[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like how the therapist phrased that point for him. Something like, “You thought she’d be more gettable when she was weaker.”

I can tell that I read into things a lot, because I thought the reason that the therapist cried after Jamie left, was because she was relating to what happened to Katie, the victim. I thought it was “triggering” for her. Loved that actor’s performance and the character, even though I was reading this wrong.

I think Briony understood then that Jamie was a settled issue in many ways. He dehumanized Katie and he dehumanized her. There were flashes of the bright kid he was mixed in with the misogynist.

I have a daughter around the same age and I live in a very well-off liberal area, and I hear a lot of boys with the same attitude at different events and pickups. I have no idea what they’re listening to or how they’re watched or what social media they have. But it’s not good. And I’m not predicting any of them will do something like this. The ambient, the shift in what’s okay, it feels new, and bad, and I think the show creators tapped into that essential problem even if it’s all framed around a horrific and still relatively extreme scenario.[/quote]
