Yellowjackets Season 3 Uncovers the Pit’s Shocking Origin Story

by

One of the most intriguing enigmas in the show Yellowjackets revolves around a character from its very first scene – the girl with dark hair who tumbled into a pit while sporting Jackie’s necklace, famously known as “Pit Girl.” Fans are eager to uncover her identity. However, the initial two episodes of season three fail to reveal this mystery, leaving us wondering, “Who is Pit Girl?” The show Yellowjackets does provide a glimpse into what could be that notorious pit in episode one of season three, offering an intriguing backstory for this significant location. Although we’re still unaware of how the pit ended up in the woods of Yellowjackets, we do learn how the team stumbled upon it.

In episode one of season three of Yellowjackets, we find out that Coach Ben managed to make it through the harsh winter. He’s been setting traps for small game and keeping a low profile because he knows the girls might try to harm him if they see him. One fortunate day, while wandering around, he stumbles upon a hidden cache of wooden planks in the ground. Upon breaking them open, he uncovers a pit filled with various emergency kits packed with food and essentials. After figuring out a way to transport these containers to his hideout, he conceals it once more, planning to use it as bait for deer. This discovery of the Yellowjackets’ hidden cache brings us one step nearer to a potential murder.

During Yellowjackets’ season three opener, Shauna and Mari’s ongoing disagreements escalate at dinner. Natalie steps in and separates them by ordering both to stay in their tents following an argument. Mari believes this punishment is unjust, as Shauna provoked the fight by spitting in her soup. Frustrated, she marches into the woods in a rage. Unfortunately for Mari, she stumbles into a previously hidden pit. It’s been suggested that Mari could be the Pit Girl from the initial scene of Yellowjackets, but we think the show would be more subtle than that. However, it’s worth noting that the series often employs subtle foreshadowing.

As a die-hard film enthusiast, I can’t help but ponder over the intriguing characters in Yellowjackets, specifically Gen and Mari, both brunettes who could potentially be the elusive Pit Girl, apart from Lottie, who miraculously survived the woods. The close call with the pit that Mari had in the early episodes of season three has left me questioning her role as Pit Girl even more. Could it be that the mystery of Pit Girl’s identity will be unveiled later this season? Or perhaps we’ll get more hints and red herrings about Pit Girl throughout the season. Regardless, the introduction of the pit in the first episodes of Yellowjackets season three seems to suggest its significance will come to light as the season progresses.

The following morning, Coach Ben assists Mari in readjusting her dislocated knee. He devises a method to aid her escape from the trench before holding her captive. His actions can be rationalized given the girls’ confusion, believing he is responsible for the house fire. At present, Coach Ben remains uncertain about his plans for Mari, but he is adamant that the girls must not learn of his current residence. Meanwhile, it’s clear that the Yellowjackets girls will eventually uncover the trench and install lethal traps within it, serving both as hunting tools and potential weapons against each other.
