Yellowjackets Season 2 production is set to begin in August, and showrunners Ashley Lyle, Bart Nickerson, and Jonathan Lisco have teased the resolution of different plot lines.

One of these narrative lines is a discrepancy in a diary entry that refers to movies that were released after Jackie's tragic death at the end of Yellowjackets Season 1. There are several theories about the Yellowjackets' diary discrepancies, but Jonathon Lisco may have refuted the most plausible one.

Jackie’s Diary to be Explored Further in Yellowjackets Season 2

Lisco discussed Jackie's diary in an interview with Variety.

"I don't want to say we will find out that Shauna wrote those entries necessarily, but, we will find out why they exist,” he said.

The first time viewers saw Jackie's diary was in Yellowjackets Season 1 Episode 6, which took place during the adult Shauna and her husband Jeff's yearly visit to Jackie's parents.

Shauna finds herself in Jackie's teenage bedroom, which has remained unaltered since the day of the crash, taking a break from the stiflingly awkward social engagements. She remembers their friendship as she picks up Jackie's diary.

According to the scene, Shauna may have filled out the pages in an effort to deal with her grief at Jackie's sudden loss in the years following the incident.

Although Jonathon Lisco's thoughtful response leaves some room for interpretation, his shift in emphasis from who to why suggests a deeper supernatural component that Yellowjacket Season 2 may explore.

Shauna’s Guilt

The end of Yellowjackets Season 1's 1996 storyline is heartbreaking for Shauna and Jackie's friendship. When Jackie discovers that Jeff, her former boyfriend, is cheating on her with Shauna, she seeks to expel her former buddy from the group but is greeted with strong opposition from the others.

She dies in the night after deciding to sleep outside, eliminating the possibility of the two friends ever reconciling. This will most certainly weigh heavily on Shauna's thoughts throughout Yellowjackets Season 2.

It wouldn't be shocking if she dreamed up a version of Jackie as a coping technique and an attempt at reconciliation in the heightened environment of the survivors' isolation.
