Tag: wednesday season 2

Wednesday Season 2’s final chapter picked up with our favourite goth girl waking from her coma. She is met by the deceased Principal Larissa Weems, who returns as her guardian spirit. Meanwhile, most of the outcast patients who escaped Willow Hill are hunted down, leaving only three survivors – Uncle Fester, Pugsley’s resurrected zombie friend Slurp and a female patient whom Wednesday rescued.

Wednesday continues to be haunted by visions of Enid’s death. Without her psychic powers, she feels helpless. Her grandmama Hester tells her that the late Nevermore professor Rosaline Rotwood may hold the key. Wednesday reads the inscription on her grave to temporarily regain second sight and the ritual summons Rotwood’s spirit, played by the iconic Lady Gaga. However, the ritual does not go as planned. When Wednesday’s friend Enid Sinclair interrupts her attempt, the ritual misfires, leading to an epic body swap. We get to see several comical moments, including Enid in Wednesday’s body wearing colourful dresses and dancing to BLACKPINK before the spell is reversed.

Enid’s Alpha Werewolf Phase

Enid learns that she is an Alpha werewolf. While Alphas can shift outside the full moon, it comes with a risk. Once they transform into a werewolf on a full moon night, they might not be able to come back to their human form.

Wednesday’s pursuit of truth brings her face-to-face with grim secrets. It is revealed that Pugsley’s pet zombie Slurp is a former Nevermore student, Isaac Night, who was once Gomez Addams’ roommate. He once built an outcast-reversal device to cure his sister Francoise’s Hyde condition. The device later falls into the hands of Augustus Stonehurst, who uses it for his experiment on outcasts. It is also revealed that Francoise is actually the patient that Wednesday had rescued from Willow Hill. Oh, and she also happens to be Tyler’s (Wednesday’s biggest adversary) mother!

Secrets of the Addams

Through her visions and flashbacks, Wednesday learns that Gomez and Isaac were once close friends during their time at the Nevermore Academy. Young Isaac requested Gomez to use his electrical powers to help cure Francoise. However, Isaac wanted to steal his power and didn’t mind almost killing him in the process. Morticia finds out and destroys Isaac’s machine and killing him in an explosion that follows. They bury Isaac beneath the Skull Tree and keep mum about the incident under pressure from Stonehurst. She also severed Isaac’s right hand, which gave birth to Thing!

Now united with Francoise and Tyler, Isaac once again tries to cure his sister of her Hyde condition and abducts Wednesday’s brother, Pugsley, for it. But Francoise wants her son, Tyler, cured instead of her. Following hints, Wednesday reached the Skull Tree to confront Isaac and stop his experiment. He overpowers Wednesday with Tyler’s help and buries her alive. Enid, who had been confined in the Lupin cages to prevent herself from wolfing out, runs to Wednesday’s help and transforms herself into a wolf, knowing well that she cannot turn back. The finale ends with her running into the woods. Later, towards the end, Wednesday is seen reuniting with Uncle Fester to look for Enid, as per her promise to her friend.

With the help of her friends and allies, Wednesday succeeds in stopping Isaac and also frees Tyler, instead of killing him. Tyler and his mother, who are now both in their Hyde forms, battle it out. In an attempt to stop Tyler, Francoise falls to her death, leaving him alone once again. Thing, on the other hand, shows where his loyalties lie and rips Isaac’s clockwork heart from his chest, killing him. He then detaches himself from Isaac’s body and returns to the Addams family.

After Francoise’s death, Nevermore Academy’s music teacher, Isadora Capri, offers to help Tyler as she is setting up a support system for Hydes. She reveals that her father was also a Hyde, and she wants to create a community for Hydes where they will not need any masters to control them.

While it seemed that Wednesday was able to save Nevermore, her friends, her family and herself, the last scene delivered the final chill. Her aunt Ophelia, who was mentioned several times in the second season, was finally shown in a glimpse. Wednesday’s grandmother, Hester, actually had Ophelia in captivity all along. We see her sitting in a room with “Wednesday must die” written clearly on the wall, setting the stage for darker events and more complicated Addams Family secrets.
