7 Burning Questions ‘Wednesday’ Season 2 Part 2 Needs to Answer

Too many strange things have happened in Wednesday’s season 2 volume 1 finale, and now the show needs to resolve some issues before dropping yet another cliffhanger for season 3.
It’s been a week since Wednesday’s second season officially kicked off on Netflix, and the wait of just one month feels like an eternity when it comes to all the problems that the series needs to resolve in the upcoming second part.
Scheduled for a release on September 3, Wednesday’s season 2 volume 2 doesn’t have much time to waste for explaining everything that volume 1 has teased all along.
Apart from the question of Enid’s fate, Wednesday has to reveal more about the LOIS program, Tyler’s future, the main villain’s possible appearance and more — here’s our own wishlist.
1. What Is Principal Dort Up to?
Initially appearing as a new headmaster positive about making Nevermore great again, Principal Dort now seems to be someone with darker intentions.
In the second season’s first four episodes, it’s revealed that Dort won’t stop at anything and use Bianca for swaying Morticia Addams to get bigger donations for the school. It’s either Dort’s own ambitions that drive him to the edge or rather his choice to work for someone else and hiding this from everyone at the moment.
Whatever the case, his behaviour is suspicious enough to call him a pretty possible villain of the story.
My take: definitely a future villain.
2. Who Is Isadora Capri, Really?
Nevermore’s new music head and proud werewolf, Isadora first created a suspicious aura around herself by making cryptic comments about Wednesday’s musical skills.
Things get to look more serious when she appears to be out of breath as if someone was chasing her all the way up at the staircase, right after Wednesday makes an attempt to catch the Avian Outcast in the school.
Even if she has nothing to do with what is happening right now in Willow Hill, Isadora is still suspicious enough to be considered another potential threat to Wednesday.
My take: she's hardly a villain, because that would be too obvious. I suspect, however, that she will be connected to Lady Gaga's character, Rosaline Rotwood.
3. Will Wednesday Get Her Power Back?
In the second season, Wednesday seemingly runs out of her psychic abilities after using them way too much and crying black tears every time she’d do so.
When she feels like she can find a solution in Goody’s book, Morticia comes in her way and will likely burn the book in the upcoming volume 2.
With no other means to know how to retrieve her power, Wednesday might be doomed to continue her investigation without using her superpower, but that would just be boring — which is why there should be something that helps her get her ability back.
My take: she will definitely get her power back, but with some sort of an upgrade... or a future threat.
4. Will Slurp Become a Human At Some Point?
When Wednesday’s brother Pugsley discovers a reanimated body in the woods and decides to call it Slurp, the creature has nothing more but a skeleton and desire to eat everyone’s brains.
However, as he keeps making this wish come true, it seems like he does transform into someone more human-looking, appearing in Willow Hill as a pretty normal zombie by the time episode 4 ends.
Since eating others’ brains means growing his own, Slurp might be heading towards turning into that legendary genius again in the second volume.
My take: if handled correctly, Slurp's story may become one of the show's most dramatic and impactful arcs.
5. What Will Tyler Do After Being Set Free From Willow Hill?
Things cracked at Willow Hill so hard in episode 4 that there wasn’t a single person who would dare recapture Tyler aka the Hyde again, meaning that he will be somewhere in the woods again now.
It’s also clear that Tyler will try to revenge Wednesday and other outsiders in Nevermore, so his visit to the school is expected after Wednesday recovers from falling out of Willow Hill’s window.
My take: I can see why the theory of Wednesday becoming Tyler's new master is appealing, but I'm not sure if I'm ready to support it yet.
6. Did ‘Wednesday’ Really Introduce Ophelia Addams?
When things go crazy in Willow Hill’s asylum, Wednesday discovers a woman imprisoned there and tries to take her out of the facility.
What makes this woman different from other creatures locked up in the LOIS basement is that she looks and acts normal, which might mean her superpower might not be connected to major physical changes.
Before that, Morticia Addams tells Wednesday that her aunt Ophelia was sent to Willow Hill after something happened to her psychic powers. Since Ophelia should still be in Willow Hill by the time the storyline unfolds, Wednesday might have just in fact met her estranged aunt.
My take: I'm not sure whether Ophelia's figure is a red herring or a Chekhov's gun. But I will be mad if they ruin this storyline.
7. Will Enid Die?
Wednesday’s entire investigation is kicked off by her vision of Enid’s grave, a one-eyed crow flying around and Enid’s voice blaming Wednesday for her best friend’s untimely death.
With the Hyde now free and possibly hiding somewhere in the woods to bring Enid to justice as well, the latter can’t be closer to paying for everything her roommate has been up to all this time, though it’s still unlikely that the series will kill off one of the most beloved leads after all.
However, if it does, Wednesday might get another reason to investigate more of Nevermore’s dark secrets in the upcoming season 3.
My take: look, if a main character's death is being used in marketing, it almost never means they are actually going to be killed off for good, because that would be too on-the-nose. Even if Enid does "die", it might as well happen in another vision, in an alternate reality, or she will be brought back to life quickly. Wednesday will lost its charm without Enid, and in my opinion, this show can't afford that right now.
