Yellowjackets
This article contains discussions of stillbirth and grief.
Lottie says a prayer of sorts to honor these characters and the Wilderness.
And when she comes to Shauna’s baby,she simply calls him “The Child.
However, this scene is more devastating than it initially seems.
Lottie calling Shauna’s baby “The Child” is a reminder that Shauna never names him.
Shauna is too busy worrying about the baby latching in the dream she has duringYellowjacketsseason 2, episode 6.
Instead,the Yellowjackets' ritual makes it seem like he belongs to the Wilderness.
By calling him “The Child,” Lottie further emphasizes him as a sacrifice.
This is just as clear when she rejects the crown that Akilah makes for her inYellowjacketsseason 3’s premiere.
