Spoilers for 'Yellowjackets' Episode 3 'The Dollhouse'

'Yellowjackets' made sure there's nothing subtle about the steamy sex in the series although it significantly tones it down in episode 3 titled 'The Dollhouse'. One of the storylines in the chapter is about Shauna (Melina Lynskey) following her husband Jeff Sadecki to confirm her suspicions of him having an affair. Having been proved right, she begins to plan her next move and catch him red-handed, only to run into Adam (Peter Gadiot) who's been making flirty moves since their encounter in the previous episode.

Shauna attempts to make her way into the hotel and poses as a Homeland security agent labeling Jeff as a "motherf****r" who's been giving the slip, and that this was her chance to nail him. Adam interrupts and draws her away from and the duo grabs a drink while she notices that Jeff and Bianca, the woman he has an affair with, walk out of the hotel together. What follows next is Shauna and Adam having a hook-up. It's pretty much revenge sex at this point, but that doesn't suggest that Jeff is in the clear.

'Yellowjackets' Episode 1: Was Misty a cannibal even before the horrific plane crash?

The previous episode saw the couple try and work things out with the therapist recommending frequent sex to build the strained chemistry. It works to a certain degree, but with his affair being exposed, things took a turn for both the characters. Her relationship and with Adam will be one of the storylines moving forward.

Killing has been one of Shauna's traits that were observed in episodes 1 and 2 and perhaps, her uncontrollable anger just might see her kill Jeff over the course of the episode. Or will there be a twist in the tale and she ends up killing Adam instead just to make herself feel better? She did that to a rabbit in her garden.

What are your thoughts on Shauna's traits moving forward?

'Yellowjackets' airs Sundays at 10 pm ET on Showtime.
