Yellowjackets: The wilderness keeps getting weirder. Season 3, Episode 2 "Dislocation" delivers a dislocated knee, a dislocated coach, and a dislocated social hierarchy in both 1996 and 2021. This episode picks up the tension from the premiere, giving us unexpected moments, new mysteries, and a kiss that absolutely no one saw coming.1996 Timeline: Mari learns the hard way that being an MVP in the past doesn't mean much when you fall into a hidden pit in the present. Coach Ben, now fully in survival mode, saves her... then immediately kidnaps her so she won’t expose that he’s alive. Shauna, still reeling from her loss, secretly exhumes and reburies her baby’s remains, staking her claim against the group’s growing cult mentality. Meanwhile, Travis trips (literally and figuratively) on Lottie’s latest dose of "therapy," claiming the wilderness might want someone else. Misty and Natalie search for Mari, but Misty suspects Nat knows more about Coach Ben’s fate than she’s letting on.And then there’s the scene that broke the internet – a heated confrontation between Shauna and Melissa takes an unexpected turn when Melissa kisses Shauna. Shauna kissed a girl, and she liked it, but not in the Katy Perry way—this is full-on 90s Jill Sobule territory. Maybe it was the stress, maybe it was the unresolved trauma, or maybe it was just the overwhelming appeal of Shauna Shipman at her most bi-ferocity. Either way, it adds another layer of intrigue to her and Jackie's relationship.2021 Timeline: Shauna gets an unexpected visitor in the form of Lottie, freshly released from The Home for the Differently Sane and looking for a place to stay. Shauna and Jeff try to shut her down, but Callie—surprisingly—argues in Lottie’s favor. Misty is called in to babysit Lottie and Callie, leading to the most bizarre slumber party in history. Callie whips up a batch of Malibu Rum Punch, dares Misty into drinking it, and before you know it, Misty is out cold. What happens next? Just a totally normal night of braiding hair, watching trashy reality TV, and forming unlikely alliances with a woman who once ran a cult.Meanwhile, Shauna and Jeff’s business dinner goes south fast when Shauna calls out the investors for their nepotism and walks out. Before that, though, Shauna encounters something even stranger: an abandoned cell phone ringing in a restaurant bathroom. By the end of the episode, Shauna makes a call and gets an answer she did not expect. Given the way the episode cross-cuts, all signs point to Melissa being alive and reaching out.Elsewhere, Taissa and Van’s reunion takes a turn when a harmless dine-and-dash leads to a man having a heart attack, making Tai question if the darkness really did follow them home and what she can get out of it. And Misty, after getting drugged by a teenager, pushes Walter away, reinforcing that her loyalty remains with the Yellowjackets—even if they continue to treat her like an afterthought. Misty really hates when someone tries to "Misty" her.What’s next?
