Yellowjackets Recap: Let It Snow
Briefly

Lorelai Gilmore's joy at snow contrasts starkly with the foreboding atmosphere in Yellowjackets, where snow represents death. The episode highlights the dire consequences of Shauna's actions on her friends as they confront another harsh winter. Her unyielding and violent behavior has pushed the group to the brink, laying bare their vulnerabilities. The episode builds tension among the characters, especially with Tai and Lottie, who remain unperturbed by Shauna's chaos. Tai's intent to deal with unresolved issues hints at further impending violence and moral dilemmas among the survivors.
The wilderness, snow basically equals death. The first time the Yellowjackets saw snow after the crash was the night Jackie froze in her sleep outside of the cabin.
Shauna's destructive impulses have affected all of the people in her orbit, bringing the rest of the surviving Yellowjackets to Melissa's doorstep.
The only people who aren't distraught about Shauna's decision to keep them all hostage are Tai and Lottie.
In a brief aside with Van, Tai explains her decision to stay, saying she doesn't want to stay forever, just until 'loose ends' are dealt with.
