The larger issue at hand? Tyler (Hunter Doohan) is free, and he&#8217;s already murdered Thornhill (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/person\/christina-ricci\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Christina Ricci;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Christina Ricci<\/a>) and launched Wednesday out of a second story window.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;The beast inside has overwhelmed him,&#8221; co-creator Miles Millar says. &#8220;It&#8217;s always good when you do kill people of significance \u2014 it&#8217;s the fun that we have with people&#8217;s expectations. We were very focused on making sure the season was compelling and didn&#8217;t want to get complacent or rest on our haunches in terms of really wanting it to be bigger and better than season 1.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">However, Wednesday&#8217;s fate is not nearly as dire as Thornhill&#8217;s. \u201cWell, the show\u2019s called <em>Wednesday<\/em>, so that\u2019s the biggest clue we\u2019ll give,\u201d Millar says.\u00a0And then there&#8217;s the fact that she&#8217;s been shown in both a preview of Part 2 and in <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/wednesday-season-2-part-1-cover-story-jenna-ortega-exclusive-11786309\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:EW's exclusive Part 2 images;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">EW&#8217;s exclusive Part 2 images<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">But that doesn&#8217;t mean she&#8217;s safe with the Hyde on the loose. &#8220;Now you&#8217;ve let out Tyler, and he&#8217;s very plainly stated what he wants to do. So I think that&#8217;s something else that then needs to be dealt with,&#8221; Gough says. &#8220;And then who is he without a master? He&#8217;s the ultimate wild card, and Wednesday is responsible for that. It&#8217;ll all have ramifications.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As Doohan puts it, \u201cHe\u2019s free. He\u2019s out in the world again.
