This article contains spoilers for season 2 “Wednesday”.
For the Addams Kooky, Ooky and Spooky family, a macabre disappearance looks like their idea for a good time. This is perhaps why “Wednesday”, the Netflix series which is the first program “Addams Family” of that time, is not stingy to bang its characters. In the same way that anyone in the show can be a suspect, given all the capacities of horror creature and the bad blood between parias and standards, anyone could become a victim too. The first season saw a number of people killed in the hands of the monstrous Hyde hiding in Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan). Although Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) finally dropped her crush on the boy and put an end to his unleashing, Tyler still hides in the intestines of Willow Hill Sanitarium in Jericho, Vermont, during the second season of the show.
Tyler rises on his old deadly things at the end of this first batch of four episodes, but he is far from being the only killer hiding in and around Nevermore Academy. During this second year in Nevermore, Wednesday is to face an Avian, someone who has the capacity to control birds: Judi (Heather Matarazzo). Surprisingly, Judi is not a pariah, but a norm that has received anoignable powers thanks to clandestine experiences on the parias that his father, Augustus Stonehurst, led to Willow Hill. Judi uses his feathered friends to commit macabre murders during the second season, but there is also another deadly creature that is also hiding: the voracious zombie than Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez) inadvertently resuscitated, which he calls Slurp (Owen Painter). Between these three unleashed monsters and a few shenanigans, season 2 of “Wednesday” presents a handful of dead from major characters, and the only half of the season! Here, they are all, in chronological order, for your bad fun.
Galpin and his cohort meet a murder of crows
The great revelation of the first half of the second season concerns the mystery at the heart of Willow Hill, who is the project of the former Stonehurst Professor known as the laws (Long Term Outcast integration study). After Stonehurst lost her head trying to transform into a pariah “da Vinci”, his daughter Judi not only resumed the project, but decided to use her new avian capacities to prevent others from tripping on the truth. One of the unfortunate souls to cross paths with Judi is a private investigator named Carl Bradbury. He happens to be on a mission that takes pictures of a local Jericho couple having an affair when Judi unleashes his murder of crows over him, trapping him in his van and trapping him into pieces. Carl was a cop and worked in close collaboration with the ex-sheriff, Donovan Galpin (Jamie Mcshane).
It turns out that Carl and Galpin have personally continued their investigation into Laws, a subject of which Carl was windy and spoke to his former Galpin boss to give a new interest in Galpin for the well-being of the outsets, thanks to his son, Tyler, being one. Galpin tries to ask for Wednesday help in the investigation, but before she could make a lot of progress, he too is brutally killed by the crows of Judi. In fact, Galpin undergoes a particularly macabre spell, because he seems to have been stunned from the inside by the killer birds. A death which, even like Alfred Hitchcock, would be disturbed!
Slurp makes a food frenzy
A sepreciary of Wednesday’s investigation into Avian, his brother Pugsley rises on his own shenanigans, while he accidentally brings an ex-a former student who had been buried under the skull to life as a zombie. Name his new mute (and hungry) Slurp for pets, Pugsley makes his roommate Eugene (Moosa Mosfa) his confidant to feed Slurp while keeping him secret. However, a voracious zombie cannot remain secret for a very long time. Tearing himself from his channels, Slurp escapes on the Jammore Grounds One Rainy Night, and the first snack he finds is in the form of the driving instructor of students Gabe Packard, who had been unhappy after being literally taken for a journey on Wednesday. After meeting Slurp, Gabe has no worries, because he has no more mind.
The same thing ends up being true of another unhappy normie, the Cadet Master of Phoenix Ron Krueger (Anthony Michael Hall). After being accidentally reserved for Camp Jericho with the students of Nevermore and lost a “Color War” match at school, Krueger tries to save his face with his troops by planning to invade their campsite at night and rush them. Unfortunately, Pugsley and Eugene brought Slurp with them during their campsite trip, and instead of helpless students, Krueger finds himself faced with a hungry zombie. As such, he is suddenly and permanently more the brain of his operation.
Thornhill returns … and goes out just as quickly
One of the most pleasant surprises of the first half of season 2 “Wednesday” is the return of Marilyn Thornhill (Christina Ricci), also known as Laurel Gates. The ancestor of the father of a founding pilgrim of Jericho, Thornhill unlocked the Hyde within Tyler in order to continue the heritage of his family to kill all the outsets. She also asked for revenge on Wednesday and the Addams clan for their part in the death of her brother, Garrett (Lewis Hayes). At the end of the first season, it appeared that Marilyn may have perhaps perished, but season 2 reveals that she had survived and that she had been incarcerated in a separate installation of Willow Hill in order to separate her and Tyler. When Dr. Rachel Fairburn (Thandiwe Newton) finds himself incapable of reaching Tyler for treatment, she was reluctantly transferred to Thornhill to Willow Hill, something that the woman is too impatient, believing that this will allow her to regain control of Tyler and continue her idiots.
Tyler, however, has other plans, and they do not seem to include Marilyn. While Tyler certainly came to take revenge on Wednesday, his colleagues parias, and roughly the entire population of Jericho, he is not interested in falling under the control of Thornhill. When Wednesday and Uncle Fester (Fred Armisen) release the patients and make all the hell stand out from Willow Hill, Thornhill stands out and releases Tyler during chaos, only to discover that there is no lost love between her and Tyler. With the shields of Hyde perforating her body, it seems very unlikely that Marilyn will be a thorn in progress alongside Wednesday, nor to anyone else.
The Faculty of Willow Hill is eloquent
In addition to Thornhill and Tyler standing out, SLURP – which had been briefly brought to Willow Hill after the jericho camp incident – also finds himself released, and the zombie immediately takes advantage to start snacking as many people as he can get their hands. However, he no longer seems to be unleashed without thinking, because each successive brain he consumes seems to resume his own brain. This can be seen when he meets Dr. Fairburn and the Mute Stonehurst paraplegic, who tries to escape while the installation turns into Bedlam. Initially, Slurp attacks Fairburn, launching into the brain of the poor woman in the middle of her darling office.
Perhaps Fairburn learned and academic the brain gives Slurp the additional juice to finally recover the power of speech, because while the zombie turns his hungry gaze on Stonehurst, he speaks. “Hello, old friend,” he said, just before taking a healthy skull chompage. Obviously, although we have more than probably seen the end of Fairburn and Stonehurst, we have much more to learn about our new PAL Slurp (including what its real name could be). Given his comment, it seems possible that Slurp meets Judi, who is almost tear up by the victims of laws and other patients of Willow Hill, but seems to free themselves on Wednesday another day.
Woe is Wednesday
After the disappearance of Thornhill, the most shocking most shocking death at the end of the first half of season two “Wednesday” is itself on Wednesday. After helping the patients laws to escape, Wednesday is suspended to have a face to face confrontation with Tyler. As usual, Addams show no fear, but perhaps he should have shown a little, because a few moments after the Hyde and the girl meet, Wednesday’s body was thrown out a window on the ground of Willow Hill, meeting the ground with a deaf noise. The narration of the voice on Wednesday also confirms her fatal status, explaining how she continues to hear the words of her mother Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) warning her of the way she worsened things.
Of course, it is likely 99.9% that Wednesday will be saved from this fate at the start of half of season 2, when the latter batch of four episodes will be presented on September 3. For the moment, however, it seems that the ultimate death in “Wednesday” the season two so far is the main character itself. If there is a deeper irony, it is probably this Wednesday, the lover of everything that is depressing and macabre, would not have otherwise.
“Wednesday” season 1, the first part, broadcasts on Netflix.
