‘Yellowjackets’ Season 4 Could Finally Answer Its Most Disturbing Question

The article argues that *Yellowjackets’* fourth and final season should explain how the survivors accounted for their missing teammates and deaths after returning from the wilderness. Rescue would not end their ordeal: authorities and families would want to know what happened, and a shared agreement to stay silent would not explain the version they gave.

The Season 3 finale sets rescue in motion when Natalie uses a repaired satellite phone to contact someone outside the wilderness. By then, Mari has become the latest victim of the group’s ritualised violence, and Shauna has established herself as the Antler Queen. Misty had earlier destroyed the plane’s black box transponder, while Natalie learns her secret but chooses to help repair the phone with Misty and Van; the article says Season 4 should show what the survivors told investigators and whether their account was questioned.
