9 Most Shocking Moments From the ‘Yellowjackets’ Season 2 Finale

Note: This story contains spoilers from the “Yellowjackets” Season 2 finale.

We knew Season 2 of “Yellowjackets” was building up to something big, but the finale of the addictive Showtime drama left us speechless.

Besides another cannibal feast, “Storytelling” featured Teen Van (Liv Hewson) spinning a fairy tale about the wilderness, Walter (Elijah Wood) crafting a narrative to get Misty (Christina Ricci) and Shauna (Melanie Lynskey) off the hook with the police — and a whole lot of heartache.

Here, in chronological order, are the most shocking things that happened in the final episode of Season 2:

Shauna carves up Javi’s body

We already knew that the wilderness had “chosen” Javi (Luciano Leroux) instead of Natalie (Sophie Thatcher) in the previous episode, but we still experienced the trauma of watching Shauna (Sophie Nélisse) carve up his dead body for the rest to feed on. While everyone shared in the grief, and the gruesome meal, it was Shauna alone who butchered her friend.

Travis takes the first bite of Javi’s heart

Travis (Kevin Alves) was heartbroken to see that instead of Natalie, whom he helped escape from her murderous fellow survivors, the wilderness had claimed Javi. After being left alone to grieve with the body, he passively went along with the cannibalization of his little brother. He was offered the first bite of Javi’s (raw!) heart and he took a bite, signaling to the others that they had his approval to proceed.
