I Now Believe The Theory That “Other” Tai Was The One Who Burned Down The Cabin
Other Tai Comes Back Into Focus In Yellowjackets Season 3
One of the most striking facial expression ofYellowjacketsseason 3 ’s " Did Tai Do That ? " sequence is the " Other " Tai , the version of the fictional character that takes over when she sleepwalks . After the group decides to vote out Coach Scott through the liberation police squad method acting , they use their pack of cards of cards to shape who will take the shot . Tai start out the King of Hearts card , meaning she has to vote out Ben . Interestingly , Van suggests that Other Tai be the one to shoot Ben if that side of the lineament can be activated , which plays into the growing hypothesis that Tai burned down the cabin .
Akilah has a imaginativeness and says Coach Ben Scott is a " bridge " in Yellowjackets time of year 3 , episode 5 , but what does this visual sense really have in mind ?
Tai initially struggles to activate the " other " side of herself until the present moment leading up to perpetrate the trigger to kill Ben . Lottie , Travis , and Akilah stop the execution , but it ’s important to recognise the Other Tai ’s willingness to harm others when her cognisance has been use up over . We ’ve seen her do pretty flaky things while sleepwalking , like when Tai ate dirt , andOther Tai ’s restoration inYellowjacketsseason 3now gives me more understanding to conceive it was that version of the character that embark on the cabin fire in season 2 .

Maybe Tai Doesn’t Even Know She Burned Down The Cabin
If Tai really did attempt to burn the cabin down with fellow survivors indoors , the enigma would then shift to why her " other " ego require to destruct the only tax shelter and potentially pop the radical . Of naturally , I ca n’t bestow up Tai withoutYellowjackets ' Man with No Eyes , a mystical figure that ’s been relate to the character since the starting time . Though season 3 let out the figure ’s origination , it ’s potential a sight of the Man with No Eyes manipulate Tai into starting the fire while she was sleepwalk .
Maybe it was the wilderness ' way of screen the group , but needed Other Tai to light the fire , figuratively and literally .
Yellowjackets ' Man with No Eyes backstory was disappointing , but there ’s still a prospect the mysterious facial expression is somehow connected to the wilderness . Burning down the cabin forced the survivors to basically start over with their endurance journey . perhaps it was the wild ' way of screen the radical , but require Other Tai to light the fire , figuratively and literally . The fire obviously put the group in instant danger , though it seemed like the independent goal of whoever caused it was to get them back to a more vulnerable site in the wild .
