honestly, i think the timing of the pitgirl scene resets our assumptions of how many adult survivors there are

people assume the 8 survivor theory based off the feast they had in the pilot, but when mari is revealed to be pit girl, there is clearly more than 8 girls currently alive

do i think all of them survive? no, cause just when you dont think they get worse, they get worse

but i definitely think it opens up the opportunity for the writers to include more survivor adults in the adult timeline

jeff as the guy that started shauna's descents

in the teen timeline: jeff as the conflict point (via cheating/pregnancy) between jackie and shuana -> fight between shauna and jackie -> jackie's death (i am purposely ignoring their nuanced dynamic rn)

and also shauna and jeff's baby dying -> the switch in shauna's kickstarting her sprialing

in the adult timeline: blackmailing her and the other yjs -> almost all the adult timeline events -> like killing adam and feeding melissa her arm to name a few

the fact that the teen yj's had to deal with that crushing emotional rollercoaster of hope->despair twice now and both times were punctuated with a death. like laura lee's death and her flying that plane to hopefullu get some help and then that hope exploding in front of their eyes. and then seeing the scientists and a guide and then that guide being brutally murdered (hope literally being killed again) in front of them and then mari dying (idk the actual timegap between these 2 events but i figured they were close enough)

and like the radio(tansponder?) as the 3rd signal of hope. like can we talk about how brave natalie is to try to get it to a place where a signal can be reached after hope is (literally) killed in front of her and it not be a guarantee that it works? but then it does work and the intense feeling of relief she must have felt when it reached someone

thinking about nat as the leader. the one that hunted and fed them during the first summer/fall, the one whose leadership resulted in building huts, gathering furs, and building an animal pen(?), the one who always tried to do her best for everyone including mercy killing ben, and then the one that literally hikes in the winter to gain elevation to call for help and made the plan for it to happen

they really would have died without her

travis being like "my favorite thoughts are jackies... the slumber party makeouts? the jealousy" and jackieshuana BUT ALSO there is no fucking way travis martinez, teenage boy, could have possibly known about the slumber party makeouts (!!!) unless jackie's somehow one with the wilderness and everytime he gets high he literally hears/senses IT

[ellemest]

the implications of callie being crazier than her mother (after seeing how unhinged shauna is in the wilderness this season) is 👀

[ellemest]

shuana wanting mari's hair after like messing around with hannah's is giving serial killer trophy energy

id also be terrified if the crazy group of teenagers that had just axed a man in the fucking head also had a fucking gun. like can you imagine how much fear they must have had???

[ellemest]

something about nat and shuana teaming up to track and hunt down hannah just hours after shuana was about to kill nat for mercy killing ben without the group's approval
