“There’s No Harm In Changing Things Up:” Wednesday Season 2’s Enid Tease Is A Good Sign For The Show’s Best Relationship

As Wednesdayseason 2 inches closer and closer, more information has come out about what to expect from the new installment, including a transformation for one of the show's best characters, Enid. Three years ago, Wednesday premiered on Netflix to almost immediate acclaim. The show, which is based on the iconic Addams Family franchise, combines mystery, horror, and young adult drama to create a compelling story about Wednesday Addams, a teenager solving mysteries at her boarding school for outcasts. Now, Wednesday season 2 will raise the stakes in various interesting ways.

There is little doubt that Jenna Ortega's Wednesday Addams is the heart of the series. She perfectly embodies the character, fleshing her out in ways that no Addams Family project has been able to do before. Yet, what may be even more important than Wednesday herself is her relationships to others. One particularly moving bond she forms in Wednesday season 1 is with her bubbly werewolf roommate, Enid. At the end of Wednesday season 1, the girls are officially friends, leaving many to wonder how their dynamic will develop in season 2.

Why Enid's Transformation Makes Sense For Wednesday Season 2

Though Wednesday season 2 is still months away from its premiere, audiences have gotten a hint at Enid's future via an interview Ortega and Emma Myers did with Variety. Myers explained how she felt nervous returning to Enid after such a long hiatus between seasons 1 and 2, but fell back into the character easily. Then, she revealed that, either way, "there's no harm in changing things up, because Enid has changed over the summer."Ortega followed this up by saying that Enid's "a bit more of a badass this time around."

In just a few sentences, Ortega and Myers have hinted at a significant change for Enid in Wednesday season 2, and it is both exciting and totally understandable. The magic of Wednesday and Enid is the fact that they are complete opposites. While they are unlikely friends, their differing perspectives help the other to become better. Enid's kindness makes Wednesday softer and more vulnerable. Clearly, season 2 will now show the opposite effect, as Wednesday's fearlessness allows Enid to become braver.

Based on Ortega and Myers' comments, it seems likely that Wednesday and Enid will be particularly close in Wednesday season 2. Presumably, if Enid is feeling braver this season, she will likely become Wednesday's partner in crime in whatever new mystery is at play, meaning that Wednesday will no longer be a lone wolf. There will probably be fewer secrets between them, and their friendship will allow both girls to grow in new and intriguing ways. In Wednesdayseason 2, Wednesday will finally get the Watson to her Sherlock.
