Yellowjackets weaves between 1996 (the crash and survival) and the present day (the aftermath). Understanding how these timelines connect is key to grasping the show's mysteries.

The Dual Timeline

  • Spring: State championship, plane crash
  • Summer: Initial survival, hope for rescue
  • Fall: Food scarcity, first death (Laura Lee)
  • Winter: Jackie's death, first cannibalism
  • Spring-Summer: Ritualization of the Hunt
  • Second Winter: The events we haven't seen yet
  • The survivors have kept their secret for 25 years
  • Someone knows what really happened
  • The past refuses to stay buried
