA] They're up to something.
[TAISSA] Who?
[SHAUNA] The others.
[MELISSA] Like what?
If I knew that,
I would have handled it already.
[TAISSA] Okay, well, we have the gun.
They'd be dumb
to try anything without it.
Well, everyone knows you guys
kick me out of the meetings
because you think I'm annoying.
But, I mean, what if we use that?
Like, get some intel from it?
- Okay, Double-0-Quigley.
- [TAISSA] No, that's
that's actually a good idea.
[EXHALES]
Do it.
[EXHALES]
[THUDDING NEARBY]
[MUTTERS]
[DOOR OPENS]
- [PANTING SOFTLY]
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- [VAN] Shauna?
- Oh, God.
In here.
[SIGHS] Yeah, okay, I-I might
have made things a-a little bit worse.
Um
Oh, thank God.
But, wait.
How did you find her?
- She ran out of gas.
- [SHAUNA] Oh.
I guess you should have
listened to your wife.
Okay, what are we going to use
to tie her up with?
Hang on.
Can we just take a minute here?
Why?
She admitted that she sent the tape.
Which means she killed Lottie.
Not so fast, Martha Misdirect.
Let's not forget that Shauna's DNA
was under Lottie's fingernails.
And she was in the city
- the day Lottie died.
- Wait, what?
Oh, yeah, I [CHUCKLES]
I literally have the receipt.
Well, that doesn't look good.
Shauna, what were you doing there?
I was getting a cat.
Wow.
What a totally satisfying answer.
Uh, care to elaborate?
Yeah, I
went to the Humane Society
because I saw on their website
that they happened to have this cat
that was exactly the same
as this other cat
that Jeff was trying to find.
Uh, for his karma.
So
And you expect us to believe this
tale of two cats?
- Oh, God.
- [SHAUNA] You know what?
I don't give a shit what you believe.
You've made that abundantly clear.
She's trying to pin this on Melissa
to cover up the fact that she's
the one that killed Lottie.
Melissa sent the tape.
So she's the one who left the phone.
And cut my brakes.
And locked me in the freezer.
Oh, for the love of God,
the freezer was me.
What?
The lock's been broken for months.
I would have warned you,
but you've been such an absolute asshole
that I thought
a little time in the freezer
would do you some good.
Okay, you guys feeling better?
Because we need to focus.
We are where we are.
So you're just gonna go ahead
and take her side?
Of course she is.
It's not about sides.
I just don't think Shauna killed Lottie.
- Thank you.
- And right now
I think we need to figure out
what we're gonna do to mitigate
this situation.
No. No.
This is Shauna's mess.
You can find
some other maid to clean it up.
[MISTY SCOFFS]
But don't think for a second
I won't get to the bottom of all this.
[DOOR OPENS]
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- [SIGHS]
Can I, uh, talk to you?
- Sure.
- I was just out in the woods,
and I-I don't know, I
I felt this rush through my body.
I've never felt that before
when I wasn't tripping, but I
I think It
was trying to talk to me.
- Hmm.
- Will you come with me?
See if I'm right?
Yeah, of course.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
This is so insane.
Who the fuck do they think they are?
We just have to wait.
[GEN] Until when?
The next blizzard?
We've been waiting here for over a year.
I cannot go through
another winter out here.
If we are here, I hope
the Wilderness chooses me first.
'Cause I don't think
I can handle that again.
Home was right there.
Cheeseburgers
- We could steal the gun back.
- [NATALIE] Mm.
Shauna hasn't let it leave her sight.
But you don't think that
she'd actually use it, do you?
No way. She's too chickenshit.
Is she?
[EERIE MUSIC]
I think there's another way.

I'll be sure to check out your

[MISTY CHUCKLES]
[HELICOPTER BLADES WHIRRING]
I'm so glad you texted!
What do you think?
It's excessive!
[CHUCKLES] I know, right?
Uh, part of me was afraid
you'd think it was excessive.
It's not mine, though.
Keith Morrison owed me a favor.
Hey, let's go!
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
[MISTY SIGHS]
We have dinner covered, Misty.
Well, we'll need nourishment later.
So we're prepared. [SOFT CHUCKLE]
Prepared for what?
You know.
We don't, actually.
Oh.
I just thought you guys were
a part of, uh
the plan.
We saw you in that meeting
with Team Crazy.
Quit embarrassing yourself.
Fine.
If you guys don't want
to get out of here.
But if you change your mind
come find me.
Wait, does she know something?
No.
No.
[MUTED, DRAMATIC MUSIC]
- [TAISSA] Happy now?
- Is it tight?
- Yes.
- [TAISSA SIGHS]
So, what's next? Her family's gonna
come home at some point,
and we still have
a big fucking problem to solve.
I am not the problem.
Shauna is the problem.
You both know it as well as I do.
Not entirely inaccurate.
Come on.
- This is kind of like Adam.
- [VAN] Except there's no body
- yet.
- [TAISSA] Yeah.
- Mm.
- Who's Adam?
Why did you say that?
[MELISSA] This happened before?
And there was a body?
You just dug her grave.
You know that, right?
All we're saying is,
this feels familiar.
So, Shauna acted like a lunatic
and killed this Adam,
made you guys clean it up.
So she put you at risk and,
let me guess, she was wrong then, too?
He
Her family doesn't even know
her real name.
What kind of psychopath
brings home a dead woman's tape
and then marries her daughter?
Holy shit. You married Hannah's kid?
Yes. Okay, but
You know what? Actually
I think it's time for you
to just shut the fuck up.
- You don't understand
- N-Nope.
And you need to sit down.
So what do we do here?
I mean, there's not exactly
a ton of options.
[TAISSA] Are you okay?
[VAN] Yeah.
- I'll be right back.
- Where are you going?
[VAN] Just going to the car.
[TAISSA] Shauna.
[SHAUNA] Let me think.
[TAISSA] Oh, God, yeah,
maybe you should have done that
before you turned her arm into sashimi.
[CLICKS]
[MELISSA] How about "B"?
Damn.
[GROANS]
Sorry.
This game sucks.
Want me to turn on the TV?
Stop.
I would literally get shot again
just to watch The Real World.
Wait, where is it this season?
No clue.
[GROANS]
Only because it's mostly Nickelodeon on
at home these days.
I have a daughter.
She's ten.
Oh, shit.
Really?
I'm sorry, I I just really miss her.
Uh, don't be sorry, I
I get it.
[HANNAH] I know you do.
I know you all do.
You've been missing
your families for over a year.
Yeah.
But
this is fucked.
They can't keep us
as prisoners forever, right?
I stopped trying to predict
what's going to happen
out here a long time ago.
All I know is, people are willing to do
some messed-up stuff
just to see another day.
Honestly?
From a purely scientific perspective,
this is the most fascinating
study of survival
I've ever witnessed.
Even more so than horny frogs.
[LAUGHS]
Probably because teenage girls
are even hornier.
[BOTH LAUGH]
[SHAUNA] Am I interrupting something?
[MELISSA] Shauna, wait.
[TENSE MUSIC]
What's your deal?
What were you two giggling about?
Nothing. [SCOFFS]
Stupid stuff. Why?
Don't you know how dumb it is
to get close to her?
She's just using you to try to escape.
And what?
[SCOFFS] You think she makes a joke
and I'm like, "You're
hilarious, here's your freedom"?
What'd she say to you?
Nothing just [SIGHS]
She has a kid back home.
[SCOFFS]
And you believe that?
Why wouldn't I?
She just wants you to feel bad for her.
She's manipulating you.
I don't think that she is.
And, yeah, I do feel kind of bad.
She must really miss her.
[SCOFFS] Well, I'm glad you have
so much sympathy for her.
This isn't a competition, Shauna.
I know. I just
well, I didn't think
you were this fucking stupid.
[MELISSA SIGHS]
Hey, Melissa!
- I'm not done talking to you!
- See how much I care?
You think you're important?
No one gave a shit about you until me!
Why can't you just be a nice person?
You're nothing.
Jesus.
[MELISSA] You guys were right.
[SCOFFS] She's fucking nuts.
Wh-Wh-Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Say that again?
Come on, Shauna.
Put the gun down.
I fucking dare you.

Nothing.
Tell me, I can help.
Help me? No.
Lottie, you can't.
It's bullshit.
You're bullshit.
We have a chance at rescue.
Do you not get that?
We can go home, and you're ruining it.
You're ruining everything for all of us.
I can't, I can't let you do this.
I can't. I can't.
- I'm sorry, Travis.
- I won't.
I'm sorry.

I can't believe I'm about to say this,
