Yellowjackets
Warning : SPOILERS forwards for Yellowjackets time of year 3 , episode 6 , " Thanksgiving ( Canada ) . "
Yellowjackets ' grownup timeline is getting unusual in season 3 , and Tai wake up screaming for avail is among the many mysteries introduced in recent episodes . Ben ’s imprisonment and death in the teen storyline takes halfway point inYellowjacketsseason 3 , episode 6 . However , the grownup survivors ' narration is also getting tense , as Shauna and the others realize they ’re being blackmailed over what they did in the Wilderness . While Tai seems the most roll up afterLottie ’s shockingYellowjacketsfateand the blackmail tape , cracks are starting to show .
This is especially true in " Thanksgiving ( Canada ) , " which sport two boastful hints that things are n’t quite right with grownup Tai . First , Van stupefy a mysterious phone call , during which Tai asks for her aid . When she shows up in the same room second later , everything seems fine — but she asks Van for assistance again afterward . Towards theend ofYellowjacketsseason 3 , sequence 6,Tai Wake Island up yell while she ’s in layer with Van . She yells for help before her expression shifts , then goes back to eternal rest .

I Think “Other” Tai Has Been Taking Over Tai’s Body & Trapping Her Throughout Season 3
It Would Explain Her Strange Behavior & Sammy’s Reaction To Her
Adult Taissa has been acting funnily for most ofYellowjacketsseason 3 , andher recent call for help have led me to one conclusion : she ’s being controlled by Other Tai . We ’ve mostly seen Tai ’s darker persona in the serial ' past timeline , but several incident in season 1 prove she ’s still around years by and by . And I think she ’s present more than anyone realizes , though it seems like Van is take off to catch on . Other Tai seems to be taking over Tai ’s body in the grownup timeline , a distressful exploitation if it proves straight .
A novel Antler Queen is crowned in the wild in Yellowjackets season 3 , episode 6 , confirming a long - bear theory about her from the cowcatcher episode .
This would explicate Tai ’s unemotionality to Lottie ’s death , her sudden craving for meat , and the fact thatSammy does n’t desire to see her inYellowjacketsseason 3 . The last point is especially damnatory , since Sammy can tell the remainder between Tai and her alter ego . And Other Tai is connected to the Wilderness , so her front would make sense of grownup Tai ’s impulsive behavior and want to make a sacrifice in the beginning in the time of year .
The real Tai is likely the one screaming , while Other Tai put her back to rest .
to boot , Other Tai being in the driver ’s buttocks would make sense of the calls for help , asit seems like the literal Tai is attempt to break devoid from her control condition . It ’s not clear how this back - and - forth is take place , but the real Tai is likely the one screaming , while Other Tai puts her back to sleep . you could even see the abrupt duty period in her expression that indicate going from one character to the other .
How Was The Real Tai Able To Call Van In Yellowjackets Season 3 Episode 6?

In addition to screaming for help , instalment 6 ’s phone call to Van support the theory that Other Tai is in control . However , it rear a lot of dubiousness about what Other Tai is , where she ’s keeping the real Tai , and how their dynamic works . The panel is still out on whetherYellowjackets’many oddities are really supernatural , but installment 6 leans into the possibility . After all , it ’s hard to understand how Van receives a call from a landline headphone that is n’t plugged in . And it ’s grueling to see how Tai made that call , then appeared in the room moments subsequently .
One of the liberal mysteries in Yellowjackets has to do with " Other " Tai , who often takes control of the lineament during pivotal mo .

It ’s almost as though the tangible Tai makes that call separately from her alter ego , potentially suggesting she ’s in another dimension or has the power to control technology . The latter option would also excuse why the brightness flicker just before the telephone rings . It ’s all very reminiscent of a horror movie , and it makes me think Other Tai is more than a demonstration of Tai ’s hurt . She seems to be a wholly different entity with supernatural origins .
How Long Has Other Tai Been Taking Over Tai’s Body?
Likely Since The End Of Season 2 Or Beginning Of Season 3
If Other Tai is rightfully taking over Tai ’s eubstance inYellowjacketsseason 3 , this also go away us to wonder how long she has been around . We know she ’s present in time of year 1 , butit seems unlikely that the existent Tai is miss for the intact adult timeline . It ’s possible she resurfaces at theend ofYellowjacketsseason 2 , which would explain why Tai is so unforced to participate in the hunt where Natalie dies . There ’s also a chance she fully drive over at the beginning of season 3 .
It seems like either Natalie ’s demise or the guilt of accidentally killing a waiter may have flip the switching and let Other Tai in .
After all , the real Tai is probably the one who returns to pay the bill at the eating place she and Van skipped out on . But Other Tai is almost in spades the one who suggests that Van ’s wellness improvement is due to the Wilderness — and that they should do another hunt because of it . It seems like either Natalie ’s death or the guilt trip of unintentionally killing a waiter may have flipped the switch and let Other Tai in . Hopefully , Yellowjacketsseason 3 will offer more insight into what ’s really going on , but one matter is certain : Tai is n’t all veracious .
