Wednesday season 2 ending theory: Is Barry Dort just a decoy? Fans speculate entry of a new principal at Nevermore in season 3
Wednesday season 2 part 1 recap: Chaos returns to Nevermore
The second season kicked off with new powers, more danger, and Wednesday seeing dark visions once again. The Addams family returned in full force. Pugsley's electric abilities were revealed, and Uncle Fester played a key role. But things quickly went off the rails. A mysterious murder took place. Tyler, the Hyde, escaped from captivity. And in the final moments of Episode 4, Wednesday was thrown out of a window, bloodied and unconscious, while Tyler disappeared into the forest.
Wednesday also lost her powers this season. After seeing a vision of Enid's death, her psychic abilities faded, leaving her vulnerable and confused. The season left that thread hanging, too, no answers, only questions.
The Principal theory: Fans say Wednesday season 3 will introduce a new leader at Nevermore
After Larissa Weems died at the end of Season 1, Nevermore got a new principal in Barry Dort (played by Steve Buscemi). But fans aren't convinced he'll stick around.
One theory on Reddit says, 'Weems was clearly gonna die. The current principal is an antagonist, so he's not gonna stick around for long. We'll almost certainly get a new principal come next season.'
Another user believes he's a decoy villain: 'I think he's the cop-out antagonist who hides the real one of the season, but I think he's still going to die.'
These theories have gained traction because Dort hasn't built real trust with viewers or students at Nevermore. His shady behaviour, odd decisions, and tense dynamic with Wednesday make fans feel like his time is limited. Plus, if Tyler returns to wreak havoc again, Nevermore will need stronger leadership or someone darker.
Tyler's Return: Redemption arc or bigger villain?
Season 2, Part 2's teaser shows a chained Tyler in Willow Hill hospital. But he's no longer just a teen hiding a secret. He's dangerous, unhinged, and planning something. Many think he'll rise as the show's big villain again.
Some fans still believe in a possible redemption: 'Wouldn't be surprised if they tried to redeem Tyler, maybe even give him a twist like saving Wednesday.' But others see no way back: 'He literally killed people. Redemption shouldn't be on the table. He'll be the main villain again.'
The teaser shows him face-to-face with Wednesday, and it's intense. His future could go either way, but one thing's certain: his presence will shake Nevermore again.
What to expect in Wednesday season 2 part 2?
Part 2 of Wednesday Season 2 is set to return on September 3, 2025, with even more mystery and supernatural drama. Fans are expecting big answers, especially around Wednesday's powers, Tyler's fate, and what's happening at Nevermore Academy. Whether the school gets a new principal or not, one thing is clear: something is brewing behind those gothic walls.

Optical illusion: Only those with 20/20 vision can find the hidden bobby pin in this puzzle. Can you spot it?
The internet is buzzing once again with a new optical illusion which could leave even the most eagle-eyed viewers stumped. Amid the repeated maze of black, white and grey threads of the carpet, users have to find a small bobby pin and spotting it is no easy feat. This optical illusion challenge, which was shared on Reddit, has accumulated hundreds of likes and many comments from online users who dove into the puzzle with gusto, determined to find the elusive hair accessory. The catch? The bobby pin is the same color as the carpet and is concealed perfectly. The optical illusion challenge was shared in the subreddit 'Find the Sniper' and was ranked difficult in level of complexity. Posted by Accomplished Carrot, the user wrote, 'Finally, something to post: find my bobby pin.' The user shared a photo of the floor of an indoor workspace carpeted with a dark grey patterned texture. The carpet has a subtle geometric design and also shows snippets of black chair wheels and white objects resembling the legs of a desk or table. Hidden among it all is a tiny bobby pin that the users need to find. Several users commented below the Reddit post, with some saying there's no way they could find the bobby pin, while some accounts were elated they spotted the accessory without looking for responses in the comments. 'Haha, there is no way. What,' a user wrote reacting to the task, while another one quipped, 'I feel like finding the will to live would be easier than finding this, lmao.' An account, who found the bobby pin, wrote, 'Found it before reading the comments! Oh yeah!' Did you find the bobby pin? If you have not, this user cracked the code: the bobby pin is nestled between the intersection point of the imaginary lines connecting the two distinct wheeled chairs spotted in the photo. Thanks to its slim build and metallic color, the pin seamlessly blends into the busy background. Optical illusions are beneficial since they enhance understanding of visual perception and sharpen cognitive skills. A user wrote, 'Found! Kinda where the two wheels would meet if the leftmost wheel had a straight line to the right that meets the bottom wheel if a straight line that shoots straight up.' Experts say optical illusions are beneficial since they enhance understanding of visual perception and sharpen cognitive skills. They also promote critical thinking and problem-solving abilities since people have to analyze and decipher the deceptive images presented to them. A: They offer a quick dopamine hit, test attention to detail, and are a fun, competitive way to engage with others. A: Subreddits like r/FindTheSniper or puzzle-focused Instagram pages frequently post similar visual challenges. A: Look for patterns that break the visual flow. Slight color or shape mismatches often reveal hidden items. A: Yes. They can sharpen your focus, improve visual memory, and enhance pattern recognition skills.

Wednesday Season 2 Part 1 Ending Explained: Did Jenna Ortega's Character Survive Tyler's Attack?
Wednesday season 2 part 1 is out on Netflix, and the fans are loving the return of Jenna Ortega as her iconic character. Following the season 1 cliffhanger, the Addams family has returned to unearth the mysteries and dark secrets. With a new string of murders emerging, it is on Wednesday Addams to save herself and the people around her. Ortega reprised her role in the newly released season, alongside Emma Meyers, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Fred Armisen. Moreover, the music sensation Lady Gaga will also make a cameo appearance in the upcoming bunch of episodes. Wednesday Season 2 part 1 ending explained In the final episode of Wednesday season 2 part 1, titled If These Woes Could Talk, Wednesday, along with her grandmother, heads out to the graveyard to analyze the ashes of the supposed outcasts buried there. The duo discovers that the urns had no human remains in them and asks her Uncle Fester to infiltrate Willow Hill and look for Lois. On the other hand, Wednesday's protégé, Agnes, gets to know that the outcasts' fake death certificates were signed by Augustus Stonehurst, who initially taught at Nevermore and then went on to become a doctor at Willow Hill. Meanwhile, following the bird attack at Nevermore that almost kills Thing, Wednesday chases a hooded shadow, believing it to be the murderous Avian. As for Thing, he breaks into Willow Hill and asks Fester to look for Stonehurst. While the latter is found, Stonehurst is now old and nonverbal. However, his talking parrot provides Fester with key information and the list of numbers to find Lois. As the drama escalates in the final moments of the 4th episode, Wednesday tries to walk the mysterious outcast away from Willow Hill. In the process, she crosses paths with Tyler in his full hyde form. While the woman walking beside Wednesday escapes, Hyde picks the other one up and throws her out of the window as the police arrive. The audience witnesses Wednesday's bloodied body on the ground, as the voiceover claims, 'I've always dreamed of looking death in the face. But in my final moments, all I hear is my mother's words ringing in my ears: Maybe I have made everything worse. Much worse.' Wednesday season 2 part 2 will be dropped on Netflix on September 3, 2025.
