My kid got an email at school from some teacher* about a free camera and video gear giveaway. It’s a widow donating her dead husband’s gear. We only have to pay for shipping. It took me WAAAY too long to recognize this is totally a scam. *Sent from a student’s hacked email, posing as a teacher!

Is there an overall plot to the TV show Yellowjackets? Is there a big plan for the story? Do they know where they’re heading? Or are they just making it up as they go?
