The Ending of 'Yellowjackets' Season 1, Explained
While some storylines were deftly wrapped up—Taissa is a state senator now! Jackie died of natural causes!—the finale ultimately provided more questions than answers, neatly setting up the show's much-anticipated next season.with the season 1 finale, and we certainly got that when it came to Jackie's fate.
The finale teased us into believing that the girls drugged Jackie and killed her, but that turned out to be a dream of Shauna's. When Shauna wakes up, however—hours after the bitter fight with Jackie in the cabin that saw Jackie storming out and trying, slightly pathetically, to build a fire to keep herself warm—she finds Jackie's body, curled up in a blanket, under a layer of snow.
The first snow of the season, in addition to killing Jackie, serves as a not-so-subtle metaphor. All of the more horrifying flashbacks that we've seen—the Antler Queen and her minions; the spiked pit; the body hung up, presumably to eat—take place in the snow, signaling that it's during the winter that shitgoes down.
The simple answer is that Lottie killed Travis, but why? It's been 25 years, for God's sake; what possible motive would she have to track down Travis, who has been off the grid for years, kill him, and steal his money? We saw from Lottie's background that she grew up with plenty of money, and Travis presumably wasn't well-off at the time of his death.This was only briefly touched on in the finale, but given all the fan theories about Javi, it's worth talking about.
