In season one, this hope manifests in Laura Lee (Jane Widdop), a very religiousgirl with a basic understanding of planes. Interestingly enough, while her faith is placed in God, the faith of the Yellowjackets is within Laura Lee. Laura Lee becomes the show’s literal Basil Hallward — with her death, the Yellowjackets literally cannot return home, and hope naturally dies alongside her. As captain of the soccer team, Jackie is the emotional regulator for the Yellowjackets while they’re still in their home state of New Jersey. Much like Laura Lee and Basil Hallward before her, Jackie and her death symbolize a point of no return.
