The Best Yellowjackets Quotes

Shauna: Have you ever peeled the skin off a human corpse? It's not as easy as you might think. It's really stuck on us. Skin. You have to roll back just the edges of it, so you can get a good enough grip to really pull. Which again, isn't easy. People are always so sweaty when you kill them. Just like, oily. There's a look people get, when they realise they're going to die. It's that one. My hand wasn't shaking because I was afraid. It was shaking... because of how badly I wanted to do this.

Teen: It must be hard being this jealous all the time.
[Shauna chuckles]
Teen: What? You're so fucking jealous of me, you can barely breathe.
Teen: Are you quoting Beaches at me right now?

Suzie: [on the voicemail of Natalie's phone, as Natalie is being kidnapped] Natalie, fucking call me, goddammit. What the hell have you gotten into? Look, I did what you asked. I dug into Travis's bank account and found out who emptied it. I think someone's following me. Who the fuck is Lottie Matthews?

Crystal: That wasn't the first time I've eaten a person.
Crystal: I actually absorbed my identical twin in the womb.

Shauna: [to Callie] And speaking of that curfew you're so eager to be free from, get ready to have a different kind of cramp on your weekends because there is no one lonelier than a recent divorcee. You will be spending your Friday nights in your Dad's sad little apartment eating cold pizza on the sofa you know he cries into. And after a few months of that, just when you start to think "Oh, okay, Dad's taking a little bit better care of himself now," get ready because that is when he is going to come to you for dating advice. Which, I don't doubt you'll be able to give him because most of those girls will be about your age. But hey, you're the one holding the trump card here.

Teen: Our devices leave us captive to other people's priorities

[scoffs]
Teen: You know, Jason Russo screwed half the girls on the volleyball team-what does that make him?
Teen: He's a dude and... he's not the one with his hand on my...
Teen: No. You do not get to judge me, dude. The '50s called, they want your dumbass attitude back. Welcome to 1996. Our vaginas have, like, monologues now. And newsflash: girls like to do stuff, too. You don't have a monopoly on that. Like, why is it your job to want to do it and my job to say no? Why do you get all the wants and needs? Who made up that stupid fucking rule, anyway?
Teen: Okay, okay. Jesus. I'm sorry.
Teen: You gonna tell me how many girls you've been with?
Teen: No. Um...
Teen: [scoffs] Seriously? Why the fuck not? Well?
Teen: Because it's none, okay?
[pause]
Teen: I've never done it before.
Teen: Oh.

Callie: So, here's the deal. I don't have a curfew anymore. And any Ubers into the city are going to be no questions asked. Or else... I'll tell Dad.
[whispering]
Callie: About your new boyfriend.
Shauna: Honey, have you ever heard of mutually assured destruction?

Teen: I don't even know who you are any more.
Teen: Or maybe you never did.

[Taissa and Shauna are about to enter their 25th high school reunion]
Shauna: How is it possible that is the most scared I've been all day?
Taissa: [laughs] Right? "Oh, my God! Oh, hey, girl. Hey! It's been forever. What have you been up to? Tell me."
Shauna: Um, yeah. You know, gardening, PTA, dismembering my lover's corpse.

Teen: You're lucky, you know. Shit is gonna get a whole lot worse out here. But you're already dead, so... way to make everyone jealous of you one last time. I'm sorry for what we did. Who knows? Eating you could be the reason why we survive the winter, so... thanks. Rest in peace, Jackie.
