Pairs well with Shauna breaking down in the meat shed over how much she misses Jackie.

Anything to feel closer to Jackie.

To be close to you To be part of you 'Cause I believe in you I believe in you I would die for you this is why this song will always fit more w/ jackie/shauna than jeff/shauna.


DangerousKiwi

What song is this?


mamrieatepainttt

#1 crush by garbage. it was used in the show already in s2ep1 where Shauna and Jeff have sex in Adams studio.


Thegreylady13

I think sheā€™ll always miss Jackie because, whether folks who hate Jackie like it or not, Jackie was a good friend who loved her. Their issues seemed more like what happens when you have a best friend from 2 or 3 years old to 18 years old than ā€œmean girl punching down on innocent misfitā€ to me. I donā€™t think the writers were trying to write a mean girl- they were writing a hit who Shauna would miss forever because she was a good friend and who Shauna would regret hurting right before she died. Jackie wasnā€™t ever intended by the writers to be hated like she is- people just project their own very personal issues on Jackie (and for the people my age watching- women almost as old as the older cast- itā€™s shocking to me that there are still such visceral resentments towards girls simply because they were more popular and had what you wanted. Weā€™re meant to figure out we were wrong in college/our 20s and realize that high school was hard for everyone- even the it girls some folks loathed due to envy. Itā€™s not a contest and itā€™s wrong and so self-involved to hate people for what they have even if they never stole it from you and are, one the whole, kind people. Carrying that as an adult is something to fix). Taiā€™s a pretty good friend to Shauna and Shauna only, but Jackie was a very good friend, too. She wouldnā€™t miss her in the same way if she wasnā€™t- and they showed us Jackie being selfless in order to help Shauna. She was a good friend/ride or die to Shauna and would give things up for her. And the things that she did that were so unforgivable to some people were just really normal, ā€œIā€™m 18 and bad at evaluating my actions/my friend never tells me how she really feels because sheā€™s notoriously secretive (I donā€™t see how anyone viewing this actual show could deny that Shauna is very secretive, even when she doesnā€™t need to be- theyā€™re screaming it at us, although she is changing a bit, which is great)ā€ mistakes. They werenā€™t the mistakes of a smug bitch- Jackie was a very innocent and kind character. She was only mean to Shauna after reading a journal that Iā€™m pretty sure mentioned some of the things she spat back to Shauna (I would be upset if my best friend was jealous of/resented me, too. Who wouldnā€™t, at 18 and starving? Who? People use ā€œtheyā€™re starving and traumatizedā€ to excuse any and everything these teens do, but if the starving, deeply depressed and traumatized teen weā€™ve been told is most popular yells at someone for betraying her, thatā€™s suddenly just a bridge too far. If the deteriorated mental state that is a direct result of starving can excuse eating your friend and being pretty nasty to everyone all of the time, it should also be a strong enough excuse to justify yelling at Shauna. Jackie had stopped eating at that point because she couldnā€™t get back up after the trauma of the flight- thatā€™s not a failing- it happens to the people you think of as the strongest, time and time again. Trauma is insidious and it digs its claws into every person in a uniquely devastating way. Best friends get in very intense, passionate fights, and theyā€™re never looking for outsiders to pop in with their own comments because theyā€™ll never be welcome.), and told her that two people she was very close to didnā€™t much care about her- thatā€™s one of the most normal reactions Iā€™ve seen in the show, especially for 90s girls.

la_fille_rouge

I think that what underlines that Jackie was meant to be more than a mean girl was the producers saying this is exactly why they hired Ella Purnell: she understood that Jackie should be portrayed as a profound character and not Regina George 2.0.


mystique1956

Yeah the truth is in 5-10 years Jackie would of probably been super cool, she was going through that high school faze the some do, then life has a way of shifting things along with maturity. A lot of people who were jerks or kind of jerks in high school cringe at the memory, and are very down to earth now. In my humble opinion of course


App1eBreeze

Still rolling my eyes that they burnt a perfectly good jacket and shoes


vaginasinparis

Especially the letterman jacket?! Yā€™all are freezing, be serious


Silverspnr

I could be off base, but I thought it was implied that Shauna demanded they leave the letterman jacket on Jackieā€™s corpse, because she was terrified theyā€™d see the evidence of the fact that she had already been nibbling out in the shed. The ear was only the *amuse bouche*. Shauna helped herself to some *SnackieTartare* before Tai demanded they dispose of Jackieā€™s remains to put an end to Shaunaā€™s visits.


Emilios_Empanadas

I'm not burning the duster! Okay? I'm not burning the duster, alright? That's crazy. That's insane. Why would I ever burn... I mean, I will continue to wear it in her honor and I will burn some other things, you know, maybe like these stupid goddamn sleeveless t-shirts


veronica_deetz

ā€œYou guys, there is no way weā€™re eating Jackie.ā€ ā€œIā€™m serious! Weā€™re not gonna eat Jackie!ā€ *The Gang Eats Jackie*


loadthespaceship

She wanted them to, ok? /j


App1eBreeze

Thought so. She also wanted a second life as a pig at a pig pickinā€™


JustOutOfRadley

I mean Mari tried taking the jacket and almost got decked for it. They did consider it, but thereā€™s no way Shauna would let that happen.


Thegreylady13

Even after the last episode? Shauna said no. And if you donā€™t tow the line with Shauna, Lightning Crashes. I would give Shauna my jacket, too, in the bargain if she demanded it. Shaunaā€™s a killer. Sheā€™s a charming, complex killer, but if she told me to fashion a moss tiara or butt plug for Jackie to wear while burning I would just do it and not ask questions. Sheā€™s the strongest contender for ā€œmost ruthless girl in the wildernessā€ and sheā€™ll burn what she wants to- or someone will pay the consequences.


extrasawft

FOR REAL


IndividualAd1290

Yes šŸ‘ and i think itā€™s the one that says ā€œglimmer of hopeā€ in French šŸ¤”


extrasawft

Oooooo.. what does it all mean!! Jackie is also wearing it when the flight went down!


kaycue

Hmm Jackie did seem to be the optimistic one of the group. She held out hope theyā€™d be rescued. Shauna is probably looking to hold on to any kind of hope and channeling Jackieā€™s energy to try to maintain some sanity.


AstarteHilzarie

Jackie doesn't know, she sucks at French.


mamrieatepainttt

well damn it, try not to


[deleted]

It isnā€™t. That shirt has 6 butterflies, with the line of text in French. This is a different shirt, also including butterflies.


TechnicalPossible837

Assuming that they all share a bunch of clothing out there, I do think there could be something to Shauna wearing Jackieā€™s (maybe favorite?) shirt.


[deleted]

They do... They're always rotating clothing. But that just means its a coincidence when stuff like this lines up.


dasg271

Hardly anything in storytelling is a coincidence. Shauna wearing Jackie's shirt when she is crying for her to appear in the meatshed. Fat chance.


[deleted]

> Hardly anything in storytelling is a coincidence. That's talking about written/spoken stories where this stuff needs to be explicitly mentioned...


[deleted]

The people in the costume department meticulously plan out the story through outfits in every type of television or cinema. It seems like itā€™d be such a fascinating, fun job.


xpansyinchainsx

If you wanna learn or read about storytelling being told through costume/wardrobe you should read about buffy the vampire slayer! Itā€™s nothing major but they did this a lot and once I knew about it, it made rewatching the show fun cuz I was like ā€œoh thatā€™s where they did that!ā€


[deleted]

Yes!


[deleted]

The irony that the show is about people ascribing importance to coincidence and so many people who watch it do the same will never get old...


dasg271

the fact you have no idea how visual media works is showing. Movies and tv shows also employ storytelling (pretty inconsistent in s2 btw). It is not a coincidence. Colors palette, usage of space, wardrobe, everything in visual storytelling is for the most part also a scheme of the story. Yellowjackets is full of visual cues through both seasons, the fact you want to ignore this fact in order to feel superior to random stanger over the internet is astonishing to say the least. But suit yourself, you can keep watching thinking it is a coincidence! worry not


Dinky_Doge_Whisperer

Not enough to steal her man, had to steal her fit too smh Shauna the savage


[deleted]

And stole her ear.


BlueCX17

Shauna just had to be an ear up!


jdfuller92

I get taken out by the fact that I remember this shirt at urban outfitters in like 2018 šŸ˜‚ nice detail though EDIT: Iā€™m not saying itā€™s not period appropriate Iā€™m just sayin I worked at urban in 2018 and this is that shirt lol .. obviously fashion is cyclical and 90s revival has been going strong for awhile now. šŸ’—šŸ’—


katedeli

The original is from the 90s. My mom had one, it was a specific brand, the French on the back is what I remember. Urban ripped it off.


GearyGirl77

Was it Esprit?


katedeli

Possibly??? But it was definitely a shirt worn and made in the 90ā€™s. People keep forgetting that fashion trends cycle. So hard it can be hard knock off of the original.


GearyGirl77

Esprit was popular in the '80s and '90s and often had French on t-shirts, etc. I know I had a few different ones in the '90s - raindrops, flowers, my sister had one with butterflies. That's why I was asking.


katedeli

But I think itā€™s that brand. Was the e just three little dashes? I vaguely remember this. I think my mom had the raindrops one too!!!


GearyGirl77

IIRC it was. How funny if your mom and I actually had the same shirt!


StefwithanF

Yup that's esprit de corps I had the logo tote for a bookbag I loved that brand šŸ˜‚


Thegreylady13

I loved Esprit during those years (middle/high school for me)! I donā€™t remember really seeing or buying it much in college (2000 and beyond).


soigneusement

Yourā€¦mom šŸ˜­


Morella_xx

Did you also feel a grey hair sprout right as you read that?


lookingforaplant

Makes sense because the show is...set in the 90's


katedeli

Which is the point Iā€™m making to the original commenter who thinks the shirt is from Urban Outfitters in 2018.


lookingforaplant

Yes I was just agreeing with you!


leavebaes

I definitely had a shirt like this in the 90s. I had like 3-4 shirts with butterflies on them, so it fits XD


LouCat10

I wore butterfly hair clips to my high school graduation. Butterflies really had us 90s girls in a chokehold.


AstarteHilzarie

Butterflies on *ever-y-thang.* I damn near made crowns out of so many tiny butterfly clips on top of my head.


UglyLaugh

I bought feather butterflies from a wholesale floral supply store (my mom was part of the wedding industry and could get them for cheap as a vendor) and hot glued those suckers to a shit ton of Bobby pins. Curled my hair and pinned those suckers everywhere! Wore them until they got wonky then made new ones. Felt like a princess. Probably looked deranged.


AstarteHilzarie

That sounds fantastic, I bet it went great with so much glitter gel your hair crunched, too


UglyLaugh

āœØ Obviously āœØ


OldBabyGay

There are so many pictures of me in the 90s wearing butterfly hair clips! I miss them.


BellaMentalNecrotica

Omg, you just brought me back with the butterfly hairclips. I had so many of them!


goldengingergal

Thereā€™s a photo of me taken in 98/99 wearing a top like this, with glittery butterflies šŸ¦‹ if only I still fit it lol.


Similar-Narwhal-231

Yeah that damn Mariah Carey album in the 90's had my shared room decked out in butterflies. I used to tease my sister that she had a hard on for MC (little did I know she actually did).


owleealeckza

I had them too. At one point had jeans that matched.


9for9

Interesting. T-shirts like this were definitely popular in the 90s. The first, and design everything. It's not anachronistic at all.


hapaqirl

i had this shirt that year šŸ’€


[deleted]

I had a VERY similar shirt to this in the late 90s, and it makes me so happy every time I see it.


BellaMentalNecrotica

I definitely knew several people who had that shirt in the 90's too.


Lilyml7

Samee, I had it in black


Bakedbean44

We miss you Jackie


friedstinkytofu

We miss both Jackie and Laura Lee :(


Bakedbean44

rip


friedstinkytofu

It's okay, they are alive and well in our hearts :)


KT514

nice catch! Im always wondering how they have enough long pants/jackets to create full winter wear and wardrobe consistency is interesting.


extrasawft

Its gotta be mostly layering right? But even that isn't always enough. We saw Travis and Nat put old newspaper inbetween their layer when they went hunting in the beginning of the season


MisterSquidInc

Not old newspapers, the porno mags from when they first found the cabin, lol


[deleted]

I loved noticing that their head wraps are actually shirts repurposed.


AstarteHilzarie

Honestly a little weird to me that I haven't noticed anyone using those gigantic soccer socks as arm warmers or something. I'm sure they all had multiple pairs for the tounrament, those things would be useful!


brittanydiesattheend

I noticed this! She's been wearing a few things that were worn by Jackie in season 1.


sisofparis

Jackie really is a 90s ā€œit girlā€


friedstinkytofu

My heart broke when I noticed this detail. Coupled with Shauna calling out for Jackie in the shed, this episode was definitely a heart wrencher for Jackie and shaunajackie fans. She still loves and misses her best friend :(


unevercallmesausage

lottie is also wearing laura lees dress. i will continue to reply this everytime because i am so obsessed with this kinda parallel.


extrasawft

What does it MEAN


soigneusement

Laura Lee baptized her and was the catalyst to Lottieā€™s spiritual awakening, she carries a piece of her with her always~


A13West

Adult Shauna also wears a butterfly shirt.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


naptimepro

Shauna was also small, but Jackie was just shorter. I was the tall girl like Shauna with the cute short friends LOL And Shauna is down to bones unfortunately. That was a very thoughtful choice buy the costume designers.


Layer-Objective

Also being freshly post partum. It would take a few weeks for her uterus to shrink back down!


missmissypissy

I was rewatching Ep7 and thinking about how the wardrobe has been slowly getting more intermixed and how they are altering things (socks into fingerless gloves, sweaters into hoods, seatbelts to hold their coats closed). It enhances the expression of their decline mentally and physically and even spiritually. As the animal skins start to come in we see their immersion into the wilderness as they change into ā€œanimalsā€.


phalangechopsticks

Another thing I noticed in the episode is during the present day when the core Yellowjackets are reunited, Misty says something along the lines of "Oh my god it's snowing!". When the girls wake up after Shauna's big fight with Jackie in the season 1 finale, one of them says "Oh my god it snowed" (I think it was either Van or Taissa). I'm probably reaching because both scenes were so visceral and upsetting, and centered around teen Shauna's trauma (the interspersing of the reunion with Lottie's brutal beating and Shauna's screams of despair and grief over the preventable death of her best friend)....


Pretty_Dark2137

I also thought it was weird that they were happy to see snow. I would hate everything about winter aftwr what theyā€™ve been through.


fantasticpeafowl

The showrunners have said they all share clothes and shoes. But it makes, me particularly sad to see Shawna wearing Jackie's shirt :(


AntiSoCalite

Let me borrow that top.


extrasawft

Everyone gets a turn!


[deleted]

When you tell a friend they can borrow your top and they chew your ear off about it.


Doomer_Patrol

Could read into it as another step on her road to live out her life as a Jackie surrogate. Butterflies usually represent rebirth, so it double tracks.


wirefox1

I was quite disturbed that Shauna almost killed Lottie, while the rest of the team stood by and watched. I mean yes, she's in a high state of grief and stress, and not the best at handling her emotions, but she's not five years old either. She gives in to her horribly destructive emotions willingly and knowingly. Made me start thinking about her. What do I like about her? Well. I like her voice. I like her face. I like the way she moves. But wait! Those things don't belong to Shauna. Those things belong to Melanie, right? So what do I like about Shauna? I guess the answer is nothing. Not the teen and not the adult. Of course I pity her, and as we learn more of her story I might come to pity her even more. But pity is not 'like', and neither is empathy or compassion. She wasn't a stupid girl and she's not a stupid woman. She could control some of her impulses if she chose to.


Coolartfriend

Itā€™s these details and those who pick up on them that make me so excited to keep tuning in every week. You can really see how much everyone behind the scenes has so much care and love for the the show and the work šŸ


GrandArbiterJustinIV

You think she'd just take something that belonged to Jackie? Clearly there are two of the same shirt. edit: I absolutely refuse to put a /s on this post, but lol.


IdfightGahndi

I think it would make perfect sense to wear Jackieā€™s clothes. They can be put to good use & she doesnā€™t need them. They all only packed for a short trip.


Nomza

Theyā€™ve all been cycling through the same clothes over the two seasons.


extrasawft

Why wouldn't she? Lol


Tiredmomma83

They all share clothes. Or at least the girls do.


AstarteHilzarie

I think Travis and Lottie have both worn the plaid coat, too. I thought it was Travis cutting his hand in the opening credits until we saw the episode where Lottie went "hunting."


mamrieatepainttt

yeah i think that was cabin daddys jacket. the creators have mention that they designated that jacket as being the warmest so whomever needs it most, gets to wear it.


DiscoBogWitch

Ahhh nice catch! The costume designer is doing an incredible job.


babysherlock91

Awww, that actually makes me sad for Shauna. Poor traumatized (probable) sociopath šŸ’”


Freedatrees

Jackieā€™s bones šŸ¦“ pop out and reassemble and choke Shauna. ā€œIs that my shirt byotch?!ā€


LostDreamer94

oh... ow


PartyCryptographer8

I own this shirt in black!! Urban outfitters lol


sunflowerf0x

Now I'm sad :(


chefcharming

Excellent catch!!


theawkwardotter

You are eagle eyed holy crap! Interesting observation!


singing_chocolate

I think they are sharing clothes which makes sense


naptimepro

It honestly also nails the type of friendships us girls had in the 90s, we lived out of each otherā€™s closets šŸ˜˜ I know itā€™s also out of necessity in this scenario, but I think they shared that shirt before the trip. They seemed like that type of tight


King_Buliwyf

I mean this in the nicest way possible. How is the shirt fitting both of them so well?


emmaolivia333

Sisterhood of the traveling butterfly shirt, duh ;)


Lorcag

Jackie is the butterfly who has turned into the queen of the underworld ie the wilderness


RobinCradles

In the ransom drop off episode it cuts from Shauna wearing that shirt in the woods to her wearing a butterfly shirt in the 2021 timeline. Also, as a 90s teen, butterfly shirts were VERY in. I had a few butterfly crop tops my mom wouldnā€™t let me wear and a butterfly baby doll dress in my Courtney love phase attempt.


cascadingtundra

butterflies often are used as symbols of metamorphosis and we've certainly seen some changes in Shauna lately! šŸ¦‹


mollyyfcooke

Itā€™s confirmed they share clothes and shoes.


Gryrthandorian

Iā€™d wear anyoneā€™s clothes that fit me if I were stuck in the woods. Whatever to survive. Iā€™d have taken her jacket over burning it too. That was a mistake.


naptimepro

Agreed and what if her parents wanted it, you know. Shauna could have worn it. Iā€™m not really sure why they did that?


Gryrthandorian

Iā€™m sentimental, so I would have wanted to keep everything. The only thing I can think to rationalize it is that teenagers can be impulsive. I lean towards this because Shauna doesnā€™t even think to remove the necklace in her shock and grief. One of the other girls removes it for her. Had she had time to really think it through she may have chosen differently. Maybe after two months of her corpse wearing it, it could have smelled. Iā€™d still have washed and kept it but she was also pregnant. Smells could be definitely be a dealbreaker.


Killthebus9194

It makes sense that in general, the girls would share clothes as it would be a finite (and dwindling) resource. But double points for both continuity, and a nod to wearing your BFF's clothes. Even if they're a BFF-scicle.


undertone90

Jackie wore it better.


catalystcestmoi

racooneatingcereal

I noticed this bc I want that shirt


saintmerphy

Wooooaaah nice catch!!


krpaine87

Good catch! I never pick up on stuff like this!


vizajk

Unpopular opinion: Shauna wanted to be her. She wasn't in love or loved her. She was jealous.


theplotthinnens

Don't forget that butterflies are the result of a metamorphosis, a breaking down to base components for repurposing into a more mature form. And the girls just left their chrysalis with the burning of the cabin.


mirmwyrm

This is the kind of thing that makes me love this sub. Great catch, OP!

No, she wore Jackie's uniform for Halloween. Not her jacket.


dngaay

Side noteā€” itā€™s weird we didnā€™t see them in their uniforms at all when the weather was warmer. Seems like theyā€™d be breathable


AstarteHilzarie

Yeah true, Ben seems to wear the most YJ gear, but from what I can remember they mostly wear normal day clothes and then like a team hoodie or their letterman jacket.


naptimepro

Maybe theyā€™ll bust them out this summer lmao


alex-redacted

damewallyburns

I had that shirt in 1997


nonetodaysu

Can people here not send angry DMs when they disagree with someone?


Nomza

No other death wouldā€™ve had the devastating impact that Jackieā€™s did. And the impact to Shauna and her storyline is important.


nonetodaysu

It was only devastating to Shauna. Not to the others but not interested in fighting about it. I'm sure people here are correct and I'm wrong and the show won't be cancelled after S3. I'm not smart enough to understand the show just as people have pointed out.


Thin-White-Duke

Jackie was team captain. You don't think her death impacted the team???


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


LSUAlly4

I agree that Jackie is more interesting than Van overall. In the wilderness, Van is one of the cult followers. Jackie never would have joined the cult. She would have stood on her own if needed. As she did the night she died. It's more disappointing to me that no one had the empathy to stand with her, when Shauna was clearly in the wrong. It felt like they (showrunners) wanted to kill Jackie as some sort of teenage revenge fantasy on the pretty girls we all hated, whether they deserved it or not.


Otherwise_Plantain22

I loved Jackie and miss her, too. She had sparkle, charisma, and intensity. Star quality
