It's a massive upset going into Season 3, because it puts the girls at the true whim of the wilderness. Though we don't see him commit the act, we see Ben pick up matches and firewood just before the girls awake to the cabin burning down around them. While he'd formerly seen her as an ally, it's clear that bond is broken after Natalie informs him that she let Javi die in her place. There were other ramifications for Lottie's choice too, as Ben (Steven Kruger) - who had earlier attempted to recruit Natalie to live with him under Javi's tree - angrily watches on as Natalie takes her new role as leader. Who Burnt Down the Cabin in the Yellowjackets Finale? ![]() We could see them do something similar when it comes to the Antler Queen mantle, perhaps as a way for them to separate themselves from responsibility for the growing number of deaths. The big question now though is whether or not Nat will be the last person to hold the mantle, as we've already seen the group draw cards to choose who to sacrifice. That would explain her deep guilt in the present, and why she's always saying that she didn't deserve to survive. And as she's fully on the "wilderness chose" train to assuage her of her guilt for letting Javi die, we can expect to see a lot more wilderness sacrifices next season. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter Sophie Thatcher confirmed Nat is the Antler Queen, for now at least. It's very clear that from now on they'll do anything Natalie says. The girls and Travis (Kevin Alves) all swear fealty to Nat, literally bowing down to her after Lottie does the same. That all changes in the Season 2 finale though, as after the tragic death of Javi (Luciano Leroux), Lottie (Courtney Eaton) selects Natalie to become the group's leader. Her identity was a major mystery in Season 1 that was never answered, but it was mostly put on the backburner in Season 2 as the show expanded its scope and set up larger conflicts. In case you don't remember who or what she is, the Antler Queen was the masked antler-wearing overseer of the opening sacrifice of the show's first episode. There were two massive Natalie reveals in this episode: First, the finale confirms that Nat is the Antler Queen in the wilderness era - which we did see as part of Nat's vision in Episode 5, but chalked it up to a dream. What Happened to Natalie in the Yellowjackets Finale? ![]() So strap in as we throw ourselves into the snowy forest and dig into that juicy finale and what it means. As the finale went on it expanded on her role in the woods and brought a tragic end to her story in the present. But the real meat of the episode - pun absolutely intended - concerned both present and past Natalie (Juliette Lewis / Sophie Thatcher). There were huge wilderness reveals, a shocking death in the present day, and even a surprising but useful criminal cover up. The Yellowjackets finale has finally arrived and it was even wilder than we could have imagined.
