In “Qui,” Callie proves her eagerness to get in on the cover-up during a scene that cross-cuts between separate interrogations of her and Shauna at the police station. Call her the Paige Jennings of Yellowjackets. Since learning her mother killed an innocent man, Callie has taken on much more complexity in season two, going from “typical bratty teenager,” as Desjardins describes Callie, to willing accomplice. But Sarah Desjardins’ Callie, the daughter of adult Shauna ( Melanie Lynskey) and Jeff ( Warren Kole), occupies an unusual role: She’s the only major teenage character in the present-day timeline, an intriguing counterpoint to the girls surviving 25 years in the past. Most of Yellowjackets’ teen characters spend the bulk of the series trapped in the middle of the Canadian wilderness.


Spoilers ahead for “ Qui ,” the sixth episode of Yellowjackets season two.
